Stardust

Notes

Martin Gore told the May 2003 issue of D-Side magazine (translated from French):

"Basically, it's a song that goes back to my youth. I was never a big fan of David Essex, but I loved some of his songs, especially 'Stardust' which is probably my favourite, and which is about the decline of a rock star and his drug addiction. One could make a comparison to Depeche Mode, but this is not the reason I chose this track. It's a good song with plenty of emotion and it describes well, I think, the loneliness that can sometimes come with being a rock star. Of course it's an amazing job but it can also be a bit strange."
