Don't forget the chicken Caesar in New York and how he crushed that poor Irish girls dreams of waitressing on a Friday evening.

I'm pretty sure that was a Thursday afternoon.

And because she failed the Jack T test, she will never work during peak tip time.

This one doesn't do a whole lot for me but sign me up for the Dave Gahan heroin skin care regimen. That fool looks (and sounds) fantastic.

Perhaps he's in the Mac school of soap and cold water.

I like Martin Gore's manicure and fluffy white guitar strap.

See what you mean but I bet this one is a grower. Give it the car test as soon as the album comes out.

Yessss he does!

I like this one even better. The first one got a little boring after awhile. I take it this is DM, er, um, unplugged-like. If so, the finished track with drums and harmonies will be great.

I love Gore's chord changes on the guitar.

Ok, what is Fletcher doing? Making sure the gear is plugged in?

He is there strictly to clap out of synch with the music and he wasn't even doing that. I read somewhere that he freely admits he's pretty much there just to make ML Gore feel comfortable. In all fairness I'm sure they let him near some knobs once in a while.

The Wrong EP was availiable to buy from Itunes (UK & US) from midnight last night. The Thin White Duke mix absolutely kicks ass!

Thanks for posting this.

So far

In Chains - not usually a fan of minimalist music but Gahan's voice fills the song out. Love the chorus.

Hole to Feed - I'm gonna need some more time with this one.

Wrong - My feelings are known about this one.

Fragile Tension - A bit of the old, a bit of the new. Sounds great. I wonder if Gahan wrote this one.
