    I love the fact ONLY Dave and Alan are here. Alan is absolutely incredible and so intelligent and talented. His talent really lifted Depeche Mode to the next level. To the stratosphere.
  • The good old days when you turned on MTV after school and you actually saw artists that mattered who played music that had substance. David Gahan and Alan Wilder were and still are my favorite members of Depeche Mode. Thank you for posting this 🖤🖤🖤

    Their golden age. Guys I'm sorry but Depeche Mode has felt and will always feel incomplete without Alan Wilder. I'm a late 90s kid btw

    Alan Wilder embodies Depeche Mode. He is a talent. He has the look. I mean he just fits in every way. Alan will forever be considered as part of the Depeche Mode family. I am glad DM is in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame and Alan is in it, too.

    The interviewer asks good questions and does not interrupt them, she lets them talk. (We love you Alan, please come back). ❤💘💥xxxx
  • Martin, Dave & Alan coming together again, a girl can dream...

    Props to the camera guy for walking backwards throughout the interview and keeping the subjects in frame.
  • David Gahan was the only one who felt some respect and appreciation for Alan Wilder
  • I like that they are walking around for this interview, it has character and isn't in some sterile studio. Not to mention they are walking in areas where they would collect sounds, and you can actually hear the types of things they would record.
  • Going down a DM rabbit hole this weekend after Andy's death. This is one of the loveliest things I've seen so far, thanks for posting.

    To me the band ended when Alan left so to watch this interview is a great reminder of just how cool they were, also shot near Alan's manor!!

    Alan's style is so iconic! It's always a joy to see old interviews with him. Miss him terribly! 🖤❤️

    Construction Time Again sounds in the background XD
  • Despite the time of this interview they were already on front of music industry and still ordinary people, I m very impress how mature and fluence are in opinions, and how good analyse what rounds them. Today artists seems to be far from that normality and hard to get for a simple city-walk interview.
