David Gahan’s interpretation of Martin Gore’s lyrics have always had a knack for tapping into that melancholy part of me, making me find joy in sadness.

It is the incredible way in which life and soul have been created in the making of Kong that is the enabling force behind Peter Jackson’s vision of the classic. We are given a glimpse of an almost human and undeniably beautiful being in Kong, and in that vision we are privy to the ultimate tragedy that is his death.

I’m ashamed to say that I didn’t think to do it first. It’s a terrible feeling, when a good friend extends something so gracious and flattering as this before you yourself have a chance to do it.  I’m truly honored to be held in such esteem by someone whom I, honestly, respect and admire so deeply.
