(BONG13)!

"Strangelove" is one of the greatest songs by Depeche Mode (which tranlates to Fast Fashion in French). It is dark and sexy, with lyrics about love, devotion, S&M/B&D, submission, all without sounding pretentious or silly for that matter. There are some dope remixes, my favorite being the Maxi mix. The Blind Mix is cool as well. The piano heavy instrumental "PIMPF" is also on here, along with a few other mixes that are decent. Chow!

My Favorite Depeche Mode maxi Single

I am not much on buying individual tracks, as I either go for the album or hold out for inevitable "Greatest Hits" collections. "Strangelove" is one of my exceptions to the rule. I own this primarily for the "Pain" remix, which I humbly believe is better than the original (and I usually loathe remixes). The only other DM single I wish I could get would be the original maxi-mix of "Behind The Wheel/Route 66" that early promo versions had combined as one great song.

still one of the best...

This song was already great when first released, but when the version that the single CD has was even better. It was like one of those songs that when you hear it on the radio, you still turn up the volume :o)
