Day 7: The World in Bob’s Eyes

Day Seven of the  30-day Depeche Mode challenge – Your favorite cover of a Depeche Mode song

“World in my Eyes” by The Cure is probably the Depeche Mode cover that I listen to most frequently. With this cover, The Cure successfully built on a strong foundation (WIME is one of my favorites) without destroying the integrity of the original. It’s suitably creepier and grittier than the original, however, as Robert Smith’s vocals The Cure’s signature sound amplifies an already devious atmosphere. Love it!

Honorable mention: Scott Weiland’s “But Not Tonight”
