Dates where Nostalgia was played

Nostalgia has never been played live.

Notes

'Nostalgia' was written by Tom Anselmi and was produced, recorded and mixed by Vincent Jones for their band 'Mirror'. Vincent Jones was also a keyboardist for Dave Gahan during his in 2003. The song was released as a single in 2008.

Vincent Jones told Side-Line:

[...]"It was just incredible the day that Dave told me he would sing the track! Both Tom and I were thrilled. Dave is such an iconic singer, besides being one of the great singers and performers of our time, he is the most wonderful human being you could ever hope to have as a friend. Definitely more than a thank you and I think his performance is up there as one of his best. [...] Dave flew himself to Los Angeles to sing the track for us, after that was done Mike Garson agreed to play, and I moved all my gear to his house to record him. We recorded the tracks in 4 different studios and ended up mixing in Vancouver, it was a lot of work for 2 guys on a budget!"

Thomas Anselmi told Suicide Girls:

"Vincent played with Dave, and he sent Dave what we were doing and Dave really liked it, and we asked him to sing it. I really wanted something special for that song. I can sing that song, and it was kind of a natural song for me to sing, but, with me singing it, it didn't have that extra dimension that I was looking for. Of course Dave brought something I couldn't have been looking for. He has such an incredible style, but also there's the other part of it; it added something because of his history, and the fact that he is that to so many people, that a lot of people have so many memories that they attach to music that he's sung."
