"I Feel Loved" is Depeche Mode's thirty-seventh UK single, released on July 30, 2001 in the UK and July 31 in the US. It is the second single for the album Exciter.
"I Feel Loved" is a full on dance track, maybe the Depeche Mode song that sounds most like a dance track. It was played live during most of the Exciter Tour but was pulled halfway through the Europe leg for unknown reasons.
The B-side is a cover of Iggy Pop's "Dirt".
On August 7, 2001, the band went on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and performed "I Feel Loved".
[edit] Music video
Directed by John Hillcoat.
There are three versions, one that uses the "Single Version". There's remix videos by Dan-O-Rama, a long version, and a short version. The two remix versions are composed of modified production shots of the original video. The original version wasn't released on a public video till The Best Of: Volume 1 was released in 2006. The other two aren't on a public release.
The original video features Depeche Mode performing in a club. The setting makes for a hot, sweaty ambience. The club is stormed by policemen with dogs, apparently trying to close down the gig. The audience, however doesn't seem to mind the intrusion and some girls play with the dogs.
