"Atmosphere" is a song by the band Joy Division. It was originally released in 1980 as a France-only single under the title Licht und Blindheit with "Dead Souls" as the B-side.
Following the death of lead singer Ian Curtis, "Atmosphere" was released as a double-a sided single with "Shes Lost Control". "Atmosphere" was the A-side for the UK release but the B-side for the US release. "Shes Lost Control" is an alternate version from the one that appears on the debut album Unknown Pleasures.
The single was re-released in 1988 to coincide with the release of the compilation album Substance which contains both tracks.
The single peaked at #1 in New Zealand in August 1981, and it would later re-chart there in July 1984 (#17) and when it was reissued in August 1988 (#5). "Atmosphere" also Read full article at wikipedia.org
