Oh yes, it's another Depeche Mode thread! :) Thing is, I have an impressive collection of early Depeche Mode on vinyl and I just moved house and had my turntable fixed...so I just made up this quiz 'coz I'm at work and I'm bored. The first person able to provide all the correct anwers will receive a copy of the 7" 1985 single "It's called a heart", which is backed by the brilliant "Fly on the windscreen"! (Yes, I have two copies!) 1. How many songs did Alan Wilder write for Depeche Mode? 2. Which songs are they? 3. Which classical composer did Depeche Mode cover on the b-side of one of their 12"s? 4. What other cover-songs have they done? 5. From what song are these lyrics taken: "She was silent trying to be Like the girl who acted on the tv Always knowing when to say Wishing for a moment so that they could see"? 6. Which Warp artist have Depeche Mode used as a producer? 7. Which DM single was the first to go gold in the U.S.? 8. Which Depeche Mode single changed sides when it was released in the U.S., making the b-side the a-side and vice versa? The US label Sire apparently did this because the original a-side (one of the Mode's best singles ever, IMO!) wasn't catchy enough!!! Good Luck! |

"6. Which Warp artist have Depeche Mode used as a producer? " That would have to be the LFO guy right? Other then that question, I know nothing! |

far too hard, sorry id only be guessing. i didnt know alan wilder wrote any songs, they must be newer ones. its called a heart / fly on the windscreen is an excellent record though, especially if you have the ltd ed 12" doulbe pack muhahahaha |

The Alan Wilder songs are actually older ones... |

I already have at least two "it's called a heart" 7"-s, so don't bother sending it over. :) I think I even have the one with poster sleeve... |

So I was right about Strangelove!? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh, no! You were wrong! It was Personal Jesus, but I'm so impressed that I'll let it pass anyway :) |

So you have a lot of DM stuff on vinyl, I gather? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeh, and lots of cd's too. I have about 200 items... I know that may not sound too much, but I stopped buying DM stuff after the Violator singles... So just about everything I have is from 1981 to 1990. |

i have the depeche mode single with the beethoven piece.. little 15 cd single, i believe the beethoven cover is one of his sonatas tough questions tho! i woulda got beethoven and mark bell, i'd have to look up the rest and that's no fun! |
||||||||

I did exactly the same! Do you have the Leave in silence 7"? I'ts the only one I don't have... and do you have the BBC Trancription discs? I have one from 1984.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, i have both Transcription discs. but I don't think I have the Leave in Silence 7". I miss many older 7"... I have all the 12" though... me thinks... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have all the early 7"s except Leave in silence.. So you have both the BBC discs, that's cool! What is the 1983 Transcription disc like? Anything like the green-blue-red live tracks 12"s? I would love to hear the live version of Now, this is fun, one of my fave DM tracks ever! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
you guys are crazy!!! I have ONE CD BABEE!!! WOOHOO!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well, I'm 11 years older than you, and back then Depeche Mode were the coolest band I knew about so.....there you go! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe, yeah I know... I still like them, and want to buy more stuff... but there's just too much to buy!! |

shake the disease & its called a heart era was definately a peak for me, i lost interest in them after until violator. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Shake the disease is very neat indeed! |

i would transfer the 1983 transcription discto mp3 so you could hear it... it's just that I can't play vinyls at the moment. since I don't have a "phono" connection on my receiver, I use a small box between my vinyl player and the receiver. the box blew up last month, and I haven't yet bothered getting a new one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That would be so cool....but maybe its already out there somewhere on soulseek or similar, I've never thought about that actualy.... I'll check it out! |
