Track: Joan Of Arc (Live), Artist: OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark), Album: Architecture And Morality Tour - Live At The Theatre Royal, Drury Lane - 1981
They are bloody good! Powerful vocals from Andy McCluskey and beautiful synths from Paul Humphries! They made so many songs that brought tears to the eyes!
From the moment he already goes one octave up in the first verse, you know he’s going into full Andy mode and there’s no limit from there, I’ll always ADORE this performance !
McCluskey certainly gives a great performance here. He doesn't even mind if his voice slips a couple of times. This is an extraordinary live clip anno 1981.
@@forestfire1232 Crikey cant remember Was UEA though in Norwich ..And they looked very nervous as close to the crowd ..it was either my first or second concert the other being Bauhaus .. I do remember them going off to Enola Gay and before coming back on they left the drum machine to it running which went in and on ...that famous beat ..All memory allows I'm afraid..
this song was my first taste of OMD , it was on an early 80's compilation - wish i could remember the name of the album , but i remember i was mesmerized with this song
Give them to me!!! Lol I had a rear 7" single of Electricty and the album "Street To Street: A Liverpool Album" On it is Julia's Song by The ID......before they became OMD 👌
Does anyone ever got the second and number twelve songs from this 1981 concert? It is Mysteriality and She's Leaving ..anybody's planning to put them online?

No auto-tune, absolutely amazing! Almost Gospely!
That goofy dancing was his tradmark, great to see him enjoying himself while performing.
Fang teeth
Im 46 and listening to this for the first time in my life
Wow amazing vocals
the singer is totally in trance ....love it.
Talk about feeling the music - Andy! ... Awesome and inspiring!

Joan of Arc; greatest Saint in Heaven!!; I saw OMD play this song in the mid 1980s; such nostalgia! :)
He's still doing that dance to this very day. Good ole OMD!
JRHartly1984 and now even
What a great band.....took Electronica to great levels....EPIC
what a great band. fantastic live sound. genius.
Damn that beat at 50 seconds, could be twenty years later. A revolution in sound ! Thanks OMD.
Absolutely!!!
I love that goofy dancing. They sound awesome live. This song is one of their best...
One of my favourate songs. Ever
Andy McCluskey-what a singer! He sounds inspired, in rapture. The band are in a special groove too.
Brilliant impassioned live performance that tops the original recording. Wish I'd been there.
If anyone wants lessons on how to dance with a bass guitar while playing...watch this video! Tremendous!
Brilliant....Andy!!!!!
This for me was their best... greater than the sum of its parts as it were.
Simply superb.
You are ABSOLUTELY right!!!!
Thank you, Andy, for this unforgettable performance...
Powerful performance, powerful line "She shouldn't oughta promise cuz it's just pretend."
Brilliant musicians and what a singer
A case of can't sing live

Both this and the music video for Maid of Orleans mean so much more when you know Joan of Arc's story.
Gosh I love his voice, so powerful and it’s beautifully unusual, gives me goosebumps, also love their songs
transcends you to heaven and back
Año 1981!!!! Unos avanzados a su tiempo!!!!geniales!!!!que lastima que ahora no existan grupos asi!!!
lastima que no te puedo dar un millon de me gusta.
Saw them live back around 82, during their USA tour, it was magical...!
My early twenties days loved this song till today 2023
Wow 👏
Just brilliant
Looove it when Andy Screams!!!!!
Omd just a different class ❤❤❤❤
Quelle performance, sublime McCluskey, et quel morceau !
OMD's Joan of Arc- the live "Angry" version!
One word.....AWESOME!
What a band! Their influence on current music is enormous.
Goosebumpy!
Wow, thanks for the post. Great live performance of a stunning song.
Perfect pop , has the same urgency as joy division
A favourite of my close buddy .. ultimately every Orchie can relate .. and hope adore .

Sings it
Plays it
Feels it
Dances it
Say no more.
Bloody fantastic
@@leewilliams2763 bono ain't a patch on andy mccluskey .....its worth the admission watching him dancing ...
@@leewilliams2763 lmao comparing andy to that stick is bloody hilarious
as a smiths and moz/marr fan i sympathise with their point about multi-syllable (sp!?) band names etc but my god you cant deny this is a classic
Excellent!
Great live performance!!! Voice sounds like the album version and well... tape recordings are tape recordings... :)
This was my first favourite radio song
Inolvidable tema inolvidable voz inolvidable grupo.
Gracias OMD
Yeeeeeeeeeah Goofy Dancing !!! Thank You Mr. McCluskey !!!
Typical self-expression-80's-dancing 😉
I miss these days
Yes of course, I miss these days too !!!

God bless Joan x.
Gran canción, me encanta la melodia ,alguien sabría traducirla? Gracias
Wow thank you!
Enola Gay was magical at this live concert 🎵 ❤
Without me👫❤👀
via la france we are with u
increible ble ble
I was at the gig. I wanted to get backsnage so I heard Andy like rabbits so I took rabbit and the green bidet. They wouldn't let me backsnage.
.......
Why didn't you just go backsTage?
Great
Kocham Ich !!
✨✨✨✨🌟🌟🌟👌💚
il est possedé !!!

no cóż cięż ko znalezc teraz takie kapele
Andy:"This is for the religiously-minded amongst us".
Man: "No way"!
Andy: "Or not..."
And what is that guy saying after that??
This is a best Version of compensation.
When all say that he is gay, he tried to be a rock and roller.
Most Britains are gay, I guess. So don't worry. :)
@@bertthebird2341 are you sure he’s gay
Has he got his bass strung upside down?
And don't forget ERIC.....if you know, you know! 😎
Brilliant. But I doubt very much if that guitar is plugged in. How could he play it properly dancing like that.
It is plugged in trust me. It’s OMD style. He’s playing root notes.
Should have known better than to give her away
Without Me ....
Do not mess with Enola Gay......
The song is great. I hate the added speed of this version. It makes the performance sound like a parody of the song.
Arska777999 I agree but it's something different. The lead singer is definitely crazy (in a good way LOL).
He lost it a bit...
Well it is a very emotional song
otwarte a nie pirdodly zycie samo pokazuje jak jest cos nie tak
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! plus de trente ans se sont passés!! merci!!!
Looove it when Andy Screams!!!!!1
Greatest Hits?
