    I like how all ELO songs sound very different yet very similar at the same time

    John Lennon and also Paul Mc Cartney once said that ELO is what the Beatles would have became if they had continued as a band into the 1970's and beyond. True words!

      I was trying to figure out what this song was after hearing it at the market. I'm dreadful at identifying artists, but I kept feeling like it was someone's idea of a Beatles song haha.

      I love Jeff Lynne, always have! My middle name is Lynn, and I used to say if I was married to him, my name would be Carrie Lynn Lynne. I still refer to him as...my husband Jeff Lynne! LOLOL

    I remember in the late 80s my dad got me and my brothers in his big old MK2 Granada and drove us from Dagenham to Tilbury to see his brother, our uncle George. We went in, he had a beautiful Boxer dog and had just recently bought a lovely powerful separates system. He played ELO songs. I fell in love with ELO at that time. I was around 8 years old. Little moments in our lives really shape us more than we realise

      @@cottoncandyjellybean8539 not all of it, that’s just the crappy pop music produced for money as part of the industry by people like Cardi B. I know everyone has their own opinions and tastes, but there are actually a lot of great songs from the 2000’s, it’s just not the ones you hear on the radio everyday.

    I've loved ELO with all my heart since I was like 6-7 (1996). I'm 30 still grooving on them. Dad made me appreciate them, he would always put them on in the car. that's how i got to know the best music ever. ELO, Dire Straits, KISS, The Travelling Wilburys..... I don't think I should mention bands like Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Deep Purple or Led Zeppelin.... Anyway..... All of a sudden, he passed away in March 2019 (stroke) while driving, well basically he was waiting for mum from the shops... at 54! imagine how she felt at the time when she saw him and thought he was kidding.. playing her for a fool.. he would do that sometimes :) ahhh... how much i miss him ... so does my mum... I'm not gonna stop listening to ELO. their music is not bringing me bad thoughts about how my life would've been different with my dad being alive. I usually blast ELO songs in the car. :)))) I AM HERE WITH YOU. LOVE YOU ALL. GREETINGS FROM RUSSIA
