Notes

Daniel Miller told Electronic Beats in 2013:

"I remember Martin [Gore] was reading some weird book during the making of the record, a book of prophecies or something and he looked up his birthdate and it said, “Nothing to fear.” So that actually ended up being a track title, and it made him very optimistic about the future."
