Wasn't there some minor local uproar back then since the video was sponsored by West-Berlin television but the girl walked *that* close to the Wall she technically was violating East-German territory? What an absurd city we (and they!) lived in...
I'm a hide DM fan, but this video sucks! They look so uncomfortable. So what that there's a chick walking by gazing at them; why doesn't she meet with them or David? Martin looks like Allanah Carrie from the Thompson Twins. It's just an amateur mess! Sorryyyy!
One of them who sings "understand me..." in this video looks like a slut. A cock-sucker? A fag? Confusion of the sexual identity? Neither a man nor a woman. What pieces of shit are all those fags and other perverts.
This vid. was filmed in Berlin during the "Wallcity"- times. Only somebody who expierienced that special feeling in Western- Berlin could know what it means to live there. It was a great and spooky- time. Thanks guys for the two vids, (everything counts) which conserved this feeling of my youthtime.
@Regnal64 Grew up under the threat of "the bomb" in the UK during the 70s 80s, there was a sensation in the air, so I can identify with that special feeling in the divided Berlin.
Yet another video that has absolutely nothing to do with the song, just a random video sampled with their song, thus creating mindless entertainment for our youth. Good plan!

As i remember it's not the official video of this song. The official is different and i sometimes think what productive band is DM. They have created 12 studio albums, a lot of singles not included to the albums and their videos are so intersting and nice.
this is cool stuff. i should say DM is making another remix album with vince clark, alan wilder, nick rhodes from Duran Duran, and some other people too, while a remix of "personal jesus" is gonna be a single (like enjoy the silence 04). Oh, did i mention that Alan Wilder is rejoining the band.
Whoever said Shia looks like Dave Gahan is crazy... Gahan is much cuter. And Angelina Joile should be worried after seeing those super glossed lips of Martin's in this video.
@littleempirefilms they look uneasy because music videos were a new thing in the 80's.... ever heard the term "video killed the radio star"? nowadays we have music video directos and music video producers... before it was just grab acamera and lets see what happens lol
@1coteca yea music then was about great lyrics and new synth sounds... like "blasphemous rumours" or "stripped". i like DM's music before ULTRA album occured. playing the angel brought back some of their old sounds and got my approval :-)
@davidorozco86 They had a few videos before this though. and it wasn't just lets see what happens they actually had plans when filming videos. Back then they also had directors. Don't insult directors who made videos back in the days. Also referencing "Radio Killed..." doesn't explain why they are uneasy.
@werm277 hey buddy i didnt insult any directors... especially not anton corbin, but you wouldnt know that he was one of DM's directors. as far as DM's videos, Ive seen almost all of them if not all. this video is a great example of DM being uneasy in front of a camera, they didnt get really famous until probably Violator. SO please do your research on what you are talking about next time. Yours truly, a DM Fan from California
@davidorozco86 hahaha you're funny. Of course i know Anton Corbijn you are the one who spelled his name wrong. I also know he directed "Control" as well as most of DM's videos. I can't believe you just said i wouldnt know who he was i'm a Comm Arts major i study this. I can even tell you what Corbijn filming style is. hahaha
@werm277 ummm what is this a spelling bee? lol who cares how his name is spelled its only youtube... well believe that i said it because i wrote it... so whats your point?
just re-listened to it in the middle of the night & it's always haunting & always beautiful. my DM favorite, i could dance alone in the dark to it...who could "understand me"
The best days. Silver tranquil waters so pure. Can't you hear the rivers flowing so pure and true, so clean in expression. we were kids and we did not even know.
Thank God for hthese presents and gifts from our maker.

You say to yourself, "What in the hell is this?" The barge zips past you and is gone.
