[@jamesrigby789]

My top 10, from 10 to 1: 10. Where's The Revolution 9. Master and Servant 8. Photographic 7. Corrupt 6. I Want it All 5. Nothing's Impossible 4. In Your Room 3. Behind the Wheel 2. Personal Jesus 1. Enjoy the Silence

[@charlesswitzer8378]

Decent lists all around. Oddly enough, considering the scale of their catalog, I think "Stripped" is my favorite; incredibly catchy, dark but not overbearing, almost a primal sexuality to it.

[@Stereotype23]

My list: 10. Strangelove 9. Walking In My Shoes 8. Suffer Well 7. Policy of Truth 6. Home 5. Its No Good 4. A Question of Time 3. I Feel You 2. Never Let Me Down Again 1. Barrel of a Gun

[@garrettredd2541]

I'm always surprised at the lack of enthusiasm towards Halo, it's always been a stand out track of theirs for me, and it seems to get lost in the shuffle a lot. The swelling sounds and darkness of it......it's a great recording

[@Sir_Eyeball]

It took a long time to figure out my top 10. Not a definite list though. 10. My Secret Garden 9. It's No Good 8. Walking In My Shoes 7. Sacred 6. Only When I Lose Myself 5. Sister Of Night 4. Stripped 3. The Landscape Is Changing 2. A Question Of Lust 1. Here is the House I have to agree to what Jason said about 'Strangelove'. Probably the most DM-sounding song. 'Policy of Truth' and maybe 'Halo' belong also in this category imo. But whenever someone says they don't know DM I will recommend them to start with 'Strangelove'.

[@pete3105]

10. A Question of Time (1986) 9. Strangelove (1987) 8. Policy of Truth (1990) 7. Wrong (2009) 6. Stripped (1986) 5. Never Let Me Down Again (1987) 4. See You (1982) 3. I Just Can't Get Enough (1981) 2. Everything Counts (1983) 1. Enjoy the Silence (1990)

[@FrankieTeardrop1998]

"Photographic" is not just their best but one of the best synthpop songs ever.

[@BMSUCKS]

I think so too, its melody is so catchy, but lyrics is a little funny

[@mikeBlogic]

@@BMSUCKS Best Version" live in Hamburg"

[@Captain_Rhodes]

Cant believe nobody had deaths door. Thats easily a top 3 song for me. great song

[@mikeBlogic]

"Blasphemas Rumours" is the all time Masterpiece, and immediately afterwards "Walking in my shoes"

[@kevinmcardle4087]

[@KenBecker3]

Folks not familiar with the tune "Shake the Disease", check it out. It wasn't on an actual LP but is one of their best

[@andrewlowden322]

[@benderrodriguez5934]

My Top 10 DM songs: 1. In Your Room 2. Enjoy The Silence 3. The Sinner In Me 4. Fly On The Widescreen 5. It´s No Good 6. World In My Eyes 7. Nothing 8. Everything Counts 9. The Bottom Line 10. Higher Love Gretings from Canary Islands

[@thecroft6070]

I'd have included Walking In My Shoes, but the reason would take too long to explain. You'd really need to have been walking in my shoes to understand🎤💧

[@kimberlywalker3970]

I could've used almost every song from Violator. So, you, Joe, and everyone who w/you about Violator being overrated is nuts. I didn't use them all just a few because I wanted to be fair. So, here is my top ten: 1. Personal Jesus (It was love at first listen and the video was cool.) 2. Strangelove (Has the perfect dance tempo.) 3. Sea of Sin (I heard it on a radio station in L.A. and thought OMG!) 4. Lie to Me (I like the lyrics because they seem more personal and, the bass is awesome.) 5. Fly on the Windscreen (Nice, dark tune.) 6.. World in My Eyes (Kind of seductive in its tone.) 7. People Are People (It does what Ebony & Ivory tried to do w/out being corny.) 8. Blasphemous Rumors (It's a song I can relate to.) 9. Everything Counts (It sums up greed pretty much in one song) 10. Blue Dress (Has a haunting feel to it.)

[@mikeBlogic]

1. Blasphemous Rumours 2. Walking in my Shoes 3. Shake the Disease 4. Stripped 5.World in my eyes 6. Black Celebration 7. Photografic 8. Stories of old 9. Leave in Silence 10. Icemachine

[@kylewoolsey6635]

Salt Lake City/ Ogden had a great alternative station (KJQ) back in the day. They'd do a live call-in show, Saturday nights, where you could make a requests. Without fail, the dj would get about 20 requests for Somebody from teen/pre-teen girls. After awhile, "Nope! Not playing it" then "click" was the response. My top ten in no order - Leave in Silence, Everything Counts, Halo, Shake the Disease, Stripped, Enjoy the Silence, Useless, In Your Room, Black Celebration, Precious .

[@alexmac337]

10. Martyr 9. Shake The Disease 8. Get The Balance Right 7. Everything Counts 6. Halo 5. Here is the House 4. Something to do 3. Dangerous 2. Enjoy The Silence 1. The Meaning of Love

[@TheNraveles]

PRECIOUS YESSS. My #1 song of all time imo

[@mrp4242]

Great lists! Mine: 10. Fly on the Windscreen 9. Just Can’t Get Enough 8. Precious 7. New Life 6. I Feel You 5. Somebody 4. Shake The Disease 3. Never Let Me Down Again 2. Enjoy The Silence 1. Everything Counts--extended version (with Calliope sound) HM: personal Jesus, Policy of Truth, World in My Eyes, People Are People, Strangelove, It’s No Good, One Caress, Wrong, Flexible, Love in Itself.

[@johnj28]

Wow's Joe's list is all over the place! So many great songs. Hard to pick just 10!

[@chasingthebeat]

With Depeche Mode there's almost a consensus that Enjoy The Silence is their best song. For me Precious runs it a close second. Shake The Disease is often overlooked due to only featuring on a greatest hits collection: 1. Enjoy The Silence 2. Precious 3. Shake The Disease 4. It’s No Good 5. Get the Balance Right 6. In Your Room 7. People Are People 8. Everything Counts 9. Just Can’t Get Enough 10. See You

[@johnw706]

I can’t argue with any of those lists . All great songs . I would add Martyr , Waiting for the Night , Halo , and Walk in my Shoes . Cheers !!

[@TimeToGetAlone]

Yeah I'm with Kram and Jason on the top track. Will probably be my favorite of 1990 too. 1. Enjoy the Silence 2. Shake the Disease 3. Everything Counts 4. Policy of Truth 5. Black Celebration 6. Blasphemous Rumours 7. Personal Jesus 8. Somebody 9. A Question of Lust 10. Behind the Wheel

[@lionelraoul]

Precious and Enjoy the Silence are my favorites.

[@mmoses5272]

10.Walking In My Shoes 9.Everything Counts 8. People Are People 7. Strangelove 6. World In My Eyes 5. Photographic(Bizarre Version) 4. Satellite(Instrumental) 3. Enjoy The Silence 2. Get The Balance 1. Policy Truth

[@asmallwhitedog0479]

Enjoy the Silence runners up Its Only When I Loose Myself (Gus Gus Longplay remix) Blasphemous Rumors M. Gores lyrics are exceptional.

[@MVRemastered]

[@pauldevito7476]

Enjoy the Silence......all day, everyday! Time to go back to 70s yet, guys? (Moody Blues). I know it's your favorite decade of music.. .(Moody Blues).......hehehe. No pressure. Lol

[@pipmuffins5765]

I think you guys overlooked my number one “Shake The Disease” which was a bonus on their first greatest hits compilation in 1985. But I enjoyed hearing your opinions (up to Violator only for me - anything after Violator was 👎). Surprised no one picked Just Cant Get Enough. Agree on opinions about Enjoy the Silence and Personal Jesus - both classics.

[@TastesLikeMusic]

For best songs, I usually forget about tracking down greatest hits and EPs. To my detriment. - Joe

[@pipmuffins5765]

@@TastesLikeMusic No problem - I enjoyed your two videos on DM very much 👍👍💯

[@jamesbiggs8187]

I applaud your effort but you guys appear to have overlooked songs that didn't appear on the band's studio albums. It's been said by others here - 'Shake the Disease' is one such track that is always near the top of my list. It's also worth listening to the single release version of 'Somebody' which is a subtle but much improved version of the track that appears on Some Great Reward.

[@Sir_Eyeball]

Depeche Mode also has pretty strong B sides that never were released on an album ('Dangerous', 'Fools' etc.)

[@jamesbiggs8187]

@@Sir_Eyeball My comment above relates to B sides as well. I am just not sure the guys have considered anything that wasn't on a studio album. 'Surrender' would get my nod as my favourite B side but there are several other great B sides in the band's back catalogue.

[@Sir_Eyeball]

@@jamesbiggs8187 Yeah 'Surrender' is also pretty epic. I think I have 'Only When I lose myself' in my Top 10 list as a none album song. Another great B-Side is 'All that's Mine' from Delta Machine. Their best song in the 21st century imo.

[@jamesbiggs8187]

@@Sir_Eyeball Unlike many of its detractors, I am very fond of Delta Machine (though I am not a big fan of SOTU or Spirit). Best Depeche track of the 21st Century? I think my vote would go to 'The Darkest Star' from PTA (also the band's best album of the 21st Century).

[@Sir_Eyeball]

@@jamesbiggs8187 Yeah, Delta Machine is underrated, it is my favorite 21st century DM album. I have it higher in my list than Music for the Masses haha.

[@terencepat7301]

Crazy that none of you had just can't get enough in their top 10.

[@Carback27]

You guys are alright.

[@179rich]

"See You" sounds like an old Buddy Holly song redone by a synth band.

[@TastesLikeMusic]

Yeah, I can see that. -Jason

[@MichaelSmith-jz7xg]

If Joe watched the video for Love In Itself he would like that song less. And if Jason watched the video for Wrong, he would like that song more. But I will never fathom why Kramzer doesn’t like Condemnation!

[@Cachalesco]

10. Somebody 9. Blasphemous rumours 8. Stripped 7. Enjoy the silence 6. In your room 5. Shake the disease 4. Halo 3. Never let my down again 2. A question of lust 1. Black celebration

[@ttmilbr]

Going with Kramzer on this one. Bring on the hits!

[@shoogerkane]

Glad to see Just Can't Get Enough not make it. I absolutely despise that song. But I was expecting at least one vote for Blasphemous Rumours. I dig that one. I'd have to put People Are People in there, too, maybe at 9 or 10. My top 10 would include, in no particular order, Enjoy..., Never Let Me Down..., Policy..., and World in..., Everything Counts, and Master and Servant. Not a big fan of Personal Jesus but can see it's worthiness. Strangelove is kinda like People Are People to me...borderline.

[@davidkahler2053]

i always likes when the body speaks from exciter stripped policy of truch never let me down again live personal jesus

[@Starless2012]

The fact that 'Blasphemous Rumours' was neither in this top 10 nor the albums discussion shows how little time you all are actually spending listening to these albums.

[@TastesLikeMusic]

That is a blasphemous lie

[@179rich]

"Enjoy the Silence" - good DM song but far from my favorite.

[@pamellgren3051]

MEH, you failed to feature "I Want You Now", a fantastic song of theirs.

[@freezer-trancechannel297]

Stripped, In Your Room and Clean not on your list? That means you are probably just a part-time fans :)

[@TastesLikeMusic]

I’m not really even a part time fan. I’m like a substitute teacher fan. - Joe

[@Sir_Eyeball]

Full-time fans know that 'Here is the House' is DMs best song ;)

[@MichaelSmith-jz7xg]

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think I’m the only one in the world who has never liked “Enjoy the Silence”.

[@scottanthonyweidner8692]

I think it's hilarious that Joe put "Enjoy the Silence" in his top five, because when I first heard that song on the radio (remember the radio?) back in 1990, my first thought was, "Wow, what a shameless rip-off of New Order!"

[@TastesLikeMusic]

I love true faith, bizarre love triangle and blue Monday. But I feel like that’s not a true representation of New Order. - Joe

[@brianjackson5541]

Feeling Black Crowes or Keys needs a listography...shake off the synth!

[@aaronanderson8974]

Didn’t Def Leppard ruin personal Jesus ?

[@TastesLikeMusic]

Only if you acknowledge that it exists. - Joe

[@kimberlywalker3970]

I heard it to and thought WTF?! I'll give them credit for trying but they should stick to T-Rex instead.
