    New Order - “Ceremony” (Live, 1981)

    I’m at a juncture in life where I am now comfortable declaring this fey bit of British sadpop as one of my all-time favorite songs.

    When Sara and Ev’s bridal party walked down the aisle to a gentle, slowed-down arrangement of this on acoustic guitar and cello, I just about bawled.
