вЂњDaveвЂ™s never been better,вЂќ said Gore, the following year. VIDEO: Dave Gahan on MTV and VH-1 News circa 1997 His subsequent heroin and cocaine overdose was the final straw, the epiphany. You canвЂ™t bottom out much more than that, although Gahan, then 35, came close the previous summer when he slit his wrist in a suicide attempt. IвЂ™ve hardly ever written for a single, - slowly, very very obviously - where I felt I was not going to the right place.вЂќ вЂњBecause I always just sit down and write a collection of songs and then we try and work out which one we feel would do best commercially as a single. How did the singles differ from the album tracks? Were they written with a different or specific emphasis? (Their latest single вЂњOnly When I LoseвЂќ was doing a slow climb up the charts.) Which is to say, The Hits вЂ“ 21 tracks minus вЂњJust CanвЂ™t Get EnoughвЂќ вЂ“ but Gore assured вЂњwe do play a couple of songs that predate that, as well.вЂќ When Gore and I talked in 1998, the band was prepping for their first tour in four years, featuring their songs from their compilation, The Singles: 1986-1998. вЂњDepeche Mode is very based around MartinвЂ™s songs and he writes very well within a particular pop format,вЂќ Wilder told me in 1993.

His compositions tended to be lush, albeit melancholic, full of questions.

GoreвЂ™s songs worked on pop terms вЂ“ and over the years Gahan adapted to crowd-pleasing, arena-rock style projection вЂ“ but they were generally not the happiest of tunes, whether the subject be romance, spirituality, or capitalism.

Alan Wilder hooked up in 1981 (and left in 1995). Singer David Gahan joined slightly after Clarke, Gore and Andy Fletcher formed the band. In Depeche-land, synthist-guitarist Martin Gore вЂ“ who turns 60 July 23 rd вЂ“ took over the main songwriting duties for the 13 subsequent studio albums. By 1982, Clarke was out of the band to emerge shortly with Alison Moyet in Yaz (aka Yazoo in the U.S.) and then with Andy Bell in Erasure. IвЂ™m not saying Depeche Mode were on A Flock of Seagulls path, but, well, maybe.ДЄnd, then, that part of it was over. The top three, longest-lasting, still-popular, Brit bands of the new wave era? IвЂ™d make the case for The Cure, New Order and Depeche Mode.ДЄll the bands have had their unique and tangled histories and each have taken various synth swerves with their sound, but consider Depeche ModeвЂ™s particular and peculiar trajectory: When they came out of gate in 1981, the songs were written by synthist-sometime singer Vince Clarke whoвЂ™d penned the insanely catchy, upbeat synth-pop single, вЂњJust CanвЂ™t Get EnoughвЂќ as well as pretty much all the Speak & Spell album.
