The songs are on the 81-04 remix cd

"Unless you want to collect all the "enjoy the silence" singles, it's not worth it. I have about 80 or so cds of different Depeche Mode singles, tribute albums, and regular cds. So unless you're a die hard Depeche Mode fan. And want to collect every cd. It's not worth it since both songs are already on the remixes 81-04 cd."
Title track is great but...

"The remix on this single of "Enjoy the Silence" is absolutely brilliant. It's current, danceable, punchy, and coherent. It stands up well to the standard set by the original song. But the reason this single gets 4 stars and not five is the b-side, Goldfrapp's remix of "Halo". It starts off wonderfully and has immense potential, but the high-pitched chorus destroys the dark tone of the song and puts it more into the territory of lounge singing. As both of these songs are on disc 3 of the 3-disc edition of "Remixes 81-04", you may want to skip this unless you are a completist."
Annoy the silence

"I have the 5 track CD Single which includes the Timo Maas Remix. The original 1990 remixes (Hands & Feet mix, Rikitiktik mix, etc) were exceptional. This 2004 rehash is just plain poor. In some cases a total stripping down and reworking of a song can work wonders for it and create a new audience for the artist as well some more cash for the record company but not in this case. The beauty of the song was the opening guitar hook which is almost absent here. Some things are better left untouched and that hook is one of them. This is still one of my favourite songs but I'd rather listen to the original mixes than these poor second cousins!
Buy this only if you want to complete your DM collection!"
