Dirty Sticky Floors Preview

I'm about to sample this new Dave Gahan single, "Dirty Sticky Floors". For those of you that don't know, Dave is/was the long time lead singer of Depeche Mode. I just discovered he has released a solo album. In fact I am listening to the Mp3 preview thingie right now. I think it sounds like the Michael Hutchence (INXS) solo album. It's not so great. The remixes seem to sound a lot better than the actual track. It didn't need to see the light of day. Then again, I only get to preview about 30 seconds of the song via the official website, so it looks like I'm *still* gonna have to crack open the 'ol Kazaa.

And what do you think of the new quasi-Depeche Mode single?

"Dirty Sticky Floors"
Written by Dave Gahan and Knox Chandler.

Waiting for the last time
For my friend to change my mind
Waiting for the last drop
Seems like a long long time
Maybe I should go back home
I'll sit and wait right by the phone
Praying over the porcelain throne
On my dirty sticky floor

Ask me what I want
Easy that's just more
How long will I wait for you
Twice as long as I did before
Standing in the freezing snow
Maybe you left I just don't know
I'll soon be lying on my own
On some dirty sticky floor

I hope no one can see me
The tin man says I'm doing fine
That lion ain't gonna get me
See that gun right there it's mine
I've painted a face where I burnt the floor
Now the face has become my devil's door
Laying in the back room
On my dirty sticky floor

On my dirty sticky..
