Second single goes for adds on July 20th. I like this album but I didn't really feel anything was as immediate as "Wrong". It will be interesting to see how a more straightforward track does on the charts.

In all fairness, though, Depeche Mode, to me anyway, has never been about immediacy, and have far more depth and intrigue to their sound than almost all other bands of their time and caliber.
They've almost never had "obvious singles" to me. Their catalog just grows on you exponentially as time goes on.
Sincerely,
Noah Eaton

That's probably true. I'm just getting into them really.

They have so many awesome songs. And metal/hard rock/alternative acts love to cover them:
Finger Eleven - Walking In My Shoes
Lacuna Coil - Enjoy The Silence
Moby - World In My Eyes
Dope - People Are People
Marilyn Manson - Personal Jesus
There may be more...

Gravity Kills has done a great version of "Personal Jesus". And of course A Perfect Circle did a unique take on "People Are People".

Lacuna Coil - Enjoy The Silence You can pretty much add any active rock band to that list. When I saw this thread, I thought someone had bumped "Precious" for a split second. |

This song is not really one of my favorites on the album. I'm a fan of "Little Soul," "In Sypmathy" and "Miles Away." I really couldn't see "Peace" doing anything in the U.S. so I don't blame them.
I hear about the album being grower-fare but I still think it's my least favorite Mode album since A Broken Frame. However it is only because they have high expectations and rarely stray from excellence. It might chart.
