In reading the answers on PSB Online, the following post caught my 
attention:

Question 172:

The last one, at least for today... I always had a doubt about a song, 
the dub version from Was it worth it... In the middle we can here a mix 
betwen your song and an extract from Personal Jesus. My best friend is 
a Depeche mode fan and at those times, we use to dream Depeche Mode and 
Pet Shop Boys making something together (delusions, we could say 
nowadays). In a way, that dream became truth when I got the WIWI single 
and we heard that version.  Where did it come the idea of taking Mr 
Gore Brathing, and also the rhythm percussion, and put it into your 
song??? Have you ever heard the DM members opinion about that 
version??? It sounds great for us, you should try something like that 
again!!!!

Answer:

We've never sampled "Personal Jesus". Maybe you have a bootleg? Or 
maybe it was just a coincidence. I haven't heard this mix for years, to 
be honest. N


Neil is correct in that the PSB never sampled DM, but Creative Thieves 
(Dave Seaman of Brothers in Rhythm Fame and Phil Kelsey who did several 
DMC mixes) did the mix and it is CLEAR that they sampled Depeche Mode.  
What is funny is that Neil thinks it's a bootleg or coincidence!  HAHA! 
  Silly Neil, learn your mixes better!

Just an observation...
