In June of 2020, looking for a way to interact artistically during the COVID-19 lockdown, the producer-songwriter Libra invited a group of artists to record (each one from their homes) a version of the song “It Doesn’t Matter Two” by the legendary British band, Depeche Mode. The features artists are: My Dying Bride, Apocalyptica, Anneke Van Giersbergen, Paradise Lost, Moonspell, Type O Negative, Athanasia and Ruud Jolie.
This might be the most epic version of ‘It Doesn’t Matter Two’.
As I lay here with you
The shame lies with us
We talk of love and trust
That doesn’t matter
Though we may be the last in the world
We feel like pioneers
Telling hopes and fears
To one another
And oh what a feeling
Inside of me
It might last for an hour
Wounds aren’t healing
Inside of me
Though it feels goos now
I know it’s only for now
The feeling is intense
You grip me with your eyes
And then I realise
It doesn’t matter
