Oberkorn (Luxembourgish: Uewerkuer) is a town in the commune of Differdange in south-western Luxembourg. As of 2005[update], the town has a population of 4,493. In 1982, Depeche Mode released a song (a B-side of their single "The Meaning of Love") called "Oberkorn, it's a small town", which refers to the town. In addition, Depeche Mode also used the Oberkorn song as a prelude to the My Secret Garden song from the A Broken Frame album when recorded live at the Hammersmith Odeon, now named HMV Hammersmith Apollo.
The famous Spanish techno group OBK, from the song by Depeche Mode, also makes an indirect reference to the town.
