This is an amazing song from an amazing band. Brings forth tears. The 80’ was such an amazing time.his voice has not aged one second. Love from Denmark
80S.. Musical creativity at its best. OMD one of the finest Sybth/pop bands of all time. Andrew George McClucky one of the great showman ..Still think OMD were underated back in the 80s.. I was so lucky to grow up then with 80s music.
Ich habe Gänsehaut, und die Erinnerungen der 80er kommen gerade so richtig hoch 🤟😎❤️🤩👍Ich kann meine erste große Liebe einfach nicht vergessen. Er ist immer noch in meinem ❤️und Kopf.
I play this more than any other song - it lifts me up & sets me gently down.... I am transported back to happy times & my memories will stay with me for ever
Mate they are thee best synth band of the 80s period...no our band has a great a catalogue of tracks as these guys ..and they're still going strong performing. .sheer class.
The only problem is whilst the 80s past by, we are now left with great memories, and can look back and know we really were blessed to have such incredible musicians, all sharing their incredible music with us. OMD were very successful, the only problem is there was so much of it everywhere. It was a magical era.
I love the look on Paul's face around the 1:56 mark when Andy goes dancing past him. And that Andy doesn't let the fact that he has an entire orchestra behind him stop him from dancing as he usually does.
Wow! An outstanding performance to a brilliant song.. That's made my day/month/whatever year! I havnt heard this tune in ages until tonight.. I'm 51 and almost forgot about OMD.. Hats off!
This song is older than me by a couple of years; I didn't discover it until just a couple of years ago, and saw it live for the first time this past September. Almost cried. "Maid of Orleans" live is always nothing short of amazing.
had the 12" of this when it came out, and it was great, but this! What a performance!! Shivers down my spine the whole time, and I find myself applauding at the end with my headphones on whilst others here in the kitchen wonder what on earth I'm watching. Something truly fantastic, that's what! Thank you for uploading this treasure, and thank you OMD
Listen, I know this song is older but I get goose bumps when I hear it always. I figure when I am 90 , i will feel the same. Knowing this , makes me feel ok with aging
One thing I've always love about OMD, and I've seen them at so many gigs, is the fact that Andy just dances around going mental and poor Paul is there trying to concentrate on playing the right keys on the keyboard! These guys are the top banana!!!
Simply THE Song of my life. I have no idea, how many thousands times I heard it meanwile. Fantasic Version, musicians and voice! When Andy dances this way, you can feel the passion of OMD.
Oh what a night class a piece of art ..... beautiful performed... the dance is amazing I watch this video of maid of Orleans from year to year all I can say is it gets better thanks for sharing the Joan of Arc 😋😍😙
hahaha Joan of Arc it's a fine piece of art. ..Life is beautiful for me to burn was a lesson to learn how beautiful life really is always and forever Joan of Arc 🕀 and let the music play🔊🎶🎵

Grew up with them, still my musical heroes. I'd like to see any current group from the last few years pull this off THIS good. They don't have the songs, the energy, nor the depth. I've met Paul and Andy, both decent guys with real passion. Just simply brilliant.
Jees that was fantastic -I'm surprised Andy didn't burn out with all that energetic dancing -he seemed ecstatic there. Great backing with that orchestra.
This is iconic. A beauty of a rendition ❤️
Orchestra with orchestral.manoevres in the dark .gorgeous
Truly one of the most iconic songs of all time!
Enola Gay trumps it!
OMD, U2 & Simple Minds, I miss my youth so much but this song took me back to carefree times 🥳🕺🤪

THE BEST 👍
George andrew mccluskey ..... 🎉
Just wow. When we are all long gone. This masterpiece will still be here.
Bloody bloody bloody brilliant, 30 years on and live. It don't get better than this
Ich habe Gänsehaut, und die Erinnerungen der 80er kommen gerade so richtig hoch 🤟😎❤️🤩👍Ich kann meine erste große Liebe einfach nicht vergessen. Er ist immer noch in meinem ❤️und Kopf.
❤️
Geht mir genauso
Wow, this has got to be the BEST version of Maid of Orleans I've ever heard!
It's brilliant
It's brilliant 😍
Yes
Good musician vibe
It's great, but choir and full orchestra drown out the distinctive thundering drums that make this song so special.
I play this more than any other song - it lifts me up & sets me gently down.... I am transported back to happy times & my memories will stay with me for ever
Masterpiece. Best song ever. Not a lot of singers have this much presence on stage, Except for Elvis & Freddie.
Well said
...and Jarvis Cocker. 👍🏼
Absolutely amazing,most underrated group of the 80s in my opinion.
Ha ha ha I was about to post the same
completely underrated
I agree they were underrated but awesome all the same.

My neighbours are listening to this very loudly.
I hope they like it....

Can’t stop playing this, gives me goosebumps every time 🙂
Snap
Bet I've watched this 20 times today...very uplifting.
Me neither
I love the way he dances! Absolutly authentic , no Show , only pure Emotion ond Music!
Andy is the man, he’s passionate, he’s powerful and a clever songwriter
You should have seen them 40 years ago ... he "tripped the light fantastic". What a dancer! He is 52 there and still doing this thing. Fabulous!
IMHO the finest OMD song there is. And it just got better!
Thee very best song ever wrote. The music is something else. And Andy on stage, say no more. Pure Brilliance. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
best version ever. Brilliant. Awesome. I couldn't stop listening it again and again
OMG!! Outstanding 😍
Epic stuff. If I had that on the headphones, I could climb Scafell in a blizzard.
How good is this?????😊😊😊❤
A fantastic song, and this performance was entertainment at its best, please don`t retire.
I have loved this song ever since the 80s and still do. Great performance of a great band
Brilliant song. Love this band. Thank you for posting.
Absolutely love this track..... even after all these years, it still sounds amazing! OMD are legends 👍
As any good parent should do I introduced OMD to my daughter. She loves them now. X
I am with you on that 😊
Still love Andy’s dancing 🕺
I loved the 3:32 part where you could feel the happiness and joy the violin player experienced of being part of this wonderfull piece of music ❤️
Been a fan since the 80's and this has got to be one of the best versions of Maid of Orleans... amazing, gave me goosebumps
Joan of Arc (Maid of Orleans) is WAY the best Orchestral Pop-Song EVER made! :-) Even after now 36 Years, nothing comes even close.
Is it that long ago?
@@markyoung8545 I'm so old, but yep.
Vienna..Ultravox.
10 years on still sounds great, 40 years on from the original!!!!! 40 YEARS!!!!!! OMG

You know its good when the orchestra start smiling too. Love it.
One of the best songs from the 80's.
This was my favourite OMD song - they were also my favourite '80's band
Seen these back in the day supporting Gary Numan at Newcastle city hall ,Happy Days
Der absolute Hammer
What a great voice Andy has. And a Great dancer as well
This song is older than me by a couple of years; I didn't discover it until just a couple of years ago, and saw it live for the first time this past September. Almost cried. "Maid of Orleans" live is always nothing short of amazing.
OMD, after all these years can still sing and play bloody well.
Wonderful to hear a superb orchestra play one of my favourites.
Still here still supporting this fantastic group in 2024

These guys had/have more talent in their little finger(s) than the rest of the so called mega bands have in their entire bodies.
So damn true!!!
You can’t diss Depeche Mode like that!!! 😂

The same voice of 80s. Its amazing

Simply THE Song of my life. I have no idea, how many thousands times I heard it meanwile.
Fantasic Version, musicians and voice!
When Andy dances this way, you can feel the passion of OMD.
The tune and the lyrics are sublime. Andy's singing hasn't aged ☺️
The best rendition ever! Absolutely love it!!!
