Enola Gay

Written by Andy McCluskey, this anti-war song from Organisation (1980) addresses the atomic bombing of Hiroshima on 6 August 1945 and features a melodic synthesizer break instead of a sung chorus. It reached number 8 on the UK Singles Chart and topped the charts in Italy, Portugal, and Spain. The track is regarded as OMD's signature song alongside "If You Leave".
