Oh man, Depeche Mode is the epitome of mood music. This is too sad.

OMG. Given the amount of Depeche Mode I've been listening to as of late...this is too much.

Same. Violator was my introduction to them. “Enjoy the Silence” has been my signature karaoke song for 20 years. I had such a crush on Dave Gahan.

 

I’ll have to revisit that. I didn’t keep up with them really after Gahan started spiraling in the ‘90s. (Actually stunning that he survived that era.)

Awww you are welcome.

I cannot even articulate how listening to the music has helped me come into who I am. Halo alone...I couldn't even stay in, I had to go out to mourn.

 

There is an 80s event here on Sunday where they ususally play Depeche Mode so I know I will be out to mourn with dancing. 

“I loved the soap,” he said in a 1994 interview. “I had an opportunity to make dialogue that wasn’t good seem bearable. The acting challenge was greater than if I was doing Tennessee Williams.”

Bo Hopkins -- famous from "American Graffiti" and other '70s cult classic films -- has died. - TMZ

I always think it is interesting to see the credits they use when an actor dies.  Do you really think he was better known from American Graffiti than Dynasty?  Graffiti was a relatively small film, while he reappeared on the season finale of Dynasty, even though the show was in the waning years of the 7th season, it was watched by 17.1 million households.

She was also in the soap "Eldorado", one of the biggest flops in the long history of the BBC.
