17th. February 2010, God sent down his angel, Alan Wilder, to Royal Albert Hall in order to teach us all not to give up our hopes. Probably the most beautiful moment of all times. Please give us back the reunion of Martin's lyrics, Alan's music and Dave's voice. Imagine the energy of having those three genies in the same studio again. I would sacrifice anything to listen just once to the 2010 result by the saints who made Songs Of Faith & Devotion. Bless you all..!
hay un detalle de este video, que no esta completo y es que, el que lo va a recibir despues de dejar a martin, es el mismo Fletcher con un abrazo bastante fuerte y sincero. Voten por ser este el video post del año en youtube.
Fletcher es el gil que les lleva los numeritos y las finanzas para lo unico que sirve en el escenario es para dar saltitos y aplaudir. Wilder es el que le cambio el sonido a Depeche.
I just posted pretty much this on the Depeche Mode tour blog page: I REALLY hope new Depeche fans realize how amazing and important this moment and song in particular are. You hope it inspires a new beginning, and I agree that it reminded me, too, of the Pink Floyd reunion. I love what Depeche is made up of now - Peter and Christian are great - but this is truly special. Thank You for posting.
What a great feeling...to see them together playing after so many years. Would this be a new begining ? I hope so. It's like a lost love....you always hope to meet her again, te be together again.
if you watch the dvds on the deluxe editions, you will see
that they knew they had there work cut out for them,
these albums in the past 16 years, really have NO DYNAMICS, they just sound linear and monotone, to me they sound like demos, and you will also see that in the past 17 years they have spent more money on remixing than they ever did,
NO, WE FIRST NEED ALAN TO REMAKE THE LAST 3 ALBUMS OF DEPECHE MODE, lock him up in the studio with Flood and Alan Moulder and redo the music, cause they sound NOTHING LIKE DEPECHE MODE ...
That is what I was actually thinking yesterday after I saw Alan at the piano. I have been critized many times when saying that Depeche Mode without Alan sounds like the bands who wanted to sound like Depeche Mode. I event went to Wikipedia and asked the new keyboard player to leave the band once.
Sometmes I get greedy, and hope for a full Depeche Mode Reunion, one which would see the return of Alan Wilder and Vince Clarke to the band, and one where Daniel Miller will return to assist in the capacity of music producer.
If Depeche Mode had a Reunion Tour/Album...it would be their biggest, and most successful musical effort, of all time!!!
I don't think, he is at the level of being musician of anybody else, I still listen to Bloodline, Liquid, Unsound methods, and despite the old technology of those times, I could say his music was very advanced, and is still ahead of anybody today.
I think Depeche Mode should beg Alan to produce their CD's and live acts, that would be great.
@nspatchcock - I read on the Shunt (Recoil) website that Dave contacted Alan about 2 weeks ago & invited him to perform onstage for the charity benefit. And Alan asked Dave if everyone else favored the idea & Dave said "yes."
15 years is a loooooonngg time to wait. We don't want to wait any longer!!! You GOTTA make great hits again!! You GOTTA put DM back on the pedestal again!!
I hope this is not just a tease. I really hope there will be more appearances of Alan with DM in the upcoming future or better yet, maybe rejoining DM again. Oh PLEASE Alan, make us all veeerrrryyyy haaaaaapppyyyy!!! I miss listening to your sounds & your masterpieces. You just GOTTA come back with DM.
To me personally it's the most shocking event in recent years, even more shocking than 9/11 and MJ's death. I don't know, but this hug & smile at the end looked quite honest to me.
This gives me a lot of hope for great things. I mean come on... Alan Wilder playing with DM once more? I especially loved when Marty gave him that hug, it was so sweet!
Thank you poster of this video for focusing on Vodkaman. This is the best thing I have seen in my life since seeing DM live in 1993. I am as straight as can be but I love this man, I love this band, I am in shock, and I am so unbelievably happy to see this with my own eyes, Alan, on stage performing with DM! This is heaven!
Alan's COMEBACK for SOMEBODY who NEVER LET ME DOWN AGAIN is a BLACK CELEBRATION with a band keeping THE GET BALANCE RIGHT. it was just A QUESTION OF TIME....
