Overview
Iconic frontman of Depeche Mode & accomplished solo artist, Dave Gahan makes a dynamic return on January 14th with the new double-A side single 'Saw Something/Deeper & Deeper'.
A triumph of cutting-edge electronica, it's the second release from the smash-hit solo LP 'Hourglass', which debuted in the Top 10 across Swizterland, France, Italy and Germany, where it reached Number 2.
Written, performed and produced by Dave Gahan, Christian Eigner & Andrew Phillpott - both members of the Depeche Mode touring band – the single boasts two of the album's most immaculate moments back to back. Eerily beautiful and gospel-tinged, 'Saw Something' soars with haunting vocals, while 'Deeper & Deeper' pounds with a raw, urgent, synth-led heart.
"For me 'Saw Something' is a starting point for something new in my life," says Gahan. "The lyrics are about sitting, waiting for something to come- some kind of answer."
"As for 'Deeper & Deeper', I had to stand three feet from the mic when recording it—I was just screaming it out. It's very animalistic."
