  • Great band! It's funny hearing such a deep voice come out of such a baby face back then. I didn't realize they started so young.

  • Martin Gore = genius composer

  • I still have the original single on vinyl to which this was the B-side, I never bothered with the A-Side much as this was much better.

  • 3':30" ... it's juste heavenly

  • Superb!

  • I do actually prefer this to Enjoy the silence!

  • where is Vincent Clark??

  • En 1982 j'écoutais beaucoup de la musique avec mes parents mais je ne me souviens pas d'avoir entendue cette chanson au Québec,Canada.J'ai Internet depuis quelques semaines et j'ai découvert cette magnifique chanson qu'en 2011.Je vous aime DEPECHE MODE XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX :)

  • Just thumbs up this video for synths being awesome.

  • I am the champion of the ninjas.

  • He's great !

  • dont put enough heart into the song just seems to churn it out

  • hallaylughya

  • Fuck he looks young there!

  • It's king!!!!!:)

  • A Broken Frame is one of my favorite albums, and I never get tired of Speak & Spell. And Construction Time Again gets me every time. I love this live video, it's just superb!

  • Hey! Fletch was playing! ahah joke :D love this <3

  • love this version,my eight old boy loves this song

  • not alan it!! anyway if it does not look like it at all!

  • They were a good live band. Posterity hasn't been to kind to the early-'80s Synth-Pop scene, but songs like this blunt the edge of that criticism. This is one of my most favorite songs ever, from start to finish just perfect. The synth solo at the end is one of the greatest fades in Pop music.

  • Tooo young! Can't handle it! how old IS Dave here? he looks very small :))

  • @MilleniumOfSnow I think this clip is from 1982, so Dave is about 20 years old here. Really young indeed.

  • @smallsister2 he is beautiful isn't he? aged very well looks very very young today like a quality wine

  • i was brought here by 'faded paper figures' :D good stuff

  • the start of a great band....great video...got to love the shuffle @ 2:17....that was great....lol

  • Now this is what i call new wave, i would like depeche mode to now do a dark wave version of this tune so we they can release remaster,remix album NEW WAVE versus DARK WAVE

  • yea man classic

  • Love Depeche Mode in the 80's. Best band ever in that era. Great memories.

  • holy f@#* does he look young, baby skin, before the drugs.....

  • Gahan, Fletch, Martin, and Mssrs. Wilder...there is no Vin Clarke present,

    but Clarke is probably responsible for this fine piece of music

    Cheers

  • How could the audience sit still all the time??? Ôo

    It's a very great video!!! ♥

  • 12 people would prefer to abort.

  • What a different class of music.Puts the rubbish on offer today firmly in its place(the gutter).80's was the decade.

  • Techno rock rules

  • ant man its me dec

    check it out

  • I still can't get over David Gahan in a SUIT and TIE!!!! Too cool

  • when was this,,in 80 what....

  • @jdu6 82

  • herligt vince clark - bortset fra at du ikke er der

  • herligt vince clark

  • top tune

  • Take me back to the 80s :)

  • A good live performance

  • I've been thinking about this song non-stop since the big Nasa announcement!

  • Classic ! :D

    depeche-mode-megamix.blogspot

  • Those synths...so good!

  • True pioneers of that earthy electronic sound..this track is totally brilliant and original in every respect - with maybe a small debt to the NY band Suicide.Have quite a few Mode cd's in my collection- an important band to me.

  • Oh man the dancing....classic.

  • Great live video, thanks for uploading! :)

  • at the begining its like Airwaves...

  • Que no daría por escuchar esta canción en vivo.

  • thumbs up if you were brought here because you just love Depeche Mode

  • @atebit80 I'm just a big fan...Their early stuff is fantastic, pretty overlooked.

  • @atebit80 I just can't get enough Depeche Mode !

  • amazing,, ahead of its time !!! brings back great memories !

  • Whoever said mode's first three albums were junk needs a history lesson... Speak and Spell is a classic, I'll never understand why people hate A Broken Frame so much, and Construction Time Again is music at its best. Seriously don't bash if you haven't done your homework first!

  • Listen to them everyday in my car back and forth to work still. They are one of my core 4 aside from OMD, New Order and Simple Minds. And I agree that the early stuff is there best.

  • @devoteelife

    Well, anyone who bashes these early albums is no true Depeche Mode fan, but a hipster poser, and a moron to boot!

  • @devoteelife

    Speak and Spell was a killer album.

  • @devoteelife

    Depeche Mode are up there amongst the great pioneering electronic acts of the 80's!

  • speak & spell!

  • @metallibanger, What are you talking about? You obviously don't have a ear for good early 80's synth-pop! DM's first three albums, "Speak & Spell", "A Broken Frame" and "Construction Time Again" were some of the best things to come out of the early 80's!

  • @metallibanger, What are you talking about? Uou obviously don't have a ear for good early 80's synth-pop! DM's first three albums, "Speak & Spell", "A Broken Frame" and "Construction Time Again" were some of the best things to come out of the early 80's!

  • Junk

  • i love the first album, so simple and so good!

  • dave and the boys at there best

  • who is the singer? ahahaha can't believe is the same person

  • The Best DM Rules

  • 80s best era?

  • PERFEKCYJNE,SKAD TO MACIE?

  • chocolate rain is like a little bit better than this

  • What's happened to my country?Where,s all the talent gone?

  • @captaincomputa.. These days everybody has gone goo goo over Lady Gaga

  • This is from a Swedish live show in 1982. Dave is only 20, but still his voice is so powerful.

  • @didjeridu100 yes that's right Dave is a voice very powerful NEW LIFE!!!!!

  • Thank you for posting this video... ^_^ That's HISTORY

  • Best Synth pop/Electronic band ever!...but four of them, with Alan Wilder,

    Nowdays they are still the best but they don't play too much live now in their keyboards, there are a lot of automatic sequences or complex spunds by one single key.

    Anyway, they are the best.

    Dave's voice was incredible, strong and powerful in this performance even the fact that they were so young!, ...Alan simply AWESOME!

  • QUE PEEEEEEEEEKE DAVE lindo lindo! ^^

  • MUSIKA DE AÑOZ. DE LA PUTA MARE. VAMOZ TODOS AL MAO BAR DEL CENTRO DE LIMA

  • d=p=c=e m=d=

  • please can someone tell me when this was?? i know the song was out in 1981

  • Moog Source and Roland Promars - this is great! I love this too much!!

  • great video quality! thanks for posting!

  • sorry bigandmeaty i simply meant that listening to this, i can see how crap and contrived the music they have to listen to today is. Lady fking Gaga and wall to wall Cowell shit

  • analogue synthie heaven...

  • Im 13 and i own over 60 80s albums including this, because i love it and hate all this new shit.

  • @BrickHillStudios Well, congrats but it doesn't make you a better person mate...

  • @MrYuppie Leave him alone!

    

  • this is ...........D M __________ The best

  • Comment removed

  • i feel sorry for teens today..the shit they have to listen too

  • @MIZHOG im sorry, could you explain exactly what you mean by that?

  • @bigandmeaty69 miss those days

  • Is that Nick Clegg singing?

  • @ParanoiaPetre ehh?

  • omg... with a tie

  • Almost 30 years old...

  • This was a period when music was INTERESTING and creative!! todays acts are a bunch of tossers with too many presets and samples up their ass!!

  • if i were to chose what era i would go back well its obvious that i want to go back to the 80's up to early 90's. best damn era in terms of music. I love DM.

  • so fucking awesome^^

  • haha..very nice)

    Dave look like children)

  • He is, I think he's only like 19 here

  • The Electronic Beatles.

  • Niezłe:)))

  • THIS IS DEPECHE MODE. EXCELLENT!

  • they should play old stuff its what made them famous

  • depeche should praise their early days more by playing more early mateirial like new life i just can't get enough see you. thsi is my favera of dpeche

  • Me too the other stuff was alot more commercial

  • 2 roky som mal

  • Brutálisan jó szám!! Hihetetlen mire voltak képesek régen egyesek!

  • Wow, this is like the only video where you can really see what Vince Clarke contributed to the group. Brings back some nice memories...

  • wow they look incredibly young they kick ass lol

  • The harmony of "Aaah" is a nod to The Beatles "Twist and shout" - the sound of a young band taking pop into a new life?

  • A mate of mine saw them this summer and they didn't play a single fucking tune from Speak and spell, they've gone "Nirvana".

  • In the Playing the Angel Tour the played Just Can't Get Enough, maybe they don't play this songs because these songs were written by Vince only and they don't feel them like theirs, it's just a thought, I saw this tour and they kicked asses so bad!

  • så djävla bra!!!

  • those were the days...;)..80s rules...

  • @TheHelena76 I'll sell my soul to live it over once more.

  • pro dancing

  • Pericol Frate

  • Loving this.......

  • This is the first time I have watched this video. They were freakin kids! But they were incredible - Classically PURE!

    No wonder they have lasted generations and are one of the mega groups that brought their contributed verses and sound to the masses.

  • Han pasado más de 30 años y continua siendo un tema brillante en el synth

  • i never heard them live. they sound amazing!!

  • So young and what a voice!!! ****

  • ¡¡¡Qué joven y qué voz tenía ya Dave!!! ****

  • I'm watching this for the first time almost 30 years later and it looks brilliant! I hope this was among my first cassettes, but can't really remember.

  • please tell me if these are this right nots for the begining

    D,C,D,B,A x4 (D in a lower octave!)

    D,C,B,A - D,C,B,A

  • That was a stunning documentary !

  • Nope. I was brought here by remembering/having the original ;) Classic. Having said that, Synth Brittania was excellent.

  • @DeadWhiteButterflies and the one on Prog Rock, too!

  • @DeadWhiteButterflies Was defo an execlent doco

  • @DeadWhiteButterflies - Great Docu, absolutely brilliant!

    

  • @DeadWhiteButterflies haha yep, part 6 right at the beginning. Man that scene would have been so fun to been a part of huh?

  • @DeadWhiteButterflies Nah mate,i've been into these since i was a kid

  • @DeadWhiteButterflies I've loved Depeche for a long time but the documentary made me remember about this brilliant song they did. :')

  • why do people make fun o fletch?

    hes huma just like everyone else

    he anit no diffrent

  • they look SOOO young. its insane!

  • Damn why did they split up so early. This is so good and their second album was soooo bad.

  • Dave Gahan's dancing is so funny.

  • remember zoot suits anybody?

  • yeah a lot of mexicans wore them in the bronx.

  • no mames que bien canta este hermano jaja amo a depeche mode jaja

  • Fraklsteisenstaach verbruchechuun!!!

  • Zajebisty kawałek!!:D wpada w ucho.

  • Hummmm, Mawashi !!!

  • What agreat upload, "Måndagsbörsen" was basically the best (and perhaps the only) television show where Swedish people at the time could watch the latest and coolest band of the early 80s like Depeche Mode and the Jam. The production and the hosts were however a bit tacky.

  • awesome i like the  older songs better then the new ones

  • everything until music for the masses was great. ultra was ok and exciter and everything since has been sub-par, almost non-depeche mode-like..

  • oh....my little depeche mode ;)

  • Awesome thank you for the upload!
