Enjoy the Silence

One of the most addictive tracks I've ever heard, Enjoy the Silence from Depeche Mode's Violator album (also featuring Personal Jesus, covered later by Marilyn Manson) simply blows my mind away every time i hear it...and the cover by the grindcore band It Dies Today is equally impressive. The main verse of "All i ever wanted, all i ever needed, is here in my arms| words are very unnecessary, they can only do harm" is one that will stick in your head for a while.

It was a good Oasis...made better by the fact that Lounge Piranha comprehensively showed everyone, including hopefully the great organising team, that sophistication and musical sense goes way farther than playing to the crowds....eat your hearts out all you jukebox lovers!
