FORMED: 1978, Liverpool, England Liverpool's music scene in the late 1970's was an exciting and dynamic place to be. Everyone was either in a band, in-between bands or were forming a band. In the midst of all this activity was Eric's Club - a small discreet venue that was a favoured haunt for the people who would later form bands such as The Teardrop Explodes, Echo & The Bunnymen and Frankie Goes To Hollywood. So it was quite apt that Eric's was the venue of choice for the debut performance of Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark in October 1978. Founder members Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys had originally been inspired by the experimental electronic music of German bands such as Kraftwerk and Neu.

(Submit New OMD Lyrics) (Submit New OMD Lyrics) Review about OMD best OMD track | Reviewer: john jarzynski ------ About the song Joan of Arc (Maid of Orleans) performed by OMD joan of arc's army marching along,carrying you on the synthesiser beats and drum rolls,majestically,triumphantly but its your heart that wants her love that she seems to give so freely. at the end of the song she rides away and you have felt her love:strong,noble,humble,self-giving,sacrificial. beautiful song. takes me back to the fun and innocent 1980's | Reviewer: Duane B ------ About the song If You Leave performed by OMD Every time I hear this song it takes me back to the 1980's and having crushes on guys in my class and Molly Ringwald movies such as Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, and the Breakfast Club. I love this song, one the the best songs of that time in my opinion. What did you expect it was about? | Reviewer: Max ------ About the song Enola Gay performed by OMD It is absolutely incredible how unaware are the young generations about what the Second World War meant for the whole human kind. But the most unthinkible is that anyboy on this planet does not know about what happened over Nagasaki(Aug/9th/11am,1945) and Hiroshima(Aug.6/8.15am,1945). The bombings (I do not kwow if it is the most proper word) murdered and erased off the world near one quarter million people in just a few seconds. I think these bombings must be known by the common people all over the world, and especially those countries who have an atomic arsenal. From the dawn of mankind, every weapon has been created "to defend" us from "the other ones" and afterwards used to kill "the other ones". Is it sensible to think that atomic weapons will be, sonner or later, used for different goals?.NO NUKES! There is no path to peace.Peace itself is the path. Mohandas Gandhi (1869-1948) Resignation - a must do - not a want to do | Reviewer: Luigi ------ About the song If You Leave performed by OMD I'm going through this situation right now, I have to quit seeing this married person because this person is not for me; there's no winning for me here. However I'd love to have "one more time then we'll go our separate ways"; very nice song for this ocasion... ;-) inevitable | Reviewer: Thor Ironton ------ About the song If You Leave performed by OMD A song of desperation, and a song of resignation. Please don't leave....but I know you must, and will. Perfect blend of music and lyrics. Reminds me so much of me and.......oh, if I told you, you wouldn't quite get it, nor appreciate it. I need to tell someone. But never will. For various reasons. Maybe YOU will read this, and then get it. Maybe. If You Leave at Karaoke | Reviewer: James ------ About the song If You Leave performed by OMD If your not a very strong singer, this song is great to do at Karaoke . I suck at Karaoke but whenever I do this song I get a lot of praises. It's not to long and very easy to get all the words out. After a few times at it you will be a SUPERSTAR! Enola Gay | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Enola Gay performed by OMD The Enola Gay was named after Enola Gay Tibbets the mother of pilot Paul Tibbets. And when it says "It's 8:15, and that's the time that it's always been." thats the time the bomb was dropped but also many clocks in Hiroshima stopped at that time and will always be like that. one wrong line | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song LA FEMME ACCIDENT performed by OMD 'just use her and turn away', should be else. just love her and turn away, or 'just touch her and turn away, or something else. I feel like femme a. I am a femme accident, since I had two car-accidents. But I don't want to be used for one day. the mountain came to Mohammed when he wasn't able to go to the mountain. Maybe OMD will change the lirics. Je t'aime. La Femme Accident.

Wow I never knew what this song was about | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Enola Gay performed by OMD Although I heard this song a million times, I never knew what it was about. Now I finally learned when I reading about the bombing of Hiroshima and I read that the plane that dropped the first atomic bomb (synically called "Little Boy") was named Enola Gay. It was 8:15 when the bomb was dropped!!!! What a tragedy. Yes like the song says, "It shouldn't ever have to end this way."
