Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence 04 (Official Music Video) Martin L Gore-Dave Gahan-Alan Wilder-Andrew Fletcher, (www.depechemode.com) Enjoy the Silence is Depeche Mode's twenty-fourth UK single, released on January 16, 1990, and the second single from the then upcoming album Violator. Enjoy the Silence was re-released as a single in 2004 for the Depeche Mode remix project Remixes 81 - 04, and was titled Enjoy the Silence (Reinterpreted) or, more simply, Enjoy the Silence 04. The Reinterpreted version was remixed by Mike Shinoda, the rapper and producer for the American nu metalalternative rock band Linkin Park. As it is one of Depeche Mode's most well-known songs to date, it has been recorded as a cover version by many other artists, including Breaking Benjamin, Keane, Tori Amos, Lacuna Coil, Entwine, Failure, It Dies Today, Tanghetto, The Academy Is... with Cobra Starship, Anberlin, HIM, Matthew Good, Bell X1, Apoptygma Berzerk, and No Use for a Name. Mike Shinoda's Enjoy The Silence 04 was a distortion guitar-driven version of the song, in which he imprinted Linkin Park's distinctive nu metal sound. Uwe Flade directed an animated music video for Enjoy the Silence 04. Monitors in the animation show performances of Enjoy the Silence excerpted from Devotional and One Night in Paris, as well as footage from a concert from The Singles Tour filmed in Cologne in 1998 for MTV. ENJOY THE SILENCE-LYRICS~ Words like violence Break the silence Come crashing in Into my little world Painful to me Pierce right through me Cant you understand Oh my little girl All I ever wanted All I ever needed Is here in my arms Words are very unnecessary They can only do harm Vows are spoken To be broken Feelings are intense Words are trivial Pleasures remain So does the pain Words are meaningless And forgettable All I ever wanted All I ever needed Is here in my arms Words are very unnecessary They can only do harm Enjoy the silence (Written by Martin Lee Gore) When Enjoy the Silence was written, it was intended to be a slow-paced ballad in C minor; the demo featured a harmonium with Gore singing. Alan Wilder saw hit potential in the track, and composed an upbeat tempo and structure for the song. Despite initial resistance from songwriter Gore, who felt the spirit of the song was not suited to an upbeat track, the rest of the group liked it. After some self-described sulking, Gore came around and added more to the embryonic fast version together with producer Mark Flood Ellis, notably the guitar riff heard throughout. Depeche Mode lead singer David Gahan contributed his distinctive lead vocals to the track and within hours the band was convinced they had a hit single on their hands. At Gore's insistence, the demo would later be remade into the Harmonium version (available on the limited edition 12 vinyl and Maxi CD releases), featuring Martin Gore on vocals. Enjoy the Silence became one of the band's most successful singles, and its highest-charting since the early '80s. The single rocketed up the UK Singles Chart to #6, remaining there for three weeks. This was the band's highest-charting single since People Are People peaked at #4 in 1984. Additionally, other than People Are People, only two other singles released by the band had reached as high as #6: 1982's See You and 1983's Everything Counts. On top of this, the song reached #8 on the US Billboard Hot 100, to date the only Depeche Mode single to achieve top 10 status. At the time, the only other Depeche Mode single to hit the US Top 20 was People Are People, which hit #13. The single also topped the US Modern Rock Tracks chart, another first for the band (as this chart had been created in 1988). The chart measures radio airplay on US modern rock stations. Enjoy the Silence 04 was almost equally successful in the UK, peaking at #7 on the UK Singles Chart. In the US, it reached #25 on the Billboard Hot Dance MusicClub Play. In addition, the limited edition vinyl releases also charted, but due to the fact that their lead track was not Enjoy the Silence, these releases charted separately. As a result, Something to Do, the A-side to the L12 release, spent one week at #75 on the UK Singles Chart.
