The Friday Canon: DEPECHE MODE

MODEFAX:

Dave joined the band after hearing them rehearse in a scout-hut!

They used 'People Are People' as the theme tune for agreeable children's telly programme It'll Never Work!

Dave technically died for 2 minutes in 1996!

You get THIRTEEN ticks across all these UK Top 40 hits. Blimey!

In fact this is the first canon for a few weeks where I've had excess tickage - sorry to let "Behind The Wheel" and "Leave In Silence" go, and "Personal Jesus" is worth the tick I didn't give it but I witheld one because i) beginning of the end innit, ii) didn't want it to win.

Out of all the ones I know, 'Barrel Of A Gun' is the only one that is actively poor.

That was well into his Basildon Lizard King phase no? I think "I Feel You" is my least favourite.

Yes, the one that was seamlessly integrated with his "I'VE DONE A BUNCH OF SUICIDE ATTEMPTS GUYS" phase.

I ticked 25 on the first pass. Real struggle getting it down.

Suffer Well was written by Dave, the others all by Martin.
