Depeche Mode - Dreaming Of Me

'Dreaming of Me' is the debut single by Depeche Mode, originally released on February 20, 1981 in the UK. The single was not commercially released in the United States.

Two mixes of the song have been released, one which fades out, and one which does not. The alternate version is on the CD re-release of Speak and Spell in Europe, while the American Speak and Spell (and all singles compilations containing the song) has the regular version. The re-release of Speak and Spell in 2006 also features the no-fade out version, and was released in all regions.

The B-Side, 'Ice Machine,' is similarly available in a fading version, and an alternate non-fading version. The song is also a bonus track on the CD rerelease of Speak and Spell in the UK. The 1986 and 2006 re-releases of Speak and Spell use the no-fade out version. A live version of 'Ice Machine' (recorded during the Some Great Reward tour) is available on the 12" version of the 1984 single, 'Blasphemous Rumours.'

Due to a poor chart placement (number 57 on the UK singles chart), 'Dreaming of Me' did not originally appear on Speak and Spell, but did show up in the CD re-release in the UK as a bonus track. In the United States, 'Dreaming of Me' was on the original pressing of the album, replacing 'I Sometimes Wish I Was Dead.' On the 2006 re-release of Speak and Spell it was placed at the end of the album, with the original U.K. tracklist preceding it.
