BLACK CELEBRATION (1986)

Black Celebration est le cinquième album studio du groupe anglais Depeche Mode, sorti en 1986.

Plus sombre que les précédents, comme le suggère d’ailleurs la couleur noire de la pochette, il ne contient pas de grands succès contrairement à l’album studio précédent Some Great Reward, même si les singles A Question of Time, A Question of lust  et Stripped se vendent relativement bien.

Martin L. Gore signe ici tous les titres. Le nom de l’album est tiré de la chanson éponyme, qui ouvre l’album. C’est le seul album de Depeche Mode dont le titre est celui d’une de ses chansons. (Source : Wikipedia)

LES SINGLES

STRIPPED

PAROLES

Come with me
Into the trees
We’ll lay on the grass
And let the hours pass
Take my hand
Come back to the land
Let’s get away
Just for one day
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone
Metropolis
Has nothing on this
You’re breathing in fumes
I taste when we kiss
Take my hand
Come back to the land
Where everything’s ours
For a few hours
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone
Let me hear you
Make decisions
Without your television
Let me hear you speaking
Just for me
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone
Let me hear you speaking
Just for me
Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone Let me hear you crying
Just for me
A QUESTION OF LUST

PAROLES

Fragile
Like a baby in your arms
Be gentle with me
I’d never willingly
Do you harm
Apologies
Are all you seem to get from me
But just like a child
You make me smile
When you care for me
And you know
It’s a question of lust
It’s a question of trust
It’s a question of not letting
What we’ve built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
Independence
Is still important for us though (we realise)
It’s easy to make
The stupid mistake
Of letting go (do you know what I mean)
My weaknesses
You know each and every one (it frightens me)
But I need to drink
More than you seem to think
Before I’m anyone’s
And you know
It’s a question of lust
It’s a question of trust
It’s a question of not letting
What we’ve built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
Kiss me goodbye
When I’m on my own
But you know that I’d
Rather be home
It’s a question of lust
A QUESTION OF TIME

PAROLES

I’ve got to get to you first
Before they do
It’s just a question of time Before they lay their hands on you
And make you just like the rest
Ive got to get to you first
It’s just a question of time
Well now you’re only fifteen
And you look good
I’ll take you under my wing
Somebody should
They’ve persuasive ways
And you believe wath they say
It’s just a question of time
It’s running out for you
It won’t be long
Until you’ll do
Exactly what they want you to
I can see them now
Hanging around
To mess you up
To strip you down
And have their fun
With my little one
It’s just a question of time
It’s running out fou you
I won’t be long
Exactly what they want you to
It won’t be long
Until you’ll do
Exactly what they want you to
Sometimes i don’t blame them
For wanting you
You look good
And they need something to do
Until i look at you
And then i condemn them
I know my kind
What goes on in our minds
It’s just a question of time
It should be better
It’s just a question of time
It’s schould be better with you
It’s just a question of time
