Dave Gahan Quotes

Presence of God’ is really that understanding that sometimes when you step out of your own shoes and just open your ears and listen to what’s going on around you, you get answers to the questions you were asking Picture Quote #1

I had a few brushes with death, where I nearly chose to go. The final one in 1996 did it for me. I suddenly had that feeling that I wasn’t indestructible. There was no big white light experience, I just felt this complete blackness and a huge voice inside me saying, ‘This is not right.’ Picture Quote #1

I really believe that the more distractions and fixes I remove from my life, the better I’ll feel about myself. The biggest of those is Depeche Mode. It’s the one marriage that survived, but I’m not sure it works - for me, anyway. Jumping on a plane to go somewhere else and be told how wonderful I am doesn’t feel good any more Picture Quote #1

Making a record with ‘Depeche Mode’ is not a simple process. It’s quite complicated and long. We have the luxury of time. I’m not sure that’s such a good thing when you’re being creative Picture Quote #1

Music is still the one thing that ties people together. People can come together from all different religions, walks of life, colours, creeds and enjoy the same song. That’s still the most incredible thing to me about performing live Picture Quote #1

Depeche Mode have never got over their teenage awkwardness with each other. We’re still like that. Mates but not mates. That awkwardness is there, only now we have families and kids Picture Quote #1

When I was growing up in the early 70s and really getting into music, waiting outside the record store for that 45, waiting for a single from The Dead, The Clash, David Bowie, or T-Rex or something to be there. There was something about that that was so special Picture Quote #1

I definitely have a dark side of me that can be pretty vicious... as we all do Picture Quote #1

To me, it’s always been a challenge to look for the light: to look for those spaces in your heart where there is hope and faith and try to embrace that rather than crush it. I’ve spent so many years trying to crush those feelings of hope, and I certainly succeeded for quite a while Picture Quote #1

I often find myself on my knees praying to something or someone to not be in control Picture Quote #1

There’s that side of me that wants to be the loving, caring father, and there’s the other side of me that’s just a dirty animal. If I don’t let that out, I go nuts Picture Quote #1

There isn’t an amount of money you could offer me to do reality TV. I would rather get my job back on the building site. Or I could own a construction business. Maybe I could retire to my house in Long Island and take up painting, like Captain Beefheart. A crazy recluse: I like that idea Picture Quote #1

If you stick around long enough, you’re going to become fashionable eventually Picture Quote #1

To go on the road and see people sing my own lyrics back to me is just fantastic Picture Quote #1

If you ask me who the members of the Rolling Stones or Led Zep or the Clash were, I’d be able to tell you every member. But I couldn’t name a single member of Arctic Monkeys Picture Quote #1

The possibilities are endless now, with performing, getting your music online, getting your own website and getting your music out there. I think that’s very cool and amazing Picture Quote #1

L.A. is always great. There’s something special about L.A. And New York, for me, because it’s home. There’s nothing quite like walking onstage at Madison Square Garden Picture Quote #1

Joy comes from places you least expect it. Its usually the simple things, like watching my son play basketball or going through Central Park when the blossoms are blooming Picture Quote #1

I have to feel the audience. I enjoy that feeling of community. There’s something sort of spiritual about it in a lot of ways. It’s like we’re all doing this together Picture Quote #1

I go to a very visual place when I’m singing. It’s very cinematic and I get this feeling of space. I love when music does that Picture Quote #1

You’re only going to get surface with me. It takes me ages to warm up to people Picture Quote #1

I have the urge to still be part of the world, the universe, of life. Through music I have the feeling that I come a little closer to that Picture Quote #1

Music is still the one thing that ties people together. People can come together from all different religions, walks of life, colours, creeds and enjoy the same song. That’s still the most incredible thing to me about performing live Picture Quote #1

I still hold on to the idea that a record can really change the way I feel Picture Quote #1
