Notes

Andy Fletcher told the 1984-01-07 issue of Melody Maker:

"We went down Brick Lane and just hit everything and then recorded it and took it back to the studio and then put it into the keyboard. That's how we made the track 'Pipeline'. We was like smashing corrugated iron and old cars. The vocals were recorded in a railway arch in Shoreditch - you've got the train three-quarters of the way through and the aeroplane up above. It's really interesting doing that."

Dave Gahan also told the 1983-08-20 issue of Sounds:

"Well 'Pipeline' was very experimental in that every sound on there has been made from us just out on the street hitting things, recording it and playing it back in different ways – like, even the vocal was recorded in a tunnel!"

Lyrics


Pipeline

Get out the crane

Construction time again

What is it this time


We're laying a pipeline


Let the beads of sweat flow

Until the ends have met though

Could take a long time


Working on the pipeline


Taking from the greedy

Giving to the needy


On this golden day

Work's been sent our way

That could last a lifetime


Working on the pipeline


From the heart of our land

To the mouth of the man

Must reach him sometime


We're laying a pipeline


Taking from the greedy

Giving to the needy
