I've just remembered to check back, in case there are some threads I can reply to. Involving DM discussions always lure me in, but I guess I'll only get in a few posts during slow times like now.

I think Speak and Spell will always be the odd-man-out for me. I have a hard time connecting with Vince's songs, however catchy they may be. There are a few song on there that I definitely enjoy, bu ...

Having expanded my DM collection and given more of their songs a listen, I'm really liking 'Surrender'. It's a superb song that I'd elevate above b-side status. I'm beginning to enjoy 'Newborn' as w ...

goldcrap er sorry goldfrap murdered halo.
I don't think it's that bad. The original will always be superior, but this remix sort of helped me to like the song before I got the album. In fact, I thi ...

The SOFAD Live version appears to be synthesized, as opposed to the live strings they used on a select few venues. It's still very well done, and I'd really pay to hear it live in whatever form.

I'm not too fond of remixes, which is kind of junk because they seem to be in good supply on all those singles. There are some exceptions, though. Butch Vig's Zephyr remix of 'In Your Room' was rath ...

Are there any synth wizards in the house? I'm a guitarist with very little knowledge or skill in playing keys. However, my growing obsession with DM is encouraging me to try my hand at learning to pla ...

R.E.M. used to be my favorite group, but DM is my obsession right now. As surprising as it turned out, DM music hooks me in better than the former band's (although I admire that band so much all the ...

I am only beginning to get into Pet Shop Boys, but they seem to have some nice songs. I sampled Fundamental at a Tower Records listening station over a year ago and purchased the 'Minimal' single as ...

I am eagerly anticipating this release. Unfortunately, I've not come by any copies of Dave's first solo album anywhere locally. Same with Martin's Counterfeit releases. Looks like I have to hunt fo ...

I recently checked out 'Dangerous' and 'Happiest Girl', and they reminded me a lot of DM's earlier pop sound (although a bit updated, tech-wise). I only gave both of them one listen so far, so I gues ...

I agree that songs like 'Waiting For The Night' and 'When The Body Speaks' are pretty mellow. Exciter probably contains the most mellow songs in the purest sense of the word. 'Goodnight Lovers' is a ...

Here are just a few of my selections; and I'm talking about me actually attending a real Depeche Mode concert, not simply listening to a live recording. I've done a lot of that already! Very Happy

'My Joy' is my favorite, thus far. It could've been a wonderful album track as well, but I digress. When I finally have some spare cash to obtain more singles, I'll probably get exposed to more cool ...

A friend of mine gave me her Exciter album after she cleaned out her music collection. As a relatively new fan, I'd already purchased Violator, Playing The Angel (for 'Precious'), and the Shinoda rem ...
