    Martin's song to his children during his divorce. Lovely song, I particularly like some of the live versions.

    Precious was released as the first single a few months before the record came out. So it was the first taste from the album and the first song release in like 4 years since the Exciter album. Good song that did not disappoint, and is still played on the tours.

    There it is, my favorite DM song. I'd wager most DM fans consider this their favorite 21st century song. The subject matter, the passing mention of God and angels, and the extended final note of the verses, alongside the surreal video, gives it such an ethereal vibe, which in my book, is a 10/10.

    You're absolutely right - in this song everything happened and right time. Great lyrics, melody arrangement and Dave sings like God... Fragile things like kids and broken marriage turned into one of the beautiful and melancholic piece - that's another side of Depeche Mode! ❤😊

    I'm glad you like this song so much cause Precious ultimately got me into Depeche Mode back then. I used to see the video play on TV when I was younger and even though I knew who this band was, I never really got too much into them until I grew older. But this song always stuck with me, it has a really special place in my heart.

    Been waiting and waiting for you to get to this one. I knew you were going to absolutely love this song. It’s definitely one of the best songs that Martin ihas written and it is an absolute Depeche Mode classic.! As many other people, I’ve told you this song is about divorce and he’s basically singing this song to his kids. I’ve been in the situation myself, so this song always hit me hard. Absolutely love it! Top 5 Mode song for me!

    • @EkimMurray-du3fi
      @EkimMurray-du3fi 4 місяці тому

      I didn’t mean to say, Martin was singing it to MISS, and he wrote the song for his kids. But I guess obviously when writing the song he did sing it, so I guess it is both Lol.

    "Angeles de alas plateadas, no deberían conocer el dolor", esta frase es épica. Según escribió Martin Gore: Mientras el significado de la mayoría de las canciones de Depeche Mode no son revelados, pues Martin Gore prefiere que las personas encuentren su propio significado, se hizo una excepción con Precious, revelando que la canción fue escrita por sus hijos y lo que ellos debieron haber pasado cuando él se estaba divorciando de su madre.

    Thought you'd love this one. Just shows how talented they are. For Martin to write this 25 years into their career. Not many can do this. Still played live now. Depeche Mode's biggest hit in chart terms and up their in You Tube plays behind Enjoy the Silence, Personal Jesus, Never Let Me Down Again and Strangelove.

    I'm an old Depeche fan and for me Precious has always taken over the legacy from ETS. DM didn't have anything like this. Airy, inspiring sound, anthemic power, purest voice. And I was just crazy when I heard Ghosts Agayn from the new Memento Mori album. It's like I'm back in time when DMs really stole my heart. Now for me this is the holy trinity - Enjoy the Silence, Precious and Ghosts Again. You can listen to this forever.

  • @Doreen3003
    @Doreen3003 5 місяців тому +1

    Precious ist einfach toll. Ich wusste, dass dir dieser Song gefallen wird. Ich musste die ganze Zeit grinsen 😁 Der Song wurde als erste Single aus dem Album veröffentlicht. Martin hatte den Song für seine drei Kinder während seiner Scheidung geschrieben. In GB Nr. 4, in D Nr. 2 😊
    Das Musikvideo wurde von Uwe Flade gedreht. Irgendwie erinnert mich die Grundlinie des Songs an Enjoy The Silence...

    As some said, this is a touching song about the consequences of divorce in Martin's children. Beautiful, but for me the hidden jewel of this record is the last song, "The darkest star". I have curiosity about your reaction when you'd listen to it.

    Their biggest hit of the 2000‘s chart-wise. I think it was a Top 5 all across Europe and even sold well in the US.
    If I may say, there was another single prior to Precious which came out between Exciter and PTA. In 2004, Depeche Mode released a Remix Album with a single remix of „Enjoy the Silence“ (by Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park). That one was also a huge hit, so 2004/2005 felt like another heyday for the band in a way.

  • @Sycophantichallenger
    @Sycophantichallenger 3 місяці тому +1

    I mean, he overcame a very significant heroin addiction and this is something of his apology / come to jesus song. At least, that is how I read it. It is no secret Dave's struggles through the years, and frequently addiction and poor decisions are resultant of something much more broken and damaged inside. The realizations that come from emerging from profound darkness and emotional brokennes are of course, profound and moving, however they're termed, but he certainly can turn a phrase in this song.

Here in the states in LA it did get some radio play, i wouldnt call it a hit single here, but then again outside of Violator singles and people are People before it, most of their tunes werent really radio hits here.

    Martin wrote three perfect pop songs in my opinion:
    enjoy the silence
    Its no good
    Precious
    That does not mean that I think that these are his best songs but they belong to his best songs. They are the most main stream popsongs I would say which are brilliant.
    The fourth one would be „ghosts again“ in my row but this was written by Richard Butler and Martin.

    Far from an amazing relastionship lol, Martin wrote this song when he was getting divorced, and he wrote this song for his children and how they were getting through the divorce (I hope you learn to trust, have faith in both of us). Also, Precious is one of their most famous songs, alongside Enjoy The Silence, Personal Jesus and Just Can't Get Enough.

    i think that the majority likes this song, because it sounds very mainstream. i even think its more mainstream than enjoy the silence. don’t get me wrong, the lyrics are great and so is the tune, i really like it, but for me it‘s nothing special and a little bit too boring 😬 maybe it’s also because i know this song like forever 😅 glad you found another banger tho 🤩

    Ok bro, I noticed you like more pop things from DM than alternative things, as for example John the Revelator and Sinner in Me ,even if it’s masterpieces totally. Wow because it’s more indie pop what you like from DM. Just don’t forgot, DM isn’t pop band and you can’t still just waiting songs for radios. And PTA so fat isn’t pop album. So I will be really curious to your reaction to Alan’s solo albums aka Recoil.But rather don’t try listening it because you will be get stroke 😂 DM get melody but Alan don’t know what is melody.And never will be know.
