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 "Any Second Now"

She remembered all the shadows and the doubts
The same film
Vivid pictures like a wall that’s standing empty
And the night so still
Such a small affair
A relapse someone closing like the nightclub door
Here again and when you speak
I watch you move away and seem so sure

She is hoping to forget
And the moment almost slips away
When the colours move apart
Then I wonder if you want to stay
And I need to change you
Like the words I’m reading don’t you understand?
This the warning and the message I remember
As you touch my hand
