Depeche Mode - Something to Do

Track 01 from Some Great Reward.

[bassdrummer]

This is the point where DP became more abstract, sinister and darker.
What a genius band evolution of you ask me.

[jillspiekerman]

Who realizes that this is better than anything on the radio in 2022?

[leonboden]

I remember buying the vinyl back in the day .putting it on the turntable and this was first track on album .... I was a teenager and it blew me away

[jacquesievers]

Probably their best song, and they've got many!!!

[sandeepasurya]

2:27 “your pretty dress is stained…” love that transition!
The best band in the universe!

[valenx]

Some Great Reward was a flash of inspiration for me, so unique and full of unusual sounds and sonorities🎼🎼🎼 an outstanding masterpiece in a Sea of commercial pop music. 🙉

[thdarkdimension]

Some Great Reward my favourite all-time album

[gregmckinney]

2017 and i am playing this loud like it just came out today.

[NoelistAvenger]

The opening, before the lyrics kicked in, really sounded like something you'd hear from an arcade cabinet.

Like... Close your eyes, listen to the first 20 seconds, and imagine the flashing screen of an arcade game waiting for you to put some coins in.

[danielagonzalez-melladodel]

I give it 10/10. I have 11 years, but i love this song :)

[tolgatezcan]

If we go back 40 years, we would go 40 years future in music industry. Depeche Mode was always ahead of the day.

[mezzovii]

It's been 35 years since this album was released.

[depecheddurand]

Amazing song i wanna crank it up and drive fast

[BaronAnselme]

My little girl
Won't you come with me
Come with me
Tell me

Is there something to do (x4)

I'm going crazy with boredom
Come with me
Tell me

Is there something to do (x4)

Grey sky over a black town
I can feel depression
All around
You've got your leather boots on

Is there something to do (x4)

I can't stand another drink
It's surprising this town
Doesn't sink
You've got your leather boots on

Is there something to do (x4)

Your pretty dress is oil stained
From working too hard
For too little
You've got your leather boots on

Is there something to do (x4)

You're feeling the boredom too
I'd gladly go with you
I'd put your leather boots on

Is there something to do (x4)
I'd put your pretty dress on
Is there something to do (x4)

[astrangemann]

i told my friend that i needed something to do. he gave me a link to this video. and i ain't mad.

[nope]

Just the industrial rock'n'roll music.

[Ikasaswarrior]

2020 still listening to D🌹M beginning songs and still wonderful!

[offbeat]

Never understood why Black Celebration and Music For the Masses are more highly regarded albums. The writing and sonic innovation simply don't compare.

[gray]

In the album, grand ending of this song and the entrance of the next song Lie To Me is ethereal

[brandonblairmusic]

Somebody really needs to do a metal cover of this song!
