The ending of this song always has a haunting quality to it (even when I was listening to it back in 1984 at the age of 14). But for some reason, the synth trumpet finale brought out a few tears today. Great lyrics and still powerful song.
One of their best 12" versions of their singles they ever did, and one of my personal favourite DM songs. Bravo, Messers Gore, Gahan, Fletcher and Wilder.
Love these old DM 12" singles and really loved this one. I think my friend had a yellow vinyl of this disc. It was great collecting them back in the day. Great Post!
I remember being quite shocked at hearing the REAL piano and acoustic guitar break that starts @ 04:27. Whatever next, we thought at the time. Great, though.
