Electricity (OMD song)
"Electricity" is the 1979 debut single of the English group Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, featured on their eponymous debut album the following year. Inspired by Kraftwerk's "Radioactivity", the song addresses society's wasteful usage of energy sources. Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys share lead vocals on the track. As with single "Messages", from the same album, the band embraced the concept of machines singing the song's chorus.
