She's Lost Control is een nummer van de Britse new wave-groep Joy Division.

De tekst gaat over een vrouw met epilepsie, een ziekte waar zanger Ian Curtis zelf ook aan leed.

Het nummer staat op Joy Divisions debuutalbum Unknown Pleasures uit 1979. Een jaar later komt het, in een andere, meer elektronische versie, ook uit op 12"-single samen met het nummer Atmosphere. Nog later wordt She's Lost Control nummer ook opgenomen op de compilatiealbums Substance en Heart and Soul.

"She's Lost Control" is a song by British post-punk band Joy Division. Released on their 1979 debut album, Unknown Pleasures, "She's Lost Control" was first performed live by the band in June 1978 and draws primary lyrical inspiration from a young woman experiencing a violent epileptic seizure.

Two separate recordings of the song have been released: the version appearing on the band's debut album, and an extended, more electronic version released in 1980 as a 12" single. This 12" single version contains an additional verse not present on the initial version of the song, and was recorded in March 1980 at Strawberry Studios, Stockport, making this song one of the band's last studio recordings prior to the May 1980 suicide of their lead singer, Ian Curtis. On the US release of the 12" single, "She's Lost Control" appeared as the A-side (with "Atmosphere" as the B-side), as opposed the UK version, where the song appeared as the B-side to "Atmosphere".
