Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Walking On The Milky Way Lyrics
When I was only seventeen
My head was full of brilliant dreams
My heart would call and I would gladly go
At twenty one the world was mine
And I was yours and you're divine
I don't believe in destiny
I don't believe in love
I don't believe that anything will ever be enough...
Man you should have seen us
On the way to Venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
So what do you say hey hey.
As time goes by reality
Destroys your hope and dignity
There's nothing left but shadows on the wall
But just remember who you are
And where you've been you've come so far
And never ever let them see you fall
I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in truth
I don't believe that anything can recreate your youth
Man you should have seen us
On the way to Venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey hey
Man you should have seen us
On the way to Venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey hey
Man it's you to seen us this way we runaway with you [x3]

I love the song and the video. The clip is full of signs and symbols. Each element has a meaning.
Genius 😍😍😍
Cracking song !! Heard for first time 2020
Kto słyszał 20.01.2020r. w Radiu Łódź ? Po 20 latach znalazłem ten kawalek, miałem tą melodię w głowie od 2002 roku 😁
This clip is great!
After along 10 years searching, finally find the name of this song !!
Love it !!
2020 y sigue sonando para mi mejor que en los 90s😍
You, Watching in 2020??
Reminds me of my parrot, Jodie!!
OH MY GOD! I FOUND MY FAVOURITE SONG FROM MY CHILDHOOD! I FIND THIS SONG 23 YEARS! THANK YOU!
The goosebumps..
The video is one of the most 90s things ever made.
So fucking beautiful and exciting.. Amazing..
it's fine
Brilliant song
This song touched me from the very first moment. One of my all time favorites. Awesome job OMD.
So, he finally found his rocket, but what about her? Her bridegroom? :`-(
The best britpop song
When I was only seventeen
My head was full of brilliant dreams
My heart would call and I would gladly go
At twenty one the world was mine
And I was yours and you're divine
And nothing else would matter to us so
I don't believe in destiny
I don't believe in love
I don't believe that anything
Will ever be enough
Man you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey ...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey hey ...
As time goes by reality
Destroys your hope and dignity
There's nothing left but shadows on the wall
But just remember who you are
And where you've been you've come so far
And never ever let them see you fall
I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in truth
I don't believe in anything
Can recreate your youth
Chorus:
Man you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey ...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey hey ...
Walking on the milky way.
Repeat Chorus
Man you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey ...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey hey ...
Walking on the milky way.
Still listening in 2019, what a truly brilliant song, lost classic of the 1990's.
Very beautiful song, very beautiful video clip.
its without comment /// thanks very much
One of best songs I ever heard.
Amazing song!
Meant as sn epitaph...thank God they ressurected
2019 and here I am, childhood, magic, I love this song
Good old Stanlow featured again
Such an uplifting song..sadly Music like this is no longer made
These guys made some amazing songs.
My friend walking on the milky way. R.I.P.😢
Brilliant song, just brilliant. Sad and happy at the same time. I will never forget this song. This is all about life and youth. This is what i call a true music with meaningful lyrics. The young generation of today can't understand it. It reminds me of my youth, my experiences, what u lost and found in life, people i knew. What a great time. Thank you God for everything :(
Italian Stallion aguante The Offspring...y con este tema de OMITD vuelvo a mi infancia 😄
Very sweet 😚
I love omd. Thats the first time ive heard it just now. Wow
"I don't believe in truth" - is that a true statement?
wow that brunnette girl is so gorgeous! whats her name
"All the young dudes" Part 2.
It doesn't sound anything like All The Young Dudes
@Exile On Main Street Similar chord progression on the verses. Very similar to Canon in D.
Can hear a vague similarity between Canon in D, yes... But nothing remotely similar to All The Young Dudes
Wow that was the Song for my first love ;-)
Enola Gay, Maid Of Orleans, Pandora's Box and Walking On The Milky Way are best songs of OMD. And OMD is one of the best music band.
I love this song, anyone know where it was filmed
Second best band name after "Me First and the Gimmy Gimmy's
Todavia emocionando en 2019...
Matko ile lat ja szukałam tej piosenki! I leci właśnie w radio.
Besides the music, I also really like the used colours in this music video! Quite nostalgic.
The colouring is super mid 90s. This whole music video is kind of a distillation of that era.
OMG I so love this song OMD... thumping the desk in happiness Andy
I am crying....at 40. A lot people dead...my parents...how free and careless we are when young...memories of youth haunt me....
chin up mate, keep the memories in your heart, godbless your parents.
I'm 32 and cherish every day my parents are still here.
@Danny Dorko bless you!
This is brilliant music!! Better than many mainstream acts today.
Excelente la canción y el video...OMD no deja de sorprenderme con su música.
Love omd, love this song, and I love this video ❤️
it's the best song I've ever heard in my life, THANK YOU /// OMD
supr nemá to chybu kdy by s vrátila ta doba tak je to fajn..........1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111
Aaah. Memories of Christmas 1995 I think..? X
August 1996 this came out
Mucha nostalgia
Personal feelings of this track. Finished school year 11 . It was touching . The world has forgotten this track
My favourite song ever, thanks 4 made it
anyone knows the name of the woman who sings at the end of the video?
Hannah Clive
Come onnnnn its omd.
Abril 2019!!!
Shivers just remembering seeing it on TV back in 1996
Good ol' memories
Кто эта девушка в клипе? нигде нет информации об этом.
Absolutely love the fact that Andy McCluskey still bounces about the stage like he's 17 when OMD play live
En 1996, aún quedaba en los seres humanos la chispa de la sensibilidad espiritual para crear hermosas melodías.
I used to listen to this song on the radio when i was teenager and i loved it Didn't know the song name or the band name. It has been 19 years since then. And finally i just found it randomly in spotify.. What a Lucky Day!
When you're feeling rough and down in the dumps...out comes this little nugget from the 90's. Absolutely wonderful.
Sangat berkesan dan ingat masa muda lalu.. zaman2 kuliah 1998
OMD the best production..
I think it's ace and only heard it for the first time last week. Can't stop listening now and I'm 33
The days of youth won't come back, but you have to continue making your live and having fun whatever age you are. That's the only way you won't fall in nostalgia. You won't be younger than you are today ;)
Yes! so true! 👍
Freakinnnn awesome!!!
Oooh anoother song that I thought was happy, chilled and free. Now I know the lyrics and the true meaning.
It is more sad, but so much more beautiful :) I love 'old' music and I'm happy i live in these days, when I can listen to all 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s music, as it's alredy been created ;) whenever I want <3
I'm glad, You like all this Great music, too. 👍.💫.😃
Jeeeze I'd forgotten this!
Brilliant song video filmed in Southend and Canvey?
Best song, makes me feel alive again, love OMD!!!!!
Funnily this video has the imagery of the mid-80s but as the quality of cameras in the 90s already improved heavily, this video looks a bit bizarre. Great images and music anyway.
Too true,wild youth,can remember some of it,. Gid days . Nothing last forever! Bro!🤗☠☠☠👽☠
Played at my son's funeral he was 18yrs old and this song he played all the time a omd fan like his mum I break down in tears ever time I hear this so reminds me of my baby x
I am sorry for Your loss ... all the best! 👆
A mother should never bury her son.
Notre Coldplay mais des "80"...😉👍👏👏
I don't know who the woman in the video is, but the backing vocals are sung by the fabulous Carol Decker from t'pau
I think the backing vocals were sung by Hannah Clive.
Listening to this just 'recreated my youth'.... i believe this song can 'recreate your youth' ;)
love this song
Oh let’s make everyone feel old...this song is nearly 22 years old !!! 🤫
La sutileza de muchas pistas noventeras son incomparables, volver a oírlas me lleva a un viaje lleno de placer!! Vivan los 90’s 👏😄
Best thing to come out of jerkenhead. Haha. Love omd
esta musica me recuerda 1996 Noviembre de ese año...jose de paraguay...temaso
I cry in my heart every time I listen to this song, my mouth can't say anything.
The memories.
Miss the 90s
This really is a wonderful song and great video,been a fan for over 30 odd years and this really is one of the best tracks for me..LOVE IT 👌
A rip off of all the young dudes , but I like it
It doesn't sound anything like All The Young Dudes!
commercials for milky way :D well done
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁
Beautiful song
4.7.18 Munich.... IT was great
This song always reminds me of Eing in my mates dad's boot at 16 going to a party....it meant so much! lol
I love this song (although it's about disappointment with life) and the video is just amazing. So many meanings to discover and think about...
This Song is from 1996. Taken from the Album Universal Walking on the Milky Way is also my Favorite Song. Thank you for the best Music during my Childhood and Youth Orchestral Maneuvres In The Dark! You are the best. Greetings from Germany.
