See you - Depeche Mode

After Vince Clarke left Depeche Mode, the remaining members were left to their own devices. Martin Gore stepped up and wrote the first post-Clarke single, 'See you'. It was still a rather innocent love song, showing once again how much has changed since then. If he would have written this song now, it would have been the point of view of a stalker, or something.

'See you' became the band's biggest hit up to that point, reaching number 6 in the UK singles chart, which was higher than all three previously released singles.

My collection: 7" single no. 746
Found: Disco Market, Den Haag, 1987
Cost: 2 guilders
Tracks: 'See you' / 'Now this is fun'
