Composition of Sound was formed in 1980 in Basildon, Essex,
by guitarist/vocalists Andy Fletcher and Martin Gore and
keyboardist Vince Clarke. After recruiting David Gahan, the
group abandoned their guitars for synthesizers, changed the
band's name, and became an all-electronic band entitled
Depeche Mode. For this unusual approach, Depeche Mode
earned a loyal London following, and within a year of their
formation, were signed to Mute Records. Depeche Mode's
first single "Dreaming of Me" was a minor U.K. hit. It was
followed by "New Life", which climbed to No.11, and by
"Just Can't Get Enough", which cracked the British Top Ten.
Speak & Spell, Depeche Mode's debut album, was released in
November of 1981.
Review about Depeche Mode Wrong all of you | Reviewer: Macarena
------ About the song Wrong performed by Depeche Mode
Pfff... it has been 4 days since I went to their concert here in Chile and all I have to say is that this is one of those things that I will never forget in my life. I'm still excited and I can't stop thinking about Dave's voice and all the talent of Martin and Andy. They're awesome and about their last album, I don't think is better than the older ones, but a dissapointing album? Definitely not.
I love you DM!
Come back to Chile,please :D

martin gore says that he wrote this song 4 his child 'cause during he was writing the playing angel's lyrics...he was getting through a divorce..so he felt he needed to do something about the emotions his child was feeling.....and he decide to put them in the lyrics....Such a beautiful way to explain the awful truth of reality i think....he's just a genious

------ About the song Perfect performed by Depeche Mode
this song sounds as if it was written about my girlfriend and me...we love each other so much we could spend a lifetime with each other BUT we can't be together for reasons I don't want to disclose...each time I hear this song (and I listen it a lot) I think about Her...the Lady of my life and how I'd like to spend with her every minute...I'm sure she feels the same and all the time Ithink about how brilliant would it be if that ''problem'' wouldn't exist which isn't even between us...I know I'll love her forever

The Sequel | Reviewer: Ruiner13
------ About the song Sometimes performed by Depeche Mode
I see this song as a sequel to the preceding album's "Somebody." Both begin with the same prefix, and both carry the general idea.
A beautiful song, not only vocally and lyrically, but musically as well.

To the innocents | Reviewer: Luz
------ About the song Precious performed by Depeche Mode
This is a song wrote for the innocents left behind in every relationship that comes to an end: sons and daughters.The writer asks himself what have they done to their child,if they have hurt him with their decision. Then he tries to explain to his child the reasons why things didn't work with his mother and he hopes all this damage can`t get his child. So, he says to his child that he has to trust in them because after all they are their parents and they love him so much, and begs him to love his mother and his father in the same way ( ..."and keep room in your heart for two...."). This is a beautiful song
Angle and state of view | Reviewer: Kajo
------ About the song Damaged People performed by Depeche Mode
When I first listened to this track, I didnt enjoyed it. I didnt even finished listening to it, because it didnt interested me...
Until the day I got high.
I was listening to Depeche Mode while walking back home at night. When this song came next I gave it a chance.
I thought it was like 10 minutes that Id been listening to it. Ive never looked at (or heard) this song from this angle and this state. And I felt really divine
the law of yhwh | Reviewer: the few
------ About the song John The Revelator performed by Depeche Mode
the key clue in the song is tht israel and muslim are holier than christian.
hence, for those who bother to REALLY read the scriptures right down to hebrew translation (the originator) knows tht DM is saying christians dont even know god's character compared to the other 2 religion bcos they dont live the law EXPLICITLY commanded by god of israel.(cunningly misinterpreted frm hebrew to english bibles).
Christians are lazy followers further lulled by sunday 1 hour club mentality. Thts why the "grace" message is so sweet to them. "If u sin its ok jesus wash yr sins away" bullshit.
Wrong is Right | Reviewer: Paintime
------ About the song Wrong performed by Depeche Mode
The whole album is the suck. I am a long time fan that has been to every local concert of theirs and this is the one that is not even close to their potential. I actually wish they would change their sound more, they sound the same in the last several albums.
Demo recomended | Reviewer: Colorless Winter
------ About the song Nothing's Impossible performed by Depeche Mode
The album version of this song Had vocals that were played with a little too much, it sounded to static/crunchy to me however on the demo version of nothings impossible you hear dave's actual vocals without effect making the demo version so much better alone in my opinion. Get the demo version of nothings impossible :)

------ About the song Precious performed by Depeche Mode
when i listened to this, i found it quite hard-hitting. I can relate to the lyrics- here's why.
Me and a girl have been such good friends for so long- loving each other without either one of us knowing it. Every time i try to find the courage to tell her, something happens- something doesn't go how i need it to go.
Its been like that for almost 3 years, with everything going well until it's smashed back down to nothing.
Thats why it means something to me. Read the lyrics and you'll see why.

Man and Nature | Reviewer: Valeria
------ About the song Precious performed by Depeche Mode
Since the first time I heard de song I thought of nature, and all ...we have put her through... so, the song is from humans trying to reconcile with nature, God´s master plan should be from nature perspective, because we are not doing very well..! Angels with silver wings, shouldn´t know severing... and I picture birds entangled with plastic bags, or covered with oil...
Words left unspoken, left us so brittle... we should participate more and more in public politics and make our voice be heard to defend the "little left to give" (to future generations)
and I also, hope that there´s still ...room for both of us... in this world, nature and humans, that righ now seem to be so divorced one from the other.
Jesus | Reviewer: Kate
------ About the song Precious performed by Depeche Mode
Somebody commenting before me brought up Martin Gore's explanation about the divorce, and then later said something about it being from God's point of view, about humans. I think maybe this "third point of view" they brought up might be a human's perspective about Jesus dying. But that way the end doesn't make sense (make room in your heart for two).
great beats.. great lyrics!! | Reviewer: haletz

the sinner in me | Reviewer: xristina
------ About the song The Sinner In Me performed by Depeche Mode
Is it about god or about how each individual is facing different realities ?.. im a sinner because i cant live a simple easy life because its not enough for me, life would be sweet if we could depress our emotions and impulses and settle for the ordinary. but because he,we,i cant compromise like most human beings do we are sinners my friend.. i think its about how deep some ppl can feel their emotions and how this affects their life.
The best Interpritation. | Reviewer: AS
------ About the song John The Revelator performed by Depeche Mode
This song is not about the bible the actual john or chrisitanity. In fact Islam started approx 700 years after Christianity so the reference to stealing a good from the muslim too would not apply to the real John.
This song is about all false profits that use the revelations, end of times, religon, and god to rule and push their evil agendas. John the Revelator is any cult leader, any religous leader or any political leader that uses god to rule, abuse, kill and bring pain to humanity.
Wrong | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Wrong performed by Depeche Mode
I am a long time fan of Depeche Mode but am slightly disappointed with the overall album. Wrong is by far the best song. Maybe as it was released first my expectations were increased for the other songs. Sadly not the case. Still i will be going to see them in O2 as they are a top drawer live act and could even bring this humdrum album to life.

------ About the song Precious performed by Depeche Mode
I don’t really think it’s a song about anything specific; it probably refers to those subtle, implausible things, such as feelings or ideas that rarely come to us and are definitely very hard to keep and ‘cultivate’.. Human beings are familiar with those feelings only as children, and then, as they grow up they lose the ability to feel that way, it fades away together with the childlike innocence. This song is so moving only because it reminds us of something we’ve lost, and we aren’t really sure we actually had it.

Sorry, it's me again, I wanted to correct myself and change 'implausible' into 'intangible'. I am not a native English speaker, so I couldn't find the right word to express myself. Only when I added my comment did it dawn on me...'INTANGIBLE'
