A band I didn’t like at time but hear on radio now and there’s a few good tunes.

I remember seeing them in the 80s at friars, didn't really get why they made it as big as they did... Huuuge.... Don't know too many of their tunes but would go for personal jesus as it suited dave gahans voice really well.

Although the connotation behind the song. Little 15 is a fucking masterpiece. The sense of hope inside the tragedy of the lyrics. Most people think its about some pervy old guy chasing a young girl when in fact it's the other way round. And was written about an older woman tyring to seduce and re-live her life through a 15 year old boy and was written about a boy they knew at school

Why? If he’d have stayed around they’d never have become such a global phenomenon; one chord synth pop lasted a couple of years at best.

As much as I’d pay cash to watch Yazoo play a small venue again and as good as Erasure became, neither are anything close to Gore’s influence post Clarke (with an e).

Mode in their prime were one of the very best bands to ever grace a stage.

Pretty much everything until Alan Wilder left. Though I was not enamoured with SOFAD as the sound changed quite dramatically into some cheesy bluesy/wailing rock.

Enjoy the Silence is probably my favourite track (and that was hard choice!). Strangelove a close second.

Missed out on seeing them in Tiffany’s ( holds 120/140) in Glasgow the first ever visit, as went to see another band . Doh!

Made up for it as seen them all over Europe/ uk.

Have all the 12” singles, too.

Dreaming of me - for its period simplicity.

Home - very underrated track.

Wilder is classically trained and arguably the only true “musician” in the band, Mode definitely lost a key element once he left.

Mode have never quite been the same once Wilders’ influence/presence/arrangement differences with Gore was gone.

That said, elements of Ultra, Exciter, Angel are superb, Mode have never released a ‘complete’ album since Violator or Devotion.

Don’t get me started on Delta or Spirit

I couldn't agree more. Wilder was the only one in the studio at 3am in the morning, shaping and getting the timbre right on a key element whilst others were absent. That's soul-destroying and I've been in that position myself. Especially when I've spent several hours listening to the singer try to nail a take until we get it, and then come my turn with a bassline everyone's pissed off down the pub and are not interested.
