    This is one of the few videos of Jeff without his trademark sun glasses 🙂 Jeff is the rock star who never acts like a star. He's humble and even admits to being a little shy. His personality adds to ELOs charm and magic

    What I'm really grateful for is RUclips. All of this wonderful music from back in the days most people on here cherish and wax nostalgic about is right here at our fingertips. At almost 78 years of age, my memory is still like a steel trap, and song titles will spontaneously pop into my head from the 60's, 70's and even into the 80's. I'll go to RUclips search, and there it is ready to play. How awesome is that?

      I live in a city in the Northeast US. That city has been destroyed by Covid 19 and Donald Trump. How many times did my friends and former family, two of whom are now dead, cross the bridges into that city in the 70’s to the sounds of ELO? The first tune I recall was Telephone Line, and I can still see the spires of that city with the moonlight reflecting on the water. Idk what all this means. But like his musical forebear Claude Debussy, the Maestro Jeff Lynne and his timeless melody is forever etched into my soul. 🇺🇸

      I wouldn't go THAT far ... his tunes were nice, but Rachmaninoff, Liszt Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Mozart, Debussy, Wagner, Beethoven, ... were way more prodigious in their scope, intricacy, technique and volume of work. I love Jeff, too, and his music was part of the soundtrack of my life, but the above guys would have blown him away ...

    Midnight, on the water
    I saw the ocean's daughter
    Walking on a wave's chicane
    Staring as she called my name
    And I can't get it out of my head
    No, I can't get it out of my head
    Now my whole world is gone for dead
    'Cause I can't get it out of my head
    Bank job in the city
    Robin Hood and William Tell
    And Ivanhoe and Lancelot
    They don't envy me
    Sitting 'til the sun goes down
    In dreams the world keeps going 'round and 'round
    And I can't get it out of my head
    No, I can't get it out of my head
    Now my whole world is gone for dead
    'Cause I can't get it out of my head
    And I can't get it out of my head
    No, I can't get it out of my head
    Now my whole world is gone for dead
