I thought U2's cover of Night and Day had a very definite DM vibe to it.

With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

I find neglecting my children frees up a lot of spare time.

I was kind of hoping for a "well done soldier" from Scouser.

You have no idea.

In my defense for about half of those posts I was paid.

At least it kept him from interfering with his goodie bag for a while.

Up until he found the MLG photos and temporarily blinded himself.

Agreed. It's quite an interesting version of the old Cole Porter classic. gee, I could sing it better though.

Fragile tension= totally amazing

Depeche Mode has achieved what other bands only dream about--to come back and be even better than they were and still relevant to people today. The video is fabulous.
