I can't believe I'm starting this thread until now....*slaps herself* I really love DM, they're one of my favorite band, and well...I'm gonna keep this thread as I have done with the Interpol one...posting news, pics, etc...
I just got the link to watch the video for their new single, 'Precious':
I wish so much that they decide to come to Mexico...I remember I once told my mum some of the bands' concerts that I would like to go..and among those bands one was Depeche..(the 'list' also included Placebo, of course ) I hope that comes true..with that my year would be awesome...first watching Placebo live...now I'm making plans to go to see Interpol..and then Depeche Mode!!! woah...!!

Happy Birthday, Martin!!!!
I love you dearly, you were one of the main reasons why I started listening to Depeche Mode, your lyrics mean so much to me, and you have an amazing voice. I hope you have an awesome day with all your friends and loved ones. I'll be thinking of you.

"A guy in Poland has been arrested after being identified as guilty of uploading one of the new Depeche Mode songs to the Internet" <- that's "Precious"!!
I still thank him, cause he was the heroe for all of us who aren't patient enough to wait for the album to come out...

aww, don't worry Jenna, I'm sure they're gonna be making more guests appearances these days, so we'll be able to catch them
and I got some info about the interview..
"Quite interesting they played Enjoy The Silence at the start of the show. Dreaming of Me before the interview and Precious during the interview. Talks about the early days and the new album
Very interesting, Dave sayed that Martin wrote the song for his kids as he is going through a bad divorce." Makes it even more beautiful I suppose..

^ that's great Jenna! I've watched the video a lot of times on TV and even on an argentinean channel ...Last Tuesday 18 (when Playing The Angel was released in US) I called to all the record stores near me..and even those that aren't so 'near' me..haha...but non of them knew about DM or the album.. I don't know how much time I will have to be like this...without owning PTA...I want it now!!
