Talk:Depeche Mode discography

226: 578:"I'm sorry but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. I know it doesn't sound the way I planned it to be. But if I had to walk the the world to make you fall for me; I promise you, I promise you I will." These are the lyrics to a song that I always thought was named "I Promise You I Will". Where I grew up in Los Angeles it was played on the radio frequently, however I cannot find any mention of it in the Depeche mode article or discography. 21: 106: 244: 323: 298: 837: 1341:. I always thought that the existence of those releases were something like "common knowledge" within Depeche fans. The Spanish "Told You So"-7" for example is a very "sought after" item, I believe. But as I previously wrote none of these releases did chart so they are likely to be unknown to the listener by chance because they were neither played on the radio nor have been ever performed at TV shows... 158: 137: 736:

correct. I an considering it (as it is getting some attention in my book on the band) but I would prefer to wait until all 48 are released (48 because one show was cut short due to illness, and another was cancelled). Perhaps John, you could do a preliminary entry? Not to say that you can't do the whole shebang if you want, I just didn't want to seem lazy and give you all the work! :)

page—both the "music videos" and "video albums" sections are present on the discography page and get regularly updated, and the "DVD singles" and "tour projections" sections can be incorporated into pages of said singles and concert tours. Therefore, I suggest the videography page to be redirected to

Sorry to be pedantic, but I guess that's why we are here, right? "Dreaming of Me" is designated as a non-album single because it was not included on the original UK release of Speak and Spell, so when the single was released, it was not promoting an album, but rather was a stand-alone. Subsequent UK

735:

I was wondering how the 50-date live recordings should be handled in the discography. I think it is unprecedented (I am not sure Pearl Jam released this many official live recordings) and a bit unweildy since if one is to do the entry, he or she would have to be careful to get the dates and set lists

2429:

There's quite a series of them. Appellations differ, but the most common appears to be "Compact Disc Maxi-Single." A majority share similar disc graphics, starting with a string of linked circles (usually silver, sometimes white) running down the left side. At least one interferes with the prim BONG

Just out of curiosity, why include the Aussie and New Zealand charts but not Germany, Canada, Norway, etc? I realize chart info is a pain to research so I am not going to complain (nice to have archive info on the charts you do have). I know, for example, that the band chart higher and more often in

1886:

98 release and Video Singles Collection, respectively... but ETS and PJ live from 1993 were released as videos where, besides the Devotional video (among many, many other songs) - why are they being listed separately here? I have seen no official I Feel Loved live video either - YouTube has nothing

967:

you'll see that it is simply someone's pet project. The "record" itself is also of questionable notability: Why just the Top 40? Why not Top 10 or Top 75 etc? I suspect the record is set at Top 40 is because Everyhit only covers the Top 40. Despite numerous searches on google I can't seem to find a

715:

That's cool. I didn't have German chart info pre-People Are People so it was helpful. Still, I would love to see a comphrensive "one-stop" chart info article. It is weird how hard it is in this day and age to get what should be relatively straightforward info. I sometimes think record execs don't

677:

Kudos to the article author. This info is valuable to researchers like myself. How does one go about finding sales and chart info? Do you pay a fee to Billboard and get the data? It doesn't seem to be on their website for free. Also, it seems next to impossible to find non-UK/US chart info on the

909:

I believe Depeche Mode hold the record for the most British top 20/top 40 hits without having a number one (or even a top three song). I'll try to look this up and verify this: if I can provide a link as proof, surely this would be worth including on this page?

1884:

I'm curious why some songs are being listed as having official "live" videos (i.e. Enjoy the Silence and Personal Jesus 1993, I Feel Loved 2001). I understand videos like Condemnation (Live) and Should Be Higher (Live) - released on the Videos 86:

1145:

CD releases of the album do include Dreaming of Me as a "bonus track." But you are right to point out that continental and North American vinyl versions included it as a proper track. )But then you miss out on "I Sometimes Wish I Was Dead"!)

983:

OK, I understand about the policies on sources. No further mention of the website will be made to the opener, but having checked my copy of Guiness British Hit Singles I can confirm the original statement is true, to the best of my knowledge.

610:

Actually, "Route 66" could be (and will be, I'll take care of it in a second) in a note to the singles section...the version of "Behind the Wheel" that charted on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US was the "Megamix" of the two songs.

936:

I just reformatted the entire article and added references for all chart positions and certifications. I tried to make sure everything is correct, but if you find any mistakes or have any concerns give me a shout. --

589:, not Depeche Mode. Secondly, no, I don't believe "Route 66" should be necessarily mentioned, because it's a B-side (it was the B-side in the UK, and it was the B-side in the US), and is covered properly at " 1259:

Due to the fact that "Peace" and even non-physical 7 inches like "Halo" are mentioned, what about the band's other promotional single releases? As far as I know there have been six of that kind of release:

1376:

That's right, "One Caress" is the only promo-7" a video clip was made for. There is a performance of "Told You So" at the UK TV show "The Tube". By the way, all these releases can be found at the web page

2453:

The CD singles with linked circles to the left are re-releases of the original singles, they were released as part of the Singles Box sets, but were also available separately. See each single for details.

2532: 84: 35: 632:

I'm going to sorta second the question below. Depeche Mode have scored a LOAD of number ones in Eastern Europe, so the singles chart isn't really a fair representation, how do we fix it? --

I have reinstated my edit from way back, there is clearly more evidence that this is true than false, unless it can be proven this is not true I see no reason for it to be removed.

which verifies the information given. I have found another two promotional singles there, the above mentioned is valid for them, too: no chart hit, no video clip available...

2567: 2542: 460: 450: 198: 538:

Done. If anyone sees any major problem created by my move, please fix it, but I think this is much better than separating the singles from the rest of the discography.

1362:"Something to do (metal mix)" - would that come under "Remixes 04"? That's already in the article. I added "One Caress" - a video of that was definitely made. best, 2572: 2547: 2364: 2360: 2346: 2254: 2250: 2236: 2144: 2140: 2126: 2024: 2020: 2006: 1826: 1822: 1808: 1618: 1542: 1538: 1524: 2112: 2102: 1964: 1954: 2222: 1944: 1724: 2562: 426: 2557: 2537: 174: 864:, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with 2332: 264: 1212:

1628: 861: 801: 422: 413: 374: 581:

Route 66 and Personal Jesus are perhaps the two Depeche mode songs that most Americans know. Shouldn't it at least be mentioned in the article?

1198:

I'm sure this is mentioned somewhere on that site but have a look at www.depmod.com. Fact is that "Peace" is an Europe-only release after all...

I'm sure there are other notable unofficial compilations out there; perhaps a section dedicated to unofficial releases is worth pursuing.

CD. I hadn't been a particular fan, but this quirky collection of versions and remixes prompted me to dig back through their catalogue.

It depends. Are these countries where you only have to sell 20 copies to have a no.1 single? Hardly worth it if so.
