Depeche Mode were recently approached by the U2 camp to contribute a track to an upcoming U2 covers collection, supposedly accompanying a re-issue of “Achtung Baby”. And so it was that Depeche Mode ended up recorded their version of U2′s “So Cruel”. The track, recorded in Santa Barbara and New York is produced by Depeche Mode’s very own Martin Gore, with lead vocals by Dave Gahan. Sie Medway Smith was on hand with engineering and mixing.

Oh God, I so want to hear it. Two of my favorite bands evah <3

I'M READY. Depeche Mode are just as good as U2 imo. I don't know if they're good at covering people though. But damn, they're a great band soo this has real potential.

I am not a big DM fan so I am kind of on your side, Ronnie. However, I do like "Somebody" and if they bring that feel to their version of "So Cruel" it might turn out okay.

i also like something by them, nothing that drives me crazy tough .. but i just can't bear U2 songs played/rearranged by some others .. i could only by very very few. and even more if they are songs from Achtung
as i said time ago .. only Bono can sing what Bono sang for example.
i hope that this kind of stuff is part of a project outside of the Achtung box .. sort of a tribute cd .. so that i can stay away from it hehe

I had goosebumps when a 2011-version of them filled up the trabant while Bono says "Achtung Baby was the reason we're still here now"... Oh well, in fact I had goosebumps throughout most of the trailer , what a great documentary it's going to be.

"It's alright, it's alright, it's alriiiiiiiiight" "It's not alright in fact..."

That trailer is amazing, I hope the documentary will be as awesome as this is.
