I was shocked as I heard I Feel you on the radio.

But after listening to the album a lot of times, I liked it...

Shock? Yeah, we can call it shock Laughing

My jaw dropped literally. I was sitting in front of my TV, watching/listening to it on MTV first time.
Yeah. Shock. Sure.

It took a while to get used to I Feel You. The whole album wasn't as shocking as the first single though. I swallowed it without problems. My favorites changed over the years but I still treasure In Your room, Mercy in You and Rush.

With Ultra it was quite the same for me as with SOFAD.

My very favourite DM album !!! Very Happy

I can listen to it in loop with no pbs..... And the songs in live waow !!!! When I watched the DVD "Devotional tour" for the 1st time, I have had the impression to rediscover them Very Happy

(except for "Judas", I don't really care of this song on the album, but on live, I just can't Mad

Unbearable !)

Aside from Dave's problems, that era was perfect. Every song, every single release, every B-side, every live performance from that era holds a special place in my heart. Smile

Cheers

the studio version of I feel you is not very good.
Live however -this song rocks!
The four track 'I feel you' single is amazing to this day.

The album itself is unreal.

I love every song of SOFAD, but not "Judas"

SOFAD is what made me a fan. Even for someone new to DM at that time, their sound was completely different and original to anyone else around.

SOFAD was also the album that made me a fan. It was the first DM album that I ever heard, so I actually thought that, that was the DM sound...but of course I quickly found out that they were so much more than that. Still today it's my favorite DM. So dark, self destructive and noisy, but still pure and nice (especially Judas).

I like this album a lot
I think it has very good songs
Yes it's different from violator but I think Depeche tried to surprise the fans and also to sound different everytime
I think it was good that in this album they sound more rocky because this made their way from 80's to the 90's Very Happy

Great album Very Happy

but I Feel You is my less loved song on that album.. I think there are many other songs which are better than I Feel You.. but that's just my opinion and taste in music Wink
