Martin Gore is a really talented guy, a very good song writer. I am surprised that Vince made such a naff remix - however, he has a very different writing style, hence leaving DM all those years earlier. I think he and Gore are on a collective project at the moment (so watch out for more DM music being killed LOL).
I think Gore has an almost pure sounding tenor voice, that goes brilliantly with Dave's baritone. Ah Dave - still in love :-D
The remix reminds me of a kind of Chemical Brothers riff (you can almost here 'Hey Boy, Hey Girl'). I have listened to Dave Gahan's solo stuff - it's ok-ish, but again, not DM.
I really liked the 'Violator' album - I played it all of summer 2001 (God!!! 11 YEARS ago???) and 'Songs Faith/Devotion' especially 'Walking in My Shoes.'
I borrowed that LP from the library in 1990 - I drove my nextdoor neighbour absolutely batshit by continually playing 'Never Let Me Down.' Even now it gives me goosebumps :-)
