Devocion Por Las Masas – Tributo A Depeche Mode

Release year: 2004
Release version: Physical release
Label: El Diablo!
Type: Compilation

The tracks from Digital 21 and Sexy Sadie have been released earlier on their own CDs.

Dear artist “Deluxe”: Your piano interpretation of “Everything Counts” is very nice, same to your vocals. But why the hell didn’t you READ the lyrics before singing them? What you sing here is just hilarious, some of your lyrics make no sense at all! Do you really understand what you sing with your own mouth? I believe NOT… :-(

Anyway – there’s also a VERY nice cover on this CD: Luxury’s cover of ‘Shake The Disease’. My Favourite!!!

Although I already owned all regular releases, I started "seriously" collecting Depeche Mode's releases from all over the world in the late 80s. But when the internet and espacially eBay came up, I wanted to specialise my collection, because with eBay it was not a question of "how to find a rarity?" anymore, but just a question of "who pays the most?". That was the start of my collection of Depeche Mode cover versions.

I really like it when artists create a completely new mood in a cover version. For me, the best covers are very often just unknown tracks on an artist's album, while many tribute compilations are just "sound-a-likes" without own creativity.
