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 "Only When I Lose Myself"

It’s only when I lose myself in someone else
Then I find myself
I find myself
It’s only when I lose myself in someone else
Then I find myself
I find myself

Something beautiful is happening inside for me
Something sensual, it’s full of fire and mystery
I feel hypnotized, I feel paralized
I have found heaven

There’s a thousand reasons
Why I should not spent my time with you
For every reason not to be here I can think of two
Keep me hanging on
Feeling nothing’s wrong
Inside your heaven

It’s only when I lose myself in someone else
Then I find myself
I find myself
It’s only when I lose myself in someone else
Then I find myself
I find myself

I can feel the emptiness inside me fade and disappear
There’s a feeling of contentment now that you are here
I feel satisfied
I belong inside
Your velvet heaven

Did I need to sell my soul
For pleasure like this
Did I have to lose control
To treasure your kiss
Did I need to place my heart
In the palm of your hand
Before I could even start
To understand

It’s only when I lose myself in someone else
Then I find myself
I find myself
It’s only when I lose myself in someone else
That I find my life
I find myself
It’s only when I lose myself in someone else
Then I find myself
I find myself
