Depeche Mode Appreciation




Another group we never mention on this site is the thoroughly bonza Depeche Mode. I'm not going to pretend to be the most gigantic fan on the planet or know everything about them, because I don't. But I do have a bit of their stuff, and think that Martin Gore is a genius, I can't even believe how many tops as songs he has writen. I don't think he should sing with that girly voice though. Dave Gahan totally should all the time though, he is a lengendary singer. I don't know who the others are or what they do, but probably something involving keyboards.


Top 5 Depeche Mode Songs:

1. Enjoy The Silence. This is a perfect song. In my top 10/20 songs of all time, easily
2. Everything Counts. You've gotta love songs about anti-corporatism, and that rhyme Career with Korea
3. People Are People. There's a touch of the Heal The Worlds about this song, but at least it's not a freaking ballad
4. Blasphemous Rumours. 'I think that God's got a sick sense of humour, and when I die I expect to find him laughing.' Brilliant
5. Shake The Disease. This is a bit, spooky or something... It's totally tops anyway
