"Warsaw" is the opening song on the EP An Ideal for Living, written and performed by the British band Joy Division.
[1] It was slated for release on the planned debut album which was scrapped, although bootlegged under the name Warsaw.
The song references Rudolf Hess, Hitler's Deputy Führer, who flew to Great Britain in 1941 in an attempt to negotiate a peace between Germany and the UK.
[3] The chorus is a simple repetition of "31G", the first three characters of his serial number with "31" signifying the European theatre of war and "G" German, the nationality of the prisoner.
[5] "Warsaw" is featured in the video game Tony Hawk's Underground 2.
