I believe there is a listing error for this single, I'm pretty sure there is more than just the one track. I'm also sure there is a B-side to this song called "Flexible" which is again, a song I only liked after listening to it often. But you will realise why its a B-Side after listening to the intro. Its not an exeptional DM track, but somewhat tolerable. It seems almost "honky tonky" if such a term exists. Its the type of song you don't let someone who is sort of interested in DM listen to first. :)
Although it isn't mind blowing or ground shaking, these songs (along with Shake the Disease and some others) represent that time where Depeche Mode were moving from the pop band they were currently known as, to the darker, deeper band we know of today. I always get amazed thinking that right after these songs, "Black Celebration" (1986) was released. It must've been an awsome time for DM fans all over the world. I envy the fact I'll never be able to feel what they felt when it was first released.

"It's called a Heart" is a great single that, together with "Shake the Disease" can be considered a prelude to the album.
The song marks an evolution in DM music, towards an inner exploration and the videoclip, showing a moody walk of the group in a corn field between some strange fetishs and fires, above which are suspended enigmatic TV screens, gave me an unique sensation of familiarity (my childhood at my grandparents' country house) and strangeness.
Highly recommended, what can I say?
