Plans for a possible new OMD single release next year are underway. Sister Marie Says (originally titled Sister Maria Gabriel) is one of the songs scheduled for the OMD Unreleased Material album which itself is due for release next year.

Plans for an album of previously Unreleased OMD Material have been discussed for the past few years. The as-yet untitled album grew from an original plan to include previously unheard OMD songs on Navigation - The OMD B-Sides album.

Below is a partial list of some of the songs that were put forward for inclusion on the original version of Navigation and that will be contenders for the Unreleased Material album:

  • Sister Maria Gabriel - a track originally considered for inclusion on Universal but dropped, ironically, for being as Andy described it "too much like OMD". 
  • Kiss Of Death - a bittersweet slice of pop that came very close to being included on the 1993 Liberator album.
  • Thank You - Another Universal demo that Andy describes as having a "metal" sound in the tradition of bands such as Led Zepplin(!). Epic in the style of Native Daughters Of The Golden West from the Crush album.
