Wow, I just had to share this with the DM world and give an open apology from this American fan. Sorry everyone.
So Horse, Horse, Tiger, Tiger is a band of American college students living in Beijing and they have launched a song to celebrate the Beijing Olympic Games countdown. That song? "Just Can't Get Enough"! Again, all I can say is sorry.

Today marks the 20th anniversary of the legendary Rose Bowl gig in Pasadena, CA. As we all reflect on this monumental Depeche Mode landmark, let's also look forward to a bright future!
As I sit here and write down my thoughts on this milestone in DM history I find myself conflicted between the sappy notion of their uphill battle for respect to the idea that they are still around, relevant, and in the studio recording a new record now.
