Suspiria – Behind The Wheel

Suspiria - Behind The Wheel
Associated artists/bands: Suspiria
Original song info
CD comes in cardboard sleeve with a German gothic magazine. The booklet pretends that all songs are written and arranged by Suspiria, although it even contains another cover version, the song “Goodbye 70’s” by Yazoo (written by Alison Moyet). The version from this album is the same as the “Remix” version from “The Gothic Grimoire Compilation 2” (see above). The version of “Behind The Wheel” from this album was later featured on Suspiria’s Best Of compilation “Dancefloor Tragedy” (see below).

Although I already owned all regular releases, I started "seriously" collecting Depeche Mode's releases from all over the world in the late 80s. But when the internet and espacially eBay came up, I wanted to specialise my collection, because with eBay it was not a question of "how to find a rarity?" anymore, but just a question of "who pays the most?". That was the start of my collection of Depeche Mode cover versions.

I really like it when artists create a completely new mood in a cover version. For me, the best covers are very often just unknown tracks on an artist's album, while many tribute compilations are just "sound-a-likes" without own creativity.

Lyrics of "Behind The Wheel"

My little girl
Drive anywhere
Do what you want
I don’t care
Tonight
I’m in the hands of fate
I hand myself
Over on a plate
Now

Oh little girl
There are times when I feel
I’d rather not be
The one behind the wheel
Come
Pull my strings
Watch me move
I do anything
Please

Sweet little girl
I prefer
You behind the wheel
And me the passenger
Drive
I’m yours to keep
Do what you want
I’m going cheap
Tonight

You’re behind the wheel tonight
