I am the founder and main author of the international synth pop magazine Electrozombies. Since my childhood I have been a devotee of melancholic, gloomy electronic music. Started in the late 70s with minimal electro band Kraftwerk and become a real synth pop fan through Depeche Mode's hit 'People Are People' in 1984.

I took over the depechemodecovers.com website in 2024 and relaunched it. As a big fan of Depeche Mode and cover versions, I dedicate myself passionately to this project.

Lyrics of "Free"

I will never be free
I shall never be released
From the chains that bind me
They torture and blind me
And keep me from peace

Oh, what heartache
Oh, what heartbreak
Following me
Calling to me

I will never be free
I shall never be released
From the chains that bind me
They torture and blind me
And keep me from peace

I will never be free
I will never be laid to rest
Sisters and brothers
I’ll never recover
From this tenderness

See what love breaks
Hear what love sings
Sad melodies
Enticing me

I will never be free
I shall never be released
From the chains that bind me
They torture and blind me
And keep me from peace

I will never be free
I will never be laid to rest
Sisters and brothers
I’ll never recover
From this tenderness
