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 "Sea Of Sin"

Sea of Sin
I’m swimming in
And I’m taking a dive

My mind’s in need
So my body feeds
And it keeps me alive

It gets better and better
As it gets wetter and wetter

Sea of Sin
Know where you’ve been
But I don’t care

Sea of Sin
Through thick and thin
For better or worse

My mind’s in need
So my body feeds
And it quenches my thirst

You look cheaper and cheaper
As we sink deeper and deeper

Sea of Sin
Know where you’ve been
‚cause I’ve been there

Here under God’s sky
His watchful eye
And all of the lies
My consolation prize

Sea of Sin
My second skin
My home from home

When I’m in doubt
My hands reach out
And I’m never alone

It gets wetter and wetter
As it gets better and better

Sea of Sin
Know where you’ve been
And I repent

Sea of Sin
Know where you’ve been
Yes I’m aware

Sea of Sin
Know where you’ve been
‚cause I’ve been there

Sea of Sin
Know where you’ve been
And I don’t care
