oh wow, what can i say about a band thats helped me through so much crap in my life. Theyve been there for me when ive been depressed, when ive been happy, when ive been iffy, grouchy, silly...

its a beautiful combination of deep dark melodic soulful music mixed with dance beats and haunting vocals. Its has a lot of style, style that is very unique and interesting. There songs are really depressing, really dark but at the same time they are uplifting and have dance beats to them...its amazing. They are a great new wave band. They are totally different from anything else ive heard, and if you think it sounds like some other band, then they probibly copied depechemode. Because they were the first to experiment with this type of music, sounds, vocals. They are really artistic and creative.

the song 'enjoy the silence' is a good example of what im saying

they often called his group depressedmode hehe.
a bunch of depressed nerds in the 80s who made cool music that remains timeless and haunting. Also there lyrics are amazing and very beautiful. They make you think, and its very poetic as well.

i really realllllyyyyy recommend that you guys download some of depechemodes music. You wont regret it.

"Strangelove"

There'll be times
When my crimes
Will seem almost unforgivable
I give in to sin
Because you have to make this life livable
But when you think I've had enough
From your sea of love
I'll take more than another riverful
And I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile

Strangelove
Strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove
That's how my love goes
Strangelove
Will you give it to me
Will you take the pain
I will give to you
Again and again
And will you return it

There'll be days
When I stray
I may appear to be
Constantly out of reach
I give in to sin
Because I like to practice what I preach
I'm not trying to say
I'll have it all my way
I'm always willing to learn
When you've got something to teach
And I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile

Pain will you return it
I'll say it again - pain
Pain will you return it
I won't say it again

I give in
Again and again
I give in
Will you give it to be
I give in
I'll say it again
I give in

I give in
Again and again
I give in
That's how my love goes
I give in
I'll say it again
I give in

" The Things You Said "

I heard it from my friends
About the things you said
I heard it from my friends
About the things you said

But they know me better than that
They know me better than that

They know my weaknesses
I never tried to hide them
They know my weaknesses
I never denied them

I heard it from my friends
About the things you said
I heard it from my friends
About the things you said

How can a view become so twisted
How can a view become so twisted

They know my weaknesses
I never tried to hide them
They know my weaknesses
You tried them

I get so carried away
You brought me down to earth
I thought we had something precious
Now I know what it's worth

I heard it from my friends
About the things you said
I heard it from my friends
About the things you said

I've never felt so disappointed
Never felt so disappointed

They know my weaknesses
I never tried to hide them
They know my weaknesses
Thought that you liked them

They know me better than that


"Sacred"

Sacred
Holy
To put it in words
To write it down
That is walking on hallowed ground
But it's my duty
I'm a missionary

So here is my confession
It's an obsession
I'm a firm believer
And a warm receiver
And I've made my decision
This is religion
There's no doubt
I'm one of the devout

Trying to sell the story
Of love's eternal glory

Sacred
Holy
To put it in words
To write it down
That is walking on hallowed ground
But it's my duty
I'm a missionary

Spreading the news around the world
Taking the word to boys and girls
I'm a firm believer
And a warm receiver
And I will go down on my knees
When I see beauty
There's no doubt
I'm one of the devout

Trying to sell the story
Of love's eternal glory

Sacred
Holy
To put it in words
To write it down
That is walking on hallowed ground
But it's my duty
I'm a missionary

Sacred
Holy
To put it in words
To write it down
That is walking on hallowed ground

anon, i have a question

is the song ' i promise you ' depechemode ? or is it some other 80s group. I was downloading music and this was under depechemode. But i searched all the discography and this isnt a depechemode song.

' i promise you '

When you need a friend
Don't look to a stranger
You know in the end
I'll always be there

And when you're in doubt
And when you're in danger
Take a look all around
I'll be there

I'm sorry im just thinking of the right words to say
I know they dont sound the way i planed them to be
But if you wait around awhile I'll make you fall for me
I promise you, I proise you I will

I'm sorry im just thinking of the right words to say
I know they dont sound the way i planed them to be
But if i have to walk to world I'll make you fall for me
I promise you, i promise you i will.

When your day is through
And so is your temper
You know what to do
I'll always be there

Sometimes if I shout
It's not what's intended
These words just come out
With no cross to bear

I'm sorry im just thinking of the right words to say
I know they dont sound the way i planed them to be
But if you wait around awhile I'll make you fall for me
I promise you, I proise you I will

I'm sorry im just thinking of the right words to say
I know they dont sound the way i planed them to be
But if i have to walk to world I'll make you fall for me
I promise you, i promise you i will.

I gotta tell ya

I gotta tell ya

I gotta tell ya

I'm sorry im just thinking of the right words to say
I know they dont sound the way i planed them to be
But if you wait around awhile I'll make you fall for me
I promise you, I proise you I will

I'm sorry im just thinking of the right words to say
I know they dont sound the way i planed them to be
But if i have to walk to world I'll make you fall for me
I promise you, i promise you i will.

I like "Free Love"

[EvrLstngDaze]

the song 'enjoy the silence' is a good example of what im saying

that song kicks ass! :D it's a beautiful song :) ...do you know what he's saying at the end, after the period of silence when the darker sounding guitars come on... he says like on word, or one sentence, I can't quite understand what he says.

[whitelotus]

whats the second or timeing on the song where he says it ?


he says at the end ' enjoy the silence.... '
after that gap of silence

i think thats what you are talking about if im not mistaken

[EvrLstngDaze]

whats the second or timeing on the song where he says it ?

Oh how I love this song... let's give proper credit where proper credit is due, shall we? The song is actually By 'When in Rome'.... I promise you! It took me about a month of calling star 98.7 and freaking singing to them and wishing they knew what the hell I was talking about before one of the dj's finally figured out what I was babbling about. Woohoo!

When in Rome- The Promise



As for Depeche Mode... People are people so why should it be, you and I should get a-long so a-wfullyyyyyyyyyy?

:) good stuff!

[Hogg]

^LOL All that work for this song? Calling a radio station and singing to try to ID a song is some cute crap though.

This is such a song made for cheesy "romantic comedies".

Yep, I called and sang it all right. i just feel sorry for the people who had to listen. Naaah, it wasn't THAT bad =) Anyway I won concert tickets once because I just kept calling even when I wasn't listening to the radio. Some luck, huh? :D I like cheesy romantic comedies. And I like that song. Cute crap :) hehe

[whitelotus]

yeah, i had run that title on kazaa, and it came up with ' when in rome'


but thanks anyway haha
