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.

Lyrics of "Everything Counts"

The handshake seals the contract
From the contract there’s no turning back
The turning point of a career
In Korea being insincere
The holiday was fun-packed
The contract, still intact

The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves – after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves – after all
It’s a competitive world
Everything counts in large amounts

The graph on the wall
Tells the story of it all
Picture it now
See just how
The lies and deceit gained a little more power
Confidence – taken in
By a suntan and a grin

Everything counts in large amounts
