Some Great Videos is the first music video compilation by Depeche Mode, featuring ten music videos directed by Clive Richardson or Peter Care, released on 14 October 1985. ^[2] It coincides with The Singles 81→85.

There are ten videos in the original version, the first video "Just Can't Get Enough", and all videos from "Everything Counts" in 1983 to "It's Called a Heart" in 1985. There's also a bonus live video of "Photographic", and the US release includes the video to "A Question of Lust".

To coincide with the re-release of The Singles 81→85 (1998), Some Great Videos was re-released as Some Great Videos 81>85. The track list is the same as the original UK version, but the artwork is all from the re-released The Singles 81→85.

The album does not feature any of the Julien Temple videos for the A Broken Frame singles, " See You", " The Meaning of Love" and " Leave in Silence", due to the band's distaste for them.

• Re-issued as Some Great Videos 81>85 to coincide with the release of The Videos 86>98. Contains the same track listing as the 1985 release.

• All songs were written by Martin Gore, except for "Just Can't Get Enough" and "Photographic" written by Vince Clarke.
• Track 4 is the "Different Mix" of the song, although it is written as "People Are People (12" version)" on the artwork.
• Though a video for the single version of "People Are People" was made, the label decided to use the "Different Mix" of the video. The original video was never released on a public video until the DVD The Best of Depeche Mode Volume 1 in 2006.
• "Photographic" is taken from the video The World We Live In and Live in Hamburg, released in the same year.
• All videos were directed by Clive Richardson, except for "Shake the Disease" and "It's Called a Heart" directed by Peter Care.
• None of the videos by Julien Temple were included in the compilation. Alan Wilder once commented on the videos, when asked about them on his website:

"You can pretty much lump all the Julian Temple videos (" See You", " The Meaning of Love", and " Leave in Silence") into one collective disaster."

• Though " Get the Balance Right!" was directed by Kevin Hewitt, it was not included either as it was not very well liked by the band.
