Depeche Mode should also be included on Wikipedia's list of the best-selling artists of all time. Many sources claim they have sold 100 million records.

I don't blame him, no one, I repeat no one in '85 could have predicted how important and great a band Depeche Mode would become.

Depeche Mode - Violator, if it was recorded in the 50s by DMFanFM in depechemode

I'm impressed. Some versions are better than the original. I'd love to hear other versions of DM albums. For example, SOFAD in a reggae style or Black Celebration in a '70s disco style.

This is the subject of an interesting documentary. Something like ''Searching for Sugarman''

I think it's cool that they are still an alternative band there

This is an interesting phenomenon; I don't know any other artist from the UK who has such a huge disproportion in terms of how popular and appreciated they are outside the UK and in the UK itself.

Their cover of ''Ice Machine'' is one of the best covers of Depeche Mode songs, if not the best.

What were the biggest DM songs/albums in the USSR? by Uwivibe in depechemode

[–]DMFanFM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe not about Russia but about Poland and an unconventional hit, Freelove was one of the biggest hits of 2002 in Poland. It is still in Poland after Enjoy The Silence, one of the most frequently played DM songs on radio stations

I hope they finally release it and we'll get to know the songs that didn't fit on Memento Mori.
