Enjoy the Silence [Strange Version]Depeche Mode

Released: October 1, 1990

Songwriter: Martin L. Gore

Producer: Flood Depeche Mode

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
Words like violence break the silence
Come crashing in into my little world
Painful to me, pierce right through me
Can't you understand? Oh, my little girl

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

[Interlude]

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
Vows are spoken to be broken
Feelings are intense, words are trivial
Pleasures remain, so does the pain
Words are mеaningless and forgettable

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
All I еver wanted
All I ever needed is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

[Interlude]

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

[Interlude]

[Outro: Dave Gahan]
Enjoy the silence

Depeche Mode

Depeche Mode are recognized as one of the most artistically influential bands of the late 20th century. Commercially, they have released 14 studio albums to date, and sold more than 100 million records. Their most recent album, Spirit, hit the streets in March 2017.

The band got their start in Basildon, Essex in 1980, and named themselves after a French fashion magazine. They rose to fame with hits that have become “Just Can’t Get Enough” (1981), “Everything Counts” (1983), and “People Are People” (1984), to name a few. One of their most famous concerts was at the Pasadena Rose Bowl in 1988.

Martin Gore has been the band’s primary songwriter since Vince Clarke left in the early 1980s (and went on to form Yazoo and Erasure). Alan Wilder replaced Clarke on keyboards in 1982, but left in 1995 (reinvesting his creative energy in his band, Recoil, which he had started in 1986). Since then, the band has comprised frontman Dave Gahan, multi-instrumentalist Martin Gore, and keyboardist Andy Fletcher—all of whom are original members.
