OK, DD have lost Andy Taylor and since used the skills of Timberland/Timberlake to change musical direction - since then they have collaborated with Mark Ronson for a live project - but NOW what direction would YOU DD take? Here are some suggestions (with video/audio clips to help you with the type of direction i mean in the poll descriptions). If you don't like any of these (not the songs themselves- these are just a guide to the musical style) and have another suggestion please vote for no.8 and post a clip of an artist/style/song you can imagine DD going toward (musically) if you can! I know most of you would like them to surprice you or sounnd 'like them' but this is just a query in what YOU would like them sound like NEXT! Please vote! ;D clip 1: Depeche Mode - Uselessuk.youtube.com/watch?v=6H-g5QuCI_0Clip 2: Mark Ronson ft. Daniel Merriweather Stop Me (live version) uk.youtube.com/watch?v=rsyvwNfZMtIClip 3: INXS - The Strangest Partyuk.youtube.com/watch?v=IoiCchYXOIoClip 4: New young Pony Club: Ice Creamuk.youtube.com/watch?v=1yYAOUc7YBEClip 5: Third Eye Blind: Never Let You Gouk.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4eziVQYPcMClip 6: Coldplay: Clocksuk.youtube.com/watch?v=c9j_RZDqYc4Clip 7: UnkleJam What Am I Fighting For?uk.youtube.com/watch?v=hHmZoULqk78

I went 'other' just cause I've always thought a heavy rock sound mixed with Notorious-era horns would be fantastic. Like what Aerosmith did in the late 80's. They've got a killer rhythm section between John and Roger, I've been dying to hear their heavy live stuff translate onto recordings for albums for awhile now, and they've never quite done it. Shame too. So my vote would be Rock with an Edge combined with Ronsons horns. eta sorry for the delay, work interrupted me in between my vote and the post! no video ex, sorry, again, I really should be working, lol

There's so much great DD-inspired pop out there right now...Keane...Killers...Maroon 5...I say its time for DD to take back their throne! Andy doesn't need to be the guitarist (he hasn't had a memorable hook in years anyway), but they need someone who plays/writes like him...

Didn't John mention that Dom was going to be involved in the writing process this time around??

Dom can play like Andy...but can he write like Andy?!? The original stuff I've heard sounds more like Hendrix...more bluesy...

Hi I played all the clips and I have to say that the more complete and varied musical tune I think it's the last;
some oldie 70s in the air bur mixed with funk beat, maybe DD key may give a touch of unheard 2k10 sound following these directions
Some are very interesting: the 7th and only musically the 4th
I always loved the sound of INXS and voice of Michael, but I think this direction is not so distinctive for creating dd own restylishment
nothing to say but copy u2esque clocks or depeche tune (guitar interesting, but full depechy far from dd lines)
