First Time Reaction Depeche Mode But Not Tonight (ANOTHER GEM!) | Dereck Reacts

[@gordonthomas7511]

The song is about Life After Death. Each Stanza, the character goes one level higher into the atmosphere on his way to heaven. How can you see the stars if it's raining? Guiding his way where? Been mistaken for dead? The last verse is the character leaving your view, becoming one with the stars and rejoicing for an entire stanza. It's upbeat because he's rejoicing. He died as an old man, and hasn't felt so alive in years. Martin loves writing songs about death.

[@GaryKirkham-ju8gw]

This is one of my guilty DM pleasures! Its probably Depeche Mode's most upbeat and catchy tune and one of my favourite vocal performances from Dave Gahan ...Magic!🌠

[@stevenkendall3092]

The movie that’s playing is 1986 film “Modern Girls”.

[@djfederik]

The voice of Gahan is always another great human sound on all DM hits

[@animallover6307]

Catchy one isn't it? I'm all grown and still listening to this song! DM FOREVER!❤❤❤❤❤

[@jabarrobbins1057]

The movie they showed clips from is called, "Modern Girls" from 1986 and it stars, Cynthia Gibb, Daphne Zuniga, Virginia Madsen and Clayton Rohner.

[@taoist32]

Daphne, one of my favorites.

[@jamesrigby789]

You should check out Martin doing this live as a Piano version during the Delta Machine tour, it was on the Live in Berlin soundtrack (he also did it during the Memento Mori tour but only in a few concerts) and even the Forced To Mode (the best DM tribute band) live version which is amazing as well.

[@aiguesvives30]

Yes yes yes que de souvenirs depuis toutes ces années je ne m'en lasse pas qu'elle époque formidable tant d'excellentes musiques par rapport à la soupe actuelle.

[@MSol-jz1hc]

This is my favorite song from DM.

[@burtonupchurch1690]

God I love the entire black celebration album. So good.

[@meloman0027]

Very interesting. It is one of my favorite songs on the album too actually.

[@ninawildr4207]

Looooooove it...I cried when Martin sang it on tour!

[@suzannefitzgerald4473]

Listen to their songs "halo" and "i want you now".....a must

[@eloymartinezrebollo4704]

La versión del álbum Black Celebration en USA sustituyó esta canción por Stripped, porque la discográfica en Estados Unidos pensaba que Stripped era una canción demasiado atrevida y por lo tanto allí fue cara B

[@gnagtabru1601]

This Song was only released as a Single in the US.

[@djjowa]

Movie is "Modern Girls"

[@itsmellony422]

One of my favourites!

[@mikeleslie4364]

Got to listen to this one live. Its magical

[@nightgoblin29]

Looking good Dereck! Great choice with this one

[@erikkirchner8479]

You have to listen to "In Your Room" (Album Version)! 😊

[@jpskhale2425]

In Europe, side A of the single was Stripped and side B But not tonight, in the US it was the other way around, in Europe we know it, I like it, I suppose others do too, but they didn't give it the same importance. I think you might also like "Nothing" from the Music for the Masses album but I don't think it came out as a single.

[@meloman0027]

Yeah, that's another gem for me.

[@cmataranify]

Temazo

[@sonnyjames8922]

Fit the mood of the Black Celebration album. Recommend full album listen.."Stripped" is another song from thie album people should hear.

[@staysuede]

I loved the album this was on (tohugh it was 10 years old when I disc'd it). The first time I went to a gay party this song was the closer and I had never felt so alive. I had shed the last of my shame that night.

[@alisadat832]

Hi Dereck, first I've got to say that I love your reactions and I can say you are my favorite one at this job. Just wanted to see if you're interested in making reaction videos of Modern Talking again, cause I got two more for you: You Are Not Alone --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZO4ZHd8mbOCrtE No Face, No Name, No Number --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGjXhWWGl86Kmas They are "Bananas" 😅 Much Love

[@RicoThingol]

Hidden gem

[@Juansan30]

I Love Depeche Mode! But my comment today is a request, one which will get a super super thanks and I hope you will enjoy: It is nothing less that Tina Turner live in 1997, song Whatever you Want, which you happened to like the music video, but this time live in Amsterdam, opening act. Please, don't stop it too soon; let her say hello to the huge crowd and then the song goes on.

[@tebanjose6928]

Written in one day by Martin Gore sung by Dave and a fan favorite but the band doesn't particularly care for it. The US record label wanted a single and something more commercial friendly.

[@balazspandi9782]

Dereck pls react to DM - Question of time! You are gonna love it!

[@eloymartinezrebollo4704]

La versión definitiva de esta canción es el extended remix, esa versión, tiene una sonoridad mejorada con respecto a la versión original, es igual pero mejorada, te la recomiendo.

[@Lilianaeam]

Hello Dereck, subscribed to your channel, I love your reactions, I hope one day you can react to New Radicals with their song You get what you give, have a nice day and greetings from Mexico City 😘🇲🇽

[@Lofote]

One of the Depeche songs many love, but I totally hate. I love them being daaaaarrrkk, especially around those times they were, and this is just too soft for me. It wasn't part of the official BLACK CELEBRATION release in UK and Europe, it was added to the CD versions only (and later digital). Maybe US vinyls also had it, but they always went their own way... which leads me to: As you stated correctly it wasn't released as a single worldwide, just in USA and maybe some other countries. In Europe it was a B-side of STRIPPED only (a muuuuch better song IMHO), but Siren, the record company handling US releases, singlehandedly swapped A and B sides, against Depeches will (especially Alan Wilder, the sound genious hated that decision). it is however not a forgotten gem, as it is played relatively often in recent tours in an acoustic rendition with Martin Gore on the vocals :)...

[@slavery2000]

Can you do a video about Les cowboys fringants with the song La fin du show, it's a special request since this song is a testament from Karl Tremblay,singing about his whole career, knowing is going to die ( dead last November) so he say it's the End of the show period. This song is like the last song of David Bowie, or the song Hurt with Johnny Cash

[@alejandrosampayo2277]

Hello Derek,You are spanish?

[@jamesvikingrattigan5284]

Can you react to Kylie's Global Icon award performance please?😊❤

[@lilia_tubert]

Estaba escuchando A -ha y pasé a este video, es como chato. No tienes mucho que te sorprenda.

[@thomaslamotte8722]

Hey can you react to DM One caress 😊

[@ninawildr4207]

Yeeeeeeeeees! He will be blown away!

[@hyttingvab5532]

[@debbiedebster5806]

🌹❤🔥

[@Esperluet]

Please react to Jacky Quartz "Vivre ailleurs" ❤

[@furiousredkill7500]

Hello dereck, can your react on: fia maravilla of bonne entendeur and Lartiste feat Carolina mafiosa. I'm a big fan of your videos

[@user-pe9gz8si8k]

Don’t fall for the live crap. Depeche Mode are electronic genius. The albums carry a LOT more sound than ANY live version.

[@Mx.RumpusParable]

Martin does a live acoustic version of this on their 2013 tour and it's amazing.

[@Timofficiel74]

Please try Natasha St-Pier- Tu trouveras and Un ange frappe à ma porte. It's cult in France. She was second at eurovision. She's trending right now for a beef with another star on Dancing With the Stars but she won. She was also second at Eurovision! a French guy who has been a fan of your channel for a long time...
