ELO was not only really good at creating great music they were SO unique. One of my favorite childhood bands during the 70's.
Not was, is. The guy is still touring, and his audience is like me, over 60. Look up his "Evil Woman" video and check out all the old foagies dancing to it in the audience.
@@uberduberdave Hey, I resemble that remark. They were sort of like Chicago with all the brass.
They were and even now are huge!
nobody sounds like them....not close. Such a unique amazing band. My favorite band ever
They’re unique…….
Jeff Lynne is a musical genius!
So is Mik Kaminski
If I could like your comment 100 times I would!!
He’s a genius for being able to mix with great people for a bloke with no ability.
Absolutely.
Facts.
As a child of the 70’s and a teenager in the 80’s I feel so blessed to grow up listening to incredible music that has stood the test of time and blow away the majority of music being made now
todays music is crap compared to other generations
So true - the seventies were pivotal for music - a decade that defined music !!!! Liked the 80's as well - great music!!!. We were so lucky✌❤
I was born in 66 and feel the same way
@@crockwell1966 Born in 64. I'm so with you 🤗
@@crockwell1966 Same.
Can't get it out of my head is a beautiful ELO song
Eldorado Overture/Can't Get It Out of My Head
Yes please 🤗
Telephone line. I was a little guy, but was drawn into that song. I knew this is different.
This one is so haunting and beautiful!
Yes, yes, and definitely yes, please guys, react to Can't Get it Out of My Head. 😍 You haven't heard the best of ELO yet!
Jeff Lynne is an absolute treasure... What an amazing talent... He has had an enormous influence on music , most people are completely unaware of how much he alone, has effected, changed and shaped modern music as well as past decades of music.... It's truly mind blowing..
I don't think there is any disputing the fact that ELO's "Livin' Thing" is one of their BEST songs!! ❤
Yes I agree, but there are so many great songs on this album like 'Tightrope' and 'Telephone Line' (which was only the last single from this album). For me this 'New Record Album" was their best achievement.
❤minor correction: ELO’s “Livin’ Thing” is one of THE best songs of all time, ❤
It is their very best!!!!!!
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "Telephone Line" and "Fire On High"!!
Fire on High may be their very best song of all time! Bev Beven on the backtracking is amazing...along with is drumming 😉
Telephone line??? Wtf… what garbage
Telephone Line is absolute masterpiece objectively. Fire On High not so much, but good too.
@@paulgauguin7730 oh please.. it’s a try hard trying to be a mix between the Beatles and the Bee Gees.
@@andrewwhite2431 Not really. Jeff Lynn never "tries hard," as a genius he makes it easy. What's more, he just as easily surpasses them both.
The string players were NOT session musicians, they were ALL permanent members of the ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA!!!!!
FYI, the plucking is called "pizzicato". In this case, I consider it a masterful way of bridging rock and classical. Love love LOVE this!!!!!
I can't believe I never picked up on the pizz as many times as I've heard this song. I don't know what else I could've thought that was.
Not sure if y’all have done “turn to stone” yet but that song rocks
Yes you guys please consider also turned to stone and all over the world
Agree
@@trudieristich795 "Strange Magic" and the instrumental "Fire On High."
The Live at Wembley is outstanding!
Yup. I keep going back to that one. Pretty much my favorite ELO song. And that's sayin' something!
The first time I heard this song, I was 16, out at McDonalds with my friend and this song came on the radio. We jumped into the car, rolled down the windows, & started driving with this blaring. It was a song that had to be enjoyed with the wind on our faces!😊
What I loved so much about ELO is that their sound was so different. Definitely one of my favorite bands from the 70's.
One of my faves by ELO!! My era!! You kids have a lot more to hear, Level 42 Something about you is fire!!! Big fan!!
Wow, Level 42....there’s a deep cut
Something about you...... they'd definitely love it
Level 42!
Love me some Level 42! Though Lessons in Love is my favorite of theirs.
@@pacebrison1453 Those are tied for my #1 favourite. I can't make a final decision and, luckily, I don't need to! Lessons in Love, so much bass!
E. L. O. - Can't Get It Outta My Head 70s Soft Rock Orchestra Style that only this group could ever bring us back in the early years of the 70s
Next three ELO songs: "Turn to Stone" "Rockaria" and the full eight-minute version of "Roll Over Beethoven" In the latter case, there are multiple transitions and killer solos.
someone has said they've done "Turn to Stone" already do you see it on your search results?
@@KarlKraus1 Others have done it, but they haven't yet. It's not listed among the many songs they have done.
@@bradsullivan2495 exactly I think a bot or something was talking to me because "his" findings are an outlier if you understand me that "person" is the only one that's saying they've done the song so... I'm not crazy lol 😆
Yes yes and yes!!!!!
"Rockaria" - absolute YES - and "Can't Get it Out of My Head."
I’m 62 years old and have been to many concerts in my life, I have to say ELO was by far the best. Showed up with a full orchestra on stage and sounded great, you would have thought you were listening to the studio recordings. Being dead center in the 11th row was sublime!
I think that was ELO2. They toured with an orchestra. Sadly only had a few original members. No Jeff!
@@DaveInBridport correct, it was about 3 years ago. Toured as Jeff Lynne's ELO.
From the 1976 album A New World Record, Jeff Lynne wrote this tune about suffering the loss of a love. From the Spanish orchestral beginning, it rocks on into a masterpiece. The beautiful strings throughout make an enjoyable setting for a great tune. Patti Quatro does the vocals, uncredited, during the "higher and higher" part. Such a great song. Great reaction. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️❤️ 🇨🇦 🇨🇦
oh no,not the buckets of maple syrup again......get a life
The song "Telephone Line", the studio version, off of the album "A New World Record," is perfection!
This song reminds me of being in the car with my dad when I was little. He sang this sooooo off-key (like he did every song ever made) and it would crack me up.
When my kids were little, they'd put their hands over my mouth when I tried to sing. You'd think they were music critics. :-)
@@richardjones4662 😂
When ELO brought the orchestra into rock music, we had never heard anything like it. It made us feel like we never had, either. Just joyous music that is great to sing along with.
I have my older brother to thank for turning me on to ELO, Billy Joel, Elton, Stevie Wonder, The Doors, Gap Band….and on and on in the 70s and early 80s.
What a magical group ELO was, so unique, so different. Loved this band always felt there was a Beatles vibe going on.
That is because they do have a tie to the Beatles!! Jeff worked with Apple and was there at the roof top concert with the Beatles, also in the Traveling Wilburies (sp) with George Harrison and other legends!!
@@jameskearney4100 I knew about the Wilburys, had no idea he was at the roof top concert! The more you know! Thanks! 👍
@@Chris.Davis.2 Jeff also produced the song When we was Fab.
@@jameskearney4100 What's your source for the Apple/rooftop information? I've never heard that, and a quick search isn't finding anything.
Not saying it isn't true; just wondering.
The bow moves that Jay mentioned are:
Legato - normal smooth now movements
Spiccato - short detached strokes with a bouncing bow
Pizzicato - plucking the string instead of bowing
I played the viola (similar to the violin but slightly bigger and lower notes) growing up and still love orchestral instruments.
Jeff Lynne would have to be one of the most innovative musicians in history! What a superstar!
Awesome song. My favorite part of the song is the transition between the verses and the chorus. “And you and your sweet desire
(Don't you do it, don't you do it)
You took me
Oh, higher and higher, baby” and the music just places a smile on my face.
Absolutely 🙂
ELO is one of the best musical groups ever, Jeff is an absolute genius. He has worked with so many musicians, & his “Traveling Wilbury’s” contributions were great as well. Y’all did this & keep ‘‘em coming!
Not a single Bad Song. Saw them in 1978 Out of the Blue Concert & Jeff Lynne's ELO 2018. JUST FANTASTIC Jeff is a Genius he plays about 11 different instruments. Turn to Stone, is Fabulous, 🔥🥰. Everything they did was awe inspiring.
If you saw ELO in August 1978 in Indianapolis, Indiana, we were in the same stadium. That was a fantastic concert.
ELO never disappoints!! Great reaction ❤️
If someone ever asks me which artist I would like to be, Jeff Lynne would be the answer. The immense musical talent he has! He can sing and can play several instruments. He is a songwriter and a producer for his own band as well as for other artists. The list of people he worked with is awesome. And with all that he stays humble and he is funny & I like his Brummie accent. ;)
Jeff Lynne= genius. This song lifts you to the clouds. Go to space every time since it came out in the 70s. Still played heavily on classic rock stations!
I made mixed tapes back in the day. I had a cassette player, set by the radio, waited for the song I wanted to record. Then push record and waited to stop it recording before the commercials came on. It was a pain. But it was great. Wouldn't of traded it for anything. Another great Old school tune.... BYE BYE MISS AMERICAN PIE.
No mistaking ELO for any other group, Amazing rock symphonies.
ELO I see one of my favorites for sure!!!!! I saw them live in 1981… Wow!!! It’s been 41 years….. omg 😳… I was a mere 13 year old… love ❤️ this band. Check out “Can’t get it out of my head “… probably my favorite ELO song…
Saw them in the 70s and then saw them a couple years ago in Philly. Still awesome!
If you haven't done Telephone Line or Evil Woman yet, do the live ones at Wembley Stadium. It's great watching the crowd interact. You'll love it. Great reaction ❤️
I second that… Telephone Line especially live at Wembley Stadium 🎶
Turn to Stone it's another great song by ELO!
Definitely need Turn to stone!!👍
Welcome aboard, youngsters! After hearing E.L.O. back in 1976, I became a dedicated fan and follower. Seeing E.L.O. live in concert, is a wonderful experience.
A NEW WORLD RECORD. A classic album !!!!!
Agree! It was the first album I ever bought with my own money. I was something like 9 years old when it came out and I still play it today.
Yep all killer, no filler. Every track a hit.
ELO is one of the greatest bands ever.
...and produced one of the best soundtracks of all time..."XANADU"!!
Jeff lyn has over a hundred different instruments in his house and can play them all, his house is also used as a studio he has gold and platinum records all around the place. He has written so many songs for other singers. He's great, thank you. 🇬🇧 🌹
Just to let you know Jeff Lynne was a good friend of George Harrison. He played at the studio with him
You are going to notice Beatles’s music influence upon Electric Light Orchestra.
Tightrope, Telephone Line & Rockaria! are bangers that lead off A New World Record, which is one of my fave albums.
Also ELO's 8 min cover of Roll Over Bethoven on ELO II is THE best version for sure 🤘
Never forget...the sounds of ELO wouldn't be the same without Kelly Groucutt on vocals as well. RIP Kelly Groucutt.
The original band members here.. And yes, those are cellos. I saw the violinist play that same blue violin at one of their concerts back in 1977 at the Cow Palace in South San Francisco. One of the best concerts I've ever been to, topped off with a laser light show off and on during the performance..
gotta share this. In 1977 my wife was pregnant with our first child "a boy" who is now 44. at the time i had just bought ELO " Out of the blue" double cassette tape.We played it cranked up as kids would do with great speakers. every time the baby would start moving around. to this day ELO is still one of his all time favorites.
ELO was a huge part of the soundtrack of the '70's! They are everywhere!!
Love , love, love ELO!!! 💕🕯️🌞👏👋
Many amazing songs of theirs! Truly wonderful! Mr. Blue Sky.... Evil woman.... Sweet talkin' woman, list goes goes on n on!!💕
fyi, they've reacted to those three songs. Great songs!
@@surlechapeau 🌞🕯️ 💕 👏 Oh Wonderful!! They know what's incredible! I'll look up their reactions! ELO is on my fav bands list for certain!!
Listening to this song and I remember when I was around 11 years old I walked into Record Bar to buy the 7 inch Single Vinyl with my Parents who have both gone on. Its my 61st Birthday and they past their love for the best Music onto me with precoius memories of them together. They fell in love with those Orchestrations and this song had just been released and was on the Top 10 in the 1970s. WOW
Out of many great songs; this is one of their very best! Check out "Calling America," "Nightrider," "Hold on Tight," Boy Blue," and "Getting to the Point."
This played this song a hell of a lot in the mid-1970s. Loved it! I was so lucky to be born when I did.
The plucking technique is called "pizzicato," which comes from the Italian word "pizzicare" which means to pinch. BTW, check out ELO's cover of "Roll Over, Beethoven," it COOKS!
Jeff Lynn, Brummie extraordinair.God bless him!!! A creative genius,great performer, producer and arranger. I forget which one of the Beatles said that Elo were the band the Beatles would have become if they'd stayed together. But they meld classical, Pop and rock in such a seemless way. They're a sublime stadium band too.Mr Blue Sky probably their most famous track and is brilliant effort, but Livin thing is my particular favourite. It showcases their unique sound so well.
This song hit my 15 year old ears perfectly when it came out. A truly brilliant piece of music by a brilliant artist.
Always loved the ELO songs from Xanadu. I know it was a young people movie, but what they contributed to the. Soundtrack was great.
"Fire on High," "Boy Blue," "Can't Get It Out Of My Head" are all EPIC ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA tunes to check out! Rock you, you two!!
SORRY about your Bengals. As a die-hard 49ers fan, I can relate this year. Tough games in totally different ways.
It's important to understand that when Jeff Lynne split from Roy Wood to form ELO, it was due mainly to what The Beatles were doing in 1967-1968! Lynne was heavily influenced by that sound of a few strings blending with rock and roll ("Strawberry Fields Forever", "I Am The Walrus", "All You Need Is Love", "Hello-Goodbye", etc ..) and simply took it a step further by integrating the sound of classical strings into rock and roll as THE sound of the Electric Light Orchestra! Lynne is a musical genius who doesn't get the accolades he is so richly deservant of! He is every bit as gifted as Lennon and McCartney!
Must see "Telephone Line'' live in Wembley 2017. Jeff Lynne, singer and headman of ELO was in the Travelling Wilburys if you look back on your video reactions
These guys had such a unique sound - a real trip back to the '70s. It's no wonder Jeff was included in the supergroup Traveling Wilburys.
Jeff lynne is the GOAT when it comes to producing and writing music. He wrote songs for the biggest bands/musicians in history! He is a genius HANDS DOWN....
When I was a kid in the 70's just learning about music and appreciating music for the first time, this is the very first song I ever listened to and have been hooked ever since. Another great one of their is Shangri-La
Jeff Lynne is a musical genius. He's the best and he's what makes ELO such an incredible group my favorite British band of the early 1970' to early 1980's.
John Lennon called ELO the 'Sons of the Beatles.'
Wow! Just did a quick search...RSR has done a lot of ELO! With "Livin' Thing" you have hit all my ELO favorites... "Strange Magic," "Mr Blue Sky," "Last Train to London" but you still have "Telephone Line" to look forward to!
"Can't Get It Out of My Head" is my favorite ELO song. It is definitely one that does just what the title says. Anytime I hear it, it hangs out in my brain the rest of the day!
In 1978, ELO did a live concert tour in Japan. It was a sold-out show, but my friends went and saw ELO. Forty some years later, we all still love ELO. They are still popular in Japan. It would be best if you watched ELO concert in the UK in 2018. I love them.
I am from the 70's and love 70's music. ELO was in my top 3 bands from that era! Livin' Thing was in my top 3 songs from ELO!
Now you see why singer and songwriter Jeff Lynne is in the Traveling Wilburys with so many other iconic musicians.
One of their GREAT songs is 'Starlight'. Not a chart hit I don't think but I love it... like floating on the water in a dinghy.
Give it a listen - MAGIC
Jeff Lynn created a sound that could never be re-created. An absolute genius.
Check them out live at Wembley stadium. Amazing performance there!
Yes, you noticed the two techniques of playing orchestral stringed instruments.
Bowing......stroking the bow across the strings.
Pizzicato......plucking the strings with the fingers.
You'll also notice the string glissandos beginning at 4:57 are played with 32nd notes which gives a Vivaldi-esque¹ feel to the piece which heretofore, had been quite content with half, quarter and eighth notes.
¹ Vivaldi was known for writing very rapidly played movements in his compositions
At my sister & brother in law 30 yr wedding anniversary the drummer & his wife played at their wedding anniversary...they were good friends of theirs..sadly we lost my brother in law 9yrs ago & my sister last feb...but they were brilliant...ELO are one the best brittish groups
I was so obsessed with this son when it came out when I was a little kid and my big sister bought me the record (it was a little 45) and that's all I listened to for weeks.
ELO always gets it done. Never have I been let down by them.
Christmas 1976 ( I was 12) my parents bought me a cassette tape player with these three cassettes, A New World Record, Boston's first record and Kiss's Rock and Roll Over. What a great time for music!!!
Was a massive follower of ELO in the mid to late 70,s and early 80's.
Saw them in concert so many times over that period in the UK.Great Band and still doing it today all be it with a new line up but Jeff Lynne is still the voice and leader of the band
Oh I used to love this song and this band when I was a kid! Such memories! 💜
Yeah they sure had a good sound I gotta love strange magic by LO yeah you know you're good when you get in with the traveling whale berries
You gotta love a rock band with orchestra in the name. ☮💛🎶
There were two things in my childhood I grew up on .. Food was one and the other was E.L.O. Just awesome all around.
My all time favorite band. ELO is great. You definitely need to listen to "Telephone Line". A little slower but their greatest hit.
LOVE this song! Had to review the now ELEVEN ELO songs you've done to recommend some more. "Turn to Stone" has to be next, and you can also do, "Diary of Horace Wimp", "Confusion", or possibly "Xanadu" (with Olivia Newton-John!).
I agree that you should react to Turn to Stone (Live at Wembley). Jeff Lynne sounds just as good as he did 45+ years ago.
ELO/Jeff Lynne are one of my favorite rock bands. Their music is incredible. You can always tell how good a band is by seeing them live. They sound amazing. He has had his hand in so many other songs for different groups. Super talented.
A great reaction to one of the many hits from my fav band. Can’t go wrong with the genius of Jeff Lynne.
ELO's music was awesome back in the day (yeah i am that old) but honestly it was so well crafted it really is still relevant. Jeff Lynne is an underrated performer, writer and producer.
This is one of the greatest songs to Roller Skate to back in the day.
********Pretty much one of the Best Concerts Ir had the fortune to see. At the Felt Forum in LA and they were one of the first to use huge lasers in the show, particularly in "MR Blue Sky.."
Jeff Lynne has done lots of great stuff with ELO and the Traveling Wilburys. I enjoy this song too. The pitcicato (I hope I got the spelling right, but it is the plucking of the instrument strings) works so well in the moments when it comes in.
All the best from Australia.
Oh you two... there's so MUCH excellent ELO yet to see/hear. I've been a fan since '74 and few artists top them in my lil world. 😉 So happy to see you checking this out. '75-'78 was ELO's top years.
I'd like to see their reactions to "Fire On High," "Hold On Tight," and "Telephone Line."
ELO’s ‘Showdown’ is another classic!
No words For this fabolous band. This band Is a feeling, a emotion, something different and unique.
Thank you for your reaction, "Living Thing" was great success in US , was #13 Year 1976. In UK was #4 Singles Charts.
More ELO ever ! .Next from them "Telephone Line" and ,other " Shangri La " other "Roll Over Beethoven"
Greeting from Chile 🇨🇱, Santiago.
Total 70's . The vocalist , Jeff , is a legend .
Now you need to react to "Roll Over Beethoven"(a great rocking song), and "Fire On High"(A great instrumental song) both by ELO.
The electric violin was their tour manager's idea (Bernie Boyle). He went looking for one during a break in a rehearsal, and the only electric violin he could find was this blue one. Mik Kaminski was the violinist. I'd say it was a smart move!
I discovered ELO after hearing this song in Boogie Nights. Found out the artist in the credits and bought the first CD I found.
Absolutely loved ELO and the only regret in my life is that I never got to see them live. 😢 Mr Blue Sky is on of my favourite songs. 👍
"Last Train To London" is an absolute must!!!
ELO definitely carved out their own niche in the soundtrack of history. 'Light orchestra' is an actual term, referring to an orchestra with fewer instruments than the full complement of a classical orchestra, and an electric one having instruments like electric guitar, there is a meaning to the band's name. Add to that unusual name, the unique vocal style of Jeff Lynne and the other singers, sort of an 'echoes from the past' sound to them, a blend that hearkens back to moonlit tropical nights near the water in a sort of stylized 1930s or 40s blend that only exists in the imagination. Then there's the signature composition, combined with the unmistakable arrangements. All of which ends up being a uniquely-ELO song, every single one of them. Definitely a one-of-a-kind sound, which enriches our shared musical experience!
Jeff Lynne is simply brilliant. ELO truly are his brainchild. That’s why that music has stood the test of time.
ELO... happy music... so many hits... They combined rock, pop, classical, and opera lol... Great reaction. Thank you. 😊
