I've started the Vinyl series because I have a collection of over 20,000 vinyl record albums I am
selling; each blog entry is about an album from my collection. Inquire

One of my all-time favorite pop tunes is, Just Can't Get Enough, by Depeche Mode. It
was a bouncy, happy little tune that just made you feel good and it was
TERRIFIC for dancing at the discos where they played this, the extended
version (6 minutes and 41 seconds), which
seemed to go on FOREVER; which was not a problem. The radio version is 3
minutes and 41 seconds. There is a music video of the song on YouTube (link below); watching it now, they look like babies.
The line-up for this song consisted of Dave Gahan (lead vocals, occasional songwriter since 2005), Martin Gore (keyboards, guitar, vocals, chief songwriter after 1981), Andy Fletcher (keyboards) and Vince Clarke (keyboards, chief songwriter from 1980 until 1981.

Can't Get Enough was recorded during the summer of that 1981 at Blackwing Studios, and was the band's first single to be released in the United States, on 18 February 1982. A riff-driven synthpop song, it was the final single to be written by founding member Vince Clarke, who left the band in November 1981.
The 12" single featured a "Schizo Mix", which is an extended version
with additional synth parts that added a sinister feel to the track.

The Just Can't Get Enough single reached number 8 on the UK Singles Chart and number 26 on the US Hot Dance Club Play
chart, making it their highest-charting single at the time on both
counts. It also became the band's first (and biggest) hit in Australia,
reaching number 4.
