C/A Depeche Mode Only Fanmix.
After many days (ok, weeks) I have finished it. I cheated doing this. It is too long to fit on one CD and is not meant to be for 2 separate CDs. So I made a compromise.
You get:
10 tracks , logically assembled as one whole.
6 bonus tracks in a second playlist which fit the theme but didn't make the cut. A sort of secondary compilation.
3 "hidden" tracks exploring the darker side of the story.
To download, please comment and I'll reupload

Quick thoughts on the music:
Depeche Mode always makes me think of certain things, usually it's relationship-oriented, true, but not as a rule. One thing did stick out to me. The songs show the viewpoint of more than one person, sometimes three or four. They paint rather complicated (if obsessive, full of power-play + angst) relationships. The P.O.V. can jump around between lines or verses, sometimes merges completely. Thank you, Martin Gore, for this. Especially for putting in layers where one doesn't always expect them.
As you may notice, a lot of the list is from newer albums, which tend to be darker and more introspective. I know it's not everybody's preference but it doesn't encompass, it fits. All these songs are part of some RL thing that happened to me and perhaps that colors my interpretation a lot, I did try to switch some things around, read the lyrics, re-listened, etc.
Fan-wise, the thoughts I associate are always centered around Angel, mostly Cordy (especially for P.O.V. switching), with Darla, Buffy and other characters popping in as well. I didn't include one song (Comatose) because listening to it made me cry in indignant fury about Cordy's S4 and S5 arc...
I tried to make the "main" playlist flow like C/A and their relationship. It smoothly leads in and out with a shake-up in the middle.
The "bonus" tracks mirror a lot of the "main" tracks. This is often done by Depeche Mode, they have songs which cover different aspects of the same problem/story in different albums. If you want to burn this mix for yourself, these additional tracks can be used to fill up the 72 minutes on a CD.
The "hidden" tracks are much in the same way, only they explore the darker, more primal side of the story.
What story, you ask? It's all the bunnies that start hopping as soon as I press play on my Depeche Mode playlist.
I can only hope that you feel the same way when you play this fanmix.

Lyrics:
1. ShinePut on your blindfold
And a dress that's tight
And come with me
On a mystery night
Open your eyes
Follow our stars under a painted sky
We'll leave the world behind
We're learning to fly
We used to get by
...
I was blind and I saw the light
My angel coming
In a brilliant white
Shine for me
2. FreeloveIf you've been hiding from love
If you've been hiding from love
I can understand where you're coming from
I can understand where you're coming from
If you've suffered enough
If you've suffered enough
I can understand what you're thinking of
I can see the pain that you're frightened of
And I'm only here
To bring you free love
Let's make it clear
That this is free love
No hidden catch
No strings attached
Just free love
No hidden catch
No strings attached
Just free love
3. Dream OnPaying debt to karma
You party for a living
What you take won't kill you
But careful what you're giving
There's no time for hesitating
Pain is ready, pain is waiting
Primed to do it's educating
Unwanted, uninvited kin
It creeps beneath your crawling skin
It lives without it lives within you
Feel the fever coming
You're shaking and twitching
You can scratch all over
But that won't stop you itching
Can you feel a little love
Can you feel a little love
Dream on dream on
Blame it on your karmic curse
Oh shame upon the universe
It knows its lines
It's well rehearsed
It sucked you in, it dragged you down
To where there is no hallowed ground
Where holiness is never found
4. RushWalk with me
Open your sensitive mouth
And talk to me
Hold out your delicate hands
And feel me
Couldn't make any plans
To conceal me
Open your sensitive mouth
Hold out your delicate hands
With such a sensitive mouth
I'm easy to see through
When I come up
When I rush
I rush for you
...
I come up to meet you
Up there somewhere
When I rush to greet you
My soul is bared
Gave more for you
Dropped my crutches
And crawled on the floor for you
Went looking behind every door for you
And because of the things
That I saw for you
I spiritually grew
When I come up
When I rush
I rush for you
5. Shake The DiseaseI'm not going down on my knees
Begging you to adore me
...
Nobody knows me
As well as you do
You know how hard it is for me
To shake the disease
That takes hold of my tongue
In situations like these
Understand me
...
Now I've got things to do
And I've said before
That I know you have too
When I'm not there
In spirit I'll be there
6. StrangeloveThere'll be times
When my crimes
Will seem almost unforgivable
I give in to sin
Because you have to make this life livable
...
Strangelove
Strange highs and strange lows
Strangelove
That's how my love goes
Strangelove
Will you give it to me
Will you take the pain
I will give to you
Again and again
And will you return it
There'll be days
When I stray
I may appear to be
Constantly out of reach
I give in to sin
Because I like to practice what I preach
I'm not trying to say
I'll have it all my way
I'm always willing to learn
When you've got something to teach
And I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile
Pain will you return it
I'll say it again - pain
Pain will you return it
I won't say it again
I give in
Again and again
7. Never Let Me Down AgainI'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
He knows where he's taking me
Taking me where I want to be
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
Promises me I'm safe as houses
As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers
I hope he never lets me down again
Never let me down
See the stars, they're shining bright
Everything's alright tonight
(yep, quoted and bolded the whole song)
8. Only When I Lose MyselfIt's only when I lose myself in someone else
That I find myself
I find myself
Something beautiful is happening inside for me
Something sensual, it's full of fire and mystery
I feel hypnotised
I feel paralysed
I have found heaven
There's a thousand reasons
Why I shouldn't spend my time with you
For every reason not to be here
I can think of two
To keep me hanging on
Feeling nothing's wrong
Inside your heaven
...
I can feel the emptiness inside me
Fade and disappear
There's a feeling of contentment
Now that you are here
I feel satisfied
I belong inside
Your velvet heaven
Did I need to sell my soul for pleasure like this
Did I have to lose control to treasure your kiss
Did I need to place my heart in the palm of your hand
Before I could even start to understand
9. I Am YouYou have bound my heart with subtle chains
So much pleasure that it feels like pain
So entwined now that we can't shake free
I am you and you are me
No escaping from the mess we're in
So much pleasure that it must be sin
I must live with this reality
I am yours eternally
...
Dark obsession in the name of love
This addiction that we're both part of
Leads us deeper into mystery
Keeps us craving endlessly
Strange compulsions that I can't control
Pure possession of my heart and soul
I must live with this reality
I am you and you are me
I am you and you are me
...
There's no turning back
We're in this trap
No denying the facts
No, no, no
No excuses to give
I'm the one you're with
We've no alternative
No, no, no
10. Higher LoveI can taste more than feel
This burning inside is so real
I can almost lay my hands upon
The warm glow that lingers on
Moved, lifted higher
Moved, my soul's on fire
Moved, by a higher love
I surrender all control
To the desire that consumes me whole
And leads me by the hand to infinity
That lies in wait at the heart of me
Moved, lifted higher
Moved, my soul's on fire
Moved, by a higher love
Heaven bound on the wings of love
There's so much that you can rise above
Moved, lifted higher
Moved, moved, by a higher love
By a higher love
I surrender heart and soul
Sacrificed to a higher goal
Moved, moved by a higher love
By a higher love
(the whole song, quoted and bolded, again)
BONUS:
b1. PeaceI'm leaving bitterness
Behind this time
I'm cleaning out my mind
There is no space
For the regrets
I will remember to forget
Just look at me
I am walking love incarnate
Look at the frequencies
At which I vibrate
I'm going to light up the world
...
I'm leaving anger in the past
With all the shadows
That it cast
There is a radar in my heart
I should have trusted
From the start
...
Peace will come to me
Just wait and see
b2. NewbornNewborn
For the first time
I'm not born again
I have never lived at all
I've opened up my eyes
Now I hear the world talking
Opened up my eyes
I've just started walking
I've just started walking
I've got someone who cares for me
Someone who believes in me
I've got someone understanding me
Someone crying over me
For all the right reasons
For all the right reasons
Newborn
For the first time
I'm not born again
I have never lived at all
I've opened up my eyes
Now I hear the world talking
Opened up my eyes
I've just started walking
I've just started walking
I've got someone seeing grace in me
Someone respecting me
I've got someone who's there for me
Someone saying prayers for me
For all the right reasons
For all the right reasons
(the most Angel/Connor song I have ever heard)
b3. CleanI don't understand
What destiny's planned
I'm starting to grasp
What is in my own hands
I don't claim to know
Where my holiness goes
I just know that I like
What is starting to show
...
As years go by
All the feelings inside
Twist and they turn
As they ride with the tide
b4. SurrenderShackled like an animal
Chained to my desires
Just another sacrifice
To love's eternal fight
Tame me with your tenderness
And break my brittle heart
Easily and elegantly
Tear my world apart
I'm a man of flesh and bone
Rapture
Rushing through my veins
Passion
Flaming
In my heart
Heavenly surrender once again
Yeah
We're living in a world full of illusion
Everything is so unreal
My mind is in a state of confusion
But I can't deny the way I feel
b5. Goodnight LoversHere, somewhere in the heart of me
There is still a part of me
That cares
...
When you're born a lover
You're born to suffer
...
I'm not looking for an easy ride
True happiness cannot be tried
So easily
...
You can take your time
I'll be waiting in line
You don't even have to give me
The time of day
b6. Waiting For The NightI'm waiting for the night to fall
I know that it will save us all
When everything's dark
Keeps us from the stark reality
I'm waiting for the night to fall
When everything is bearable
And there in the still
All that you feel
Is tranquility
There is a star in the sky
Guiding my way with its light
And in the glow of the moon
Know my deliverance will come soon
There is a sound in the calm
Someone is coming to harm
I press my hands to my ears
It's easier here just to forget fear
And when I squinted
The world seemed rose-tinted
And angels appeared to descend
To my surprise
With half-closed eyes
Things looked even better
Than when they were opened
Been waiting for the night to fall
Now everything is bearable
And here in the still
All that you hear
Is tranquility
(the whole song)
HIDDEN:
h1. Martin L. Gore - Loverman (original by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds)There's a devil waiting outside your door
There's a devil waiting outside your door
It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor
And he's howling with pain and crawling up the walls
There's a devil waiting outside your door
He's weak with evil and broken by the world
He's shouting your name and he's asking for more
There's a devil waiting outside your door
Loverman!
Since the world began
Forever, Amen
Till end of time
Take off that dress
I'm coming down
I'm your loverman
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
L is for LOVE, baby
O is for ONLY you that I do
...
R is for RAPE me
M is for MURDER me
...
Loverman!
Till the bitter end
While empires burn down
Forever and ever and ever and ever
Amen I'm your loverman
So help me, baby
So help me
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
I'll be your loverman!
There's a devil crawling along your floor
There's a devil crawling along your floor
With a trembling heart, he's coming through your door
With his straining sex in his jumping paw
There's a devil crawling along your floor
And he's old and he's stupid and
he's hungry and he's sore
And he's lame and he's blind
and he's dirty and he's poor
Give him more
There's a devil crawling along your floor
...
I'll say it again
L is for LOVE, baby
O is for O yes I do
V is for VIRTUE, so I ain't gonna hurt you
E is for EVEN if you want me to
R is for RENDER unto me, baby
M is for that which is MINE
A is for ANY old how, darling
N is for ANY old time
I'll be your loverman!
I got a masterplan
To take off your dress
And be your man
Seize the throne
Seize the mantle
Seize the crown
Cause I am what I am
What I am what I am I'm your loverman!
There's a devil lying by your side
You might think he's asleep
but look at his eyes
He wants you, baby, to be his bride
There's a devil lying by your side
Loverman! Loverman!
(almost the whole song)
h2. DirtOoh, I've been dirt
And I don't care
Ooh, I've been dirt
And I don't care
...
'Cause I'm burning inside
'Cause I'm burning inside
And do you feel it
Said do you feel it when you touch me
I said do you feel it when you touch me
I'm a fire
Well there's a fire
Yeah, alright
It's just a burning inside
h3. CorruptI could corrupt you
In a heartbeat
You think you're so special
Think you're so sweet
What are you trying
Don't even tempt me
Soon you'll be crying
And wishing you'd dreamt me
You'll be calling out my name
When you need someone to blame
I could corrupt you
It would be easy
Watching you suffer
Girl, it would please me
But I wouldn't touch you
With my little finger
I know it would crush you
My memory would linger
You'd be crying out in pain
Begging me to play my games
I could corrupt you
It would be ugly
They could sedate you
But what good would drugs be
But I wouldn't touch you
Put my hands on your hips
It would be too much to
Place my lips on your lips
You'd be calling out my name
Begging me to play my games

Quick thoughts on the music:
Depeche Mode always makes me think of certain things, usually it's relationship-oriented, true, but not as a rule. One thing did stick out to me. The songs show the viewpoint of more than one person, sometimes three or four. They paint rather complicated (if obsessive, full of power-play + angst) relationships. The P.O.V. can jump around between lines or verses, sometimes merges completely. Thank you, Martin Gore, for this. Especially for putting in layers where one doesn't always expect them.
As you may notice, a lot of the list is from newer albums, which tend to be darker and more introspective. I know it's not everybody's preference but it doesn't encompass, it fits. All these songs are part of some RL thing that happened to me and perhaps that colors my interpretation a lot, I did try to switch some things around, read the lyrics, re-listened, etc.
Fan-wise, the thoughts I associate are always centered around Angel, mostly Cordy (especially for P.O.V. switching), with Darla, Buffy and other characters popping in as well. I didn't include one song (Comatose) because listening to it made me cry in indignant fury about Cordy's S4 and S5 arc...
I tried to make the "main" playlist flow like C/A and their relationship. It smoothly leads in and out with a shake-up in the middle.
The "bonus" tracks mirror a lot of the "main" tracks. This is often done by Depeche Mode, they have songs which cover different aspects of the same problem/story in different albums. If you want to burn this mix for yourself, these additional tracks can be used to fill up the 72 minutes on a CD.
The "hidden" tracks are much in the same way, only they explore the darker, more primal side of the story.
What story, you ask? It's all the bunnies that start hopping as soon as I press play on my Depeche Mode playlist.
I can only hope that you feel the same way when you play this fanmix.

So help me
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
I'll be your loverman!
There's a devil crawling along your floor
There's a devil crawling along your floor
With a trembling heart, he's coming through your door
With his straining sex in his jumping paw
There's a devil crawling along your floor
And he's old and he's stupid and
he's hungry and he's sore
And he's lame and he's blind
and he's dirty and he's poor
Give him more
There's a devil crawling along your floor
...
I'll say it again
L is for LOVE, baby
O is for O yes I do
V is for VIRTUE, so I ain't gonna hurt you
E is for EVEN if you want me to
R is for RENDER unto me, baby
M is for that which is MINE
A is for ANY old how, darling
N is for ANY old time
I'll be your loverman!
I got a masterplan
To take off your dress
And be your man
Seize the throne
Seize the mantle
Seize the crown
Cause I am what I am
What I am what I am I'm your loverman!
There's a devil lying by your side
You might think he's asleep
but look at his eyes
He wants you, baby, to be his bride
There's a devil lying by your side
Loverman! Loverman!
(almost the whole song)
h2. DirtOoh, I've been dirt
And I don't care
Ooh, I've been dirt
And I don't care
...
'Cause I'm burning inside
'Cause I'm burning inside
And do you feel it
Said do you feel it when you touch me
I said do you feel it when you touch me
I'm a fire
Well there's a fire
Yeah, alright
It's just a burning inside
h3. CorruptI could corrupt you
In a heartbeat
You think you're so special
Think you're so sweet
What are you trying
Don't even tempt me
Soon you'll be crying
And wishing you'd dreamt me
You'll be calling out my name
When you need someone to blame
I could corrupt you
It would be easy
Watching you suffer
Girl, it would please me
But I wouldn't touch you
With my little finger
I know it would crush you
My memory would linger
You'd be crying out in pain
Begging me to play my games
I could corrupt you
It would be ugly
They could sedate you
But what good would drugs be
But I wouldn't touch you
Put my hands on your hips
It would be too much to
Place my lips on your lips
You'd be calling out my name
Begging me to play my games
(the whole song)
