Depeche Mode is the definition of synth pop. You think it sounds like 80‘s? That’s because they defined the sound of that decade. Absolute giants since 40 years.

[@valerycro3853]

Truth is policy...

[@richlisola1]

80s and 90s

[@ntro9347]

Sure enough, but in all fairness violator does not really sound like an 80's album - which it isn't.

[@Sabe53]

This song is great.

[@Sabe53]

You need to check out Lacuna Coil's version of this song.

[@oleksandrbyelyenko435]

Finally you came to Depeche Mode. Absolute classic of electronic music

[@ninawildr4207]

😂

[@ivantomasini2987]

Classic and evergreen

[@ivantomasini2987]

Dave is king of the moutain

[@emilianoserranosouza1991]

That's a fact!!

[@nathanclarke2777]

Yes but even more so they are still making albums and still selling out stadiums around the world!

[@JimboLana]

"This must have been big" If you only knew 😂

[@barr790]

Love Depeche Mode, one of the best British bands of their era ❤

[@HappiestGirl69]

and this era as well… ❤

[@lisajohnson521]

Right!

[@montmorency-v2r]

Yesss

[@EduardSLVRU]

DM never gets old, always will be around. We are getting old, this tune will be timeless.

[@sassypatty2666]

Can I add The Cure?

[@zinnia2980]

Depeche Mode 👋The live version of Enjoy the Silence is amazing 👌

[@CavHDeu]

Live in Berlin

[@lbernau]

Depeche Mode has so many songs you should react to. Like "Just Can't Get Enough", "Master & Servants", "Strange Love" and "It's No Good" just to name a few.

[@jasonlove6931]

That's a good start. There are 2 many to name.

[@markyd504]

Not forgetting "Personal Jesus" of course

[@StevieDrawStuff]

Yes, Personal Jesus and People are People

[@lindasalaki9404]

What a banger 🔥🔥🔥

[@manuelper]

I'd vote for 'Wrong'. The bass drop in that is ridiculous.

[@bobibac]

Saw Them last summer at parken stadium in Copenhagen, 48000 people having The Time of their lives, This band is after 40 years still among The 5 best live bands in The World🖤🔥 and This is from a metal guy.

[@johanstang8298]

Same, saw them in Stockholm and they we on fire!

[@BrookePS23]

I went to a Depeche Mode concert my Senior year of High School (1997) & it was awesome! 🥰 Depeche Mode, Erasure, Beautiful South, Tears for Fears, The Smiths… Pet Shop Boys! ❤ Wow… these bands were the soundtrack to some of my High School years! I remember spending hours burning playlists on CD’s of all these bands! 😂

[@chelseahaley8350]

Love Pet Shop boys!!!

[@nfbody]

Pet Shop Boys!!! ❤

[@marcostruck6464]

Was it "Music for the Masses"? Been there 96, I think. Was awesome!

[@julianatomasek9793]

and dont forget OMD, Echo and the Bunnymen, the Alarm Midnight Oil, These groups are all on my playlist!

[@stephaniewheeler4626]

Oh tears for fears!!!!

[@KeithDCanada]

The crazy thing about this band, is that they started in 1981, and almost every year in the 80's they released an album. They struck commercial US success with the album previous to this, in 1988 and toured a 101 concert streak across the country ending in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. In the early 90's they began their 'album almost every four years' trend that has carried on to current times, with their latest album that just came out last year. 40 years of constant albums. few bands can say that.

[@claudburger]

Who are these guys? Only one of the biggest and best creators of amazing music ever.

[@christinahilt2978]

This song was recorded 1989 and released 2/1990. Love this album. Their song “Somebody” was my first dance with my husband at our wedding. I also love the deep cut “I Want It All.”

[@cliffinward5502]

Was our first dance too, my sister also chose the lyrics for of our readings. Was fortunate enough to see Alan Wilder perform it with them at the Royal Albert Hall not long after our wedding.

[@VerucaSalt70]

"People are People" "Never Let Me Down Again" and "Just Can't Get Enough" are just a few great songs from DM.

[@santacruz7455]

and "Eversything counts" ( in large amounts) a very unique critique on capitalism and greed..

[@DanyelleStewart]

DM redefined music back in the early 80's. The Cure - Kraftwerk - New Order & Depeche Mode are pioneers of this sound. DM went from being called a "One Hit Wonder," to releasing multiple hits & selling over 100 Million records. Inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame & to this day is the most covered synth pop band in history. They have influenced thousands of bands. They are absolute legends. I saw them live 3 times in 2024 alone! Incredible band live. - A song I would highly recommend off of the same album as "Enjoy the Silence," is "HALO."

[@sassypatty2666]

Absolutely 💯

[@amberhoward7807]

They are actually still making music to this day... But they have so many other great songs too! Do People are People and also Personal Jesus.

[@JeffMartinEquinox]

and many reactions have been done to the Johnny Cash cover (which is great!) without going to the original Depeche Mode first...

[@NoCreamedCorn]

Treat yourself to the live version and watch a master class in commanding an audience. This song is timeless.

[@amyaeschbach3581]

Saw Violator tour in 1996. Junior in HS. K ew every word all their songs. Somebody was on repeat for so many years. Li e shows unreal. Check a live version Personal Jesus?❤❤❤ welcome to the founders of the synth tech world. More Dee pech mode!

[@thekevindeucey]

You can tell Dave loved Freddy Mercury

[@judithhorvath887]

David Gahan has such confidence and total command of the audience. I love watching him perform and move on stage. The tone of his voice draws me in.

[@mindscraper1978]

I love the live version even more cause you can see how much he is enjoying it himself.

[@pierreo2629]

error: you have to listen to Depeche Mode with headphones, because of all their mixing creativity in terms of panning, 3d effects...etc We're talking about 35 years ago. This song was an absolut classic, big hit at the end of the 80's.

[@slayercfv]

enjoy the silence is 1990 not 80s

[@pierreo2629]

@@slayercfv recorded in 1989. The time when the song was made, not released.

[@sumonjamal1653]

You got it right... It's a French name meaning "Fast Fashion" ("deep - esh mode") even though the band is British... They debuted as an electronic synth pop group in 1980... 'Enjoy the silence' was from 1990 - it became one of Depeche Mode's biggest singles from the iconic album 'Violator'... which also had the hit singles: "Personal Jesus" ... 'Halo' ... 'Policy of truth' ... 'World in my eyes'...🔥🔥

[@mountainbikemayhem1833]

Violator is the most perfect album ever recorded

[@lisajohnson521]

Agreed!!!

[@murielbaroni2669]

They took their name from the French magazine "Dépêche Mode"

[@tonybarruk2]

I have bootleg tapes of early gigs where Dave Gahan clearly introduces the band as "Dep-esh-ay" Mode with an accent, but they reverted to "Dep-esh" quite early on...

[@Asta453]

Since it's French, it can't be pronounded "deep" ;)

[@roberttrujillo4431]

One of the best bands I've ever seen live.

[@claudburger]

100% agree. Seen them multiple times live and they are just incredible

[@nuketoto3868]

Next: people are people, was a global no 1 in the 80s.

[@fridaw1015]

This whole album (Violator) is fire. That album and their next one (Songs of Faith and Devotion) are masterpieces. And few can top them live in their prime.

[@AlvenmodFoto]

I refuse to believe a grown man in the music industry no less have never heard of Depeche Mode, or not even know how to pronounce it

[@mbierregaard9040]

❤😊 Yep, first heard them in Germany...1990 I think...bought their cassette and just about wore it out listening to them daily. Good stuff. Thanks for reacting 👍

[@TheAncikomanci]

The biggest band on Earth (after Queen) still going strong in 2024!

[@Wella1602]

Just seen them live in concert again in Hamburg, Germany on Saturday....devotee for life🖤🖤🖤

[@Emeraldpixie08]

Alan Wilder is the genius behind the sound on this track.

[@StevieDrawStuff]

Depeche Mode are one of my favorites. People are people is an amazing song and still relevant.

[@richardgoddard37]

They're still massive across the globe, even America.... You need to see them live.

[@frasercathygartside1356]

massive band massive influence massive impact

[@rowanmayfair9249]

Welcome to DM. Deeeeeep rabbit hole of amazing f'ing music. Trust your instincts, you pronounced it correctly, De-pesh Mode. Some of my faves, nowhere near all. Personal Jesus A Question Of Lust People Are People Master and Servant Stripped

[@blurpledragon2779]

Good Choices , this is one of my fav bands , saw them at the legendary Rose Bowl concert in 88 , such a great concert . I am so happy BP checked them out !!!

[@rowanmayfair9249]

@blurpledragon2779 I'm jealous! I've never seen them but would have died to go. I can't go any longer, sadly. I just wanted to hear Dave's voice flow into me the way only a live concert does.

[@Lioness_UTV]

I remember seeing this guy's in a pub and their music was fun back then. The 80'a and 90's was a brilliant time in the UK as everyone was so accessible, played clubs, pubs and such...the best of times.

[@anthonyv1719]

Beat has not aged. Depeche Mode were ground breaking, and were part of the early Alternative scene which created numerous iconic bands that still play today - and all if not most, in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame - Depecehe Mode, the CURE, New Order, Echo and The Bunnymen, and a few others....

[@patriciagrant4913]

You should watch Depeche Mode "Enjoy the silence" live in Germany. You will not be disappointed.

[@IceManTX69]

Flew from Tulsa to Dallas after work to catch this concert in '92 ish. Rode back to Tulsa in the back of a truck with my friends and was back at work at the bank at 8am. Oh, to be young again.

[@per-andersmalmberg6248]

They were still recording in the studio 1992 and started touring in 93 so probably at that time. Amazing concerts all though their “Devotional” tour.

[@Ultra1997DM.]

Yeah 93 but sure age means nothing .

[@jennhurl]

1990 I was a Sophomore in college & the club mix on this was everywhere 🔥 every club, frat, & sorority house bumped this hard

[@johneldridge8678]

Excellent reaction. I bought my first leather jacket after watching this video. They looked so cool.

[@KeithDCanada]

This has been my favorite band since my friend from the UK, who moved to Canada when he was young, brought his music collection with him and introduced me to their music in the later 80's. I have seen them multiple times in Canada and the US, and in 2017 I flew to see them at the Olympic Stadium in London, with VIP early access tickets. Me and about 40 other people got lead onto the stadium field a couple hours before the concert and were allowed to set up our spots at the stage front for the show. Looking back, during the concert, and seeing near 80,000 people behind me, packing the stadium, was the absolute best time in my entire life.

[@ytu77]

Haven't you heard IT on the radio....IT was on for the last 40 yrs😉😉😉 I literally just came back from the concert ❤🎉❤

[@elenastef]

he has royalty in his voice. That's Dave Gahan, and the best description of his voice. This is where the majestic feel of their music comes from.

[@Fizzledark]

I feel like this was their best album. Almost every single song is a banger. This band was way more popular in Europe than they were here in the U.S. You were wondering about the vocals ... Dude sounds just like that in very song. Top quality every time.

[@per-andersmalmberg6248]

Yes you’re right even though they still pulled a crowd of over 60000 already back in 1988 at the 101 concert, Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.

[@DaxHamel]

Holy crap, you understood the verse the first time out? That's rare. All I need is here is in my arms. Well done.

[@violetsky3067]

This is timeless music

[@bigvsouthphilly2156]

This is my favorite reaction video of all time. As the song goes on your feeling the song more and more

[@sharonstonts]

Depeche mode are brilliant. You should also check out "Shake the Disease", "Personal Jesus", and "Free Love". They were big in my country in the 90s, when I was a teenager.

[@Salicat99]

I wonder what he would think of Blasphemous Rumours?

[@brendamckinley3036]

Great sounds never age...ever! The video is the sound made into pictures. Perfection.

[@KeithDCanada]

They were definitely products and pioneers of the early 80's New Wave movement that came out of the UK. This band specifically favored synth because as teenagers, the original band mates weren't allowed to make too much noise in the house, so using actual classic instruments was not in the cards. They did incorporate them in the later 80's as their success grew. That straight synth has become a hallmark sound for the band over the years though.

[@shannonconnolly602]

Great choice! Depeche Mode one of my favorite bands...and you said it correctly. They were considered New Wave back then. This is my favorite album of theirs and my 2nd fav song on it. To the "Policy of Truth", my favorite..words are great to that also. And to answer the question, this came out in 1990. Another 80s great one is "People are People"..also fabulous song! ❤

I spent 28 hours (14 hours each way) on an overnight, cross-country bus to see these guys in concert. Let me tell you, it was worth it. I had never been to anything so otherworldy(?), nor have I since. Everyone dancing, but still focussed on the stage. Hours of being transported from reality into the feelings, emotions, and movement. It was incredibly immersive. These guys and many others like them were the reason I emigrated to the UK.

[@donnakubiski5572]

Even though I knew the songs "Just Can't Get Enough" and "People Are People", I really didn't get into them until I saw the 1986 movie Modern Girls. The song "But Not Tonight" was on the soundtrack which I really liked and it led me to purchase my first Depeche Mode album Black Celebration. I've been a huge fan ever since. Looking forward into seeing more reactions because they have so many great songs. A few of my favorites are "Halo", "Little 15", "World In My Eyes", "In Your Room", "One Caress" and "A Matter Of Time". There are so many more that the list could go on and on.

[@jacopobelbo1399]

This is a band that reinvented itself at least 3 times: started as UK-weenie elctro-pop (just can't get enough); next phase was dark synch perfection (master & servant, violator and many others) and third came their Los Angeles heroin chic dark rock synth phase (walking in my shoes). During the early/mid 80s to the early 90s there were 4 UK bands that got pretty big eventually but started out sorta obscure especially in the USA: Cure, Smiths, DM and U2 ... and while anyone who adopted them early before they got semi-big usually liked more than one of them they usually had one of them that they identified with more than the others; the really introverted sensitive gothy types often loved the Cure most, the nerdy sensitive white guys like myself were Smiths/Morrissey identifiers and while i never knew a teens/20s ish person actually cool enough to identify with DM (many faked it or pretended to) they were the band of the coolest kid you knew who smoked and was a tortured soul (DM had lots of female fans who lusted for Dave Gahan) ... and mainstream dorks liked U2 who were the lamest of these bands by a country mile and couldn't musically or culturally hold a candle to any of the other three.

DM is one of my top favorite bands from college days. I can't even count how many time I saw them live. Their was a movie in the early 80s called Summer Lovers and DM is played in the background of a scene. Just Can't Get Enough caught my ear and I searched out the band.

[@direlyon]

DM is all my life...saw them 4 times in concert....each time like a celebration....a religion without danger.... 43 years of grace

[@jaquettajones]

What I love about the 80's specifically New Wave is that artist just interpreted their songs in their Own (distinct authentic) Voice. No One was trying to OUT Sing or OUT perform each other with vocal gymnastics and histrionics. It never occurred to me that that would ever be a thing and it makes me wish that that was not the case in modern music.

[@st3wi3D]

"Depress Mode" is what they were also called. Some of their stuff is cool but also very dark.

[@christaiveson6344]

They are awesome live!!!

[@joni-ll6mj]

Yes, this was big. The song and the band were huge. Absolute megastars. This is the category pf band and song where it is hard to believe that somebody never noticed it before. If you liked it, Depeche mode is a band with many megahits. I think "Personal Jesus" might be a good one to react to. They also do very good concerts and there are excellent live versions of their songs. I personally love the gentle live version of "Shake the disease", which also has beautiful lyrics.

[@Arieeeee]

This is probably their most mainstream song from their arguably best album Violator that came out in 1989. I say arguably because while every song on there is a hit without any fillers, us Depeche Mode fans are too cool admit that a song or album with the most commercial success is our favorite! I for one will fully admit this is my favorite song from their best album :) Sad part is that I didn't become a Depeche Mode fan until the 90's. During the actual 80's I didn't realize how many great songs they already have, or about the world of synthetic pop, new wave, or 80's club music because I was a dumb kid who thought you had to listen to one genre (mine was heavy metal and rock) and it wasn't until I mentally matured more that I opened my eyes and really got into that stuff! Since you started in 1989 at the peak of their success, jump ahead to a few years later after drugs almost took Dave's life and listen to a few songs like Walking in my Shoes from the Songs of Faith and Devotion and you'd see a stark contrast. Then jump back to the early 80's and see them as babies and how much more upbeat the were!

[@emilianoserranosouza1991]

I was able to see them live in Barcelona, astounding, one of my best memories !! ❤❤ great reaction bro!!!

Spell it " Depeche Mode " the French way, as the name comes from a mode magazine based in Paris at a time. Greetings from France :)
