Depeche Mode ''I Feel You'' was played during memorial service

Waldemar Milewicz was a Polish journalist and war correspondent. The Polish TV crew's car was returning to the Polish base camp at Najaf from an interview with insurgents in Baghdad (Iraq)) on May 7, 2004. Travelling in a clearly marked press vehicle, they were followed by a group of armed men in another car. About 30 kilometres south of Baghdad, the attackers caught up with them and opened fire from behind, riddling the journalists' car with bullets. Milewicz was hit first and died instantly.

He was a fan of Depeche Mode. According to his last will, their song I Feel You was played during his memorial service.

1984-06-02 Suedwest Stadium, Ludwigshafen, Germany. Depeche Mode were Elton John support act.

Martin Gore commented on meeting Elton John during this day 

"He said that he thought our productions were simply great, and that the same goes for our compositions. It really made me blush. Maybe that is what [the song 'Somebody'] is - some kind of tribute to Elton John. But, man, you really don't have to write that down..." 

Elton also recalled on his podcast

"I did a concert once in Ludwigshafen at the football stadium to 40,000 people on a very sunny day, and there were three people on the bill. It was Joan Baez, with an acoustic guitar, Depeche Mode at their finest, and me, and it was just an eclectic bill, and everyone went down so well, I'll never forget it. And that’s the first time I'd seen Depeche Mode live and they were amazing."
