Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark ----- Souvenir

On 4 August 1981, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark released “Souvenir” - the lead single from their third studio album "Architecture & Morality”. The track is characterised by its use of slowed-down choral loops, and showcases OMD's early approach of utilising a synthesizer hook in place of a vocal chorus. The song has garnered praise from critics and fellow artists.

"Souvenir" became an international hit for the band. Peaking at number 3 on the UK Singles Chart, it remains the group's highest-charting single in their home country, along with 1991's "Sailing on the Seven Seas". The song also reached the Top 10 in several European countries, including topping the charts in Spain and Portugal.

It's my direction
It's my proposal
It's so hard
It's leading me astray

My obsession
It's my creation
You'll understand
It's not important now

All I need is
Co-ordination
I can't imagine
My destination

My intention
Ask my opinion
But no excuse
My feelings still remain

My feelings still remain
