I'm not sure but it might be the case)... Prince also started in 1978, right?
Is there a Depeche Mode presence that I'm not aware of? Umm, yeah!... DM's first big hit was in 1980 but they started making music 1977. They've had continued success since then which has only increased with time. You need to get some perspective beyond th US. Where I live no one knows P's done anything since Emancipation... . ----- Once again where the hell do you live he has a CD that is on the charts now.  | |

Where I live no one knows P's done anything since Emancipation... . true, my perspective is of course US because of where I was born and live. Over here no one knows about Lovesexy, it was a huge failure in the U.S. My art book: http://www.lulu.com/spotl...ecomicskid

Over here no one knows about Lovesexy, it was a huge failure in the U.S. Yep, it's all about perspective. 3121 got quite a bit of exposure over here and there was a little bit of press about PE with the Daily Mail and O2, but it got zero airplay, as far as I know. Depeche Mode's new song is all over the radio, but then again they were just here, so, you know... "We've never been able to pull off a funk number"
