JEtat lassen wir mal einen „Jungspund“ hochleben: Depeche-Mode-Sänger Dave Gahan ist am 9. Mai 60 Jahre alt geworden. Der Engländer gehörte 1980 zur Gründungsbesetzung der Synthie-Pop-Gruppe und ist heute noch mit dabei. Zwischenzeitlich hatte er Alkohol-und Drogenexzesse zu überstehen. Nach einer Überdosis war Gahan auch schonmal für zwei Minuten klinisch tot. Mit Depeche Mode wurde Gahan zur Speerspitze eines Genres, das mit seinen Auswüchsen bis heute Bestand hat.
After today's congratulations for artists who left their mark in the 60s and early 70s, we're now celebrating a "youngster": Depeche Mode singer Dave Gahan turns 60 on May 9. The Englishman was part of the founding line-up of the Synth-Pop group in 1980 and is still with them today. In the meantime he had to survive alcohol and drug excesses. After an overdose, Gahan was clinically dead for two minutes. With Depeche Mode, Gahan became the spearhead of a genre that has endured with its sub-genres to this day.
