Hahah what friends do you hang out with? I'm 22 as well, and I have friends that are 21 - and we all listen to Depeche Mode!! My friends are all really into the 80s and retro stuff though. So if you're friends are more into the Top 40, rap crap, then that could be why.

Ya...what are you talking about guy? There's a bar here in Windsor that has retro nights every weekend and Depeche Mode is always on the play list - their ORIGINAL songs, not the EDM remixes. The place goes mad!
Maybe that's because people who go to a Retro night in the first place are the same kind of people who like DM....see the corroloation?

I'd like to see some statistics on that, b/c my group of friends that are into the 80s and retro stuff all hate EDM. All except for 2 of them.

Ahh...I thought you just forgot to put the E.
But my earlier point was made b/c you said that most people in your generation don't know who Depeche Mode is. I was saying that I'm the same age as you, as are many of my Windsor friends and they all know who Depeche Mode. So I wouldn't say its necessarily an age thing.
If it was an age thing, how would you explain lots of people are aged knowing a lot of 70s rock artists.

Totally agree with both your points. You don't know how long it took me and Josh to figure out the id for A Pain That I'm Used To.

Yeah, I'm really too lazy to upload the loads of DM material that I have. However, here's a live bootleg from the Ottawa show I was at 6 years ago that I just found on the NYTA download thread. Anyone feel like hearing one of Martin Gore's live DJ sets? Maybe, I'll upload later...
Depeche Mode Live at Ottawa -Bootleg- 13.06.2001

She can make you feel high full of the single greatest commodity known to man - promise. Promise of a better day. Promise of a greater hope. Promise of a new tomorrow. This particular aura can be found in the gait of a beautiful girl. In her smile, in her soul, the way she makes every rotten little thing about life seem like it's going to be okay. The supermodels, Willy? That's all they are. Bottled promise. Scenes from a brand new day. Hope dancing in stiletto heels.

love the band.
'stripped' is probably my fav song.
but house remixes of depeche mode are the most played out, cheesiest songs ever.
seriously, i wish everyone would just stop wih the DM remixes.
