<blockquote>"At the end of the track, Dave asks the audience how they're doing. That what can be heard on the recording is pretty much everything that he said on stage. He never gives long speeches during the concert and that's good, I think. When I went to see Prince's last concert, I was disappointed, because he kept repeating that he loved London, that it was a fabulous place. I bet the next day he said the same thing in Amsterdam or Paris."

Notes

Dave Gahan said in the commentary track on the DVD of '101' in 2003:

"When I hear the songs now, like this one especially, I really hear in Mart's words what a big influence Iggy Pop has on him. This song, 'Nothing', was like 'Dirt' from The Stooges or something."

When Depeche Mode was interviewed about the songs on the '101' CD for the April 1989 issue of French magazine 'Best', Andy Fletcher said (translated from French):

"At the end of the track, Dave asks the audience how they're doing. That what can be heard on the recording is pretty much everything that he said on stage. He never gives long speeches during the concert and that's good, I think. When I went to see Prince's last concert, I was disappointed, because he kept repeating that he loved London, that it was a fabulous place. I bet the next day he said the same thing in Amsterdam or Paris."
