Top 5 Depeche Mode Songs
You could throw a dart at any band and find out that the songs were influenced by Depeche Mode. This band has solidified its way into the hearts and minds of many fans from the 80s and an audience kept finding them (that includes yours truly). Now keep in mind that I am just a music fan, I don't count these songs as lesser or greater than the others. I'm just a fan of the band.

Sh*t I Could Watch Over and Over and Do # 11
It's weird, staring down the barrel of thirty years. You have lines most indelibly etched into your steadily sagging face. Your bones hurt a lot more; there's less energy.

Rebound
Introduction Whenever I am away I always hope to find somewhere where I can buy a record or two, with a preference for vinyl, if I find it interesting enough. I do have a huge CD and digital collection so I seldom buy things in digital format, and the reality is that I don't need any more vinyl but often find something that piques my interest.

''Crescendo of Fate''
In the humble community of Harmonia, settled inside the moving slopes of the open country, there existed an old legend known as the Crescendo of Destiny. It was said that every 100 years when the powers of providence lined up in a specific group of stars, the destiny of the town would be tried through a progression of preliminaries.
