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 "What's Your Name?"

Sometimes watch you walk the street at midnight
Sometimes I can feel you in the air
Looking good, knew you would
All the time I understood

Hey you’re such a pretty boy
Hey you’re such a pretty boy
Hey you’re such a pretty boy
You’re so pretty

Everybody seems to look your way now (everybody seems to look your way)
Everybody wants to know your name (hey hey, what’s your name?)
Feeling right, just tonight
Hear them say you’re out of sight

Hey you’re such a pretty boy
Hey you’re such a pretty boy
Hey you’re such a pretty boy
You’re so pretty

Hey you’re such a pretty boy
Hey you’re such a pretty boy
Hey you’re such a pretty boy
You’re so pretty

All the boys we got to get together
All the boys together we can say
We can go, never know
All the things we need to show

Hey you’re such a pretty boy
Hey you’re such a pretty boy
Hey you’re such a pretty boy
You’re so pretty

Hey you’re such a pretty boy (you’re so pretty)
Hey you’re such a pretty boy (you’re so pretty)
Hey you’re such a pretty boy (P R E double-T Y)
You’re so pretty

Hey you’re such a pretty boy
Hey you’re such a pretty boy
Hey you’re such a pretty boy
You’re so pretty
