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 "Dreaming Of Me"

Light switch, man switch
Film was broken only then
All the night fused tomorrow
Dancing with a distant friend

Filming and screening
I picture the scene
Filming and dreaming
Dreaming of me

And so we left understanding
Clean cuts on the sounding past
Talked of sad, I talked of war
I laughed and climbed the rising cast

Filming and screening
I picture the scene
Filming and dreaming
Dreaming of me

Quickly I remember views
And saw a face before
Timing, reason, understanding
Like association hole

Filming and screening
I picture the scene
Filming and dreaming
Dreaming of me

Dreaming of me
Just dreaming of me
It’s only me
Just me
