![]() Ultra (1997) [ larger cover art ] |
Here is a song from the wrong side of town
Where I'm bound to the ground by the loneliest sound
That pounds from within and is pinning me down
Here is a page from the emptiest stage
A cage or the heaviest cross ever made
A gauge of the deadliest trap ever laid
And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong here
The heat and the sickliest sweet smelling sheets
That cling to the backs of my knees and my feet
But I'm drowning in time to a desperate beat
And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong
Feels like home
I should have known
From my first breath
God send the only true friend I call mine
who pretend that I'll make amends the next time
Befriend the glorious end of the line
And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I've found
That I belong here

| metod (Canada) | Posted: Dec 18, 2012 - 15:49 Kudos to RP for playing this song...love it. |
| Euskadita (MX) | Posted: Nov 17, 2012 - 07:03 I think I'll upload the whole song. This is one of my top 5 Depeche Mode's tunes |
| Shesdifferent (Just visiting this planet) | Posted: Sep 15, 2012 - 09:18 Made me look |
| igwanna (Maintou Springs, CO) | Posted: Apr 10, 2012 - 07:53 Wow, sounds like a Michael Bolton song. I love the 'Mode, but this will have to grow on me, if it ever plays again. My first negative post! I've got a case of the Mondays a day late... |

Sometimes it's so bad it's like going to a showing of "Titanic" but they cut it off right after Kate and Leo are bumping uglies. |
| tutakea | Posted: Dec 05, 2011 - 08:27 thank you... for not playing this again! lousy song, really embarrasing... |
| Bridieboo (Halifax, NS) | Posted: Nov 03, 2011 - 17:55 Love it! |
| Blackdalhia (Beijing) | Posted: Oct 03, 2011 - 04:21 maybe the best DM album, born in difficult times for the band, but wow : excellent from A to Z, Thanks RP for playing this ! can we have "it's no good" next time ? Or "Insight" which is not well known but fantastic

| Cynaera (Kenneth's Frequency) | Posted: Sep 01, 2011 - 18:51 Dear people who are bitching because this isn't a full cut: Bill and Rebecca work with what they're given. They don't pull rabbits out of hats. If there's a better version of a song, UPLOAD it. Life doesn't always give us what we want, but unless we pitch in and try, we can't expect anything other than what we get. P.S. - I love this song, and I had no idea it should have been longer. Sounded just fine to me. |
| cosmiclint (Vancouver BC) | Posted: Aug 01, 2011 - 08:47 Nice groove this afternoon. Happy Civic Holiday/Family day, Canadians who observe it. |

| krysthal (Toronto, Canada) | Posted: Jan 24, 2011 - 10:58 Ending still cut off, but great to hear one of my all time DM favorites. Funny thing, while listening to The Church "Ripple" (played immediately before) made me wonder why Radio Paradise wasn't playing more Depeche Mode, and on it came! So Bill, yes, I heard the same similarities between the songs. |
| amaynard (The Moon) | Posted: Jan 24, 2011 - 10:51 damn, second song ever on RP that made me turn my speakers off. Nice work |

| Photo-John (Nor Cal to SLC) | Posted: Nov 22, 2010 - 09:15 Near the top of my most-hated band list. Does not sound like Slayer. |
| socalhol (Seattle) | Posted: Oct 21, 2010 - 17:16 ahhhhh, nice — one of my favorites, thanks! |
| Blackdalhia (Beijing) | Posted: Jun 16, 2010 - 04:26 yes that's killing end !! this album is one of my favorite, incredible sound by Flood, interesting piece of work despite Alan Wilder being gone and Dave Gahan's problem with drugs ..... hopefully music put him back on track with an excellent album ! thanks RP for playing that ! |
| Nuance (Winnipeg) | Posted: Apr 13, 2010 - 15:08 he sounds off key. |

If you can play all the long minutes of a Mike Oldfield track, surely you can spare minutes for all of a Depeche Mode track...
Very disappointed |

| Onatopa (Missoula, Montana) | Posted: Jun 24, 2005 - 01:21 Sounds like DpM |
| redeyespy (Sunny, FL) | Posted: May 25, 2005 - 16:20 Please tell me the rest of this album isn't this dull. Makes me want to pull out Black Celebration. |
| zephead64 | Posted: Apr 26, 2005 - 09:50 I'm really happy to hear this on here. Great song, too bad they cut out of it early and didn't play the whole thing. |

| serendipity_blue (New York) | Posted: Apr 26, 2005 - 09:46 Gonna bump it to an 8, just 'cause it's Martin singing. I think he has a better voice than Dave. |
