Temptation" and " Confusion" were re-recorded in 1987 specifically for Substance and neither of the original versions appears. Despite the classic 12” single’s gloomy reference to suicide, its juxtaposing synth lines got hips moving and record sales booming. Remarkably, ‘Blue Monday’ remains the best-selling 12” single of all time. In the UK alone, it has sold 1.16 million copies in all formats, including the 1988 and 1995 re-releases. The original 1983 12” constitutes most of that sum at just over 700,000 copies sold. The album is the band’s biggest selling to date, with over one million copies sold, going platinum in the UK with a Top 5 hit in True Faith which was accompanied by the seminal video, directed by French choreographer Philippe Decouflé.
