Depeche Mode were truly pioneers in the synth-pop genre. My first ever live concert in the early 80's...an unforgettable experience! Good song choice. You might want to try an early tune of theirs such as "Just Can't Get Enough" next, a completely different vibe!
Dang it! You are hitting my favs today. This is a band you must explore- so industrial sounding- but profound lyrics. Behind the Wheel and The World in My Eyes are the two sexiest songs ever- (blushing old lady of 67 😬). People are People is a great socially conscious song- Soul with Me-- frankly just too many to mention
I just saw them live last week, and they are definitely a band that thrives in concert. The album is the clear recording, but they bring life and soul to the stage. If you check out more, react to the concerts
"Everything Counts" was the first Depeche Mode song that I remember hearing back in 1983, or thereabouts, right before "People Are People" broke big. So listening to Depeche Mode always reminds me of high school in some way or another, even though "Personal Jesus" dropped long after I graduated. When you're ready for more from them, check out those two songs along with some of these -- "Just Can't Get Enough", "Master and Servant", "Blasphemous Rumours", "Policy of Truth", and "Never Let Me Down Again". "Never Let Me Down Again", in particular, features a very polished arrangement that sounds great in the car driving fast down the freeway in the summer with the windows rolled down. The piano in that one bounces between speakers in the bridge as some of the violins and synths do in later bridges along with the backing vocals in the fade out. But seek out a high quality audio version of the studio recording or you might miss out on those subtleties.
So many tracks to choose from their 40 year career. This was a huge hit both sides of the Atlantic and has become a firm live favourite. But here’s just a few from their catalog that’s worth checking out to show their variety over the years, right up to this year’s Memento Mori album: Home Before We Drown Blasphemous Rumours Walking In My Shoes Get The Balance Right Strangelove Precious Cover Me Everything Counts Stripped Those are just singles. Their albums are worth diving into as well. But one thing at a time :-)
Depeche Mode has a huge catalogue of great songs. The rabbit hole runs deep my friend. Since you mentioned blasphemous, you might want to check out their song Blasphemous Rumours. It has more amazing sounds you’ve probably never heard before.
First time hearing this band. Liked it. This is why I love reaction channels. They intorduce new music to some one like me who has no patience to listen to the radio. Thank you.
On the same album, policy of truth, and world in my eyes both are epic ! serious bro two of my all time favorites! Honestly, the whole album is the best synth pop album of all time, every song kills . Pure headphone bliss!
Best Band. Some recommendations: Never Let Me Down Again (1987), I Feel You (1993), World In My Eyes (1990), Stripped (1986), People Are People (1984). There is more... ;)
Go back to the early Depeche Mode. 😉 ...Also, check out Kraftwerk. Stuff like Autobahn, The Model, The Robots, Pocket Calculator, The Man Machine, Trans Europe Express, Tour de France, etc.. ❤
it's not against religion btw, it's acually very religious. Giving your own personal god a great tune. and I suppose... not religion.... it's you.... reach out n touch faith. Lift up the receiver............ I'll make you a believer. Reach out.
"Policy of Truth" is probably my favorite Depeche Mode song. "People Are People" is another big one from them.
The Violator album is a masterpiece. ❤❤
The genre is Depeche Mode. The closest you'll get to this is Pet Shop Boys. Both are similar but a little different, and both are very interesting.

Absolutely! I saw them last April at the very beginning of the tour, in San Antonio. They were amazing! 💜
Love It!!💜💜💜
Try "Enjoy the Silence "

Those are just singles. Their albums are worth diving into as well. But one thing at a time :-)
Straight out of Basildon, Essex, England

Thanks! Policy of Truth is another good ole' '80;s song! He is talking about televangelists who are taking money from people at home!!
My understanding is that many of the lyrics were lifted directly from a televangelist they saw on late night t.v. one time...
My favorite pick me up song by them is “Just Can’t Get Enough”. I hope everyone is having a great week. -Amber
Feeling unknown
And you're all alone
Flesh and bone
By the telephone
Lift up the receiver
I'll make you a believer
The entire Violator album by them is excellent. Go for "World In My Eyes" or "Policy Of Truth"..
This is such a good song about addiction. It's a close second to The Ruts Love in Vain. I'm so glad he managed to get off that crap.
Great 80's selection Biz. Lots to explore here.
Such a great tune
Depesche Mode is the bomb.
Speaking of blasphemous, they have a song called Blasphemous Rumours and it is fire.
Best Band. Some recommendations: Never Let Me Down Again (1987), I Feel You (1993), World In My Eyes (1990), Stripped (1986), People Are People (1984). There is more... ;)
Its a fair question... 🤣💯😎
Amazing
Pure gods
There's a band called Broken Peach that does a FIRE cover of this. I actually prefer it to the original. Check it out. ✌️🤘
my best song with Dm is Photographic
Please more react Depeche Mode.. bang
1:11
Gotta watch them live...so good. Start with Enjoy The Silence live in Berlin. Awesome. You will not be disappointed, I promise!
Reach out and touch Dave!
Go back to the early Depeche Mode. 😉 ...Also, check out Kraftwerk. Stuff like Autobahn, The Model, The Robots, Pocket Calculator, The Man Machine, Trans Europe Express, Tour de France, etc.. ❤
Marilyn Manson did a cover of this ,and is probably one of my favorite songs by him.I like better than Depeche Mode's release.
Please do Depeche Mode’s live recorded in studio version of ‘CORRUPT’. Please, I said Please!
I think this song was about the TV preachers in US
Correct .. it’s ripping them …
😮😊❤
Blasphemous? You know Johnny Cash did a cover of this 😀
it's not against religion btw, it's acually very religious. Giving your own personal god a great tune. and I suppose... not religion.... it's you.... reach out n touch faith. Lift up the receiver............ I'll make you a believer. Reach out.
God isn't religious.
to say the least.
Just can't get enough-great pop song
