There are two songs on it, which are good. That´s all. So you don´t miss much, when you don´t own this album. |

What I know is, that Andy McCluskey and Stewart Kershaw are already writing on new songs for their girl-band Atomic Kitten. It seems as if they had enough success, to continue with this project. They had 3 Top 10 singles in the UK and obviously they do have many fans in Asia. So I wouldn´t count on any solo projects of Andy in the near future. The only good news concerning OMD is, that there might be a release of a B-side-album in this year. |

Just as an information:
The girl-band "Atomic Kitten", which Andy McCluskey is producing since the end of OMD, is the current No. 1 in the UK charts with their song "Whole again". This is already the 5th single off of their debut album. He never was No. 1 was OMD in the UK, but now he finally made it. <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle> |

I love OMD as well. My fav album though is their last The Universal. I love songs like Victory Waltz. It was so upsetting to learn that they're now just writing tunes for a girl band. I think OMD was highly underestimated and ignored...then again I feel the same way for Alphaville in North America too...
Tara ...it's too bad.. |

Yup Tara! That´s right, OMD and Alphaville were/are highly underestimated, not only in North America!

OMD are also one of my favourite groups. They have done many great songs for example:
- Pandora´s box - Call my name - Dreaming - Dollar girl - Speed of light - Walk tall - Walking on the milky way - The moon & the sun - Goddess of love - Stay - The romance of the telescope - The lights are going out I must say that I like the three last (or hopefully latest) better than the things they did when Paul Humpreys also was in the band. You might know that Andy McCluskey (the main singer and writer) unfortunately nowadays write songs for a girl band, called "Atomic kitten" instead of for OMD. I heard 1/3 of such a song two days ago on MTV and it didn´t sound either good or bad. Have anyone of you heard it and what do you think about it? |
