"Home" is a song by English electronic music group Depeche Mode, released on 16 June 1997, by Mute Records, as the third single from their ninth album, Ultra (1997). The song is sung by guitarist Martin Gore, who also wrote it, rather than the band's main singer, Dave Gahan. Tim Simenon produced it.
Larry Flick from Billboard magazine wrote that the song "shows the venerable electronic group in a predictably melancholy mood. But who cares? Few acts can dish out the angst better, and 'Home' pleases with its baroque strings and skittling beat." He added, "Modern rock radio is a given. The question hanging in the balance is whether popsters will once again welcome Depeche Mode onto top 40 airwaves. Hard to say, though this is certainly the act's best mainstream single in a good long time." Pan-European magazine Music & Media deemed it as a "somewhat subdued but still sparkling affair." A reviewer from Music Week gave it a score of four out of five, describing it as "a downbeat track with an upbeat message, strong on strings and big synth sounds. Lighters aloft."
On 18 November 1997, "Home" and "Useless" were released as a double A-side single in the United States and Canada. The front cover art has the "Home" cover on the front, with the "Home" track list, and the back cover art has the "Useless" cover art, with the "Useless" track list.
