❤❤❤Jeff Lynne's ELO will be on Tour this Summer and Fall of 2024 for 32 concerts in North American cities. It's on my bucket list... I already bought my tickets for New York and Toronto.❤❤❤
Just stop it with the stupid underrated/underappreciated comments on bands that are internationally recognised and famous. ELO have sold more than 50 million records worldwide, they are one of the biggest selling bands in music history. They've had 27 top 40 hits in the UK, 15 in USA, and they're inductees of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. You might have just discovered them, but they've been recognised as a superbly talented and successful group since 1970, and have never been underrated.

@@hmackie6823 l am sure that Jeff and the Beatles would have got on quite well. He had George to introduce him and am sure that Paul & John's inquisitiveness would have been peaked by a studio maestro. All being as driven as they were, there is a real possibility they would have pushed each other to bigger and better things.
I just came across this song. It brought back so many memories. I was 17ish. My mom and I danced to this song in our living room. She taught me some 60 moves I think. I just remember how much fun we had and every time it came on we would dance. Of course we always got strange looks from my brother. But, today him and his wife have fun going out for a night of dancing 🥰
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day…Stay Safe!
Divine ELO. I have the entire discography from them. And I danced to this song at a high school competition and won. Božské ELO. Od nich mám celou diskografii. A na tuhle skladbu jsem tančil na soutěži na střední a vyhrál jsem.

This song was very popular in 1983. I had my last summer holiday from navigational college. I went on holiday with my girlfriend, took the ferry from the Faroes to Scotland and drove down the UK to Dover over to France, proceded to Paris and then up to Denmark and on the ferry back to the Faroes, 5 weeks holiday. In December that year I graduated as a master mariner, and exactly two years after our stop in Liverpool, I took my first command on a chemical tanker in Stanlow, 4th July 1985. Now I am a bureaucrat in the City of London, fast approaching retirement, when I move back to the Faroes. When we came to Scotland in 1983 Moonlight Shadow with Maggie Reilly was the great hit, but as we drove on this song became the big hit. 24th May we celebrate our 36 years wedding anneversary. One week later my wife turns 60, an event we celebrate in Benidorm.

The first time I ever heard this song was in the summer of 1985 when Rock and Roll Express debuted for the NWA and won the tag team titles. From that week and every week thereafter, the fans would explode every time that song would hit. Priceless memories of simpler days!
At 80 years old I lived through the birth of rock & roll and in the 50s we danced this way. No one dances today; they just wiggle like they're having a seizure!!
From 1972 to 1986, ELO accumulated more combined UK and US Top 40 hits than any other band in the world, and also generated the third most UK and US separate Top 40 hits.
Your numbers are all wrong. Xanadu charted at no. 1 in the US and UK...Don't Bring Me Down charted at no. 3 in the UK and no. 4 in the US....The album Discovery charted at no. 1 in the UK...Just a few examples...You can find all the correct info on Wikipedia and Google among others...
@@MusicLover10538 My numbers are from Wikipedia. In the U.S., "Xanadu" peaked at #8. Not #1. ELO never topped the U. S. singles chart, with or without Olivia Newton-John.
idk why rock and roll is not in the top now days. Because if anybody of any kind hears authentical rock and roll tunes everybody is gonna twist and dance
Rock and Roll IS King! My favorite from ELO. Just love the song and the beat.I'm just an old rock and roller! Can't help it! Too old to change now! Thank you ELO!!
Real masterpieces never get to old. Even if will be listen rock'n'roll in 100 years from now, still will be like a dance nuclear blast. Greetings from Poland. :)
Re-watching those old NWA wrestling shows here with this music playing when the R & R Express comes out and the fans go insane still gives me goosebumps.
Still remember being a kid at the Norfolk Scope and the eruption of The Rock N Roll Express coming out to this. The true golden age of professional wrestling and my childhood. To go back in my mesmerizes of those days, so much simpler.
ALWAYS loved this song and remember like it was yesterday when it was released. Just makes you want to get up and dance your ass off! Used to be able to dance like they do in the video...but not any more. I had the pleasure of seeing ELO in concert in the summer of 2019--Jeff Lynn is a class act and ELO will live on forever.
The gifted Jeff Lynn,great memories of the early eightees,greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪
Rock n' roll Is King. FOREVER. 😍🧡
Jeff Linn FOREVER!!!!!!!!
It's been dead over 30 years.
Someone posted earlier that Jeff Lynne should be appointed King Of Music. He has my vote for that and several other things.❤
I was born on 1-15-1984 and here I am on 1-15-2024 listening to this amazing song!
I was born on 1951 and I'm listening too...

Oui, c'est toujours aussi bon !!
One of the gsreatest talent in rock
Hi 🇮🇪 Ireland from 🏴 Scotland
Love them when they came out.im 63 years old,and still listen to them
ELO is one of the best and most under-appreciated/underrated bands ever. I love their music so much. Reminds me of the good 'ol days.
There definitely not underated.
?
How are they "underrated"? They have had a perfectly solid share of fame and success and made history forever.

Лучшие времена в музыкальном мире. Время, когда музыка была живой и была написана для людей.
Słucham od wielu,wielu lat.Będę słuchać do mojego końca😊
Ja tak samo a potem śmierć i sąd ostateczny
Atomic music.100000% energy😊
As my wife said when she first heard the song: "Sounds like the Beatles singing to Elvis Presley's music". Just opened ELO for myself
I agree, with some Little Richard thrown in for good measure....
that was my first reaction it sounded like beatles especially that part with "that's how it's meant to beeee!"

Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson, The Rock N Roll Express is the first thing that comes to mind when hearing this song.
Yes! The crowd went crazy when this music started.
Right on!
Villanovafan73 god I remember those days
YOU WIN!!!!! Sorry this is 4 years late. Just now saw this
The crowd at any arena was going off when this song played.
In the 80's, the Rock and Roll Express were so over in the Carolinas and this song played a role in that.
One of my favorite tag teams
top 3 teams for me. Along with LOD & the High Flyers
Wonder if Mr.Lynn knows how the wrestling business impacted sales of the song?
so much better than today's music
Я обожаю эту группу! Я из СССР и молодость моя проходила под песни ELO.
Что, братуха, тоже на "копчёное" потянуло? Решил втихаря молодость вспомнить? Одобряю! Сам такой же
Best. Song. EVER

One of the greatest songs ever, ever.
As an old school wrestling fan this brings back memories.Rock and Roll Express 4ever💯💯‼️👍🏾
Me too!!!!!
This is my favorite ELO song by far and none of the radio stations play it! I haven't heard this on the radio since the 80's.
I'm a king when I'm listening to Electric Light Orchestra. Thank you ELO!
O taip..Super gabalas!!
King Of The Universe
Now that's music, rhythm and musicians. Very different from the garbage we have today. Good ELO times.
Congratulations boys!! Inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2017!! It's about time! Well deserved!
As well as the RnR in the WWE Hall, double bonus.
By my reckoning it's about two decades after the group was eligible. And several members who contributed over a period of years weren't included.
Huzzah!!
I didn't know they were inducted but ELO is my favorite band and I was very happy to read your comment - they deserved to be inducted decades ago!
MGB I always associate this song with the Rock n Roll Express! 👍
Spent many years with this music and thank You for every minute of it. You rock.
i'll listen to this 50 times every morning before i go to work... ROCK ON ! LOL !
You must get up really early...
you start listening it about 2,5 hour before going to work?
He must take long showers! LOL
What ? You don't listen to "Hold on tight" just once ?
your not the only 1.........proper music
How does anyone listen to this and NOT dance?! Love it.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day…Stay Safe

Same here. Whenever I hear this song, I think of Mid-South Wrestling and the Rock & Roll Express from the early 80's.
And both going in the Hall (R/R, WWE), well deserved for both.
