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 "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
