Tune of the Week: Never Let Me Down Again

For their first few albums Depeche Mode took great care in how they opened and closed their full lengths. The opening track would almost certainly set the tone for the proceedings and the closing track would be a heavy-duty epic. For their larger than lfe sixth album, “Music For the Masses”, they came up with possibly the best opening track of all time. Themeatically, it has more than a passing resemblance to The Velvet Underground’s “Waiting for the Man”. Photographer Anton Corbijn created a humorous/surrealistic take on the tune in the video above that is well worth clicking full screen for. Enjoy!
