“ Not only the best photo for me, it’s also the best dM moment. Sang “with” Dave in the end of Freelove. Instead of going “aahhh Freelove” I started to sing the chorus and most part of the audience joined in. #DMheaven #HomeMode”

“My absolute fave pic of Fletch…took it myself as I met the guys in Copenhagen in 1990, hot the pic enlarged and brought it to Copenhagen Airport in 1993 as the band arrived and got it autographed…. #DMHeaven #homemode”

Unfortunately I too find Heaven slightly boring (even though it unexpectedly came into my mind this morning when I thought I had forgotten it after only two listens...). As in SOTU, again Hillier' s production seems to be missing, the "organic" sound the boys care so much about is not filled in, made grand and pulsating by electronics as in Personal Jesus or I Feel You, and even Flood' s intervention seems not to do much (maybe just an acceleration would have done the trick, which according to the records is what made Enjoy the Silence the masterpiece it is). If the whole album is like that it will be more of a Soulsavers than a Violator or SOFAD or PTA... Oh dear. This said, I always respect the artists' choices.
