"Let's Dance to Joy Division" is a song by The Wombats and the second single taken from their second album A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation. The song was available to download on 8 October 2007, and was physically released one week later. It is based on a drunken night when lead singer Matthew Murphy danced on a table with his girlfriend to "Love Will Tear Us Apart" by Joy Division at the Liverpool night club Le Bateau, and the cover art references that single's art. There is a hidden track on the 7" vinyl version of the single, when Tord Øverland-Knudsen sings the theme tune from children's television show Postman Pat in Norwegian. The song features on the BBC Three program "Scallywagga" as the theme tune.

“The deft white-stockinged dance in thick-soled
shoes! Denmark’s sanctuaried Jews!”

“If the technology cannot shoulder the entire burden of strategic change, it nevertheless can set into motion a series of dynamics that present an important challenge to imperative control and the industrial division of labor. The more blurred the distinction between what workers know and what managers know, the more fragile and pointless any traditional relationships of domination and subordination between them will become.”
—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
