Best live version in many tours. Hopefully it will be a mainstay of the 2024 European tour 🙏🏼

[@DM_forever101]

Finally drums are at full speed and this is only and one version of Black Celebration they should perform! 😀😀 intro is also an iconic and masterpiece!! Love it

[@richardmonahan3636]

That's for Alan...brilliant Dave

[@MayLily]

Every time I see this performed live, I just remember Alan in the 101 documentary giving his cute demonstration of how he played Black Celebration on the keyboards. I'm just glad Dave still mentions him every now and then..

[@SmshnPmpkn]

YESSSS! 🎹🙌🎃

[@Viadrus96]

Cool! They finally put some effort into a new version.

[@HERVEKER]

thanks Alan for this song

[@hardcorekohn]

Best Intro ever

[@elenastef]

i think Black Celebration it's the definition of Depeche Mode

[@WeatherNerdRN]

This was the album that changed my life❤

[@dmboy8842]

You are probably not alone👀☻️👀

[@mariofrias2227]

I can’t remember the last time they played that song at such a fast tempo. They clearly are reading the comments about how stagnant the set list for the tour is.

[@Egor_Balandin]

In 1990

[@matheusgomess87]

They played Black Celebration 3 times in 2017. The band had posted a photo of the keyboard programming a few days ago and several songs appeared that are ready to be played on the tour, such as: Policy of Truth, Behind The Wheel, Photographic, Don't Say You Love Me, Before We Drown, Black Celebration... So this change in the setlist was already expected.

[@ModeMan101]

Shame how they had to pitch it so much lower than before in order for Dave to feel comfortable singing it. Nothing new I suppose, they’ve been doing it on a lot of their songs for years.

[@ids5096]

To be honest I’m glad they’re changing it! I think we can all agree that we’d rather classics instead of John the Revelator, a pain that im used to and wrong…….

[@hisgrinningskull2122]

@@ids5096speak for yourself! i love that they play more recent stuff, i just wish they’d play different songs from pta/sotu and some stuff from delta machine

[@Centaur_Taur]

I'll drink to that! 🖤

[@nobrega]

Goosebumps with that intro. Pure dm greatness

[@victoriagore9097]

What an epic intro 🙏

[@samirghanie465]

Just when I've given up all hope of ever hearing Black Celebration live, they surprised the hell out of me last Saturday. I was so emotional throughout the entire song and will be forever grateful for that experience. My absolute favorite song and album by DM. And for everyone complaining about the drumming, it was so intense in person. I don't think the recording can capture how well they hit. When they played Precious, the drumming was so powerful. I was amazed on how good that song was live. Thanks for sharing this video, I've been replaying it as I'm still high from Saturday's performance. I'm probably gonna buy last minute tickets for this Saturday's show at MSG.

[@leatherscent7831]

Yes, I saw them many years ago, many many times and Black Celebration was my favorite concert and favorite live performance. They are an awesome band live!

[@Laura-ck3bp]

Agreed! It was a stunning performance in person.. It just worked. And Martin was so engaged with the crowd for this show, it was really fun to watch. Tickets are pricey for MSG tomr but I'm still looking!

[@deltamaverick]

We flew all the way from NZ for this gig and boy was as it worth it! Brilliant set list and such a treat to see Black Celebration and Policy of Truth being played by the boys as my brother who saw them at Twickenham and Stade de France said both tracks were a 1st time on this tour. Just a brilliant gig. Wish we could have stayed in NY longer to see them again at MSG. Just Fantastic. Europe and North America dont realise how lucky they are....

[@proudfin]

Amazing version, the intro was something else, I'll drink to that. Thanks for sharing, DM 4 ever 🖤

[@jamesmcguigan8340]

It is one of their most epic songs!

[@ixxgxx]

what a badass intro to this classic!

[@jirisedlak5761]

I have goose bumps whe i hear this new live version Black Celebration. I love it !!! Thanks Depeche Mode ❤

[@freddyrivera]

This version is INCREDIBLE!!! Hope it becomes a mainstay...

[@FeinerBengel]

Great version of Black Celebration 🙌

[@DCDPM]

I would love if Blasphemous Rumours got played. I think it would work.

[@jsnxnfjskdlflf3531]

The most epic intro i have ever heard🤯🥶

[@claudiadiaz4095]

Ikr??? It leads me to an prgasmmm

[@kopmatt]

Stunning

[@pierreg3]

This version sounded amazing in person. Hope an offiical version comes out.

[@marektomas9024]

Thank you very much, Depeche Mode!! This is a GREAT change! And I am also happy for this "new coat" of this your hit of 80's:-) This is your/our anthem from your typical Depeche period-from 80's!☺👍👏❤

[@davmon74]

Aun así no nos olvidamos de Mr Wilder

[@ericfetchet3774]

What a great version of this track. Hope they play it for the Vegas / LA shows.

[@athiannedesirejeanhugues2023]

For you Alan!!

[@Medrano101]

Mi favorite song ❤️‍🔥

[@mattbelinski7760]

I think this is the best piece of music they've ever performed...live or studio recording. That intro is possibly the most epic thing I've ever heard!

[@moniquegnoel]

“Thank you that was for Alan” I’m sobbing

[@maareikeeee]

damn he still sounds so good

[@siwa9878]

Thanks for sharing. What a great live version.

[@jorgefloridomartin137]

Brutal the intro!!!

[@CoyoteQ27]

Now I want to go again soon to hear Black Celebration and Strangelove!

[@ravager06]

Finally in the original tempo again!!! Yesss!! Great version!!

[@guyvanarsdall7686]

One of my faves. Shout out to my best friend Tony, who introduced me to their music almost 40 years ago!

That song was not composed by Alan Wilder though, it's from Martin Gore

[@fredrikpettersson76]

There's no soul in the song without Wilder. It leaves me empty. A black dececration.

[@JohanJohansson-y5y]

Always these kind of Alan-the almighty-God-comments…sigh!

[@Utzpah]

​@@JohanJohansson-y5ycompare songs of faith and devotion to Ultra. The contrast is stark

[@JohanJohansson-y5y]

@@Utzpah It sure is but in a good way. Ultra happens to be my all time favourite. Four excellent singles + masterpieces like Sister of night, The bottom line and Insight. (Songs of faith and devotion is of course very good too.)

[@Utzpah]

@@JohanJohansson-y5y Ultra sounds rather sanitised/lacklustre in comparison. Wilder gave them a stadium sound

Strange how he’s a nobody since he left DM, but has all these comments saying he’s a legend

[@DennisSmithAIStockImageClub]

My #1 DM song! 🎧

[@jean-claudenees7617]

Thanks a lot Dave and Mart. I feel good to hear Black celebration the first time in the M-m tour. happy to hear next year the song again in Paris

[@ВалГри]

Эта песня, хит ,который будет хитом ещё лет 50!!!

[@AlbertaDMode]

Love the intro. Even though song was transposed half note down to save Dave's voice it still sounds absolutely amazing! Visual representation is like... DM at their prime and better than ever! On FIRE!

[@GeorgeDemin]

Thank you for recording!

[@LZMN]

I like this version! intro is amazing and drums giving a modern touch. Sure its not the original, but well adapted imo.

they sound like a hard rock band covering depeche mode. thankfully i saw them in concert in the 90s.

Where have you seen a rock cover of BC of this level? Just wondering.

Appreciate the change in the set list. The intro was amazing! But still, IMO Eigners drumming just overwhelms the song.

[@tobiaskamp5320]

You’re absolutely right 👍 Intro is working very well but it’s still not a rock song🙉
