Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys make up Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, who were responsible for some of the catchiest and brightest synth pop that the ’80s had to offer.

It’s hard to believe, but prior to the 2003 release of The Definitive Collection, there wasn’t a proper hits collection in Lionel Richie’s catalog.
