"Little 15" is a Depeche Mode single, released on 16 May 1988, and the fourth single from the album Music for the Masses. The song was never intended to be a single; in fact, it barely made it onto the album, but a French record label wanted to release the song as a single, and as such, it was released in France.

  • "Little 15" is a Depeche Mode single, released on 16 May 1988, and the fourth single from the album Music for the Masses. The song was never intended to be a single; in fact, it barely made it onto the album, but a French record label wanted to release the song as a single, and as such, it was released in France. While it has been said that the single was only released in France (for instance, on the back cover of The Singles 86>98 compilation), it was released in the UK on import and became a minor hit, reaching #60 on the UK Singles Chart - to date the lowest UK singles placing for the band). The single did not use the BONG designation for its catalog number as previous Depeche Mode singles had. The song's title, as well as its status as a minor release, contributed to its special catalog number "LITTLE15". In this vein, it can be seen as a "little" release between BONG15 ("Behind the Wheel") and BONG16 ("Everything Counts "). Ironically, "Little 15" didn't chart in France, but it was also released as a single in West Germany, where it hit #16, in Austria where it reached #25 and in Switzerland where it entered the Top 20 at #18. There was no remix of the song "Little 15" at the time of release (the 12" and 7" versions were the same); however, there are two instrumental B-Sides, both piano tunes performed by Alan Wilder. The first is "Stjärna" (mislabelled "St. Jarna"), which is Swedish for 'star', written by Martin Gore. The 12" B-side also contains a performance of Ludwig van Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata #14. " According to his website, Wilder did not intend for it to be on as a B-Side, he was merely performing it for fun, but Gore stealthily recorded it. Wilder did not perform the song perfectly (his error occurs near the end of the song). Both instrumentals are only produced by Depeche Mode alone (as opposed to the A-side which was produced by the band, plus Daniel Miller and Dave Bascombe). The music video for "Little 15" was directed by Martyn Atkins, who had done previous design work for the band. Between the Buried and Me covered this song on their 2006 album, The Anatomy Of.

  • "Little 15" est le vingt-et-unième single de Depeche Mode sorti le 16 mai 1988, quatrième extrait de l'album Music for the Masses. La chanson à la base ne devait pas être un single (en fait, elle a même failli ne pas être sur l'album), mais un label français a voulu la sortir en single. Little 15 est sorti dans très peu de pays et n'a pas eu d'impacts dans les classements de meilleures ventes de single par rapport à ses prédécesseurs. C'est donc une sortie mineure qui n'avait pas de plus le label "BONG" pour la première fois depuis le single "Leave in Silence" de 1982.
