"Breathing In Fumes" is a song recorded by Depeche Mode during the production of the 1986 album Black Celebration. It was released as a B-side on the 'Stripped' single on 17 March 1986.

Notes

In the documentary on the Black Celebration Remaster DVD from 2006, a little bit of footage by Alan Wilder of Martin Gore can be seen, singing the lyrics of "Breathing In Fumes". In another shot of old footage in the same documentary, Daniel Miller says that Martin had edited this song [rehashed from Stripped].

Gareth Jones said in this interview:

"We worked on that in Hansa as I recall. It's our remix of Stripped. You'd have the single version of that track, Flood's Highland Mix of the track and this was our own 12" mix of some kind. Because Flood had prepared what we'd have called the Extended Mix, we did our own experimental thing."

Lyrics


Breathing In Fumes

Nothing on this

I taste when we kiss

Come back to the land

For a few hours


Let me see you

Stripped down to the bone


Taste when we kiss

I taste when we kiss

You're breathing in fumes

I taste when we kiss


Let me see you

Stripped down to the

I taste when we kiss

I taste when we kiss


Let me see you

Stripped down to the

Come back to the land

Come back to the land


Let me see you

Stripped down to the bone


Breathing in fumes

I'm breathing in fumes

Breathing in fumes

You're breathing in fumes
