	The Best of OMD - Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - Song Listings
		Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys make up Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, who were responsible for some of the catchiest and brightest synth pop that the '80s had to offer.
		O.M.D.'s material was a step above other keyboard pop music of the time, thanks to the combination of intelligently crafted hooks and colorful rhythms that bounced and jittered with pristine charm.
		O.M.D.'s best work came from 1985's Crush album, which harbored the midnight airiness found in "So in Love" as well as the adolescent innocence that streamed its way through "Secret," which are two of the best tracks on this set.

		That’s not to detract anything from OMD’s accomplishment, but it does explain why their debut is so good: they pick and choose from the best that the genre has to offer.
		OMD does arrive at what could be called a signature style, that wilting romantic music where two voices intertwine in wistful countermelody over a twitchy rhythm and oddly remote accompaniment.
		As I’ve said before, 1980 was an exciting time for new music, and OMD certainly generated their share of excitement with this energetic album.

		The Pacific Age, while not completely devoid of substance, finds OMD watching the cutting edge fade in the rear view mirror, replaced with slickly produced pop that struggles to be relevant.
		The three opening pieces set the tune for the versatility of the disc, from the delicate and pleading notes mixed with rampaging sounds of Stay, to the beautiful and tragic Forever with its amazing bassline and seducing orchestra, to the astonishing Pacific Age, capable to move the harshest grounds with its complexitiy and sweet lyrics.
		This is the peak that OMD fans were pursuing after the enticing Organisation and Architecture & Morality, the point that Dazzle Ships mastered technowise along with the orchestral sounds that Crush left unexplored.
