Oh what a times, where you could dance like this and everyone follow your steps; but that reason, eighties forever,yeah!!!!!!!!!!! Greetings from Colombia
These videos are just wonderful.. it's great that we can see their beginning, they were so young and dave's face is so smiling and happy and full of life.. they made a big part of music history
Muy extraño, en verdad, ya que es de sus rarísimos directos en televisión de esos años, cuando se imponía por sistema el play-back en las actuaciones televisivas.
@weegieman67 It's not TOTP. Looking at my own handwriting on the spine of the original VHS cassette, it was a Saturday morning kids TV show called "Get Set For Summer".
I remember hearing this song when I was five! There was a public access station where I lived which played music videos and this station played all the vintage DM videos as well as The Cure and Echo and the Bunnymen.
This is one of the songs that turned me on to Depeche Mode back in 1982. I love the fact that this is a live performance (not mimed). The vocals and synth playing are definitely live. In fact the music is quite dark - based on minor chords. Especially the bridge that goes "From the notes that I made so far love seems something like wanting a scar".
I wish my school had a disco! Dave wouldn't have noticed me, because my moves were at skating rink 3 years later, not at school dances. Back then, my school played music like Apache (Jump On It) now ooonga ooonga ooonga ooonga
This has to be one of the best 80's synth pop tunes i have ever heard!!!!! AAAAAAAAAA±±±± A broken frame is an amazing album!!! But... i think speak and spell is more consistent
Depeche Mode are one of the longest-lived, most successful and influential bands to have emerged from the New Wave era. They have had forty-five songs in the UK Singles Chart, as well as one U.S. and two UK number one albums. According to EMI, Depeche Mode have sold over 75 million albums worldwide, as part of total worldwide record sales in excess of 100 million. And for yor infomation "Depeche Mode" means "Fashion Dispatch"
i remember those "pararie" blouses.. i grew up in san diego, and they used to wear them with like op shorts and flip flops.. it was the lil house on the prarie/surfer girl look...
well they had to start somewhere, you cant expect a band like Depeche Mode in the late 80's early 90's to start off as he greatest musicians ever... lol this vid is funny compared to depeche mode in their devotional days
Ahh...I, as a child born in the ninetees, have also noticed a pattern in 80s dancing when looking back at these great old tunes (that I unfortunately missed out on, I had to endure Britney Spears and the likes in my childhood) It's like the shake-and-bake revamp...the side to side step with the arm swing, I see that alot in various 80s movies and music videos. I'd trade that anyday for this new hip-hop crap that everyone listens to.
Probably because Martin L.Gore tried to sound similarly to Vince Clarke who left DM in late 1981 to form his new band, Yazoo. I guess Martin just didn't want to change DM's "success formula". But I'm bloody glad soon Martin found his own style - Black Celebration and especially VIOLATOR definetely are in the Greatest Albums of all Time List!
Martin Gore has said, "It means hurried fashion or fashion dispatch. I like the sound of that.". But the correct translation is 'fashion dispatch'. Although Martin Gore could be wrong and you're right!!! Duh!
I wouldn't exactly categorize A Broken Frame as a dark album, eventhough Martin wrote all the lyrics. DM changed drastically with Construction Time Again and further with the albums that followed (SGR, Black Celebration, MFTM, etc.). Martin's a great songwriter but great lyrics don't equal a great song, unless you have someone who can take that song and mold it using extraordinary musical skills. Having Alan Wilder, Garreth Jones and Daniel Miller certainly helped DM achieve a different sound
yes tv dancing is right..i lived through this period and some producer crammed a bunch of girls with ruffled shirts and big hair and said dance. You have to remember that the synth sound was still really a new sound at the time and most men would not be caught dead dancing period...AND especially to something that sounded so feminine (gay). guitar rock still ruled in 81-82...things were changing especially in the UK..but the states, especially the middle part still had a long way to go.
wow... pretty interesting case of half playback! On the one hand, the lead vocals sound very much like playback, but then some of the synth lines go wrong and the backing vocals are also somewhat insecure. Hard to tell what the tape is actually contributing.
No, Vince Clark left because the rest of the band DIDN'T want the pop sound as much. They were getting too dark for his taste. "The Meaning of Love" is an anomaly of "A Broken Frame". Depeche Mode got much darker in the later albums.
Bit cruel of the tv people to put insects & itching powder in the girls' clothes. Reminds me of our youth club dancing in those very days, great times.

Oh, baby Depeche Mode! So young and cute!
I recorded this onto VHS from a Saturday morning program called "Get Set for Summer", back in 1982.
-John A.
Whooooo Dave kicks bootay on the dance clubscene floor 😁👼😇
The way the girls dressed back then turns me on something fierce!
Absolutely classic. Thank you for posting this. 8)
The hair, the clothes, the dancing on the dancefloor had me in bits. Awesome video post! Awsome DM
So bad it's GOOD! Thanks for posting this classic.
@truediabolique69

God I love DM!! Can´t wait for the new tour! Got my tickets!!!
I remember hearing this song when I was five! There was a public access station where I lived which played music videos and this station played all the vintage DM videos as well as The Cure and Echo and the Bunnymen.
Depeche Mode forever!!!
Greatest among the Greatest.
yep...prarie girl shirts...im suprised they havent made a comeback yet, alot of stuff from the era has..
Love the dancing!!! Such freer times
Lol, I love the way singer Dave Gahan dances around the 1:18 mark! Anyways, this is classic 80s at its finest, I wish I were in these times!
Se ve tan dulce, desde ya tenía una super voz. New wave yeah!!!!!

MY FAVOURITE DEPECHE SONG
The Meaning of Love ♥
Úristen!Még csak 3 éves voltam 82-ben!
De imádom őket!!!!!
Love forever DM!!!!
So cool! Glad I came across this one. They were so perfect live back then. Almost sounded like the studio recording!
It is the studio recording. Back in the day, when music artists did performances on TV. They would actually be lip syncing to the studio recording.
@@jorgelewis6568 yeah I know what they did for TV performances, but this one is live and definitely not the studio recording.
@@JaveDMode After closer inspection, I have come to the conclusion that my previous comment is wrong. Therefore, I apologise to you.
Man those were the days, I was 5 when i heard the Meaning Of Love, Classic Depeche
Playing the Angel was much more dark than their early days, the best Depeche Mode is from 1981-86
Great shirts on those dancing girls...High fashion back then
this is the best of depeche mode, I had a greatest hits album as a kid that only covered the early stuff, and it was the best stuff ever
I love this tune!!! Zany sounding synthpop Raw depeche mode
💋💋💋
I LOOOOOOOOVE THIS!
The dancers are FABULOUS!
Ah takes me back to growing up in England in the early 80's
god, dave is sooo young in this video.
holy shit!

****I love Dave!!! is so cute!!!!****
AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE back to old times ;-)

man if anyone started dancing like those people in the crowd today the whole club would stare at them. lol. looks fun tho.
Ótimo vídeo! Como eles estão jovens!
oh, i remember it very well...i just turned 18...was a fantastic time!
I wish my school had a disco! Dave wouldn't have noticed me, because my moves were at skating rink 3 years later, not at school dances. Back then, my school played music like Apache (Jump On It) now ooonga ooonga ooonga ooonga
excellent voice and strange disco-)
This has to be one of the best 80's synth pop tunes i have ever heard!!!!! AAAAAAAAAA±±±± A broken frame is an amazing album!!! But... i think speak and spell is more consistent
chistosa la escenografía pero excelente tema ;)

Τραγικά υπέροχο... τι εποχές Χριστέ μου...!
i remember those "pararie" blouses..
i grew up in san diego, and they used to wear them with like op shorts and flip flops..
it was the lil house on the prarie/surfer girl look...
incredible post, thanks for the geat vid!
Pretty different version, I suppose pretty early one. Alan`s parts are different, not like later on.
Luv that new-wave dance step!
@Italodancers 2nd album! you're right about it being incredible though :)
So young... hardly comparable with nowadays depeche))
cute footage!
This was on Get Set For Life!
Depeche Mode FOREVER!
@JohnAdrenochrome You are right, i remember a Yazoo song on a similar stage set, called "Get Set"
well they had to start somewhere, you cant expect a band like Depeche Mode in the late 80's early 90's to start off as he greatest musicians ever... lol this vid is funny compared to depeche mode in their devotional days
I'll hazard a few guesses over wot show this was taken from: Oxford Roadshow? Freeze Frame? Nozin' Aroun'?
Ahh...I, as a child born in the ninetees, have also noticed a pattern in 80s dancing when looking back at these great old tunes (that I unfortunately missed out on, I had to endure Britney Spears and the likes in my childhood)
It's like the shake-and-bake revamp...the side to side step with the arm swing, I see that alot in various 80s movies and music videos. I'd trade that anyday for this new hip-hop crap that everyone listens to.
And by the way, the style of dance is called "New Romantic" and is also a fashion style from 1979-83
Great video
Thanks!
haha, damn I was a baby back then. I was born in late 81. :P
ah he looks so young n cute aw
OH my god this is rare! thanks!
@z91tora that´s right!!! haha!!! happy new year from Argentina...
Love DM but I'm sure glad Alan steered them away from this sound. Love the much darker DM sound that came after A Broken Frame.
Sorry peeps that wasnt TOTP,S Dave was singing live .Everyone had to mime
in the old days didnt matter who were .
@captaincomputa I so agree! 1981-85
Great vid..what the hell are those women wearing ? Pinafores ? I was an 80s kid and no one I knew wore that gear ! :-)
Great new-romantic dancing
everyone is allowed to make mistakes. he playing in relative darkness.

I can´t see any strange way of dancing :-D
maybe I am too old ;-)
Wow! Disco from DM!!!!!!
this dancing audience is so gooood...LOL
good times!!
This song is really good and catchy, I hear nothing wrong with it at all!
Who cares how he dances!! This is AWESOME!
que jovencitos estan
oh por dios xD!
excelente
Martin Gore has said, "It means hurried fashion or fashion dispatch. I like the sound of that.". But the correct translation is 'fashion dispatch'.
Although Martin Gore could be wrong and you're right!!! Duh!
Gary Hampton It is actually “Fast Fashion”
@@TrainmasterCurt its means actually "fast" or "Fast way"
Not sure if its been mentioned that this is from Get Set For Summer....BBC TV show
Ese baile para mi es de lo mas natural, las chicas en Peru aun bailan asi. No entiendo al extrañeza. Bueno... tambien yo paso de los treinta, je!
I drove my mum mad with the 12 inch of this, wore a hole in the living room carpet

all thoes girls must of taken dance leasons from dave, great video and song
20 years on m8 , people will look on videos of present dancing and say exactly the same :)
wow... pretty interesting case of half playback!

I love it!
Check out Synthesizer Tribute to Depeche Mode!
I used to dance like that!!
Is it me or does Dave Gahan look like Rick Astley (Never Gonna Give You Up)
I love the dancing in this, way better than hip-hop garbage

EPIK arm swinger dancing!!!! o_0
