Like many others here, OMD arguably deserve more than one entry, and it was a very close call between this and Joan Of Arc. Enola Gay steals the title, though, because of its almost naive arrangement, which includes some of the biggest synth hooks of all time. And what other tune could cause so much embarrassing dancing at weddings?
