Notes
Dave Gahan and Andrew Fletcher recalled the recording of 'Love In Itself' in an October 1985 interview with British magazine No. 1:
Gahan: "This is the s-s-s-s’s track. It had a very soft vocal, with a lot of s’s, it sounded awful. I was a bit disappointed with this, it could have been brilliant."
Fletcher: "We had a lot of problems with the equipment with this one, just trying to get that softness of sound we wanted without it all blurring was a real nightmare. It’s one that’s always good live, though."[1]
In this video in which the mastering process for the 2019 Singles box sets is explained, a test pressing can be seen that lists the song title "Cocktail" but is crossed out and replaced by the title "Love In Itself (4)".
Lyrics
Love In Itself
All of these insurmountable tasks
That lay before me
All of the firsts
And the definite lasts
That lay in store for me
There was a time
When all on my mind was love
Now I find
That most of the time
Love's not enough
In itself
Consequently
I've a tendency
To be unhappy, you see
The thoughts in my head
All the words that were said
All the blues and the reds
Get to me
All of the absurdities
That lay before us
All of the doubts
And the uncertainties
That lay in store for us
