You know a band is truly iconic when in the comment section it is nothing but a sea of different people from all parts of the world coming together in celebration like a massive wave crashing upon our collective heart.
Greetings from Romania! I love Depeche Mode since I was a little girl, like 3 years old thanks to my dad. He brought me my first tape with Violator album and from that day I fell in love with Depeche Mode. Now I am almost 28 years old and I still love them truly!
I'm 50 years old now and have loved DM since I was 15. They have certainly stood the test of time. I have too many favourites to name, but this is up there with the best of their creations. Long live DM ❤
1991 I lived in a small town in Brazil. No decent radio. No music stores. No internet. Terrible local TV. But one night it was raining, I was 12 and home alone. A channel was playing the 101 Rose Bowl show. I never had a clue that such coolness was possible. I was enthralled. The music. The band. The crowd. I managed to grab a K7 with the singles some months later. It was so different and exciting, it was difficult to have access to these materials. Depeche made history, one of the coolest bands ever. Thank you for adding magic to my life. I love all of you.
I know exactly what you mean. . .also from a small town in Brazil but in the US for the past 32 yrs. . .I had the honor to watch them play live in Cleveland, OH back in Oct '93 - incredible energy - cheers bro
I love South America. I spent 3 months in Brazil. I was surprised that Depeche were not very big there. In Argentina and Chile they are HUGE. And Mexico, too.
Let's not forget the Pet Shop Boys, ounce for ounce, their staying power has been greater than Depeche Mode IMHO. DM used to be my #1 but since Alan left, there's something... missing, sadly. Don't get me wrong, they're still iconic as hell but they've dropped to #3 for me.
Szerintem már senki nem kérdőjelezi meg a DM nagyságát...Így azt sem ítélhetik el aki hallgatja...de ha mégis, nem kell velük foglalkozni...Ők ezt nem érthetik-érezhetik...ez a mi közös szerelmünk ... örökké...Isten áldjon Depeche Mode rajongó testvérem!!!
Oh my goodness! At 57 years old... I remember working in a mall record store and getting the Speak and Spell demo record. No one liked it. They gave it to me. I have been listening to that record for decades! And Buy every Depeche Mode release since then and Love, live, cry, laugh, fight and thrive. Yello and Depeche Mode are my medicine all my "adult" life! Thank you!!!!!
"Speak and Spell" along with "A Broken Frame" are two amazing DM records. Those fresh faced lads didn't know it then, but they were embarking on a great long trip. ;)

In the late 90s this was my band and my band only…not to share. It was my little secret I kept to myself…like a diary for some reason. I felt like DM was meant for me and me only. Touched my soul then and still does.
Until now, I didn't really pay attention to Depeche Mode's Memento Mori. After listening to this Masterpiece, I just can say: please, Dave and Martin, do whatever it takes to live some more centuries; thank you for saving Art and keep doing it, no matter what.
This comments section is a trip of nostalgia and emotion, and I'm no different. I was introduced to synthesizers by my dad through bands like Depeche Mode, Beck and Tool. Depeche Mode was always my favourite, and it reminds me so much of him. Dad, rest in peace knowing one of your favourite bands is STILL going strong all these years, and I wish you could hear it
I was introduced to Depeche Mode in 1991 Lithuania when I was 18 w 101. I was completely enthralled. I’m 50 now living in the US and still here, still loving them
best song written by the best frontman. We love you Dave!!! loved how at the concert the other day this song debuted and there was a moment when he smiled at the crowd. Surely he saw that his composition was being well received and that made him feel satisfied. Thank you Dave Gahan for continuing to make us happy with your talent
Dave Gahan is one helluva talented guy! My fave front man & oh how he makes me melt & swoon with his voice, still!🥵🥵🔥🔥 I ❤ Dave & DM! My #1 fave band for sure!
Taking off the rose tinted glasses, there was a lot of crap music in the 80’s too. There’s a lot of very good music about today, but you have to work a bit harder to find it.
Probably the best Memento Mori song. Visual expresses an emptiness of our times, a loneliness of human being. Since the pandemic started, everything goes wrong. Now we hear just about wars and fear. We have to move forward, before we drown, wake up people!
@@locsbcn Dang! That's high praise. I think it's the best since _Playing the Angel,_ and far superior to _Ultra_ and _Exciter._ But one of their best? That means shoving other greats lower on the list. Seems...blasphemous.
Hearing Martin in the background in the chorus is just awesome. My favorite song of this album, have been waiting for it to finally be released as a single.
I just turned 44 and this is easily one of the best birthday gifts I’ve ever received. I’m so thankful to have gotten to enjoy their music throughout most of my life. No group or singer touches my soul the way Depeche Mode does.
@@user-ss7ol9qu2h Listening to these guys gives me a flood of dopamine every time. I don’t need drugs. I just need Depeche Mode. This was an absolute STUNNER. Goosebumps!🫠🫠🫠
Over 40 years and still setting the new standards in music and live performances i hope they contuniue on for another 30years God Bless Dave , Martin , Vince , Andy and Alan
Dave war, ist und er wird immer top bleiben mit dieser außergewöhnlichen Stimme, denn er fühlt jede einzelne Note und das ist es, was ihn ausmacht und Martin liefert die passenden Songs.❤
I've been thinking I could come back home So how would that be, you and I alone? All alone? I have a feeling, you're not on my side There's a distance between you and I You and I First we stand up, then we fall down We have to move forward, before we drown, we drown I feel so naked, standing on the shore, are you sure? Nothing's out there, nothing else no more, no more First we stand up, then we fall down We have to move forward, before we drown We drown We drown We drown We drown First we stand up, then we fall down We have to move forward, before we drown
Ditto. Might’ve been only since August 2022 since I really got into them, but like I said elsewhere, it feels like I’ve been a fan of them my whole life.
This particular song helped me to recover from depression and grief from a personal loss of a dear friend of mine. It was in my head rent free as I was traveling to Vegas by bus from Hermosillo to their concert last March 30th. Thank you Dave and Martin, for putting your souls into this album. Edit February 2nd: thank you guys. Somehow I feel less alone with my silent grief after seeing so much love from everyone. Can't thank you enough!
This song kind of saved my life last year. If you’d said to me last March that I’d be healed and happy again and looking forward to seeing them play it live in two weeks, I’d have cried. Thankyou DM.
So, ähnlich ging es mir vor einigen Jahren auch und dann bekam ich zu Weihnachten Karten geschenkt. Ich habe geweint. Depeche Mode, begleiten mich, seit meiner Jugend und es wird nie aufhören. ❤
Yes!! This album best represents what phenomenal singers they both are. I love that Dave has a lot more vocal range , their voices complement each other well.
……..like a fine wine, just keeps getting better with time. I’ve only seen them once, during the Singles tour back in ‘98 and it was an absolute religious experience. Now both my kids, 20 and 14, are fans and i just hope I get a chance to take them.
These types of comment sections are the best! The dimensions of the writers and the composer collide to bring out another dimension, as if they hold each other to different imaginations, but still create something together.
Every hair on my body stands up at 2:50 until the end of the song even after hearing it multiple times. It's the best arrangement of vocals and instruments that they've ever done imo.
@@user-pi6gz9ey4v Yes, it is similar, but I think it is just coincidence. D. Mode's huge catalog of music is undeniably innovative and they surely aren't going to start robbing a backing lyric (1 word repeated) at this stage. ''Yeah, yeah, yeah...'' is a primal sound to lift the peak of a song, and i bet that many musicians have been naturally inspired to use it before Nirvana did.
I was "recruited" into the DM fandom back in 1984, as a 10-year-old. My older bro was in his room playing some really synth-heavy music that he borrowed from the neighbor down the street. I asked about it, and he played "People are People"and "Everything Counts " for me. Forty years later, I've seen the band twice: once in San Diego and once at the Coachella Music & Arts Festival. Depeche Mode was the soundtrack of my high school years. Most of the long-term friendships I have with people, were formed because of a mutual love of the band. We listen to most of their songs with a similar reverence to the kind that religious people have for worship music and hymns. I mourned the recent death of Andy Fletcher like I would the passing of a family member. Long live the music of Depeche Mode.
The new album is maybe one of their best. And, honestly, I don't automatically say that just because a fave band releases a new album after awhile. Something about this album is hypnotic. I put it on my running play list.
This whole album is pure vocal perfection. Dave and Martins voices complement each other unlike past albums. There’s a deeper connection between each other that is so apparent in this album and on stage. Their voices are euphoric!
This song saved my life, at the worst moment of my life where anxiety made me unable to eat for fear of drowning, the lyrics came into my life and appeased my anxiety.
Zasto su tako dobri svih ovih 40 i nesto godina zato sto bend koji niko nemoze kopirati ili zameniti jednostavno to su oni jedinstveni i neponovljivi... 🌹🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴
The best song from the album. With it being performed live now, I hope it stays in the tour's setlist. I so hope, it will be recorded for an official live recording.
In 140 days I will be 50 years old. I have always listened to music and I will continue to listen to it, but this is the only band that has accompanied me since I was 15 and it will remain so until the end of my life or theirs.
I've usually been into guitar driven rock music but somehow always loved this band. They are so talented and their music always seems to have a haunting quality to it.
Esta canción me viene como anillo al dedo🖤 el video es simplemente asombroso, las olas son como los golpes de realidad que te la vida y sino los afrontas te ahogas... Muchas gracias por estar siempre en los momentos más duros de mi vida Depeche mode, los amo eternamente!!!
@@touch2111 X2, parece ser que cobra más sentido las canciones o más bien todo el álbum Memento Mori, perdí a un ser muy querido💔 y tengo que asimilar la muerte
Fletch forever, Depeche Mode forever. This group has been a major part of the soundtrack of my life, from lonely adolescents, lovelorn, heartbroken adulthood, to finding peace in myself and my life.
BRAVO 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 This is literally the best "new" song you've put out seriously! It sounds so much like the older stuff that it's ridiculous. Just saw you guys live a few months back.....you're like a fine wine 🍷 you just get better with age. I love you guys & always will you are the soundtrack to my life. Forgive me I'm overdosing on Nostalgia here.❤👑🎶
This album and Violator are the soundtrack to my holidays in Japan. My lady always plays Depeche Mode Driving down the road to the mountains and temples with my loved one, listening to this music. It's magic. Music can really bring people together all over the world.
That sounds wonderful and magical. I am 47 now and as I think back across my life, each decade I can remember listening to Depeche Mode Albums. So many memories come flooding back in so many moments of my life encapsulated by the Depeche Mode soundtrack.Peace love and good blessings to you always.
@@jeremycasper8686 well thank you! I appreciate your insight and your sharing with me. I am glad that we all have some great memories. Peace be with you.
One of the best tracks on Memento Mori. A poignant song when you are the crossroads of what to do next and when the feeling of emptiness sets in. And somewhere along the songs portrays and amazing sense of vulnerability. A classic DM track.
You know a band is truly iconic when in the comment section it is nothing but a sea of different people from all parts of the world coming together in celebration like a massive wave crashing upon our collective heart.

One of the best live bands around.
Depeche Mode are timeless. Not many bands like them still putting out great and relevant music
TFF had a great release last year...Tipping Point album.....80's live on

Fine wine ....they are amazing
Shriekback is too!
Dave's voice is perfection
I agree. Also enjoy Martin singing harmony on the chorus.
Sweetest perfection to call my own,the slightest correction couldn't finally hone.
Dave and Martin both have amazing voices .
Absolutely ❣️
Une voix toujours très belle, virile, et qui peut être très douce, comme dans cette chanson. A sweet perfection ! Bien cordialement.

DM, Erasure, and Pet Shop Boys were and are still are my favorite trio. :)
I'm sorry but depeche mode have changed and a lot .this album was co.writen with someone else. Martin has never done that before.
havent changed a bit, thats a bit of a stretch isnt it?
Change is growing.

Still sad about Andy. And Sinéad.
80s kid here. Yes, yes, yes. Bring back all the bands and artists from the 80s; music really needs it right now because it's dying and drowning.
Taking off the rose tinted glasses, there was a lot of crap music in the 80’s too.
There’s a lot of very good music about today, but you have to work a bit harder to find it.
I listened to some of OMD's new stuff recently. Was pretty good. But I agree with you. We need to look hard to find good new music.
Duran-anniversaryyyyyy....dance macabre....depeche-momento mori. bananarama-STAY WILD....excellent songs.
Probably the best Memento Mori song. Visual expresses an emptiness of our times, a loneliness of human being. Since the pandemic started, everything goes wrong. Now we hear just about wars and fear. We have to move forward, before we drown, wake up people!

Now that Before We Drown is an official single, I think it has been added to the 2024 set list for good. ❤
I wish they played it when I saw them at the Forum in LA. The mood is so epic on this song. Reminds me of some songs from Sounds of the Universe.
Is it an official single?
@@mjg1544 I believe every new video is a single, so another "white" remix-maxi single" will be released soon.
this is not just music to please the consumer...this is true art straight from eternity.
This song evokes so much emotion 😢
Dave's voice is getting better .This is a such beautiful moving track.
Absolutely incredible song, fantastic video!
DEPECHE MODE FOREVER!!!
I find this song sad, reminds me of a lost dad, wanting his life back. The opening lines so powerful.
To me more like a husband who strayed or left, now at a crossroads though yes I get what you are saying.
On some days the youtube recommendation works flawless, and today is such day!
This whole album is pure vocal perfection. Dave and Martins voices complement each other unlike past albums. There’s a deeper connection between each other that is so apparent in this album and on stage. Their voices are euphoric!
This song saved my life, at the worst moment of my life where anxiety made me unable to eat for fear of drowning, the lyrics came into my life and appeased my anxiety.
In the 80's I was a scrappy, lonely teenager from a small town in South Africa. Depeche Mode saved Me! ❤I still love them. ❤
How it is possible to write after 40 years another top song like this? Amazing.
Nothing beats Depeche+Corbjin aesthetic! 🖤
💯 Ultimate team
The BEST song on an already astonishingly wonderful album.
Always you song too my friend 🙏🫡
Damn, they still got it!
Truly epic vocal as always ❤
This is classic depeche mode, dark, deep and smooth.. Perfect tune!
Zasto su tako dobri svih ovih 40 i nesto godina zato sto bend koji niko nemoze kopirati ili zameniti jednostavno to su oni jedinstveni i neponovljivi... 🌹🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴🤴
Amin pobratime🤘
The Best of depeche mode
It's taken me years but eventually saw them live for 1st time at the O2 London recently, absolutely brilliant live!
2023 has been the toughest year of my life and I'm not sure if Memento Mori has been breaking my heart or healing it.
2024 will be better🎉
Hugs🤗 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Believe that it is healing it ❤
Same here…Depeche Mode somehow highlighted or cured our pain. Let’s hope 2024 or wounds can heal 🙏🏽
Hang in there, you’re never alone ❤
Oh man! This was the sound I was waiting from Depeche mode. Dark, sweet with an epic voice and industrial beats. Love it.
A worthy track, even at their age, brilliant!
Ich bin süchtig nach Depeche Mode.... Toller Song .....🖤❤️🖤❤️
The best song from the album. With it being performed live now, I hope it stays in the tour's setlist. I so hope, it will be recorded for an official live recording.
Oh man this is the best I've heard from them in years..! Depeche are true icons.
I'm 52 and still adore them like i did when i was a kid ❤
One of the best tracks on one of their best albums. Haunting and uplifting. Had the pleasure of hearing it live in Barcelona 2024.
Best song on the Album. I am glad they chose this as a single. It's so good in everyway a Masterpiece!!!
In 140 days I will be 50 years old. I have always listened to music and I will continue to listen to it, but this is the only band that has accompanied me since I was 15 and it will remain so until the end of my life or theirs.
I'm 50 on 4th of March ! They were the band of my teenage years.
4 months for me! Love DM so much.
I've usually been into guitar driven rock music but somehow always loved this band. They are so talented and their music always seems to have a haunting quality to it.
I am 60 and love them. Listened since living in Germany in the 80's !
Those were the times & these are the times. ;)
Esta canción me viene como anillo al dedo🖤 el video es simplemente asombroso, las olas son como los golpes de realidad que te la vida y sino los afrontas te ahogas...
Muchas gracias por estar siempre en los momentos más duros de mi vida Depeche mode, los amo eternamente!!!
X2 🥲
X3, es mi canción favorita del disco
❤
Mi favorita es la wagging tongue pero Dios santo , es mi vida en este momento😢
@@touch2111 X2, parece ser que cobra más sentido las canciones o más bien todo el álbum Memento Mori, perdí a un ser muy querido💔 y tengo que asimilar la muerte
Fletch forever, Depeche Mode forever. This group has been a major part of the soundtrack of my life, from lonely adolescents, lovelorn, heartbroken adulthood, to finding peace in myself and my life.
Pareil pour moi. 🖤🙏
BRAVO 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 This is literally the best "new" song you've put out seriously! It sounds so much like the older stuff that it's ridiculous. Just saw you guys live a few months back.....you're like a fine wine 🍷 you just get better with age. I love you guys & always will you are the soundtrack to my life. Forgive me I'm overdosing on Nostalgia here.❤👑🎶
The best song of the Memento Mori album
I simply adore Depeche Mode! ❤
This album and Violator are the soundtrack to my holidays in Japan.
My lady always plays Depeche Mode
Driving down the road to the mountains and temples with my loved one, listening to this music. It's magic. Music can really bring people together all over the world.
That sounds wonderful and magical. I am 47 now and as I think back across my life, each decade I can remember listening to Depeche Mode Albums. So many memories come flooding back in so many moments of my life encapsulated by the Depeche Mode soundtrack.Peace love and good blessings to you always.
@@jeremycasper8686 well thank you! I appreciate your insight and your sharing with me. I am glad that we all have some great memories. Peace be with you.
Violator to me is the pinnacle, as a synth nerd.
@@leftmono1016 I agree with you
I'll love them forever ❤
My favorite song from Memento Mori
Thank god my dad showed raised me with this band always playing as the background of my childhood memories.
When I first listened to the album this song was one of the ones I immediately liked.
Same here.
This is: MASTERPIECE!!!!! 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
For me, this is the best song on Memento Mori.
One of the best tracks on Memento Mori. A poignant song when you are the crossroads of what to do next and when the feeling of emptiness sets in. And somewhere along the songs portrays and amazing sense of vulnerability. A classic DM track.
