After living through the 1980's as a kid it was the best times of my life. Now that I'm 55 it REALLY touches you how beautiful the music was. The 80's music will ALWAYS touch my heart.
After being a rockabilly through 1979/80 I then heard Enola gay and fell in love with synth music.This group helped change my life for the better and this tune was one of the greatest hits of the 80's. Whenever I see OMD live and they play this it just brings back some fantastic memories of the early 80's.How I would love to live those days again.Architecture and morality was such a tremendous album with so many fantastic tunes.
You are a few years younger than m father dear Lady. But i guess he also heard it from my room. And why i mentioned my father is because my parents are divorced.
Es gibt Lieder, die hört man durch Zufall nach langer Zeit im Radio beim Autofahren, und man macht den Ton ganz laut und ist happy. Gänsehaut-Lied, für immer👍
@@carmenrammenstein5512Da bin ich gedanklich sofort immer wieder 11...als ich die Single damals kaufte & noch bis heute habe! War übrigens meine erste eigens gekaufte. Zeitloses Meisterwerk !!!
Komisch aber bei dem Lied lief der berühmte film der jugend in mir ab.sofort kamen mir menschen in den sinn die ich damals kannte und dann später aus den augen verlor.
Omd probably one of the most underrated bands of the 80s by those who didn't appreciate great music by great musicians that is... Omd were ahead of their time..
@Maad Wunz The drumming at the start is a bit similar. I used to think OMD played lovely music but their lyrics were a bit twee in comparison to Joy Division. Mind you not too many indie bands were as dark as Joy Division.
For me, this is the greatest song and video from OMD. I'm 57 and when I hear the first notes I still get goose bumps. March 15th 2022.. I got those goose bumps again when they played those first notes at the Royal Albert Hall last night. Andy, Paul, Martin & Stuart, thank you for a fantastic concert. 26 live songs in all their glory.
I saw them live in Manchester last month... this has always been my favourite OMD song ... to hear it played live was electric! I am nearly 59, a true '80s teen & forever grateful for it.
Haha. I'm 58 and this song blew me away as a 19 year old in New Zealand. I think we were fortunate to live during the 80s and appreciate what it has given us.
I bought the 7" vinyl single I've still got it lying around somewhere or other. I heard it on the radio the other day I had to come here to listen to it again.
550 years after the death of the Real Joane of Arc, OMD brings the musican version alive. This track is everything that makes electronic music of the 80's to the best. Than this track starts, my world stops for a while. Thanks for this outstanding masterpiece of music and sound in history ❤.
We loved the 80s, growing up and enjoying life in the 80s and we loved OMD. It was the best era in music and entertainment in general. How do we know this music was the best and timeless, because we loved it then and we love it even more so now, realizing that it will never repeat itself in music, movies or feelings. Thank you OMD and that decade of entertainment for incredible memories.
It was the best of times and the worst of times. Great music,great clothes, great hair, great cars but always hanging over us the idiotic power games between USA and USSR. anyway I am ,57 now and I do not give a flying fuck, Over the last 4 years the world I knew has descended into trans madness. I really believe the end is nigh for the human race.
Spooky. I can remember the exact same thing when I first heard Oxygene part IV on my dad's car stereo when I was 6. I thanked my dad for introducing me to Jean Michael Jarre. Sounds like you feel the same way about this. Gives me goosebumps too by the way, there's just something about this record.
Sublime theme without a doubt, from my adolescence until the present moment I have never stopped listening to it. It is one of the most important topics in my life, with which I declared my only love, with whom I spent the best years of my life until I lost her in 2019, she is still in my heart but how much I miss her. She was and will be the only woman in my life. Thank you for uploading this pleasant melody that always transports me to the side of my beloved. Greetings from Barcelona Spain.
Kudos to the director Steve Barron for this superlative MTV. Great storytelling that truly gives credibility and presence to this most wonderful OMD track.
Incredible how a particular song can transport you back in time,this being a favourite of mine.I was 15 and remember sitting in my classroom staring out of the window without a care in the world. Mom and dad back home looking after me,grans,grandads, aunts and uncles still a part of my life.They no longer with me but Maid of Orleans gives me a glimpse of what I once had thx OMD🙏🙏
As a child of the 70's and 80's I grew up with this music! It is always nice to hear this masterpiece and to remember the best time in our young years, because all that remains in our hearts are our memories, while everything else fades away! Als Kind der 70´s und 80´s bin ich mit dieser Musik aufgewachsen! Immer wieder schön dieses Meisterwerk zu hören und sich an die beste Zeit in jungen Jahren zu erinnern, denn alles was in unseren Herzen zurück bleibt sind unsere Erinnerungen, während alles andere vergeht!
I was born and raised in the GDR and I loved OMD from the first time. Especially when I couldn't hear the music legally whenever I wanted. So it was very special to listen to them. ❤️
Madre mía!!! Que música tan bonita, la escucho una y otra vez y no me cansa. Que distinta de las músicas de hoy día. Llenas de ordinariez y sin melodía.
I was once hired as a DJ at a wedding and they asked me to play a waltz for the newlyweds to dance to. I played this song and the whole wedding party cheered by the first sounds of it. Not to mention that the bride and the groom loved it, the dancefloor filled quickly and they all thanked me later especially for that stroke of genius to play Maid of Orleans instead of some classical piece (which I failed to bring to the party).
This classic was in the charts exactly 40 years ago, my first Christmas after leaving school, what a time to be 16 years old going to the pub and playing this and many others on the jukebox
I used to live across the street from Andy Mccluskeys mum in my early teens and used to see him all of the time, I just stood and stared in complete awe, he always smiled at me and I never had the nerve to ask for his autograph!
Está canción es, sin duda, una de las mejores de la historia de la humanidad. Dentro de 1000 años seguirá sonando y siendo igual de buena que hoy. Saludos.❤
Zgadza się. Gdy słucham tej piosenki z wielkim trudem powstrzymuje łzy, a przecież mezczyźnie nie wypada ..nie znajdę słów aby określić to co czuje słuchając tego utworu, a teledysk wprost zachwyca na nowo...to była niesamowita era muzyki lat 80. Chyba sam Bóg zstąpił na chwilę i pomógł wykonawcom bo to wydaje się niemozliwe aby śmiertelny człowiek stworzył coś nieśmiertelnego i wiecznego 🔥♥️🔥♥️🔥♥️🔥♥️
Love this song, relaxes, soothes and calms the soul. Takes me back to a time when nothing really mattered but the music, no worries, no stress, life was good.
this is one of so many great hits from OMD , the 80`s rocked with this group , some eerie songs , some up beat , a vast difference in tracks over the years, OMD STILL POPULAR IN 2022
OMD were years ahead of their time , well done Andy and the rest of the Birkenhead lads , its 2022 we're on the verge of war and this track still sounds brilliant, im 54 now , just proves how good omd really were
Wow!! Saw them last night in Manchester... they were absolutely superb! It took me four decades to see my favourite '80s band - so glad I finally got there :)
This was one of my mums favourite songs, she took her own life many years ago, sometimes it will come on the radio just at the right time and take my breath away for a second, that intro is haunting!
OMD, Alphaville, Human legue, Yazoo, Eurythmics, Bell book& candle, etc etc to name a few... all LEGENDS .ALL what made the 80's so great as a teenager for me❤ #loving this in2024❤
Xcuse me...Bell Book & Candle??? 80s !!!!! Guess you've got something wrong.😉Aber die kennt man doch eher nur, wenn man deutsch ist, oder? :-) But mainly they were known in D A CH. Or r u from the UK? But anyway, all of 'em were gr8!
I was 10 when these came out. Loved it then, still love it now. OMD were way ahead of their time. Thanks for the great memories - and the ability to play this for the next 40 years.
I'm so glad that I was old enough to be living through this music when it was brand new, as a teen. Back in the days when we had cassette tapes, boom boxes, walkmans and parachute pants. I amassed a small collection about 200 CD's and 80 or so cassettes and only recently lost it in a repossessed storage unit.
La Doncella de Orleans es un icono de la música electrónica de los ochenta. Un homenaje a la Santa Juana de Arco después de ser capturada durante la Guerra de Los Cien años cuando encabeza las tropas francesas . Una mezcla del medievo y lo sensorial a través del ritmo de la caja y el teclado electrónico. Me evoca los años ochenta de mi adolescencia. Gracias OMD por componer temas tan sublimes .
El valls de Santa Juana de arco. En el vinilo original de ellos del 81,y el recopilatorio del 88,lo ponía. Preciosa la canción. Julia Tobin es la actriz que protagoniza el vídeo.
Jedes mal "Gänsehaut" bei diesem Title und Erinnerungen an mein erstes Konzert das ich jemals besucht habe. OMD, in Düsseldorf in der Phillipshalle wie sie damals noch hieß. Es muss 1982 oder 1983 gewesen sein, weil ich da "noch" keinen Führerschein hatte und mein Vater mich nach Düsseldorf zum Konzert gebracht hat. Jetzt habe ich Karten für den 02.02.2024 in HH, bin gespannt wie das wird. 🥳🥳🥳
I bought this album the week it came out here in Toronto. A friend told me to buy it. I had no idea what it was. I must have listened to it dozens of times mesmerized by the sound the day I bought it. It was so electronic, it was so unique. At the time I was listening to the Clash, Specials, Beat.... this just blew me away. And I still have this album. My kids love it.
The sad thing is that some of my youth have already left, of course much too early, but it shows that the impacts are getting closer, oh man, how did I love my youth and the 80s 👍😢
LYRICS: Joan of Arc had a heart Would she give it as a gift To such as me Who longs to see How an angel ought to be Her dream's to give her heart away Like an orphan on a wave She cared so much She offered up Her body to the grave
My daughter will be 35 years old this year (2019). It was this music and era that produced her! Thank you OMD, Ultravox, Classix Neauvoux, and the rest!
Chanson exceptionnelle, batteur exceptionnel 👍👍👍, il faut l'écouter dans cette chanson, il est fantastique jusqu'à la fin, bravo OMD 😉😉😉. je suis de votre génération, je suis né en 1970...

This was my Grandpa's favorite song and we played it him in the hospital before he died
Still love you ❤️

Great drum playing!
This song is an absolute masterpiece.
Right👍😘
Amen!!!!

Not the jumpers!

Don’t mind getting older, as I grew up in a decade of pure brilliant music
Me neither! Bought this beautiful & magnificent record on vinyl as an 18-yr-old. Booked to see them in Manchester this coming November!
You said it!
I'm with you on that I'm 71yrs young
I'm guessing your mid 50's..I'm 59 and my teenage/early 20's years were a maelstrom of wonderful songs.

My god...the drumming on this is sublime
yes and the live version is wonderful
It sure is absolute epic.
Couldn’t agree more.
Dieses Lied wird alle Zeiten überleben!
In the Netherlands we consider this a top 100 song of all time.
It is.
Its slowly sliding down the list though, people aging and dying it started as 184th out of the top2000 ever it is now at place 582.
Zeker weten... klasse nummer

Janfrans Zuidema Ik ook! Van Spanje tot
volgende keer
In Hungary I consider so, too. :D
I took it to my list of "Best slow songs" on the ~10-20th place.
The video greatly enhances the pleasure.
I feel so so lucky to have had this decade for my youth …. It was THEE best decade ever … would love to live it again and again
We were blessed in our salad days.
You don’t hear music like this anymore pure master piece
Natural artists thrived in the 80s, a lot of today's music is undistinguishable
@@donaloriordan2536
*indistinguishable
I totally agree, this song is just fantastic
Nope, maybe the odd hidden one, certainly no main stream ones.
Agreed. I had to inadvertently listen to Kiss FM today at work and it played complete crap all day.
Nice to see Brenda not moaning at Neville about bathroom tiles... 🤣.
This will ALWAYS be my favourite song from my teenage years. Thank You 💖💖💖💖
If you’re watching this in 2023, you’re a legend. 👏🏻👏🏻
Great song
Roll on march 2024 so I get to hear it live at Ipswich
They were brilliant at Heritage Live in Audley End 11th August 23. Don’t know where he gets his energy from!

I was 10 when these came out. Loved it then, still love it now. OMD were way ahead of their time. Thanks for the great memories - and the ability to play this for the next 40 years.
I'm so glad that I was old enough to be living through this music when it was brand new, as a teen. Back in the days when we had cassette tapes, boom boxes, walkmans and parachute pants. I amassed a small collection about 200 CD's and 80 or so cassettes and only recently lost it in a repossessed storage unit.
Vor 40 Jahren ein Hit und Heute noch immer - Ein Song für die Ewigkeit
Ja
Tolle Melodie, die sehr schöne Erinnerungen weckt.
La Doncella de Orleans es un icono de la música electrónica de los ochenta. Un homenaje a la Santa Juana de Arco después de ser capturada durante la Guerra de Los Cien años cuando encabeza las tropas francesas . Una mezcla del medievo y lo sensorial a través del ritmo de la caja y el teclado electrónico. Me evoca los años ochenta de mi adolescencia. Gracias OMD por componer temas tan sublimes .
si, curioso tributo de un grupo ingles a una enemiga e de inglaterra en el medioevo..
El valls de Santa Juana de arco.
En el vinilo original de ellos del 81,y el recopilatorio del 88,lo ponía.
Preciosa la canción.
Julia Tobin es la actriz que protagoniza el vídeo.

Bin 17 und höre dieses Lied so oft und bekomme trotzdem jedes Mal Gänsehaut
Ich bin 58 und höre das Lied jeden Tag bestimmt 3x. Ein Song für die Ewigkeit.
Geht mir genauso. Geht auch nach fast 40 Jahren immernoch tief unter die Haut.
Jedes mal "Gänsehaut" bei diesem Title und Erinnerungen an mein erstes Konzert das ich jemals besucht habe. OMD, in Düsseldorf in der Phillipshalle wie sie damals noch hieß. Es muss 1982 oder 1983 gewesen sein, weil ich da "noch" keinen Führerschein hatte und mein Vater mich nach Düsseldorf zum Konzert gebracht hat. Jetzt habe ich Karten für den 02.02.2024 in HH, bin gespannt wie das wird. 🥳🥳🥳
It's Brenda from Auf Wiedersehn Pet ! Absolute classic tune from a class band. Can't wait to see them again next year in Liverpool.
I bought this album the week it came out here in Toronto. A friend told me to buy it. I had no idea what it was. I must have listened to it dozens of times mesmerized by the sound the day I bought it. It was so electronic, it was so unique. At the time I was listening to the Clash, Specials, Beat.... this just blew me away. And I still have this album. My kids love it.
Another brilliant song from this totally underrated duo.
Still watch in 24’ and seeing them on tour to.
Das war das Lieblingslied meiner Oma. Wir haben es auf ihrer Trauerfeier gespielt. Oma hoffentlich hast du es jetzt gut da oben❤️🕊️
Godbless rip
The sad thing is that some of my youth have already left, of course much too early, but it shows that the impacts are getting closer, oh man, how did I love my youth and the 80s 👍😢
Einer der besten 80er. Supersong. Geht mir immer noch nicht aus dem Kopf. Gänsehaut.
Who could dislike this wonderful song???
LYRICS:
Joan of Arc had a heart
Would she give it as a gift
To such as me
Who longs to see
How an angel ought to be
Her dream's to give her heart away
Like an orphan on a wave
She cared so much
She offered up
Her body to the grave
I searched for the lyrics, thank you :*
I've been searching for this song since childhood and now it suddenly appears!
One of the greatest Songs ever
An absolute work of art. Simple and class. A masterpiece. This is why this great era for music will never bow out. Forever trapped!
I'm a tough guy, but, genuinely,i feel like crying when i hear this. Reminds me of good times long ago. Times not so good for me now. life sucks.
I always loved OMD. They did some great tunes. Totally unique.
Zoooo mooi nummer dit.. Als kind was ik gek op de clip.. De muziek is prachtig!! ❤❤
My favourite song of all times. Gives me chills every time I hear it.
Dont cry Miss Laurie
My daughter will be 35 years old this year (2019). It was this music and era that produced her! Thank you OMD, Ultravox, Classix Neauvoux, and the rest!
One of the best starts to a song - ever
42 Years ago and still a Class of it's own!
Chanson exceptionnelle, batteur exceptionnel 👍👍👍, il faut l'écouter dans cette chanson, il est fantastique jusqu'à la fin, bravo OMD 😉😉😉. je suis de votre génération, je suis né en 1970...
