About Blue Monday 12

The biggest selling 12" single of all time , Blue Monday was originally a compromise as New Order did not do encores so they wanted to appease the crowd by leaving sequencers playing when they left stage early.

What's interesting

All that die-cutting to make the sleeve resemble a 5.25" floppy disk led to Blue Monday making a loss on each copy sold. Never has air cost so much
