All these years on I still can't get my head around Martin Gore writing something as bonkers as 'Shouldn't Have Done That'... and then sticking it on a supposedly teen pop LP. Guess it was obvious in retrospect Depeche were gonna move in a very different direction
A Broken Frame was Martin Gore's debut as a songwriter, wasn't it, so as you say, probably shouldn't have been a surprise they changed direction? I always thought it very accessible though.
