Precious

Depeche Mode

Precious works as a steady pop selection rather than an automatic party anthem. It is more likely to land with people who already know Depeche Mode. Treat it as a performance piece, not a guaranteed group singalong.

Useful detail

Performance tip

Precious will land more clearly if you use the short lines deliberately; clean releases will keep them from sounding disconnected. Rehearse that transition in Precious before worrying about stage movement.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

Precious is worth singing if a lived-in, first-person delivery comes naturally to you. Expect some repeated lines to anchor the arrangement and room to shape the lines without cramming them. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
