To appreciate a song only for its tune is superficial, while to appreciate a song only for its words is to miss the music. A matter of both form and substance. (written and produced by Roland Brown; directed by Ross Hallard and Phil Michael Lane) Depeche Mode: 1985-1986 Black Celebration “The songs aren’t good enough, there aren’t any singles and it’ll never get played on the radio” (57:41) is Martin paraphrasing Daniel Miller about his demos for Black Celebration in the film.
