    here are the lyrics
    If Joan of Arc
    Had a heart
    Would she give it as a gift
    To such as me
    Who longs to see
    how an angel ought to be
    Her dreams to give
    Her heart away
    Like an orphan along the way
    She cared so much
    She offered up
    Her body to the grave

    80S.. Musical creativity at its best. OMD one of the finest Sybth/pop bands of all time. Andrew George McClucky one of the great showman ..Still think OMD were underated back in the 80s.. I was so lucky to grow up then with 80s music.

      The only problem is whilst the 80s past by, we are now left with great memories, and can look back and know we really were blessed to have such incredible musicians, all sharing their incredible music with us. OMD were very successful, the only problem is there was so much of it everywhere. It was a magical era.

  • @katm6
    @katm6 Před 6 lety +14

    I love the look on Paul's face around the 1:56 mark when Andy goes dancing past him. And that Andy doesn't let the fact that he has an entire orchestra behind him stop him from dancing as he usually does.

    This song is older than me by a couple of years; I didn't discover it until just a couple of years ago, and saw it live for the first time this past September. Almost cried. "Maid of Orleans" live is always nothing short of amazing.

  • @elenamusano7671

  • @Zynphonian
    @Zynphonian Před 10 lety +4

    One thing I've always love about OMD, and I've seen them at so many gigs, is the fact that Andy just dances around going mental and poor Paul is there trying to concentrate on playing the right keys on the keyboard! These guys are the top banana!!!

  • @charleyfarley5065

    Listen, I know this song is older but I get goose bumps when I hear it always. I figure when I am 90 , i will feel the same. Knowing this , makes me feel ok with aging

  •  Před 8 lety +2

    Grew up with them, still my musical heroes. I'd like to see any current group from the last few years pull this off THIS good. They don't have the songs, the energy, nor the depth. I've met Paul and Andy, both decent guys with real passion. Just simply brilliant.

Something truly fantastic, that's what! Thank you for uploading this treasure, and thank you OMD

    Watched them last night for the second time in three years in Toronto ... spectacular voice and for the better part, they have their instruments tuned to the exact sound of the original era ... tough to do with new synths considering the original synths they recorded Architecture and Morality are +30 years old analogue.
