After all that, a cowboy song?! “It was you who took my soul and threw it on the fire”. This is blues-influenced yes, but again the acoustic guitar is perfectly embedded in the electronics and as the track progresses a great twinkling synth part sits over Gahan’s vocals. You might have expected ‘Goodbye’ to be some kind of ballady coda, but no, they’ve kept it rigid right up to the end. [Source]
