Enola Gay vs The Unforgettable Fire

I am undecided. TUF is clearly a work of poetic greatness yet OMD offer us another genius slice of pop pie

Enjoyed Enola Gay back in the day.

But it’s not in the same league as TUF by any means.

I’ll be doing a NGD vs… poll soon. That will sort out the men from the boys

Never heard of Enola Gay (the song). Played it. Nice. Solid New Wave.

TUF.

Ebola gay has a great groove to it. Classic synth music. I can see the comparison between the two as they are both synth driven, but I can’t really say which is better.

I love ‘souvenir’ by OMD.

NGD deserves a worthy adversary. Towering song.

That is either a really underrated joke or a bad typo/autocorrect....

Top 5 in the 80’s for me.

Both great tracks, but UF is clear winner for me.

TUF. Classic.

Man, I love OMD in general, and Enola Gay for sure. The Unforgettable Fire is my third favorite U2 album. I’ve heard the title track of that album both whilst in the wild and while shopping in the stores. And I know a lot of respectable, sincere U2 fans love it.

But for me, and for whatever the reason, TUF is a bottom tier U2 track. Like bottom 15% U2 tier track.

Enola Gay.
