"Never Let Me Down Again" is a song from the 1987 album Music For The Masses by Depeche Mode. It was released as a single on 24 August 1987.
Notes
In this 1988 radio interview, Andy Fletcher says that, although he can't give too much away about the meanings of Martin Gore's songs, he does reveal that 'Never Let Me Down Again' is "just about innocence."
Martin Gore was quoted in issue #44/1987 of Bravo Magazine:
"I wrote this song last March. And it was such a long time ago that I cannot say much about it anymore. But you're wrong [about the song being about my girlfriend], the song has nothing to do with relationships. It's about the concept of fleeing from reality and the evil awakening afterwards. Any kind of fleeing. Drugs, alcohol, or whatever."
Martin Gore in Rolling Stone magazine, 1993:
"There was one instance regarding 'Never Let Me Down Again' when two separate people came up to me after a show one night and said, "I really like that song". One of them thought it was a gay anthem and the other one thought it was a drug anthem. They both loved the song, so that's fine by me."
Martin Gore in Bong magazine issue no. 37, 1998:
"I think that 'Never Let Me Down Again' is one of our classic old time tracks."
Depeche Mode also said in the 2006 Music For The Masses Remaster DVD documentary:
Martin Gore: "'Never Let Me Down Again' was a stand-out track. It was especially effective when we played live."
Dave Gahan: "'Never Let Me Down Again' was a big song for us, and it still is live."
Andy Fletcher: "That was not a big hit, yet it became a real legendary Depeche Mode song."
Dave Bascombe: "'Never Let Me Down Again' was the one I was really, really pleased with. I was very involved with the drum sounds on that. The guitar intro, actually, was an accident. It was just down to the sequencers we were using in those days. That guitar was sampled, and it ran on the counting. That was the start of the track, but it wasn't supposed to be, and we just all went, "Oh, that's great!". So that was a happy accident. And I have always liked the track, and I was really pleased with the way it turned out."
Alan Wilder told Electricity Club in 2011:
Q: There was an article featuring producer Dave Bascombe which said that you used an EDP Wasp on 'Music For The Masses'?
A: Yes, that's true, it was used to create the famous bass sequencer parts in the Aggro mix of 'Never Let Me Down Again'. I think we used the Wasp and Spider sequencer and then probably sampled the result, as it isn't MIDI controllable. We may have been able to sequence it using cv/gate – I can't quite remember.
When Depeche Mode was interviewed about the songs on the '101' CD for the April 1989 issue of French magazine 'Best', Dave Gahan said (translated from French):
"For me, this is one of the most intense moments during the concert, firstly because this track has a very strong emotional charge, and every time I play it the waving goes well with the crowd. In addition, we were heading towards the end of the show and during this song, the stadium was on fire. When I saw the number of people there, I felt like crying. It was very moving."
Alan Wilder also wrote in his 86-98 editorial in 1998:
"Primarily programmed at Alan's house, the basic demo was restructured to emphasise the chorus in an attempt to improve the overall flow of the track. It displays a blend of distinctive musical components and devices - some old Mode and some making their debut. Most notably, 'Never Let Me Down' illustrated the inaugural use of sections of live performance as opposed to just single notes being sampled and manipulated - best demonstrated by the distinctive opening guitar riff, which was originally played by Martin then heavily processed using a number of effects. There was also significant use of real orchestral sounds such as strings and horns as well as Led Zeppelin drum samples to flesh out the backing. Says Alan: "It also stood out as an obvious single and suggested a 'Stripped'-like feel. It has a very definite anthemic quality which is especially demonstrated when the song is performed live and the whole audience wave their hands in unison at the end - a Depeche high-point I think.""
Dave Bascombe told Super Deluxe Edition in July 2019:
"That's the one [song] that hit me when I first heard that demo, I thought that's just fantastic. My sole contribution, well not my sole contribution – this is before we got to Paris, we were round at Alan's house – and I said "Right, I want to use 'When The Levee Breaks' [Led Zeppelin] drums on this." I know that it's been used 10 billion times now, but they were still quite new then and I'd always loved those drum sounds and as I say they weren't a cliched thing then, so I suggested using them for the main kick and snare. But I actually loved that track, still do."
He also told Vaughn George (part 1, part 2) in April 2020:
"I think [samples at the end of 'Never Let Me Down Again' were] sampled from Carmina Burana. We'll probably get sued, though, for saying that. I'm pretty sure it was sampled from that. [...] The tom-toms are a combination of the toms from Stripped, mixed with some other samples. [...] The guitar [intro] we did at PUK [Studios]. It was probably [first] a synth part, then we thought, "Let's just do it on guitar. I think I went out and set the amp up and messed around with a few effect pedals. I was just mucking about, and I remember them and Daniel [Miller] going "Yes!" And then we put it through a synth, Daniel's ARP 2600, and altered it a bit more. But the happy accident was: Martin had played this [guitar part] a few times, and we picked the best one, and then we put it in the Synclavier because that was the best quality sampler we had. And then you record it back into the track by triggering it. And the way you have to do it is, there is a flashing light, and you have to press it right before you want it, and then it would trigger the thing in time. So I was prepared to do this in all the various spots where it was supposed to happen in the song. But what I had forgotten was that this thing would trigger by itself right at the beginning of the song automatically. And off it went. And that was obviously meant to be. It was a lovely moment, because we all looked, "Wow, just perfect"."
Alan Wilder says about that guitar riff in 2010:
"That's still one of my favourites, and it's clearly still a live favourite as well. It's a really good guitar riff – guitar sound and riff. I think we put it through some kind of filter and re-recorded it back in, then sampled it. It's just got a great sound. I remember there was a rap group called 3rd Bass that sampled that riff and then put it over a rap rhythm. I always liked their track as well."
Lyrics
Never Let Me Down Again
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
He knows where he's taking me
Taking me where I want to be
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
Promises me I'm safe as houses
As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers
I hope he never lets me down again
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
Never let me down
Never let me down
Never let me down
Never let me down
See the stars, they're shining bright (Never let me down)
Everything's alright tonight (Never let me down)

Self-made samples | |||||
Sample | Notes | Audio | |||
Guitar elements | In a 4 July 2019 interview with Super Deluxe Edition, Music For The Masses co-producer Dave Bascombe recalled the recording process for the guitar riff:
|
||||
Lead melody | The lead melody is comprised of a plucked guitar-like sample combined with a vocal-like pad with a short loop (itself derived from a non-looped sample that is layered with another vocal-like sound to intensify the final four bars of each verse section in "I Want You Now"). The resulting voice is mixed with reverb to produce the textured, "roomy" effect heard on the album version of "Never Let Me Down Again". For live use, the part is played back comparatively dry.
Other notable appearances of the guitar-like sample include a two-note fill during the verses of "Strangelove", the lead melody heard throughout the "Spanish Taster" mix of "To Have And To Hold", and a verse melody in "Blue Dress". In addition to its use in "Never Let Me Down Again" and "I Want You Now", the aforementioned solo vocal-like pad is also heard during the chorus sections of "Nothing". |
||||
Exploding firework | An exploding firework sound originally sampled for use with "Stripped" is occasionally played on the final note during live performances of "Never Let Me Down Again". Other notable uses of this sample include the final moments of "Pimpf", where it is layered with a large female-esque choir stab and played several notes down from its original key. | ||||
Synthesizer elements | A synthesized bass layer audible throughout "Never Let Me Down Again" is likely derived from the PPG Wave 2.3 wavetable "031 Piano/Sax". Notably, A similar synthesizer bass drone originally recorded for use with "Policy Of Truth" is layered with this sound as it was performed during live performances on the 1993-1994 Devotional and Exotic tours. | ||||
Drum, tom drum elements | In an April 2020 interview, Bascombe confirmed that the tom drum fills heard throughout "Never Let Me Down Again" are comprised of the tom drum sounds originally recorded for use in "Stripped" layered with other drum samples.[2] Alan Wilder describes the recording of this sound in a 1998 editorial on Shunt, the official Recoil project website: "A hired drum kit was also set up in the large reception area of Westside and used to sample individual sounds, most notably the distinctive toms with their special ambience."[3] | ||||
Melodic elements, sampled wine glass | In May 2020, fan "DMK" kindly provided DM Live Wiki with documentation for a series of Emulator II floppy disks that accompanied a collection of restored studio equipment used by Music For The Masses producer Dave Bascombe during the production of music albums for artists other than Depeche Mode in the mid to late eighties. One floppy disk, labeled "Wineglass (106)", features an untitled preset ("NULL PRESET"), which contains a bell-like sample, presumably the sound of a wine glass being tapped. This sample is used to produce the textured arpeggio that occurs throughout the chorus sections of "Never Let Me Down Again". Notably, this sound is also used in "Behind The Wheel", "Route 66", "Strangelove", and the Recoil instrumental "Grain". |

Sample | Source | Status | Notes | Audio | |
Orchestral, choral elements | Carl Orff - Carmina Burana - I. Primo vere (In Springtime) - 5. Ecce gratum - Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Southend Boys' Choir, Brighton Festival Chorus - 1 February, 1976 |
|
"Never Let Me Down Again" utilizes two manipulated choral samples derived from a Royal Philharmonic Orchestra/Southend Boys' Choir/Brighton Festival Chorus performance of the fifth movement of Carl Orff's Carmina Burana. The performance, conducted by Antal Doráti on 1 February 1976, featured soprano vocals by Norma Burrowes, tenor vocals by Louis Devos, and baritone vocals by John Shirley-Quirk. The Latin words being sung within the samples include the final moments of the lyric "Hyemis sevitia. Ah!" ("The rigors of winter. Ah!").
In an April 2020 interview, Dave Bascombe described the technical challenge of manipulating the sampled audio for use in "Never Let Me Down Again": "I think it was Carmina Burana [...] It took ages getting it all in time and in tune. [Nowadays] that's a piece of piss."[2] |

Drum elements, bass drum, snare drum | Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV - "When The Levee Breaks" - 1971 |
|
In a 4 July 2019 interview with Super Deluxe Edition, Bascombe recalled how the sampled percussion came to be used in "Never Let Me Down Again": "We were round at [Alan Wilder’s] house – and I said 'Right, I want to use "When The Levee Breaks" [Led Zeppelin] drums on [Never Let Me Down Again].' [...] I suggested using them for the main kick and snare."[1] | Click to display/hide audio example | |
Drum elements, snare drum | New Order - Low-Life - "Love Vigilantes" - 13 May 1985 |
|
The second of four snare drum hits audible in the opening moments of "Love Vigilantes" by New Order is utilised throughout "Never Let Me Down Again". Similarly, this snare sound is used throughout "Stripped", "Breathing In Fumes", "Christmas Island", and "Nothing". | Click to display/hide audio example | |
Brass elements | E-mu Systems - Emulator II factory library disk #63: ARP 2600 - SAMPLE 3 |
|

Brass elements | E-mu Systems - Emulator II factory library disk #21: Assorted Trombones - SAMPLE 13 |
|
A looping trombone sample derived from Emulator II factory library disk #21 "Assorted Trombones" is utilised throughout the chorus and outro sections of "Never Let Me Down Again". | ||
Orchestral elements | E-mu Systems - Emulator II factory library disk #08: Cello & Violin - SAMPLE 8, SAMPLE 16 |
|
Two cello and violin samples derived from Emulator II factory library disk #08 "Cello & Violin" are layered to form an octave with a sound previously recorded for use in 1986's "A Question Of Time" to form the pizzicato-like phrases audible during the second chorus section of "Never Let Me Down Again". | Click to display/hide audio example | |
Drum elements, tom drum | Emulator II OMI Universe of Sounds Volume 1 - "Track Kit" - SAMPLE 3 |
|
A manipulated tom drum sound derived from the Emulator II OMI Universe of Sounds Volume 1 voice "Track Kit" is layered with a custom tom drum sound (originally recorded for use with "Stripped") to form the tom drum fills audible throughout "Never Let Me Down Again". |
