I love Martin. He has such a fantastic laugh
Martin is a phenomenal musician, singer, songwriter & producer. He is such an amazing person. He's so sweet and still has his boyish charm & that laugh just warms your heart.
Sono pienamente d'accordo, mi piace molto! Lo hai descritto benissimo!
Mi piace la sua risata 😃
How on earth can someone not distinguish David and Martin's voice ??? 🤔
She's not a fan....
in the 80s and 90s it happened quite a lot actually... so i can see how a newer fan can have that issue only with a couple listens. im sure i did it a time or two.
I think in all fairness to the DJ had only heard the album once.
Must admit I have always thought that Martin and Dave's voices are very similar. Especially on the early Depeche albums. 🧐
Maybe not so much now, but It used to be difficult. I thought for the longest that Martin sang ‘Only When I Lose Myself’ I must’ve played the song 100x before I realized it was Dave because I didn’t think his voice was even capable of hitting those notes. While I’m at it it took a couple listens to ‘Sweetest Perfection’ to realize it was Martin cause he was singing so much lower than normal.
If you’re not a longtime fan, you likely can’t recognize the natural Vibrato in Martin’s voice that Dave lacks which could make it confusing.
@@nigeltwelvetrees6295 Martin's singing voice has more vibrato for starters
Martin is such a great person
I’ve heard stuff.😟
Martin is a gentle soul....
Im here to hear Martin's laugh.... it is so distinctive ... hahahaha.
DM are legends .
thank you for the interview .
Flood does a great impersonation of Martin.
This album is incredible!!
He’s such a sweet and humble guy. Probably the greatest songwriter of my generation.
maybe you're right
How blessed we are to have a band with Martin and Dave singing.. almost like a cheat code 😂
I am obsessed with this album. I took my wife to her first Depeche Mode show and she fell in instant ❤. We haven’t stopped talking about it since. They are beautiful!
Martin is such a kind and beautiful human being.
They played for millions of people, but it all comes down to humble people behind the music. Peace and Long Live DM.
Love Martin! Met him backstage at the Mayan Theater in Lisa Angeles in 2003 when he was doing his solo work. He was a very nice, gentle and kind person. Much respect for DM
That must have made your day ... or year 😊
Martin is always ready to laugh, I appreciate that
I love listening to Martin, he continues to be so humble and reflective with a great and curious observation on life, which has always shown in the songs.
I fall in love with Martin each time I hear him in a different interview. No matter the moment in time and what the situation is Martin shows an incredible amount of talent and genius. ❤❤❤ His laugh and humor is eloquently beautiful❤
He's saying here he's over 60 now but you can feel he's more than 20-30 years younger inside. I've always loved this guy's sense of humour. Long live Martin !
The child inside 😍
"Soul with me". "Dave with higher register LOL!" It's Martin singing! :)
AP made the same mistake in their review.. must be people who have never heard a DM album before
I like her questions and loving all the feedback Martin provides... but this miss on who's actually singing "soul with me" was an.. ouch... you didn't just say Dave.. did you? and Martin very casually handles the misstep like a pro
Wow. You can easily tell the difference between voices. Big oof.
It was awkward 😅
Soul with me... Is one of the BEST songs Martin Gore did in a loooooong time love it❤️
What a charming and generous man. Clearly a shy person and quite self-effacing, it is hard to believe that their canon of work stretches back over forty years and that he is so "un-jaded" (sorry, not a word but I hope descriptive enough to give me a pass on that). For a real sense of what 40+ years really looks like, may I recommend their Hammersmith Odeon concert from 1982 (available on UA-cam.)
Martin Gore pure talent, we love Memento Mori 💕
Literally the best laugh in the universe.
I'm obsessed with that room and the black ceiling 🖤🖤
Yo también ♥
My favorite Tracks are "Before We Drown" and "People Are Good". People Are Good give me what i like on Depeche Mode but also give me "Kraftwerk" Vibes, a brillant combination.
Ditto on the Kraftwerks vibe. I love it!
I’m with you 100 percent
It's great to see Martin so happy. This interviewer has had an impression on him. Love these guys and glad to see such an increase in attention.
I discovered DM when I was 15 and Everything Counts was the latest single. I had to buy the album Construction Time Again immediately.
The following year I saw DM live at Wembley and remember to this day how live was so different to studio output, but the vibe was electric.
To this day, I have seen so many artists and bands but no one does a better all inclusive gig than DM.
I was fortunate to See Dave Gahan & the Soulsavers at the London Coliseum back in 2021 playing to only 2,500 audience and the vibe was still there!
Shaking hands and talking with Peter Gordeno a very surreal moment. He, like the rest of the band, really nice people.
Looking forward to Twickenham, where I will be in the golden circle! The album is class. I'm so glad it has been approved by so many.
Back in 1983 when I started to listen and like them, I was in a minority!
Martin's laugh is so funny! I love DM, soundtrack to my life............. Thank you for never giving up Martin and Dave and thank you for keep on going even though Fletch left... Can't wait to hear the 4 additional songs... It was ALWAYS YOU...
Interesting how the interview glasses over when he talks about turning 60 which obviously was very profound, he probably had a lot more to say about that given half the chance!
Yeah mentiones this a lot
It’s because his step father died at 61 and his biological father died at the age of 68 so it gets you thinking. If you’re the child of a parent who died prematurely and you then hit the age that they were when they died, it puts things into a different perspective. When you turn the age they were when they died you suddenly realize that they had hopes and dreams; you try and compare your world view with theirs and what they might have wanted. When you make it to the next year and the year following that and you’ve outlived your parents and you’re now living years they didn’t get to. It is psychologically really heavy. If you’ve lost a parent, you’ll understand what I’m trying to explain and doing a poor job.
Outliving your parents and hitting those landmarks in your life make you question your life. Where you’ve been. What you’ve done and where you’re going. You also start to wonder if you’ll only get as much times as them and what will you do if you outlive them by longer than you expected.
It’s complicated. Like everything.
Great to hear some background about the songs. Hopefully the missing 4 songs will be released as a vinyl EP. The album has a real flow.
Who thinks “ People are good “ is the best song . I loved it
as a DM devotee, have to thank the algorithm for bringing me here...
hope to see them again in South America, specially in Brazil.
Its like watching family get older, seeing Dave and Martin grow older. I've been a life long fan since I was 10 in 1980 Depeche Mode will and always be my favorite band. Shoot me and my fiancé got engaged at the LA concert 3/28.23.
Oops,she confused Martin's voice. I think the notes were not clear, the voices are not really that similar. It's cool to listen to Martin talkimg in a more private environment. Very relaxing, it's like your best friend is saying that everything is going to be fine
Legends
i still listen to records from front to back, this one shows they've put thought into it
Martin is so gracious and humble in this interview - but the interviewer, all those “hmmmms” as her responses, the obvious mistake, was a bit embarrassing. I love Wagging Tongue, People Are Good, Always You. ❤
Wow how weird she did not recognize that "Soul with me" is sung by Martin LOLOL
I feel blessed to have had the fortunate of occupying roughly the same patch of spacetime as this brilliant gentleman. Love ya Martin.
Can’t wait to see Martin on April 7th!
Martin is such a nice guy, Dave as well ❤
That laugh !!!! There’s only one Martin 😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
What a beautiful soul this man is
What a lovely humble guy Martin is! My genius
Wow. Handsome man at 60
Martins ace!🤩 Love his laugh!😂
Great album. Also he should write more with Richard Butler..Ghosts Again and Caroline's Monkey are amazing songs. In fact all 4 songs are great.
Who?? LOL....Absolutely NOT! He's Martin Effing Gore, one of the best song writers of all time! Doesn't need help from anyone else. It's like Ferrari asking help building cars from Nissan :))
As a longtime admirer of The Psychedelic Furs, apart from "Don't say you love me", I find the 4 Gore/Butler co-written tracks to be really quite underwhelming. There are much better songs on Butler's 2006 self titled debut solo album.
@@shawnhossini3321 The mere fact that Richard Butler co-wrote 4 songs on this album would clearly suggest that even Martin Gore feels he needs help. I mean, come on, the best song on "Spirit" was a Gahan composition; "Cover me".
Most powerful album sinds ULTRA 1997...Welcome back the Old Mode❤
I just love his smile, his laugh, I just love him period!! Thank Martin for being who you are !!
🤗😍🙏🏻😘
Seemed like interviewer knew nothing about DM. Martin great as always despite that.
Soul with me ❤
I love his voice, his songs and his personality ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He looks amazing!!
In my 20’s I took my parents to a DM concert and they absolutely loved it. Now I’m 50 and my daughters run around the house singing DM songs. Amazing music appeals to all ages.
These guys have been around forever. So good they are still with us. And sounding so fresh.
❤he’s a beautiful soul
Love this! So grateful that I got to see them in Sacramento and that we can all come together again to enjoy music and life in general.❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Martin Gore is such a beautiful, kind and humble person
4 more tracks!!!!!!!
Met Martin in LA back stage on Songs of Faith & Devotion. Studied MIDI because of him and his writing. Listening to Depeche Mode since the early days. Just love the work. I have a drumstick that Fletcher gave me at shoreline amphitheater show on Black Celebration. They are a generous band in that they give it all emotionally and on live shows. Thank you Martin & Dave.
So excited to hear about 4 bonus tracks
Thanks for the album Marty and don’t worry about being 60! You’re great!
Gênio... Mister Martin L. Gore !
this album is beautiful as all albums are beautiful
60 more tracks? Incredible
Very funny Lana thought it was Dave singing higher 😂 perfectly understandable if she's not heard much DM. Good interview regardless!
Thank you for this interview, and thank you Mart for taking the time!:) it's always a joy to hear Martin talk about the record and how the process has been. hope they're having a lovely time on tour! So much love for DM!❤
Te amo Martin.
❤❤❤Love him!!!
People are People + It's No Good = People are Good
Or people are no good.
@@MisAnnThorpe Haha, YES! 🤣
04:00 LOL "Journalism these days !" How can you not recognize it's Dave or Martin singing, though ?
İ played it a couple of times. Great album. Bought the luxe cd version and the limited red vinyl.
Thank you DM.
Lo más lindo de la entrevista es la risa de Martin.Precious boy!!!
Él es tan bonito como siempre.
Simpático y educado para responder,con paciencia.
Martin Gore!!! 💕💕💕 Excellent.
Memento Mori is an absolutely phenomenal album.....thankyou Depeche Mode and team
How in the world did she mess that up with Soul With Me. Will definitely be her last interview with DM.
Martin is such a wonderful soul and great to listen to. Such a down to earth genius.
When interviewing a band of such prestige, please make sure your knowledge of the album in particular who sings what track is on point…………….
Yep🤦♀️
OMG... Who cares??
My fav interview from 2023 :) love you
Glad you enjoyed it 🙏
Just an incredible human being.
Fortunately, this album is beautiful - unlike the previous misstep.
Martin is so delightfully awkward.
grandissimo Martin,bellissima intervista...............e speaker stupenda ❤❤❤❤
I had no idea that DM was still making music and was delighted to hear this song Ghost Again. THey still sound so good and even better! I'm so happy that the younger generations enjoy it as well. It reminds me of when I was growing up in the 60's & 70's listening to the Beatles & the Kinks. But it seems that the radio market all but disappeared in the last 10 years. Now we have this continuum.
I grew up in the SBC and Soul With Me feels like gospel. It has stuck with me since I first heard it.
BEST INTERVIEW SO FAR! Great job!
Glad you enjoyed it!
That was fantastic.
Great interview!! Martin hitting 60 happily and creatively!! English is not my native language ...what is comidic??
❤❤❤❤
Good interview good questions 😊
Excellent questions.
Thank you 🙏
The best album since Violator : masterpiece
I love Martin. I want to just have a cup of coffee with him.
Great laugh, having 1st play now of cd
Martin una persona a stupenda e un artista con un talento incredibile ❤ D M forever and ever ❤
ДМ - любовь навсегда!
Soul with me is Dave…well what can you say to here… 🥂
LOVE his laugh ❤ 😂
King! :)
show, top girl and top depeche Martin
Good interview. Don't worry about the Dave/Martin error on the one song, I didn't know until I listened twice or more.
How is it possible to confuse Martin 's voice with Dave's ? Thank God she didn't confuse Depeche Mode with Taylor swift 😂
Bien dicho 😃
Bring Thorsen for tricks on! And do it on vinyl please 😃👍
