    For the second time on the channel, we are checking out Electric Light Orchestra with their song "Mr. Blue Sky." This was such an amazing song with so many epic musical moments! I loved the composition of this tune with the strings, counter melodies, and overall arrangement. This band is so unique and continues to amaze me every time I hear them! Hope you enjoy! #reaction #electriclightorchestra #elo #mrbluesky #70smusic #musicreactions

    This song is the end of a multi part suite called Concerto For A Rainy Day, which is why the end is so different. It's the coda of the suite. Jeff Lynne is one of the greatest musical geniuses of our time! You should check out Turn To Stone, Don't Bring Me Down, I'm Alive, Ma Ma Ma Belle, or their version of Rollover Beethoven. Those are just some of my favorites, but you can't go wrong with anything from their New World Record Album! It's got Telephone Line, Do Ya, and Rockaria! That whole album is amazing, as well as the Out of the Blue album, which is where this song comes from. They have so many great songs. I forgot to mention Can't Get It Out of My Head, Strange Magic, Livin' Thing, Sweet Talkin' Woman, and Evil Woman. I'm sure I'm forgetting some, but like I said, they had so many great songs, especially in the 70's!

    I am a MASSIVE fan of ELO!!! My sister saw them live in concert in the 70's but I was a little too young to go. I used to listen to her albums and they also had so much airplay it was just incredible!!! I soon fell in love with their music and have been ever since!! They are definitely wonderfully gifted musicians and singer/songwriters and some of my fav songs from all of their albums are "Mister Blue Sky", "Telephone Line", "Midnight Blue" is one of my all time favs! "Evil Woman", "Don't Bring Me Down", "Last Train to London", "Livin' Thing", "Turn to Stone", "Showdown", "Can't Get it Out of My Head", "Strange Magic" is another one of my fav's as well as "Livin' Thing"! "Need Her Love", "Twilight", "On the Run", "Wishing", "Magic", "Alright", "Just for Love", "One Summer Dream" and on and on and on!! An excellent more recent live performance you can see on RUclips is the Zoom Tour Live and it's PHENOMENAL!!!!

    Mr Blue Sky was made with a 30 piece orchestra and a 20 person vocal section, Jeff Lynne and his 6 band members.The song Mr Blue Sky features a heavily vocoded voice singing the phrase "Mr. Blue Sky". A second vocoded segment at the end of the song was often interpreted by listeners as "Mr. Blue Sky"; it is actually "Please turn me over" as it is the end of side three, and the listener is being instructed to flip the LP over. This was confirmed by Jeff Lynne on 3 October 2012 on The One Show.

    ELO has a deep catalog, and it's safe to say if you like one of their songs you'll like all of them. They have such a distinct sound, and Jeff Lynn is a genius producer/musician. There are lots of good suggestions for next tracks in the comments here, but I'll throw in Fire On High; it's almost all instrumental with an absolutely wicked guitar.

    My oldest boy is an old soul like yourself. He is 20 now and every since he was a child. The Music of these older bands have appealed to him. In first grade he did a book report on John Lennon. His teacher was so baffled he got an A+++ as for ELO this is his favorite band of all time and we are going to see them next week at the Boston Garden. They have not come to Boston in over 40 years and this will be the last time they tour. You can hear the later years of the Beatles wall of sound era which is why the surviving Beatles had Jeff Lynne produce John Lennon's unfinished demos and made them new Beatles songs in 1995. Try to decipher through that word salad Steven. I cannot wait to see them myself. Everything you hear with the big orchestration they is executed in all of their live performances. Naturally there are not many original members left, but all the stuff runs through the creator Jeff Lynne. Not only an elite composer but engineer and producer as well. Jeff was also one of the Traveling Wilbury;s Supergroup of George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison. & Tom Petty in the late 80's

I hate sounding like that get off my lawn old guy, but have you listened to today’s music over the last 10-15 years? There is nothing organic about the large majority of it. No successful artist today especially the solo artists are not writing their own material & Bands of today? your lucky if they are even playing thier instruments for real or singers not using back tracks or lip syncing. I cannot name a new band out today that I can picture being around in 20 years or standing the test of time. You’re old enough to remember what it was like that buying a new album or CD was a physical event. You looked at the art work, you read the linear notes and you had MTV. Consuming music today is just lazy as are most of the new performers. Lady Gaga and Pink are the last Mohegan’s of pure talent as for bands. I think Twenty One Pilots are legit.

    Jeff Lynne (who comes from home City of Birmingham, UK) and is a great musician and producer. E.L.O. have loads of great songs and my favourite is 'All Over The World'. They sounded just as good (if not better) live than they did on the studio versions. Jeff was still singing at concerts just before the pandemic started. He is now doing his last tour at the age of nearly 77. He was also part of the super group 'Traveling Wilburys' with George Harrison (The Beatles), Roy Orbison, Tom Petty and Bob Dylan.

    The “gong” you can hear is actually Bev hitting a fire extinguisher….

    The drummer Bev Bevan struck the side of a fire extinguisher, to get the clang-clang-clang-clang at the end of verses, and other key points. So hitting the gong is just playback on the wrong instrument. The video had a lot of people fooled at the end. The letters showed 'mister blue sky', but the vocoder vocal actually says: 'please turn me over', since it was the end of side 3 of the vinyl album or the end of side A of the single.

    That whole side, Concerto For A Rainy Day, was based on Jeffs time, i think in Switzerland, trying to write some new songs. It had been rainy weather until Mr. Blue Sky cane out.

    Jeff and the band went to this Swiss chalet to write a follow up to A New World Record. The weather was dark, rainy and gloomy. Then one day the Sun Suddenly Shone and it was “Wow, look at those beautiful Alps” and he wrote Mr Blue Sky.

    Seton Hill Studios: I’ve been listening to (and loving) the music of Jeff Lynne & Bev Bevan (drummer) since they were in the band ‘The Move’ with bassist Roy Wood. (They did the original versions of “Do Ya” & “California Man”. Both of which have been covered by many artists.) ELO first got really noticed when Marc Bolan (T.Rex) played guitar on their song “Ma Ma Ma Bell” in 1974. Their strings are what make them so wonderful. I NEVER get tired of the original ELO. Perfect combination of classical & rock. “RockAria” was a huge hit for them and the song I’d suggest next. It’s simply perfect!

    I was about to say it's great you have checked out possibly the best feel-good song in the world, but you already said it sound like the happiest song in the world.
    I remember hearing this song and Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody as a child in the mid to to late 70's, and back then, they were my two favourite songs to listen to on the radio. The orchestral parts and the harmonies were really fun to listen to. Hearing these now take me back to a 4 year old.
    Check out Evil Woman, Livin' Thing or Telephone Line

    An enthusiastic reaction to an all time classic, thank you. ELO provided many brilliant songs, suggest you try 10538 Overture, an early song, sit back, shut your eyes, and you think you are listening to the Beatles, but IMO, something much better.
