Personal jesus, never let me down again in live.

[@pedromartins4523]

One the best band in the world. Huge Fanbase after 43 years . Still selling out stadiums and Arena . I listen to them every single days. Love them to death

[@patriciacloix71]

Vous avez raison et je rajoute Muse également 🎼🎧🎸🔥

[@ClaudiaMach-ol2dl]

In my opinion British Artists dominated in the 80 s. Bands like DM,The Cure,The Smiths,Tears for fears, U2, Simply Red,Eurythmics,Wham,Duran Duran,Spandau Ballet,Culture Club,PET Shop Boys,Madness and so on were so refreshing and cool in their music and style.

Ya forgot def let lol

[@davidcooks5265]

It was the 80s🎉🎉🎉

[@alienlickwid]

Point of information U2 was Irish, with the exception of Adam Clayton who was born in England but grew up in Ireland. That said, totally agree with your point. Would also give a nod to the German electronic band Kraftwerk who many consider the godfathers of electronic music. They inspired Depeche Mode and many other band like New Order, Yazoo, Soft Cell, Ultravox...the list is almost endless!

[@ClaudiaMach-ol2dl]

@@alienlickwid oh yes, you are right with U2. My fault😊. But I think we can agree to what I wrote before. And also yes as German I know about the big influence of Kraftwerk to electronic music in general.

[@alienlickwid]

@ClaudiaMach-ol2dl No worries my friend. All good!! We do agree for sure!! The 80's was a great time for British music. I'm still a big fan of the era.

[@dragonmac1234]

RIP Fletch, gone to that great gig in the sky too soon 🙏. Depeche Mode are in my opinion still one of the best bands around.

[@j4cob436]

Saw them again in June at Twickenham Stadium. Best band I've ever seen live and I've seen a lot of bands ! Unique.

[@SusyStew]

Best live band EVER!!! godfathers of synth!!

[@marioibarra7886]

Never let me down again live is another goosebumpy performance

[@aliwantizu]

There are only 2 artists that I will always go see live. Tool and Depeche Mode. I just saw DM about a month ago, and it was the most money I ever spent on a concert ticket (amazing seats!) I fear they may end after this album tour due to the death of their band mate, with this current album and tour in his memory/honor, but we'll see. I have seen them live in person every time they came to the Detroit area since 1989. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members since 2020, and STILL selling out massive venues. Thank you SO much for covering my all time favorite band! ~Be Blessed

[@mikeshimmel3561]

I just saw Depeche Mode live in San Francisco Sunday night. They were simply amazing. They are my wife’s favorite band and I surprised her with tickets.

[@hahatoldyouso]

YES! best performance of an amazing song

[@jacquelinecrawford6620]

I'm going to see them in January. It will be my 3rd time. I've seen them in the 2000's, 2010's and now the 2020's. They are awesome. Love from Yorkshire, England 🇬🇧 ❤

[@JohanJohansson-y5y]

I’m sure you’ll enjoy the concert in Janaury! I saw them in Oslo in August (for the 23rd time 😊) and they were brilliant as always. Happy new year from Sweden 🥂

[@timothybush9633]

Hi John & Lulu, many good English bands from that era and their all Musical like Echo and the Bunny Men, The Cure, The Smiths, Thompson Twins and more

[@chrisanderson7516]

Saw them a couple weeks ago in Salt Lake. They put on a great show!

[@UberDurable]

They had a concert in Amsterdam this year, and having one early next year, both SOLD OUT!

[@118dan247]

The bands from the 80s were given to us by the music gods

[@johnj28]

First big breakthrough song for DM in America was People Are People in 1984! They aren't really commercial in the US, but Violator was a huge album with this, Personal Jesus, Policy of Truth as singles. The album before this had Strangelove and Never Let Me Down. The band is still putting out albums today and you should totally check out Ghosts Again & Wagging Tongue from 2023's Memento Mori album. Other great synthetic bands from the 80's are New Order, Pet Shop Boys, OMD, Erasure, & A-Ha!

[@steffenschulle1094]

This is live in Berlin and I was there🤘🤘

[@jennifersharpe4207]

They have been putting out album’s consistently since the 80’s I have seen them 4 times live and they are the best I’ve ever seen live and I’ve been to over 20 concerts

[@jurijssazonovs9915]

I first heard DM when I was 15 years old. Now I'm 55, but I'm still a fanatic...

[@hindlewalker9330]

Timeless,sublime, the best .All the best everyone from North Yorkshire England.

[@retr0naut823]

43 years making music and they are still vital. There was no category for Depeche Mode so they made their own!

[@sonerozel312]

Yes. We love you depech mode. Thanks. Legends

[@kimberleyphillips6671]

My perfect 80's song. ❤

[@JeterSwisherFan88]

You might also like the live version they did of this song from “Devotional” (1993), which is rightfully regarded as the best live performance they gave of it. “Ghosts Again” from their album “Memento Mori” (2023) is a more recent recommendation that I think you might like, too.

[@tonyp7368]

I’ve seen them live twice and both times the entire arena was belting out this song.

[@wngimageanddesign9546]

That analog synth sound. But Depeche Mode was more dark, industrial. They are Iconic! Saw them in concert twice, thank god! It was epic.

[@gregmckinney4562]

Absolutely amazing band.

[@larsgutheil5520]

Legends. Would be interesting to see you react to some of their later/more recent stuff. They have just released a very good new album. First single was „Ghosts again“ and it’s amazing. Other great Depeche Mode tracks would e.g. be Only when I lose myself, It‘s no good, Freelove, Precious or Wrong (the latter with a quite controverse video clip)

[@ruidesousaYTC]

Depeche Mode - "Never Let Me Down Again" live.

[@boqndimitrov8693]

even though his voice is not the same anymore, he still sounds great, doesn't he? and the song is just.. ❤❤❤❤❤🔥

[@craigclass]

Top 3 tour bands in 2023. Only Elton and Coldplay had bigger numbers. $175 million gross, 1.8 million tickets sold, 47 shows. 100 million albums sold. They are one of the few bands still creating and a huge following.around the world from the 80's.

[@thehypnoticlforoom]

They were some of the first "New Wave" bands in the start of the 80's using only synthesizers.

[@Alainemiranda]

Depeche Mode was part of the 2nd British Invasion. They did 4 shows in Los Angeles this past week. I went to the last one and also saw them at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. I started listening to them in the 80’s when I was in grade school back in the Philippines.

[@lordofnumbers9317]

I recommend Visage - "Fade to grey", The Buggles - "Video killed the radio star", Desireless - "Voyage, voyage", Jennifer Rush - "Power of love", France Gall - "Ella Elle l'a", Duran Duran - "Wild boys", Europe - "The final countdown", Journey - "Don't stop believin", Nena - "Nur geträumt", Falco - "Vienna Calling" and so on, and so on ... Be wild and free like the 80's

[@wngimageanddesign9546]

StrangeLove is another one of theirs I just love. But Enjoy the Silence was Depeche Mode's zenith song. A masterpiece in composition, the defining synth song.

[@ACM-by9lw]

Depeche Mode was formed in 1981. By Vince Clarke ( Later Yazoo called Yaz in the US and Erasure ) Andy Fletcher, Martin Gore and Lead singer Dave Gahan. Vince left after the first album, the other 3 members continued, the work on a second album. In 1983 Alan Wilder came aboard. He was a genius with synths, samplers and sounds. sadly he left in 1995. They are the biggest electronic rock band for maybe the last 40 yares Their music in the 80s was very underrated. They used samplers and synths in a different way than all the other bands in the 80s did. In the beginning, they made synthpop. Later the music became much more industrial and dark Personal Jesus and Enjoy the Silence are their 2 biggest hits. Actually, there is an amazing story, behind Enjoy the Silence. Martin originally, wrote this song as a slow ballad, with a harmonium as instrumental back-up. But Alan Wilder, came up with the idea, to put a beat to it. Matin came up with the guitar riff. Then Alan and the producer Flood, took the song to the studio, and Bam. That's how you produce a simple, beautiful and durable synth pop song. In the UK, the song won a 1990 Brit award, for best British single. I love the studio version. Other great songs: Everything Counts, a political song about corporate greed. Master and Servant, blasphemous rumours, Stripped. Just can't get enough. their first big single in 1981. They released their 15th album called Memento Mori back in March this year

[@R3ED3R]

they are from Basildon about 10 miles away from me, my mother used to see them playing pool in pubs when she was growing up.

[@thomasroucka2689]

What a badass version, thanks for sharing

[@kev6333]

Great reaction. Should be higher live in Berlin is awesome also my favourite stranger from the new album is worth watching just to get up to date with what they are doing now. And wagging tounge is another awesome track from the new album

[@Dueh-yq7lg]

Depeche mode Arena one of the greatest live performer of All time! Unbelievable

[@michelzawartka2862]

They are just unic......depeche mode is more that music, it s a life style....I follow them since I was 16

[@simonp9075]

Gary Numan kick started all Electronic bands like Depeche Mode and all that came alone in the 1980s, with number one hits like Are Friend Electric and Cars in 1979. Up until that point electronic music was pretty much unheard of in the UK and the rest of the world. Gary Numan is today know as a pioneer the synth the god father.

[@xylemphoenix]

I went to their concert in that tour. It was amazing!

[@Mmmmericaaaa_USA]

I always called DM Alternative New Wave as they cross genres… Remember they started with Vince Clarke who later left to create Yazoo and then Erasure. Please consider doing these DM songs also: Somebody A Question Of Lust But Not Tonight - original video and the story behind the song 🙌 Home

[@ReactToTheWorld]

Alternative New Wave. I love that!

DM were not huge in the UK. They still are huge in Eastern Europe and the US. Saw them Twickenham stadium June 2023. The best bast you will see live. And I have seen many bands.

[@ginafragata2947]

Soooou amazing ❤

[@creolerican]

LuLu is a BABE!

[@artmorris8899]

Why is the video flipped? I've seen this video (Live in Berlin) a hundred times but this is the first reaction where someone flipped it. Martin Gore (the guitar player is right handed, not left as the video indicates) and he always plays to Dave Gahan's right (as looking from the stage to the audience). I just saw them in concert in Portland Oregon and they crushed it! This was the last song before the encore, which included 4 more songs, and ended with Personal Jesus.

[@keithgiles3484]

Definitely personal Jesus that's a great song so is black celebration

[@andyyoung9463]

Watch Personal Jesus from the Devotional tour for more DM. Also, suggest you try Don't You Want Me by Humna League off of their album Dare, which really kicked off the electronic synth pop stuff back in the early 80s

What school in Virginia? If you don't mind me asking.

[@mauricelechenault3814]

At their beginnings they were classified as a new-wave electro band, but quickly they broadened their musical palette by adding rock ("Personal Jesus" for example) Today they are a real rock band, their show is a rock show and as you know rock is an infinite musical palette. Let's stop putting The Music in boxes...

Synthpop is the genre

I would go with Goth New Wave…

Mad respect for the guy, at least he can follow the beat. I'm not sure WTF she was doing.

[@bakuldada7838]

React to "its no good"

[@IamtheLexx]

The next logical choice in line would be to make her listen to Personal Jesus of course

[@lesliedaubert1411]

This was probably the last song of that concert. You can see how much the singer is sweating. That certainly doesn't happen at the beginning of a concert.

[@mihnealupu1743]

I think they finnish with Never let me down again in every concert

[@catuccit]

Hi, I'd like you to also react to the new Maneskin Valentine song!!!

[@jargien240]

If you want another great electronic band to react to I would recommend "Covenant - Call The Ships to Port" Not as widely known as Depeche Mode in general, but in the electronica scene they are very appreciated.

[@jarls5890]

Agreed! Also perhaps Wolfsheim - the song "And I" comes to mind.

[@jimfell7147]

Channeling Freddie Mercury.

😂she fall in love with Gahan I guess😂

Ruin the whole experience of enjoying the reaction with unskippable ads that start video all over again. I was enjoying your reaction to song and yt threw an unskippable ad which sucks and made me click off ad and than video restarted again which made me leave reaction video because of the ads and in the middle of song. Pretty sad if monetization is including ads halfway through a reaction and as someone who sees enough ads on regular tv and have to see them on yt reactions is sad just so you can get views and a few bucks.

[@ReactToTheWorld]

Yeah... YT is making it harder to skip ads now. Latest version even stops AdBlocker. Sorry my dude.
