Depeche Mode: "Its No Good" - A song of hope, or dillusion?
I was discussing this song with some peeps and Ive always loved it. In fact Ultra is one of my favorite CDs. But I cant decide of the song is of hope, or dillusion. The video gives off a dillusion feel, but what do you fans think?

I think it's both too. It's like "Peace" off the most recent album.

Hey Nyko if you like "Peace" from SOTU you should listen to "And Then" from Construction Time Again it's amazing.

I love And Then, but I dont see the connection with Peace.

Since there is no such word as "dillusion", I'll have to vote hope.

Maybe it is a new word, delusion AND disillusion combined.

Perhaps dillusion is when you think you are eating something with pickles in it but that is not in fact the case.
