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 "Home"

Here is a song
From the wrong side of town
Where I’m bound
To the ground
By the loneliest sound
That pounds from within
And is pinning me down

Here is a page
From the emptiest stage
A cage or the heaviest cross ever made
A gauge of the deadliest trap ever laid

And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I’ve found
That I belong here

The heat and the sickliest
Sweet smelling sheets
That cling to the backs of my knees
And my feet
I’m drowning in time
To a desperate beat

And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I’ve found
That I belong

Feels like home
I should have known
From my first breath

God send the only true friend
I call mine
Pretend that I’ll make amends
The next time
Befriend the glorious end of the line

And I thank you
For bringing me here
For showing me home
For singing these tears
Finally I’ve found
That I belong here
