@@michelphilippe1 I think it's not playback. I've read that the video was composed by different shows, but I don't know if the audio is 100% from one shot.
Those who were not there will never, ever understand what the opening of this show was like. You could watch it a million times, you still won't come close. It was beyond magical. It was beautiful and surreal. STUNNING!!!!! My brother and I saw them twice on this tour, 1993 and 1994. I am reliving the magnificence of this perfect moment in time. F'N AMAZING!!!!!!!! So ahead of their time....
@@ninawildr4207 It's not. Seeing them after Alan left made that very obvious. After the show in 1993, even my younger brother, who was about 11 at the time, told me he was impressed. Our musical tastes are so different, but even he was impressed. That speaks to the power of DM's music. It breaks my heart that Alan Wilder is no longer a part of Depeche Mode. Watching this brings back incredible memories 🖤🖤🖤🖤🔥🔥🔥🔥
Special song by a special and unique band. People don't realize what a piece of art this is...these DM times were pretty historical. That part where Alan enters to play the melody is a classical example of how hitting the right notes in the right context is key to move your soul in the right direction. Pure magic!
Depeche Mode is such a great band. What started as an electric pop band really evolved in one of the great rock bands of the last decades. And my God yes what a singular and great voice. I would love your input on the first video of my first album. It got the attention of one of my heroes Joe Bouchard (ex bass player founding members of BÖC) but returns from people who likes same music is always the best. If you have just 3 minutes to listen and a bit more to comment, that would mean the world to me : ua-cam.com/video/YJqmsXd8QH4/v-deo.html&t
Un album accouché dans la douleur, une tournée très compliqué avec les autres membres du groupe la magie et la une voix incroyable un concert excellent C’est du dépêche mode 🖤🖤🖤
This show has opened my mind like church. Finding love this year over and over, this concert is best discovered over new love. Devotional mind blown open wide
This album was where the true fans and the violator masses fans separated. DM used real instruments on this album and decided to pull away from the electronic version of themselves. I saw this concert in Hampton Roads, VA. The The opened for them. Depeche was 30 minutes late to the venue, but when they played this opening, I cried. They did drop the curtain after the first verse.
Higher love is such a beautiful, tranquil, mysterious and never boring song for me. Always beautiful to listen to. 1.Higher love 2.In your room 3.Dream on 4.Precious 5.Cover me 6.Enjoy the Silence 7.World in My Eyes 8.Stripped 9.Behind the Wheel 10.Just can’t get enough
Was at this show, loved the devotional tour- just saw them in Seattle. They’re simply the best band on the planet. Miss fletch (RIP) they still sounded phenomenal!!!
best convert ever crystal palace 1993. best opening ever with that curtain, then dave appears mid way through. takes me back. sisters of mercy supporting as well were superb
Beautiful just beautiful, there is nothing compared to this. This is how you open a concert. This song is easily in my top 10 of best songs of DM, Alan wilder is a genius!
@@JackFraz1972 personally, I think Martin was being a prick calling Alan a control freak...as an excuse once Alan left the band and explanation why Alan felt he was under(appreciated, rated, paid...). I believe Martin and co. used Alan in a proper capitalist way...let him sweat and then drain to bloody pain.
@@ViliamGajdos I wouldn't say they used him it's not like he didn't get paid or anything but of course Alan did contribute way more than Fletch but got paid the same .
Scott Walters Yes their lowest point because of all the chaos going on. Fame will do that. However they put on the greatest shows of their career during the 1993 and 1994 Devotional era. It was an amazing tour.
Дейв своим голосом ты берешь за живое, тебе нет равных, ты явно пришёл в этот мир с другой, планеты, твой голос неземной, красота твоя мужская неземная, даже фигура твоя как для мужчины необыкновенная, и то как танцуешь, твои движения необычные , ты чудо света, не простой мужчина
Is it cold in here? Why do I suddenly feel chills? 42 year’s old, DM fan since I was 8 years old....other kids my age loved Milli Vanilli and thought I was weird. Who’s laughing now?
Yeah, my English teacher appreciated my passion for DM and English-language music. Especially British groups for correct English. She offered me to translate their songs. It was 1991. It took me 3-5 days to translate each song. It was more interesting for me to do this than to spend time with my peers.
I am a big fan of Depeche Mode,they have really too many great songs,this song is number one to me!!!Especially,this perfomance, how Dave look, camera from side, this moment is FANTASTIC!!!!
I dont want to be that person that says Depeche Mode 'peaked' at this point... I really dont, but for me, they really did! I was 14 when this tour came out, a quiet and shy small town boy that was too young to see his favourite band. I saw them in 98 for the singles tour but I would have loved to have seen this era ❤❤ - Devotional - my most watched dM video.
There is something so very sexy about the way they used the curtains, the shadows, the silhouettes..... I'm going to see this in my dreams and fantasies for the rest of my life..
i love music in it's all. many live shows, many studio "masterpieces". But this... the way it gets you... every band starts a concert with a high beat song. To start one of the biggest tours in the world with this... this is pure masterpiece. martin wrote it, alan worked it and dave made it real with what anton designed....
Just think about it for a second: Not only did they start off their show with a song off their latest record (at the time), but it wasn't even a radio single. AND it was the last track of the album! On top of that, this was a totally new direction for the band, artistically speaking. Yet it STILL garnered a massive response from the audience. DM fans are like none other. Truly, a one-of-a-kind band.
I can taste more than feel This burning inside is so real I can almost lay my hands upon The warm glow that lingers on Moved, lifted higher Moved, my soul's on fire Moved, by a higher love I surrender all control To the desire that consumes me whole And leads me by the hand to infinity That lies in wait at the heart of me Moved, lifted higher Moved, my soul's on fire Moved, by a higher love Heaven bound on the wings of love There's so much that you can rise above Moved, lifted higher Moved, moved, by a higher love By a higher love I surrender heart and soul Sacrificed to a higher goal Moved, moved by a higher love By a higher love
It couldn't get higher, at this point they were perfect. After Wilder left the magic was gone a little bit. Ultra followed in greatness, but after that something was missing. They never were so perfect and genius again. Never understood why they didn't get wilder back...
Cos Ultra was successful and the remaining 3 wrongly believed it confirmed they didn’t need Alan. To be fair doubt Alan would have returned with the way he was treated by the others.
if you listen to certain other concerts of the SOFAD period, Dave was totally intoxicated and signing awfully. time flies, his voice is changing. gratefully, his baritone is always there though!

La meilleur intro de depeche mode, avec la meilleur tournée SOFAD.
With Alan doing the music and arrangements, Depeche were fantastic!!
This song gives me chills. Dave's performance... So dark, so intense.
By far the best DM tour ever! ...Depeche Mode when they were at their most dangerous periode...
The best show-opener of all time..
Quite simply the most brilliant opening to a song by a band that is simply like no other and have been part of my life since my early teens.
BEST INTRO EVER.
Чудо....HIGHER LOVE.Каждый раз ,когда слушаю-мурашки по коже. 93 год,до сих пор,как вчера.КЛАССНЫЙ КОНЦЕРТ!,

When I’m feeling down 1st all I need to do is listen to Depeche Mode and it helps feel good again! Depeche !
The title says it all
.
Higher Love.
That's all.
All.
Best opening theme ever.
Into thrash, gothic, death, black, folk, power, tech-death and prog metal for decades - but obsessed by Depeche Mode since 1989.

Best opening song of a concert ever. Then the song itself omg. Brilliant
Peak DM - don’t think they ever bettered this era!
Songs of Faith and devotion will always hold a special place in my life .Quite profound and very spiritual for so many reasons . Art at its best .
Ditto! 💯 This album, soundtrack to my college/uni days - incredibly powerful, poignant + spiritual album 🖤🌹💜🙏🏽
I'll never forget seeing this live at Madison Square Garden....It was a religious experience.
как же это охуенно звучит-то и в 2021
Гугл ты прав !
Уже в 2022
и во всех следующих годах
На все времена
скоро 30 лет, как я услышал этот альбом.
и да, звучало охуенно и в 1993 и сейчас.
такого больше не делают. даже сами депеши
Были такие молодые и такие философы,тексты просто супер!это мой любимый концерт,все четверо на высоте!
СОФАД - лучшее время ДМ!
This is why SOFAD Is a Piece of ART. No one Can record something like This Again....Never.
Agree

There’s no better feeling than connecting with this song, is like a drug
Visto en Madrid con la magia de los 20 años y un grupo que lo era todo ❤
No one ever expect that such a slow song can have such a powerful opening for a concert like this!
the highest point of the band!!!
Perfect line up
Perfect Setlist
Perfect performance!!!
Miss those days!!
Antonio Castellanos And yet their lowest point personally.
You forgot to mention perfect drugs
Scott Walters
Yes their lowest point because of all the chaos going on. Fame will do that. However they put on the greatest shows of their career during the 1993 and 1994 Devotional era. It was an amazing tour.
Antonio Castellanos
Me too. So awesome!! Time Machine alert!!!
1997 Ultra Alan was gone
Barrel of a gun

It's no good
Depeche Mode is still kicking America in the ass with out Alan
What a opening… i can taste than feel …
One of the baddest jams ever... Period.
слушаешь, смотришь и понимаешь - Боги с Олимпа !!!!!!
Одна из любимых моих песен Depeche Mode!
Просто шедевр!! Магия!!

This song brings me closer to God , love it , could listen to it forever xxx
Seriously, if I ever get a time machine, I'm immediately heading back so I can see this tour. So very, very amazing!
Can I join you?

That’s down to the musical genius of Alan Wilder
I can taste more than feel
This burning inside is so real
I can almost lay my hands upon
The warm glow that lingers on
Moved, lifted higher
Moved, my soul's on fire
Moved, by a higher love
I surrender all control
To the desire that consumes me whole
And leads me by the hand to infinity
That lies in wait at the heart of me
Moved, lifted higher
Moved, my soul's on fire
Moved, by a higher love
Heaven bound on the wings of love
There's so much that you can rise above
Moved, lifted higher
Moved, moved, by a higher love
By a higher love
I surrender heart and soul
Sacrificed to a higher goal
Moved, moved by a higher love
By a higher love
J'ai fini par trouver, Jésus Christ 😘
