    Their music has something very perennial about it. It never sounds dated and they always manage to stick to the style they created without sounding like they’re repeating themselves. That’s pretty rare.

    my daughter is the 12 yr old that wears a '86 Black Celebration shirt! I let her wear it to the San Diego show on 12/6 and when she held that shirt up, Dave pointed at her (we were in 3rd row) and yelled at her " Yeah you know this song!!" while "World in my Eyes" was being performed. THAT was a surreal moment for a young fan that has become obsessed with their music, especially their early stuff. It's good to pass on the torch!!

      I admit I admire both guys for many different reasons. Martin is so peaceful, introspective, reassuring, so deep like his songs whereas Dave is the energetic, charismatic, charming who has survived 3 ordeals. This interview reveals so much about their complex link...Dave has a hint of American accent due to his work with Soulsavers.
      Martin seems healthier than Dave so I m scared. 45 worldwide concerts 😮... I m sorry, both are really exceptional singers. Women are all in love with Dave. Not me...although DM have always been out of this world. Greetings from France without google translator. I bought their wonderful album yesterday. It is so unfair for Andy who never lost himself in excesses because of fame 🎉😊

    For me there is no life without DM. They've always been there. My obsession comes in waves, every once in a while there's nothing but DM but there are times when they get to "park in the second row" for a while. They never disappear though. DM is a feeling, it's the soundtrack to so many people's lives including mine. They both look amazing in this video and it's so enjoyable listening to their thoughts. Memento Mori is a great modern yet classic DM album that somehow makes me nostalgic for the future.

    I streamed the new release. I thought there could have been a happy song there somewhere.for a break from Doom.
    But Ghosts again was head and shoulders above the rest. Love it.

    I love seeing the details in my appreciation of this tour to compare Depeche Mode to Andrea Oliva (& Olympia Scarry Burqa) through Pantha Du Prince sampling Depeche Mode

    In the film of one's life, as it plays in our memory, I imagine many people have a depeche song on their life's soundtrack. I know I do

    DM always has been unique band - there was no one else in the 80s who had such a unique music and style . People thought electronic music is weird - we played it like madmen . When the violator came with the remixes such as sea of sin and others - it was on the different level . No one did remixes back then . Listen to the Sea Of Sin - that track is from 1990 . You can still play it in the clubs and most people won’t even know it’s almost 33 years old .
