Walking In My Shoes
"Walking in My Shoes" is a song by British electronic music band Depeche Mode. It was released on 26 April 1993 as the second single from their eighth studio album, ''Songs of Faith and Devotion'' (1993). The song reached number 14 on the UK Singles Chart and matched the success of the previous single "I Feel You" on the US ''Billboard'' Modern Rock Tracks chart, where it reached one. The B-side is "My Joy", the only exclusive B-side from the ''Songs of Faith and Devotion'' album, and is a rock track in the vein of "I Feel You". The 7-inch version of "Walking in My Shoes" is not the same as the one on ''Songs of Faith and Devotion''. The sound has been made more noisy and dirty, especially the drums in the verse, and the intro has been shortened. When performed live, elements of the "Grungy Gonads" mix are used in an extended intro and throughout the song. The song was cited by then-member Alan Wilder to be his favourite song from the album together with " In Your Room". Releas ...

B-side
The A-side and B-side are the two sides of phonograph records and cassettes; these terms have often been printed on the labels of two-sided music recordings. The A-side usually features a recording that its artist, producer, or record company intends to be the initial focus of promotional efforts and radio airplay and hopefully become a hit record. The B-side (or "flip-side") is a secondary recording that typically receives less attention, although some B-sides have been as successful as, or more so than, their A-sides. Use of this language has largely declined in the 21st century as the music industry has transitioned away from analog recordings towards digital formats without physical sides, such as CDs, downloads and streaming. Nevertheless, some artists and labels continue to employ the terms ''A-side'' and ''B-side'' metaphorically to describe the type of content a particular release features, with ''B-side'' sometimes representing a "bonus" track or other material.
