Video description:
‘In the Null Void video, we follow a desperate character in his attempt to transcend a physical space and escape his addictions via a hallucinatory female.
The environment is a dystopic, brutalist variation on an old theme: the stifled, domestic household. The refrigerator, the television, the wine bottles, and -most notably - the main character’s nonexistent female counterpart evoke this dark theme. The cold lighting, concrete floors and metal containers further elicit the atmosphere of a prison in which he tries to resist the temptations offered by his imaginary friend.
The illusory female character’s performance is mostly static, as though she is another object in the room. Her eyes are glazed over in reverie, the mode by which the action will follow.
These reveries take various forms, limited by the sparseness of her environment. Dave plays a kind of narrator, floating around her dreams (sometimes actually), performing the song, alluding to the twofold nature of escape.
Most important is the television, which serves as a physical manifestation of these purely mental (intellectual) fantasies. Its formal role in the narrative is essential, and as the viewer’s perspective is fed through the television, we lose our place. What is real and what is the fantasy? In this way, we are able to identify with the protagonist.
After reality and fantasy are knotted together, they fracture, and the space is literally broken into parts. This is reminiscent of a familiar sensation at the end of a dream or reverie, when the idea comes together and then falls apart. The video thus gives us a picture of what the nature of escape can sometimes feel like: the ecstasy of transcendence, the eluding of time, the total circumvention of life as a physical object.“ ’says Saccenti.
Lyrics:
your words were spoken
carefully chosen
for me
each one a msg
and insight
to some degree
when i wake up
my eyes are open
i can see
i can hear you
all around me
i feel free
there is comfort here
where i wait
for you
there is sunlight
shining through
there is comfort here
where i wait
for you
there is sunlight
shining through
why am i nervous
my hands they're shaking
my heart it beats
your specter haunts me
and taunts me
i cant breathe
when i wake up
my eyes are open
i can see
i can feel you
all around me
i can breathe
We're moving on

Can't stop listening to this song, Dave's voice is my salvation... My heart beats in that dark beat, great song!!!

[@DevotionalDaveakaPFM]

I think Depeche Mode needs to hire him to produce their next album and go full on electronic. Dave's voice is so perfect for this sound. I spun it at my 4 Depeche Mode Hollywood after parties and people liked it. Came up to me and asked...is that DAVE GAHAN. Great stuff.

[@commentspae]

hourglass moment

[@clonmult]

I keep on coming back to this more than any Depeche Mode track - it's like Kurt has distilled the essence of Depeche Mode and then convinced Dave Gahan to be the metaphorical icing on the cake. Absolute perfection, I truly cannot fault this track.

Effectivement, ayant lu les commentaires élogieux à juste titre, Dave et ses acolytes de DM devraient s'unir le temps d'un album prodigieux. Null+void ont l étoffe, le vibe et un génie compatibles.

My mother once said to me "when we do not learn our life lessons, then life, our history will repeat itself until we do learn". In learning and understanding these life lessons we can then let go and move on. Our past will not repeat itself.

I really love this track. If I didn't know I could have sworn that this is a Depeche Mode single!! So good absolutely!!

That is the darkest track in my playlist. Minor, full of dissonances, but I totally love it! Heard it on some radio and shazamed it.

[@richardparker7157]

Beautuful song. Wonderful video, keeping Dave divorced from the 'horror.' Love it.

Amazing, Dave does it again-such incredible vocals

[@fisicoemeteorolog.rodrigocezar]

Dave Gahan is my favorite singer, Depeche mode is my favorite band. Depeche mode my eternal and beloved band.

[@alvinadhin5400]

I love the Electronic, Gothic-Industrial feel of this song, as well as the lyrics and vocals. David Gahan is one of my favorite male vocalists and musicians, along with Martin Gore! Listening to this song makes me wish that Depeche Mode--my number 1 band if all time--would have produced more songs like this for the "Spirit" album. It is still, of course, a great album, with many songs that I love, but songs like this really would have given the album more of an edge. I am simply imparting my honest viewpoint, as a lifelong Depeche Mode fan. 🙂🎶💎❤️

[@gabrielafernandalopez5782]

Spectacular video, I love it, and well Dave, as always so flawless, is a pleasure to hear ... and watch it .... @ beautiful!

[@heidibruun6194]

Looks and sounds like a music video from the good old ULTRA record. Seems a reminiscence to that album. Well done!

LOVE IT ! Great track, Kurt is an EXCEPTIONAL artist. And Dave is, as always, well, ONE OF A KIND !!!

[@user-ri4fz9mf8x]

Geeeez!!! The verse is absolutely AWESOME!!! That silky voice.... gwaaaashh..... so mesmerizing ❤ Lyrically haunting, perfectly suited to the dark quality of the music 👍 great job guys! I find the chorus a bit weak, but I get the idea of contrasting atmospheres verse and chorus convey. The video IS creepy, but, again, it suits the tone. Strangely, what Saccenti says is not my interpretation, but he is the director, so I bet he knows best 😁.

[@MayaRose1971]

Höre gerade zum ersten Mal diesen Song. Krasses Video! Die Eleganz mit der Gestik haben wir beide in uns, jedoch nicht das Darstellende.Guter Sound, Beat und dazu passender Songtext. Am Schluß erinnert mich dies leicht an Pink Floyd.

[@nukerarr]

no conocia la cancion, y me sorprende que exisata buena armonia en toda la obra. excelente trabajo.

[@IlseeI]

Your voice is all I’ve heard since I was two and then I touched your hand at the bowl lol Thanks for all the great music.
