Talking loud and clear - Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark

'Talking loud and clear' was released as the second single from Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark's 1984 album 'Junk culture'. The single reached number 11 in the UK singles chart and number 5 in the Dutch Top 40.

I remember not being very impressed with OMD's 1984 singles. They sounded too lush compared to the stark synth sound of their earlier singles. Fortunately time has been friendly to their music and it's a very pleasant listen now.

My collection: 7" single no. 4113
Found: Empire Records, Den Haag, October 17, 2009
Cost: 0,5 euro
Tracks: 'Talking loud and clear' / 'Julia's song'
