I've been in a depeche "mood" this weekend...
Music for the Masses: Fucking brilliant. Enough said.
Songs of Faith and Devotion Live: I love this album, but when I watch the "Devotional" video and see Dave all strung out looking like hell, I'm amazed that he was still able to sing so well.
"Personal Jesus" single: The acoustic version of this is brilliant..."Dangerous" is a great b-side as well.
"World in My Eyes" single: For some reason, the "Oil Tank Mix" reminds me of playing Sonic 2 on Genesis. Strange...
"Walking in My Shoes" single: This is the last DM single I can remember getting extensive radio airplay. The remixes on this one are great (particularly the "Grungy Gonads Mix" and the "Ambient Whale Mix"). "My Joy" is another fine b-side...shit, DM could make a double-CD of their b-sides alone.
"Little 15" single: Originally only released as a single in France. One of my favorite DM songs. The instrumentals on this one are also brilliant--"Stjarna" (Swedish for "star") and Alan Wilder's version of "Moonlight Sonata." Or as my mother used to call it, "That damned funeral dirge."
