Released: April 10, 2006

Songwriter: Martin L. Gore

Producer: Ben Hillier

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
Oh, you sad one
Playing the angel
Isn't so easy where you're from
Oh, you wild one
Devil's companion
You won't stay satisfied for long (You won't stay satisfied for long)
(You won't stay satisfied for long)
(I don't understand the failiure to..)
(I don't under... be someone else for me)
(I don't understand the failiure to..)
(Failiure, don't...)

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
Oh, you dark one
Eternal outsider
Caught in the spider's web you've spun
Oh, you blind one
Gentle and kind one
Seeing the world as a loaded gun
(I don't understand the failiure to..)
(I don't under... be someone else for me)
(I don't under... be someone else for me)
(I don't under... be someone else for me)

[Coda]
(Stay as you are, the darkest star)
(Stay as you are, silent for me, majestically)
(I don't understand the failiure to..)
(I don't understand)
(I, I, I don't understand the failiure to..)
(I don't under... be someone else for me)

Depeche Mode

Depeche Mode are recognized as one of the most artistically influential bands of the late 20th century. Commercially, they have released 14 studio albums to date, and sold more than 100 million records. Their most recent album, Spirit, hit the streets in March 2017.

The band got their start in Basildon, Essex in 1980, and named themselves after a French fashion magazine. They rose to fame with hits that have become “Just Can’t Get Enough” (1981), “Everything Counts” (1983), and “People Are People” (1984), to name a few. One of their most famous concerts was at the Pasadena Rose Bowl in 1988.

Martin Gore has been the band’s primary songwriter since Vince Clarke left in the early 1980s (and went on to form Yazoo and Erasure). Alan Wilder replaced Clarke on keyboards in 1982, but left in 1995 (reinvesting his creative energy in his band, Recoil, which he had started in 1986). Since then, the band has comprised frontman Dave Gahan, multi-instrumentalist Martin Gore, and keyboardist Andy Fletcher—all of whom are original members.
