During that same session, Depeche Mode also covered the Gordon Lightfoot classic “Sundown.” In the interview portion of the show, Dave Gahan said that the late Mark Lanegan used to send him playlists of songs that he wanted to hear Gahan cover, and one of those songs was “Sundown.” That’s a great song, and it’s weirdly perfect for an orchestral Depeche Mode cover

I think Lanegan opened for DM… and Dave was the singer of Soulsavers after Lanegan gave up; so yeah I’m sure they had some kind of relation on those years

I just finished Sing Backwards And Weep.
I have read other addict memoirs and I am very skeptical about a lot of the content because if someone is so often high, blacked out, etc. how can they possibly remember all these details, conversations, etc.?

just because a person gets high or has black outs doesn't mean the full extent of his or her memory is completely gone.
Did I actually have to say that?
I read it too and I 100% believe what he wrote. What good would it do him to make up stories ? That doesn't make sense

More headlines and publicity, more book sales and people coming to the gigs which all means more money. And of course there's also the branding aspect.

Generally accurate, sure. Details accurate? Meh.
Writers often write often. He could have been getting his content from 100s of journals.

He actually mentioned in interviews he wrote the whole book from memory and occasionally would call the people involved in the memories to confirm.
