The Friday Canon: OMD

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

OMG its OMD! You get SIX ticks covering the awkward synthpoppers' seventeen Top Forty hits.



Check out Andy McLuskey's BEAK!

[Poll #1024857]

I was going to combine this with a canon for top OMD side project Atomic Kitan but it will have to wait!

Thanks, Ed! I must remember existence of that site.

Tom appears to be right about "the huge clutch" - there were loads of OMITD singles in the late 80s and early 90s that just missed the 40.

But of the earlier, funnier material, i.e. first 6 alBUMs (after which I went off them), there is:

Red Frame, White Light (peaked at #67) - this is grebt
Telegraph (#42) - almost as grebt
Never Turn Away (#70)
La Femme Accident (#48) - more grebness
If You Leave ("from the Pretty in Pink OST") (#42)
