You'll dance to anything by Depeche Commode...
You'll dance to anything by any bunch of stupid Europeans who come over here with their big hairdos intent on taking our money instead of giving your cash, where it belongs, to a decent American artist like myself!

You'll dance to anything

SACRED from MUSIC FOR THE MASSES.

Or DRIVE, from same.

Or I WANT YOU NOW, from same.

OK, pretty much anything from MUSIC FOR THE MASSES.

/Believe it or not, Django STRAIGHT!

I'm with submitter - Useless, from the album that nobody thought would happen after Dave's death experience

 
Peaceboy [TotalFark] 2008-07-23 04:19:23 PM  
Yeah, the Route 66 cover (the stand-alone one that's not mixed in with Behind the Wheel), Never Let Me Down, and Policy of Truth, a rotating top 3 depending on the day. "'Never again' is what you swore, the time before" - one of my favorite lyrics from that era.

One day in college my asshole roommate decided it'd be a good idea to crank up to 11 "People Are People" at around 7am, while I was enjoying my deep slumber. Hated that song ever since.

 
Sliding Carp [TotalFark] 2008-07-23 04:27:23 PM  
I don't know its name, but it's that one with one note and a monotonous beat.

Dr. Girlfriend: Sweetie, isn't that the guy from Depeche Mode?
The Monarch: Oh no, wait, where? Holy crap, he's with a girl!
Dr. Girlfriend: Oh yeah, that guy is totally straight. I saw a whole thing about him on the VH1.
The Monarch: But he's the guy from Depeche Mode. That's impossible!
Dr. Girlfriend: Straight!
The Monarch: Come on! He's in Depeche Mode!


/Oh, and I love Personal Jesus

Everything Counts

 
Weaps [TotalFark] 2008-07-23 06:43:16 PM  
All of 'em. Depeche is one of those bands in the 'auto-approve' category in my iTunes. But if I had to pick I'd go with "But not Tonight".

 
darkhorse23 [TotalFark] 2008-07-23 07:03:14 PM  
Enjoy the Silence

I saw the Decadence Tour shows several times, and while I've seen a lot of shows from front and back of the stage, these guys took the freakin cake when it came to decadence.

 
SilentStrider [TotalFark] 2008-07-23 07:05:39 PM  
Always liked Personal Jesus, but Barrel of a Gun, People Are People, and I Feel You are great too.

Saw them live in '98. Good live band.

 
BadMotivator 2008-07-23 07:24:13 PM  
This one was always my favorite.(new window)

/Sorry for the crappy version

 
Doktr Gud Brayne 2008-07-23 07:41:11 PM  
"I don't wanna sound like a queer or nothin', but I think Depeche Mode is a sweet band!"

 
Millzners 2008-07-23 08:01:47 PM  
Sorry but I still think the remix from

85.21.19.21

is better than subby's original

/as are most of the songs from that album

 
CoachBlack 2008-07-23 08:15:01 PM  
My fav DM songs are all the ones I have never heard....Which is to say 99.999% of them. shiatty pretentious crap band.

 
sketchywilly 2008-07-23 08:15:31 PM  
That one that goes "grabbing hands/grab all they can"

 
TrevorValentine 2008-07-23 08:15:43 PM  
See You, I really like the Beach Boyish interlude...

 
darkyn [TotalFark] 2008-07-23 08:18:56 PM  
sketchywilly: That one that goes "grabbing hands/grab all they can"

That would be "Everything Counts," the very first song I heard from them.

 
Gangway Fathead 2008-07-23 08:19:04 PM  
"Flexible"

 
Gangway Fathead 2008-07-23 08:22:49 PM  
Shake The Disease

 
Scientician 2008-07-23 08:36:15 PM  
Halo.

Also, a few months ago I saw an Aussie band called Infusion and they performed what was the most incredible cover of Personal Jesus I've ever heard. I've been scouring the interwebs for either a video or mp3 of that cover, but no luck yet.

 
Glitchwerks 2008-07-23 08:42:31 PM  
"Enjoy The Silence" if I have to pick a Mode song. As for best Mode remix, "Happiest Girl (Pulsating Orbital Mix)" by the Orb would be my favorite.

 
Kar98 2008-07-23 08:55:45 PM  
Old ones: Enjoy the Silence
Current ones: Martyr

Saw them in Denver, Colorado, and Munich, Germany.
Still got 5 GB worth of DeMo music in my iTunes.

/how can you pick just one?

I can't name just one...

Stripped
Here is the House

I Feel You...

hey, it's Martin's birthday, how about listing some of the songs he's sung? ;)

And happy birthday to one of the best techno songwriters there is. And apparently a very nice guy as well.

"But Not Tonight" off of BLACK CELEBRATION.

a question of time -- off black celebration. great tune.

Now you're only 15....
and you look good...
I'll take you under my wing....
somebody should...

they've persuasive ways
and you'll believe what they say
it's just a question of time
and it's running out for you

it won't be long until you do
exactly what they want you to....

You sir are correct. The K&D remix has the grooviest bass and drums.

Link (Linky Goodness!)


I also would count Shake the Disease and Everything Counts as my favorites.

 
Transpogue 2008-07-23 10:51:35 PM  
Enjoy. The. farking. Silence.

 
hitmanric 2008-07-23 10:55:22 PM  
I see a disappointing lack of Master and Servant.

Coming from a small (pop. 900) town in the prairies. Listening to the likes of DM,Erasure and New Order wasn't the most popular pastime. Nothing like people trying to threaten you for saying AC/DC was "okay".

 
TeddyRay 2008-07-23 10:57:57 PM  
Personal Jesus...not Depeche Mode's version, Johnny Cash's version.

 
tsunami2001 2008-07-23 11:02:10 PM  
My wife and I had DM's A Question of Lust as our weddings first dance together.
/we were the only ones that "got it " i think.

that song is very under rated!

Um....none.

 
danduran 2008-07-24 03:50:59 AM  
Personal Jesus - anything from Violator/Playing the Angel, really. Their best two albums - the live DVD from the Playing the Angel tour is pretty sweet too.
