Today in Depeche Mode History 'The Meaning Of Love'.
TV performance at WWF Club for the WDR in Germany 1982.
"The Meaning of Love" is the fifth UK single by Depeche Mode released on 26 April 1982 and recorded at Blackwing Studios.
The single version of "The Meaning of Love" is the same as the album version from A Broken Frame. The "Fairly Odd Mix" is an extended version with electronic experimentation added to the original mix.
The B-side is "Oberkorn (It's a Small Town)", an atmospheric instrumental written by Martin Gore as an intro for the A Broken Frame Tour, in the town of Oberkorn, Luxembourg. A longer version called the "Development Mix" features an ambient intro followed by the original song, and afterwards has a new arrangement of music.
The video for "The Meaning of Love" was the second video with Alan Wilder, although he did not contribute to the song. The director was Julien Temple. The video was not included on the Some Great Videos VHS compilation because it was not well-liked by the band.
The single was not released in the United States, but the 12" "Fairly Odd Mix" of the song features on the B-side of the "See You" US 12" single.
