It's not on Speak&Spel and as far as I know it was never released officialy from Mute.I think they only performed this track on their very early live.btw thanks to Koffe74.I was at this Paradiso live standing right infront of that stage.One and only DM live I've ever experienced.Damn I can't remember which synth Vince was playing(it was Moog)but Fletch had a Moog Prodigy and Martin had a Yamaha CS-10.Great essential vid!.
It's amazing that Depeche Mode was making music in 1981. Shit. I didn't start listening to them until ......1986 I believe. What a band. thanx for uploading.
I saw pictures and images of these shows back in the mid-80's and it influenced me style and aesthetics - wise, but I never thought I'd get ot see footage like this! Thank You!
Ooops.... am a fan of Bryan Ferry since 1976 and came across this video by research of BF-vids. Never knew DM covered this song?!?!?!? Amazing!!!! And btw: I love DM aswell!!! (but never was a fan-fan, that's why maybe)
@MAYNOCK1974 No they never released any albums before Speak and Spell. Neither did they release any singles before "Dreaming of me". I have however heard a lot of their early demos and pre-studio recording version of songs which ended up on their early albums. It is very likely many of those were written before Speak and Spell was released. Martin Gore said he wrote "See You", when he was 16, but it was never included in Speak and Spell, however when Vince Clark left the band it was released
grandpa pants. I love this song when done by the Everly Bros or Bryan Ferry (especially him) but I don't think the fabulous Depeche Mode gives it any heart.
Route 66 was a Barry Troup song and that was an amazing cover version. But ive never seen this before. There must be a vault full of unreleased stuff they've done. Be interesting to hear it.
Yeah,i know DM did a few covers such as Route 66,Dirt(I Feel Loved B-side),Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata & the on we're talking 'bout.But only the first 3 songs were recorded.For instance Simply Red did much more!
Thanks for sharing this, I always thought it's a shame this track didn't made it to a b-side or even on Speak&Spell. This live-version seems really uptempo to me. I heard slower versions on bootlegs.
A '77 fan? Whoa. Wait. Weren't they originally "Composition of Sound"? Formed in '79. Just for the info, this performance was recorded when I was just 25 days old. LOL
DM didn't made much cover songs.I'm just discovering this one and it's so aaaawfully bad!! Tough i realy love them and anyway they didn't wrote this song so it' ok :°) Get ready for their new upcoming album "Sounds of the Universe" on April 20th,fellas!
I was under the assumption that fletch made the swap long before this as I have a performance from Southend on sea technical college from Nov. 1980 wasn't he on his bass synth then ? Another cover they do is "I like it" another 50's cover & that's played on a live show ( in Germany i think ) early '82 just after See You is released
thank you for this upload what a treasure. Depeche Mode is my favorite band. First heard this 18years ago
Depeche Mode for 30 Jahren, einer der ersten Auftritte ... Süß!
who knew that almost 30 years later these younglings would be much better and still singing?
tape machine - priceless!
What a Rare find.
Such a unique sound, can't compare it to anything before or after it! that's why i love these rarities, TV Set rocks too
i like dave's haircut, it's look like a friend of mine, 80's!!!
Thank you very much for this glorious and rare video!!

greay old school mode!
***Me encantaría haber estado ahí!!!***
Extraordinary, never seen before, very good song, but It seems to be that they were making a DEVO tribute at that time , haha
I agree 100%!
WOW Amazing! I thought I would never see something like this... thank you for sharing this!!!
Dave is adorable! Those poor kids dressed like squares!
whoa old school lol : ) i love how the camera person is rocking out w the zoom
It was a Bryan Ferry (Roxy Music) song from 1976, this version is so cool!!
Wonderful traditional DM from a '77 fan!!!
It's amazing, I love this old song! And Dave is LOL :D:D:D
Roxy Music in versione elettronica...mai visto questo video, decisamente interessante, anche per capire le radici dei Depeche Mode.
this is awesome! you could even see the tape machine i've heard them talk about a few times in interviews.
Wow.
I'm sure if you dig some tv archives you can find even more amazing videos.
Yes - this is amazing video and its priceless.
Speechless!!! Cheers Koffe :-)
Geile Klamotte!!! :-)
wOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOw !!!!!!!!! the re so cute ;)
OH. MY. GOD.
ffs, I was there :-)
Wow, I was 11 back then...
You should see the Bryan Ferry Version its brilliant
@MAYNOCK1974 Yes, and the awesome song Addiction (Ghost Of Modern Time) is on one, you can find the album under filestube
OMG....how old is that !!??? very rare...thanks for the upload
omg. ,. if this was back in 81?? that made him 19 yrs and me only 12!!! sick!!!! : )
Oh my God... how did you find this video??? I love it! Dave's pants cracks me up! LOL Depeche Mode forever...
Imagine if Depeche Mode in this early sound did Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division! Certainly Dave's dancing reminds me of Ian Curtis
I believe that the Everly Brothers made the original song
grandpa pants. I love this song when done by the Everly Bros or Bryan Ferry (especially him) but I don't think the fabulous Depeche Mode gives it any heart.
Route 66 was a Barry Troup song and that was an amazing cover version. But ive never seen this before. There must be a vault full of unreleased stuff they've done. Be interesting to hear it.
"TV Set" is uploaded too. Mayby I will upload more.
POST MORE from the show!!!
Yeah,i know DM did a few covers such as Route 66,Dirt(I Feel Loved B-side),Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata & the on we're talking 'bout.But only the first 3 songs were recorded.For instance Simply Red did much more!
Yes the original is Everly Brothers, but i think they based this one on the 1976 Roxy Music one
81 i wasn't in this world hehe how old is it ....
@soundofmetal It is not released on any DM records. You can only find the song on bootlegs
@modeberry i totally agree
I was half expecting this to be a cover of the New Order song
Thanks for sharing this, I always thought it's a shame this track didn't made it to a b-side or even on Speak&Spell. This live-version seems really uptempo to me. I heard slower versions on bootlegs.
I am so facking in love with tape recorder, that I am actually wanna marry it!
A '77 fan? Whoa. Wait. Weren't they originally "Composition of Sound"? Formed in '79. Just for the info, this performance was recorded when I was just 25 days old. LOL
C.O.S.allias DEPECHE MODE.dANKE ,,,!,DM 87.auf...good evening ....thanks good night
It's too bad that you don't have the best song, (Shout!) on this series from Amsterdam
DM didn't made much cover songs.I'm just discovering this one and it's so aaaawfully bad!! Tough i realy love them and anyway they didn't wrote this song so it' ok :°) Get ready for their new upcoming album "Sounds of the Universe" on April 20th,fellas!
@Koffe74 I wish they would record it officially.
The Cure did a cover of Love Will Tear Us Apart
Cool! This has got to be the oldest video I have seen from them. I think.
Everly Brothers wrote it
Status Quo Covered it
Then Mr Ferry did the same
Satus Quos is amazing!
Then Depeche Mode
I love it!
Check out Synthesizer Tribute to Depeche Mode!
I was under the assumption that fletch made the swap long before this as I have a performance from Southend on sea technical college from Nov. 1980 wasn't he on his bass synth then ? Another cover they do is "I like it" another 50's cover & that's played on a live show ( in Germany i think ) early '82 just after See You is released
Das orginal ist von Everly Brothers zurick in 50'
Can you hear the similarity between this song and "New Life".
I guess "New Life" was evolved from this.
@liedowninthelight they used tape machine for a very long time.. you can see it on 101 concert..
@simonlebon3 It does sound a lot like "New Life", but I believe this is actually an Everly Brothers cover.
It's a cover of an old song by another artist/group, so maybe that's why.
@Koffe74 And that is a shame, cause Price of Love, and I Like It are such unique covers.
Das Orginal ist von Everly brothers
This was back when Simon cowell was the lead singer
@strupcza i agreed
dave must laugh to loud when he watches those videos on youtube
all the band beginnin like a chet...
good video.
LOL... yeah I know what you mean. The camera crew sucked at filming this but hey...it was 1981 after all.
Like Joy Division, without the sudden stop
@ostenolamon i think i heard 'hello' :-/
ich kenn den song garnicht^^ hmm, aber geil issa schon xD
@wendymoody
Look at Dave's pants! Now we know where Simon Cowell got his inspiration from! *LOL*
is this song available for purchase anywhere?
XD esto sería lo qué vió? Daniel Miller & luego los contrató (?! 🙂
what's the song ? i can't find on tube
It's a cover of a song called 'The Price of Love'
Ernest..
