"We first heard Achtung Baby working on Songs Of Faith And Devotion with Flood. It was the closest our bands ever got: U2 had become more electronic while Depeche Mode were working on a new rock vision. But there was never a rivalry. Bono used reverse psychology in his email, saying he totally understood why we'd say no. We just thought, Why not? So Cruel is Bono at his best, words-wise. And we couldn't tackle One - that would be almost sacrilegious" Martin Gore

  • Over 350,000 views! WOW!

  • amazing voice but it would be better if they didnt change the music

  • Even better than the (real thing) original version.

  • The only thing better than Dave's voice is Martin and Dave together.

  • 51 people, "crossed the line, who pushed them over? .... The 1,558 likes.

  • @slashpol12 I think I'd hafta agree after this, and Bono is a brilliant singer!

  • Magic Leadvoice

  • I prefer DM's "Freelove" or "Light", because those ones are more "touching". I guess it's because I prefer Martin's writing better.
