Joan of Arc

#1 & #19 are the same i think - Joan of Ark was Maid of Orleans.+

Yes Joan of Ark was Maid of Orleans but OMD released two distinct singles called "Joan of Arc" and "Maid of Orleans (The Waltz Joan of Arc)" (see the discography on Wikipedia). Confusingly some charts called the second song by the first song's name.

Double Listing - Souvenir

#7 & #35 are the same.

Data fixed, thanks

I just noticed that This artist has different name in some charts. Enola Gay was a top 1 hit in spain

What names? Every song with the string "Enola" in the title is credited to "Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark" in these lists. If there are other artist names that should be changed to fix inconsistencies a hint at what they are would help us to find them and fix them. Suggesting "they are different in some charts" is of little use

Hey, I am checking this blog using the phone and this appears to be kind of odd. Thought you'd wish to know. This is a great write-up nevertheless, did not mess that up.

Track 2 should be called (Forever) Live and Die. Not "Love" and die.

Thank you for the correction
