Is simplicity best
Or simply the easiest?
The narrowest path
Is always the holiest
So walk on barefoot for me
Suffer some misery
If you want my love
If you want my love
Man will survive
The harshest conditions
And stay alive
Through difficult decisions
So make up your mind for me
Walk the line for me
If you want my love
If you want my love
Idle talk
And hollow promises
Cheating Judases
Doubting Thomases
Don't just stand there and shout it
Do something about it
You can fulfill
Your wildest ambitions
And I'm sure you will
Lose your inhibitions
So open yourself for me
Risk your health for me
If you want my love
If you want my love
If you want my love
If you want my love
~Depeche Mode, Songs of Faith and Devotion

I seem to know a lot of ladies on flickr that listen to Depeche Mode and I'm about ready to download their music and see what I am missing.
My personal fave albums are "Violator," "Songs of Faith and Devotion" and "Playing the Angel," but there's fantastic work on every record.
Martin Gore is one of my favorite songwriters, Andy Fletcher makes electronic magic, and Dave Gahan knows exactly how to interpret their collective emotion in his affecting vocals. Gahan did some writing himself on "Angel" and his personal reflections only enhance the impact of their music.
Needless to say, I love 'em.
