WRONG

I was going to write about my night off from mommyhood and what I did, but I have better stuff to type about.

Depeche Mode. My ex turned me on to them in 2003, and I've been in love with Dave Gahan's voice (and him....he's pretty damned hot for being almost 47 and an ex-junkie) ever since. I also need to send a shout out to Martin L. Gore for his vocals on "A Question of Lust" and "Home", one of my most favorite songs (EVAR!) by them. Anyway, they have a new CD coming out in April titled, "Sounds of the Universe". The single "Wrong" has already been released. The first time I heard it, I was like, "WTF is this? This doesn't sound like them at ALL!" The beats sounded off. Then I kept listening. And listening. And listening. I bought it from iTunes and listened some more. Then I dredged up the lyrics, and holy shit, this describes me! So now I'm claiming it as MY personal anthem (along with "It's A Sin" by the Pet Shop Boys). Here are the lyrics and video. I'm not sure if the lyrics are entirely correct, but they seem to fit, so hopefully they are right.

Before anyone asks, no, I am not getting paid to promote them. This song has really just gotten under my skin, and I love the hell out of it. Also, I am not a rabid fan, so I probably couldn't answer any pertinent questions about them until I asked my music guru.

"Wrong" -Depeche Mode (written by Martin L. Gore)

Wrong
Wrong
Wrong
Wrong

I was born with the wrong sign
In the wrong house
With the wrong ascendancy
I took the wrong road
That led to the wrong tendencies
I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
On the wrong day of the wrong week
I used the wrong method with the wrong technique

Wrong
Wrong

There's something wrong with me
Chemically
Something wrong with me
Inherently
The wrong mix in the wrong genes
I reached the wrong ends by the wrong means
It was the wrong plan
In the wrong hands
With the wrong theory for the wrong man
The wrong lies, on the wrong vibes
The wrong questions with the wrong replies

Wrong
Wrong

I was marching to the wrong drum
With the wrong scum
Pissing out the wrong energy
Using all the wrong lines
And the wrong signs
With the wrong intensity
I was on the wrong page of the wrong book
With the wrong rendition of the wrong hook
Made the wrong move, every wrong night
With the wrong tune played till it sounded right yah

Wrong

Wrong
Too long

Wrong
Too long

Wrong
Too long

Wrong
Too long

Wrong
Too long

I was born with the wrong sign
In the wrong house
With the wrong ascendancy
I took the wrong road
That led to the wrong tendencies
I was in the wrong place at the wrong time
For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme
On the wrong day of the wrong week
I used the wrong method with the wrong technique

Wrong
