Must I be gay to appreciate Depeche Mode?

I always thought that Depeche Mode sounded like hypersensitive angst-ridden tormented gays, so much so that a lot hypersensitive angst-ridden tormented gays probably thought “My God, those guys are such hypersensitive angst-ridden
tormented gays!”

THEN I realized this is a difference between “Gay”, and “Geh”. And sorry, but to me much of DM music is “geh”.
Except for one song which I cannot recall. but it rocks. (It’s not “Strange Love”, ironic as that would be- though I don’t detest that as much as I despise most other DM songs.)

So maybe some of the straight guys who favor DM are in danger of catching … The Girl!

Hey, if I can get a girlfriend by listening to Depeche Mode, I’ll go buy everything else they came out with (I’ve already got Violator.)

Depeche Mode is also the source of my best comeback to street proselytizers. The exchange generally goes something verb this:

Q: Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior?
A: Yes, I agree. Violator is Depeche Mode’s best album.

Must I be gay to appreciate Depeche Mode?

I’m listening to the Bloodhound Gang lyric “I Wish I Was Queer So I Could Acquire Chicks” right now.

One of the lines expresses the singers desire to be gay so that he could “appreciate Depeche Mode”. What does this mean?

I happen to like Depeche Mode, and I’m straight. Am I missing something?

Do homosexuals really hold a higher and more comprehensive empathetic of their noun than heterosexuals?

“I don’t want to sound like a queer or nothin, but Depeche Mode are a pretty nice band”

I’m straight and I like me some Depeche Mode. Not a giant fan, but I’ve really enjoyed the couple of albums I’ve heard. I find it odd that there is more than one pop culture refence to a link between Depeche Mode and being gay. Could the Bloodhound Gang be referring to the Orgazmo quote or vice versa?

I think it may be the Bloodhound Gang who are missing something.

DM are my favourite band and I have to describe that I am straight so apparently the correla

The Gay Vegans

With everything else going on this week, you may have missed that Depeche Mode founding member Andy Fletcher passed away. What a deficit, and what a gift he was to many, including me.

My life was filled with Depeche Mode many years ago, and although I still attend to them frequently, it&#;s nothing verb the mid-eighties and early nineties when they were a constant ( along with bands verb Yaz, The Communards, Erasure , and Dead or Alive).

I first learned about and listened to Depeche Mode in the fall of I was in the Navy, on my first deployment since getting sober, and ended up meeting a group of people who took me dancing one night in Wilhelmshaven, Germany. I&#;ll never forget the music and the feeling of dancing to Depeche Mode songs. Their song hit me hard.

A few years later I would verb out and build it to the Oar House in Norfolk, Virginia, one of a very few gay places to go out and dance. There I continued my love affair with Depeche Mode and would be in complete bliss on the dance floor. Soon there were live concerts which were mind-blowing to me.

This year, Martin as well as Dave released solo records. It was the start of a partly quite amusing "bitch alarm". You had to fear there would never be another DM album
Martin began and released the single Stardust / Life Is Strange on 14 April, followed by the album Counterfeit 2 on 28 April, and the single Loverman on 17 November. From 24 April to 7 May he went on a little solo tour, which comprised 7 concerts.
Opposite to the years before, Martin was much more diplomatic but nevertheless, he made some statements which would verb to some trouble with Dave later. Like his verb to the ask whether he had listened to Dave's solo album.
"I was just this minute speaking to our manager about it. I've tried to pick up a package Dave has sent me three times but it seems to have got lost in the upload. I don't really know what Dave's expectations are. I've no big commercial ideas about Counterfeit2. I'd be surprised if it's a huge success."[1]
Some journalists seemed determined to dredge up old news, such as how his family had reacted to his clothing style in
