Depeche Mode - Stripped & Never Let Me Down Again (101 Live) > The Videos!!!

I have discovered Depeche Mode when I was a teenager. My sister and I were watching a German music TV channel called Viva Zwei and they were playing the "Everybody Counts" live video from 101. I remember saying to my sister: "Hey! I really like that song!" and she replied "why don't you go get their album called 101?". I instantly wrote that number on my agenda. A couple of days later, my dad took me to a record shop and bought me the 101 double CD album. I was in heaven!!! I couldn't wait to get back home and listen to it. I didn't wanted to hear it in the car just in case... It could have spoiled it!!!
Once at home, rushed to my bedroom, never came back out! I was in DM heaven. Never heard anything like it in my life. It was powerful and still very complex for a live album. It was as if they were playing for me. I had found my thing and it was called Depeche Mode.
I asked around at school if anyone had heard about that band and no one did. They were way too much into girls bands and boys bands!
Still researching about that new sound, I went back to that record shop where I've found the 101 album and there it was, on the video section, 101 by D.A. Pennebacker.
At home, rushed to my parents bedroom to watch the VHS on my own, never left the room (up until they wanted to go to sleep).
I was more and more sucked into the music and having the images that goes with it, I just couldn't move away from the screen.
When they played Never Let Me Down Again, it was such a shock that I cried!
Call me Emo, call me Geek, call me whatever the hell you want, I couldn't care less.
Depeche Mode had just became my thing.



I just hope that you'll like it too.
