“It’s not the original vocal but it is Paul Humphreys singing. Who is singing lead on the Moby remixes of ‘Souvenir’? It’s most definitely not the original vocal track. The plot revolves around a femme fatale played by Louise Brooks and actually incorporates two stories originally written for the stage, Pandora’s Box and The Earth Spirit. ‘Pandora’s Box’ was inspired by the silent film star Louise Brooks and the song is named after her most famous film – Pandora’s Box (1929) which was directed by the German film-maker GW Pabst. Was just wondering who the song ‘Pandora’s Box’ was about? Aliss Terrell (who was an American girl living in France at the time) translated the lyrics.

“Essentially it’s the chorus repeated in French and also the intro of the song is the chorus in French time-stretched. Hi guys, can anyone tell me what the girls are singing in the background in the second half of ‘The Dead Girls’, I’ve tried everywhere and it is driving me and my Grandson insane. For example, ‘Whiter Shade Of Pale’ by Procul Harum and ‘Roll Away The Stone’ by Mott The Hoople”. “It’s similar to many “classical” rock song chord sequences that take their inspiration from ‘Air On A G String’ by Bach. Is it a new composition or is it classical music ? I have been searching the origins of the intro to ‘Walking on the Milky Way’. The context for many of the queries and replies featured on these pages has obviously changed over time but have been preserved here intact as a window on a particular period in OMD’s history. Lyrically detailing the atomic bombing on Hiroshima during World War II by the B-29 Superfortress aircraft, the song scored a UK Top 10 on the singles charts and went on to become an International success, selling more than 5 million copies worldwide and ingraining itself as a synth-pop classic and arguably OMD’s signature track.The Questions & Answers section of the Official OMD Website proved to be a popular feature in which queries about OMD’s record releases and career could be answered directly by Andy McCluskey or by site administrator and OMD archivist Paul Browne. Recorded at Ridge Farm Studios in Dorking, and released on September 26th, 1980, ‘Enola Gay’ was the only single from the band’s second studio album, Organisation.

It’s already a perfect song, so this is just a tribute and an homage, made all the more meaningful with the occurrence this year of the 75th anniversary of the atomic bombs on Japan.

Of the remix, Al comments, “Getting your hands on the raw material of ‘Enola Gay’ feels like stealing into hallowed halls. The single has also received a sublime, hypnotic remix from Hot Chip’s Al Doyle, out today. The band has also unveiled a special new and enhanced HD version of the original ‘Enola Gay’ video - watch here. The digital version is available to purchase today, and pre-orders for the 12″ colored vinyl are available now HERE. The second is a slowed down, chilled out rework that is far removed from the original but remains undeniably glorious. One extended mix uses the original master multi-track, which sounds like the 12″ version that never was, but should have been released in 1980. The release features two brand new mixes of the track by Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys.
