Summary: Great CD
Comment: This is a great CD. I had forgotten just how good OMD was. I bought the CD rather than just burn the song I wanted on a CD because I wanted to hear more of their works. This was a great investment, and I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys OMD or just plain good music.

Summary: Great CD
Comment: I just love this CD... it brings back so many great memories of my teenage years back in Germany in the 80s. It really captures the new wave/synth music which was so popular back then in Europe and played on the radios and clubs all the time. I especially love their early song "Souvenir". This CD is one of my all time favorites...
Customer Rating:
Summary: Awesome CD!!
Comment: If you are an OMD fan this is a must have! It has all of their best songs. Worth every penny.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Takes Me Waay Back!
Comment: Loved them as a teen and young adult, now my kids are listening to them as well. IYL, GE and FLAD are my favorites. They call it 'Slow Techno' instead of Synthpop. Enough with the labels! Let's just play it!

Summary: The Best of OMD
Comment: Of course this band is awesome-- if you liked them back then...you will remember why you liked them and then wonder why you have not listened to them lately.

This collection of 16 OMD songs includes all their singles, including "If You Leave" (from the Pretty in Pink soundtrack) and "So in Love." OMD's sound is trademarked mostly by Paul Humphrey and Andy McCluskey's glassy-smooth vocals, along with harmonies that occasionally crack for dramatic emphasis but never shatter. The music is classic early '80s synth-pop, with swelling, hopeful strings and low-key tempos sugar-crusted to keep the songs rich but not totally fluffy. --Beth Bessmer
