The copyright system of Youtube... exists. The rights of artists must obviously be cared for but Youtube's system sucks SO BAD. This is my SIXTH upload attempt. Urgh.

I personally can not understand why a publisher/record label would block videos that are not monetized? They would get money by way of royalties, and exposure for their artists - different kinds of remixes attract new audiences... Well, it is what it is I guess.

What a kick in the balls. I worked my ass off wanting to do justice to these amazing songs just to have the video totally blocked on Youtube. So I'll try this way... I wonder how so many others manage to upload various versions of "Precious" without any problems..? Well, anyway, let's try this. Rant over. ;D

This is something prec--- well, special. =D

I've always kinda liked "Precious" but for some reason the song just never really clicked, you know? It's a brilliant little pop song but... You know. BUT in the process of making this mash-up I ended up LOVING it. The vocal arrangement with Dave's silky, magical voice... Perfection.

And of course "Black Celebration" is one of those songs for me, forever transforming my taste in music and affecting me deeply as a young person.

So making this mash-up was something truly special and I also wanted to make the video special so it took - a - lot - of - time. But I think the (ORIGINAL) video is equally both hilarious and beautiful, so not a bad way to spend two days.

Obviously the video contains awesome art by Anton Corbijn and Uwe Flade. Respect!

Also I have to say I initially kind of hated the music video for "Precious". Stupid glowing alien fish... And also the visuals imo were just somehow "not" Depeche. But I found I also had found a new appreciation for the ethereal visuals although I still don't think the video is worthy of the song. But maybe that's just me.

Anyways - hope you love this mash-up! More to come...
