    I bought this album when it was first released. Didn’t know what to expect. I was mesmerized through the entire album. As I watch the reactions of you young people (I’m 60 by the way) I am tickled to death to see how the reactions are as fresh as I remember mine being. Music today doesn’t compare to the elaborate production and attention to detail that Jeff Lynne envisioned in his music. Your reaction is priceless my friend. Keep ‘Em coming.

    It’s hard to believe at times that most of your generation has not heard this wonderful music that we grew up with. We took for granted that it would always be there going forward but alas it is not. We had the best music in the 70’s and 80’s. Thanks for sharing.

    I really think this is the only pop song that approaches "Bohemian Rhapsody" in terms of operatic drama, complexity and variation with the same composition. Maybe "Nights in White Satin" and "Day in the Life," but it's a small sample size.

    That is a taste of why the album, Out of the Blue is a masterpiece. There were some other tunes from this album that tended to get more air time than Mr. Blue Sky, when the album was first released. But in the years since, the song was featured in a few movies and it renewed people's interest. It's as popular today than ever before. It was also voted the most happy or upbeat song of all time, I believe. And it is. It's very difficult to not have a smile on your face and to move along with the tempo during this tune. Simply put, Jeff is a genius.

    The 3rd side of Out of the Blue double album is perfection of what ELO was. The Concerto for a rainy day is perfectly produced, each song is unique yet part of a whole that is an emotional rollercoaster, culminating in one of the happiest song on the planet with Mr Blue Sky. You must do this album!! It's my favorite album of all time. Just a masterpiece!

    I am now 60 years old and ELO always was the greatest band of all time to me, even greater or at least as good as the Beatles and finally here is a young man recognizing the greatness of ELO. I exploded into tears again (as so often before) watching you, listening to this song. Thank you for another wonderfull moment with this music! By the way, there are quite many more songs from ELO, that would be worth listening to. Mr. Blue Sky is just one fantastic song in an ocean of ELO gems.
    How about Ticket to the moon oder Twenty first Century man oder Last train to London or steppin out or fire on high or tightrope or or or or.... I would higlhy apreciate you doing more from my favorite band. But thank you for this.

    I was blessed to see ELO perform live in Milwaukee, WI when this album first came out in 1978. An amazing concert complete with a state-of-the-art laser light show to complement their stage performance. Best concert I ever attended, just happened to be my very first at 17 years of age. Jeff Lynne is an absolute genius in the entertainment music industry.

    You were so mesmerized by the last instrumental part of the song that you didn’t recognize the “robotic voice” at the end (actually made with a vocoder) says “Please Turn Me Over”. Remember most of us when this was released had it as a double album so to hear side 4 we had to flip the album over on the record player

    @seansmith5826 8 месяцев назад +15

    ELO is so painfully underrated in the pantheon of rock and roll. So far ahead of the game. My guess as to why it wasn't more popular is due to disco being a thing during their most prolific moment in music.
    This song gives me a very Beatles-esque feel to begin with, and then blows me away with the arrangement and orchestration. Jeff Lynne is a musical genius, and any of his work is worthy of a reaction IMHO.

    Mr. Blue Sky should have done better on the charts, I agree, but it had a lot of worthy competition when it was released. It was an awesome time for a music loving teenager, like myself, to exist. Just a few of the singles also released in January 1978: "Le Freak" (Chic), "Reminiscing" (Little River Band), "Kiss You All Over" (Exile), and "Hopelessly Devoted to You" (Olivia Newton-John) from the blockbuster hit movie "Grease." The Moody Blues was ahead of ELO with their inclusion of orchestral music to their songs in the late 1960's. The Beatles also included orchestral sounds in some of their music, whom Jeff Lynne has a huge appreciation for. I am so glad you reacted to this!

    • @Scary__fun
      @Scary__fun 8 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, ELO were heavily influenced by The Beatles album Sgt. Pepper and the Lonely Hearts Club Band and The Beach Boys album Pet Sounds. Some other early symphonic rock songs are Nights In White Satin by The Moody Blue and A Whiter Shade of Pale by Procol Harum. Pink Floyd and Yes also progressed from there along with ELO.

    Mr Blue Sky takes me right back to being a young teenager. Life at home was pretty awful, so to escape the drama I ran a power cable from the house to the garden shed so I could play my records and escape the madness. Mr Blue Sky was played many, many times, and I still enjoy it to this day. I think the paper sleeve was blue sky and the single itself was also blue. Your reaction on hearing it is the same as mine was all those years ago. Really enjoying your reactions. Love from the UK.

    Im 58 now and grew up in a musical family on a diet of classical, big bands and jazz (thanks Mum and Dad). While this taught me to appreciate rich and subtle sounds, they were NOT fans of pop music and it was my uncle that introduced me to The Beatles and the Electric Light Orchestra as my path into modern sounds..
    I grew up listening to ELO almost non-stop (most pop music failed to match its intricacy) and I still love symphonic rock. Seeing someone experiencing ELO for the first time is simply joyous.

    This should be what a masterpiece is. It's so beautiful, so well built and thought out. Jeff is a genius.
    By the way, what a great and funny reaction! Thank you!

    Yes, this song is genius, and is one of my all-time favorites too! To answer your question about symphonic rock, there is the Moody Blues, particularly the album "Days of Future Passed," which was recorded with an orchestra, and which includes the huge hit, "Nights In White Satin." I think you've reacted to that, but you should check out that whole album too.

    Baby Groot is now my visual of this. BTW the four klangs is Bev hitting a wall mounted fire extinguisher with his drumstick.

    Thank you for taking my request after 12 months requesting it. This group.... I know you fell in love with.... were inspired by the Beatles and Yes. You might say this album is a tribute to The Beatles and the transitions are tribute to Yes who at the time were doing some really non-commercial incredible things in music with their songs and albums....ELO took the themes of Yes and The Beatles and put all that creativity in this album that was easy for minds of the listener to follow(unlike Yes) and made the lyrics very deep (like "Magical Mystery Tour" by The Beatles) which suggest a Cosmic Spiritual Psychedelic trip to the Stars and this concept album became a critically acclaimed No.1 album with several top ten Billboard hits. The composer/songwriter/arranger/producer of Jeff Lynn is genius!!! He is The Man. And back in the 70's He was The Man in the Age of Disco and Pop music...he was The Man. I have this album and play it at least 12 to 15 times a year....It stays playing for weeks on repeat on my stereo.Enjoy the ride, ELO are among the gods of Rock n' Roll and are one of my all-time favorite bands. Jeff Lynn is one of my all-time favorite composer/songwriter in music. Love him. Thanks again.

    My favorite ELO song! You think a little Beatles influenced? Earliest symphonic rock? Days of Future Passed by The Moody Blues.

    If you're having a less than perfect day, I defy you to listen to this song and tell me your day isn't just a little bit better. Even if just for the moment. 😁

    You need to do the entire "Out of The Blue" album. It's Jeff Lynne at the height of his writing and producing powers. One of the best double albums ever and, dare I say, the best produced.

    Got the album for my 16th birthday - what a rush. Loved it then and love it now. Holding the double album, choosing the record, sliding it out of the sleeve, flipping to the side, placing it on the deck, choosing the track and lowering the needle...... What a time
