The Song Stuck In My Head: “DAMAGED PEOPLE” by DEPECHE MODE (2005)
.
.. ..
… … …
“We‘re Damaged People…
…Drawn Together…
…By Subtleties That We Are Not Aware Of…”
…
“…Disturbed Souls…
…Playing Out Forever…
…These Games The We Once Thought We Would Be Scared Of…”
…
“…When You‘re In My Arms…
…The World Makes Sense…
…There Is No Pretense…
…And You‘re Crying…
…When You‘re By My Side…
…There Is No Defense…
…I Forget To Sense…
…I‘m Dying…”
…
“…We‘re Damaged People…
…Praying For Something…
…That Doesn‘t Come From Somewhere Deep Inside Us…”
…
“…Depraved Souls…
…Trusting In The One Thing…
…The One Thing That This Life Has Not Denied Us…”

“DAMAGED PEOPLE“
by DEPECHE MODE
…Is A Truly Skipped-Over AND Underrated Jam, My Peeps.
Truly AND Honestly.
It’s Very Odd.
It’s Very Quirky.
It’s Dark AND Brooding.
Yet, All The While, It Remains A Beautiful Song.
Period.
This Is Actually One Of My Favorite Songs From The Album “PLAYING THE ANGEL“…
…An Album Jammed With Favorites.
“PLAYING THE ANGEL” Was Released In 2005, With Most Reviews Saying This Particular Song Was One Of The Drags Of The Album.
People Just Didn’t Warm-Up-To-It Like I Sincerely Felt They Should.
Me?
I Loved The Entire Album, Including The Song “DAMAGED PEOPLE“, And I’m Quite Unsure Just How Many Times I’ve Listened To It.
It’s A Song That Gets My Brain AND Heart Churning AND Burning Overtime.
At This Moment, This Song Is Locked Into My Mind.
I’ve Been Listening To It The Bulk Of The Morning, And That Sincerely Prompted This Post.
Honestly, I’m Not So Sure What To Say.
I Have Something Written On Paper, But I’m Slowly Realizing I Don’t Really Think I Should Say To Y’all Everything It Actually Says.
I Think I Made It TOOOOOO Personal.
Just Know This, My Peeps…
…I’m Dedicating This Post To Someone.
The Other Inspiration For This Bloggin’ing.
THE SPARK.
Everyone, Whom Works In A Creative Field, MUST Have A SPARK.
Period.
A Muse, If You Will.
Something/Someone That Inspires You.
Something/Someone That Makes You Want To Work.
Something/Someone That Brings You Great Joy In Life.
I Have One.
You (likely) Have One.
So, Tell Me, My Peeps…
…WHAT/WHO INSPIRES YOU???
WHAT/WHO MAKES YOU WANT TO WORK???
WHAT/WHO BRINGS YOU GREAT JOY IN LIFE???
Please Let Me Know, My Peeps.
To Say I’m Curious Is An Epic Understatement.
I Want To Know What Makes You Feel Like Doing This Kind Of Thing, Or Any Kind Of Thing, Regardless Of What It Is.
I Know What Makes Me Happy.
I Know What Makes Me Sad.
I Know What Inspires Me.
I Know What Makes Me Keep Coming Back For More.
So, What Does It For YOU, My Peeps???
Anything???
Anything At All???
There MUST Be SOMETHING???
Right???
RIGHT!!!
😀

This Quotation Is Dedicated To THE SPARK.
THE SPARK Who Keeps Me Grounded, By Constantly Reminding Me To Keep My Cool.
THE SPARK Also Knows When I Need To Be Built Up; To Allow My Head And Heart To Soar!
It’s Exceptional Advice, My Peeps.
Especially For Someone Like Myself Whom Always Seems To Leave His Cool In His Other Pants.
Life Is Loaded With Balance, IF One Is Lucky Enough To Find It.
Of Late, I Have Been So Lucky.
So Very, VERY Lucky.
Can Anyone Truly Ask For More?!
Nah. I Didn’t Think So, Either.
😉 😀
I’ve Been Putting Pen-To-Paper So Much…
…I’ve Nearly Lost Myself Here.
I Don’t Mean To Neglect Y’all, My Peeps, But I’ve Been Trying To Take Things In A Whole New Direction.
New For Me.
New For You.
New For Us.
My Fire…
…My Drive…
…My Want…
…My Need…
…My Desire…
…They’re All Returning.
Returning Harder And Faster Than I’d Honestly Known Was Even Possible.
I Was Burning-Out.
The Fire Had Seriously Dimmed.
It Felt Choked.
Smothered.
Almost Strangled Out Of Existence.
And Then It Happened.
The Spark Came Into My Life, And It’s Not Letting Me Go…
…I’m Not Letting It Go.
The Fire Is Burning Hotter And Brighter Than It Has In Forever.
Things Are Changing.
Inside And Out, They’re Are Changing.
And I’m Loving It.
I’m Loving Every Bit Of It.
Am I Setting Myself Up For Failure?
Maybe.
I Don’t Really Care.
No Risk, No Reward.
Right???
RIGHT!!!
Soon, You’re All Going To Start Noticing The Transitions I’m Working-Out.
You’re Going To Hear Me Talk A Lot About The “Clean Slate“ And How It Can Literally Mean Everything.
I Wanted Nothing More Than A “Clean Slate“…
…A “Fresh Start“…
…A “New Beginning“…
…However You Wanna Put It.
Now, I’m Getting That Chance.
I’m Making That Chance.
I’m Taking That Chance.
It’s Mine.
All I Have To Do Is Own It.
And, Own It, I Shall.
🙂 😉 😀
And Now, For Your Listening Pleasure, The Song That Totally Says Everything I Need It To Say Right This Moment…
“INSIGHT“
by DEPECHE MODE
…From Their 1997 Album “ULTRA” !!!
Enjoy It, My Peeps.
You Already Know I Do…
…I Am…
…I Will.
Always And Forever, I Will.
I’ve Given You An Insight Into MY Life…
…I Just Hope To Reward Your Loving Patience.
Later On, My Peeps.
We’ll Be Talking More VERY Soon!!!
