About Wrong

"Wrong" is Depeche Mode's first single from their twelfth studio album Sounds of the Universe, and their 46th UK single overall. It hit the radio in February 2009, and became available for purchase online on 24 February 2009. The single was physically released on 6 April 2009. The 12" of the single was released on 11 May 2009. "Wrong" has received a positive response on United States alternative rock radio, becoming one of the 30 most-played songs in its first week of release. "Wrong" was added to the BBC Radio 6 "B-List" playlist for the week starting 7 March 2009. However, a week after physical release in April 2009, it charted at number 24 (and currently remaining their last UK Top 40 hit), the lowest UK chart position for the initial single from a Depeche Mode studio album ("Dreaming of Me", while charting at number 57 in 1981, was not an "official" track from the Speak & Spell album). By contrast, Sounds of the Universe itself reached number two in the UK upon release in late April, Depeche Mode's highest album chart position there since 1997. Likewise, "Wrong" was more successful in Scotland, topping the Scottish Singles Chart to become the band's first and only number-one single in that country. Elsewhere, the song reached the top 10 in several European countries, including Denmark, Finland, Germany, Italy, and Sweden. In North America, the song reached number 64 in Canada and number one on the US Dance Club Songs chart. more »
