ELO were a hit machine. No two songs will sound the same. Everyone has a list a mile long for this band. I recommend, Telephone Line, So Fine, Strange Magic and Fire on High just for starters.
I was obsessed with them in like 8th grade - freshman year of high school and every song I’d check out would be amazing
Good choices and add Roll Iver Beethoven!
@@joelliebler5690 agree, add that!
Same here😎
You should hear elo version of chuck berry's roll over Beethoven. It would really make him roll over 😅
This was named the happiest song in the world!❤🌈🌞
can you imagine - a whole song about a clear sunny day and how happy it makes everyone feel. such good vibes.
The " Robotic" sounding voice at the very end says"Please turn me over", as this song was the last track on the first side of the second LP on the double album "Out of The Blue" and back in the day you had to physically get up and go and turn the album over to hear the other side.
what was the song outplaying into the start of this !.
Hey, walshaw! We were both making the same comments two hours ago! I'm a music freak who likes to sing along with the words and I had been listening to Mr. Blue Sky for YEARS until someone pointed out to me that the vocoder voice is not singing mister blue sky but please turn me over! Funny and strange at the same time. By the way, are you deep into ELO? There's some strange voices going on in the 30 second intro to their song Shine A Little Love, the first track off the Discovery album. Do you know what's really going on there? I don't know so if you DO you I'd appreciate hearing from you!
High path, they are very small clips from turn to stone and concerto for a rainy day, both off the same album as mr blue sky, out of the blue…👍
@@tonynash1782 Correct and accurate info. I love that!
Old Skool Vocoder, makes you speak with the voice of an Organ.
In September 1977 we lost our Dad. I was 18 and had just started my first job from school. I wasn't really myself that winter. In the spring I started seeing my mates again. It was a warm spring and this song came out. It was definitely an uplift to me in my situation. I learned that my Dad would not wish me to be ill or miserable, and the thought of sun, smiles, and good times were possible again. Besides all that, it's a bloody good song. Thank you.
Sorry for your loss. I can only imagine how difficult that would’ve been. Just wanted to give you a shout out
🙏🌷♥️🌷🙏
“Do Ya,” “Can’t Get It Out Of My Head,” “Telephone Line,” “Turn To Stone,” “Evil Woman,” “Sweet Talking Woman,” “I’m Alive,” “All Over The World,” “Roll Over Beethoven,” “Twilight,” “Shine A Little Love,” “21st Century Man,” “Hold On Tight,” “Calling America,” “So Serious,” “Midnight Blue,” “Xanadu” (with Olivia Newton John), “Confusion,” etc etc etc. yeah, they have a few songs.
Thank you so much 😊
And get a brain fried with 10538 Overture (esp the early one with Roy Wood in the line up !)
Showdown, Fire on High, Four Little Diamonds, Living Thing, Endless Lies, Hold on Tight, Ticket To The Moon
ELO are still selling a ton of records! New generations never fail to find them. 🤩
You should definitely do "Turn to Stone" next. You'll love it.
Welcome To the Sheer Musical Genius of Jeff Lynne & ELO
"Last Train To London" "Can't Get it outta My Head" "Rockaria" " Livin Thing"
ELO was one of the bands we used to play when my unit was attached to protection duties in refugee camps when I was in the British Royal Marine Commandos. We found their music was always a amazing way to reach the refugees, especially the children, by dancing badly along to the songs. The children were always the first to show us how to dance along properly, we leant that after listening the Queen's performance during Live Aid in 1985 whilst my company was in Ethiopia.
That's a really nice story. Thanks for sharing!
They do an amazing live version of this. You should check it out. The multi-generational audience goes nuts.
This is live fool
The ‘CLANK-CLANK-CLANK’ motif was originally played on a vintage fire extinguisher and I’m pleased to say they’ve included a (more up to date) fire extinguisher in more recent live performances!
One of the most underrated bands ever! Great group! Check out Evil Woman and Livin' Thing!
ELO is a great rabbit hole to go down. They have some great songs
"Out of the Blue" ...still one of the greatest Albums ever released !....a timeless Milestone !
Yes 👍😊
Love this band , am glad to have been alive when this was on the radio. Great times great music.
Agree 100% 👍😊
Welcome to the world of jeff lynne ..!!
At least a dozen songs from the elo catalogue, evil woman, telephone line, turn to stone for starters, he was then one part of the supergroup the travellin willburys that is also a must…enjoy..!!
You're both looking great today and I love Mel's hair! Looks great on you!
You guys do like that ELO!! Me too! Very upbeat tune here!! Rock on, S & M!
At times Shawn reminds me of Flip Wilson. Anyone else?
“Do Ya” love this band? No surprise! Everybody does! 🌺✌️
ELO has so many HITS, I would recommend TWILIGHT not very known but it is a GEM, too.
Twilight is marvellous! I love the entire Time album!
Twilight is my favorite ELO song by quite a bit, but *none* of the reactors I watch have done it.
Thank you Shawn and Mel! Telephone line please please please!
My brother’s favourite group. He died just before Christmas and his funeral was just a month ago. A couple of ELO songs were played including this one as we left the service. I have also loved this and will now always remember my brother when I hear it. Blessings
ELO is probably the band with the most songs I love more than any other band! Often called “The Beatles of the 70’s” even songs not released as singles were great. For ELO reviewers I see a common theme with the same hits reviewed like Tightrope or Telephone Line, one of their best songs especially Live at Wembley Stadium. Great indeed but it was my sister and I going to see the movie Xanadu in 1980 that hooked me forever as an ELO fan. Side one was Olivia Newton John who starred in the movie and side 2 ELO. Movie opener was “Im Alive” and is the song that hooked me forever and is still a favorite. Will anyone else suggest it? Probably not but if you liked Don’t Bring Me Down and Mr. Blue Sky my money is on the fact you will. I’ve also had Im Alive as a ringtone to wake up too. Also fun fact……the song Xanadu is written and performed by Jeff Lynne of ELO but sung by Olivia Newton John and is also a classic. Have fun exploring one of the most talented bands ever!
Yes another ELO classic that. They have so many!
Cool to find someone else who appreciates "Xanadu". I've been watching the video of Olivia Newton John singing the title song and everything about it transports me back to the 70's: the roller skates, the outfits, the attitude! Love it ❤
I always thought this song - Mr. Blue Sky - sounded like a Paul McCartney song... lol
I was born in 1961 and therefore lucky enough to have grown up with all that wonderful music.
beautiful reaction guys ! "LIVING THING" for reaction ; )
I had the privilege to see him on September 10, 2016 at the Hollywood Bowl. Great concert!
You need to listen to the entire "Concerto For a Rainy Day" of which "Mr. Blue Sky" is just one song. There's four songs, "Standin' in the Rain", "Big Wheels", Summer and Lightning", and "Mr. Blue Sky". They really go together.
Wonderful reaction video to one of my favorites! ❤️. Last Train to London is another great ELO song! Mel you have a beautiful smile!
Absolutely love it! You guys are so adorable. Great reaction video.
Brilliant Band I Love All Their Music
You two are always so positive. I'm glad you came across this. E.L.O. is just great. I'm glad you felt uplifted. You should be. Take care. 😊
Thanks for your reaction. Going forward, treat yourself with some ELO live performances too. They are incredible live. Love your energy :)
So many great songs by ELO. Great headphones music! Starlight, Turn to Stone, Showdown….too many to name.
Ohhhhh. Yesss. ELO, twice in as many days!! All of their songs are fantastic. As I said before. Not a bad song did they make. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🎤🎶🎼🎹🎸🥁🎻🪕🎷
Love your passion for the music guys. I was in college when ELO became popular. We were blown away by the full-on orchestration. Keep it up!
Such a joyful song 🎵
I saw them at Wembley arena 🇬🇧 uk in 1978 they are absolutely 💯 👌 fantastic 👏
Lovely reactions from both of you .
The whole album Out OfThe Blue would blow your mind.
Give it a try coz it’s been recommended not coz someone stumped up for something.
If you love music,you’ll love the album.
I love how you smile immediately when the song starts. THAT's ELO!!
Officially the happiest song in the world 🌎 x
Probably the most successful blending of orchestral instruments & rock ever.
Please MORE ELO !!!!! Jeff Lynne has such an amazing voice !! So many great songs ahead for you guys !!!
Greetings from Rochester, NY to both of you! Please give a listen and review to ELO’s hit “All Around the World”. I believe it should be our anthem when the Covid Pandemic is over! Make sure to watch the wonderful flash mob dancing! It’s awesome. Thanks for your consideration!
Telephone line, Last train to London.. So many great songs....
ELO rocks forever. So unique and incredible.
Awesome awesome song ,when ever I’m down I listen to this ,love it
I knew how good this song is… but watching you makes me feel like I am enjoying with you and discovering all over again.
Ahh you have to listen to The Diary of Horace Wimp by these guys. Pure genius!
The guy singin is Jeff Lynn a multi instrumentalist and song writer the man is a genius and really nice guy seen him interviewed GOAT..
4:30 I adore this part. The synthesized voice is exquisite, a complete surprise and uplifting part of the song. This song is my feel good, happyness restoring pick-me-up. The lyrics, the melodies, the layers, all of it is spot on on point, just a gold standard record. Loved your reaction, glad you love it as much as I do. My two fun facts about this song, One- the clangs that bookend each chorus were made by striking a fire extinguisher. Fact two- The words spoken at 7:00 are "Please turn me over", as when the song was first released, it was on vinal, meaning the record had to be flipped to hear the other songs on the opposite side.
Equally, "please turn me over" (to the other side) could have the ultimate meaning of a supplication to Mr Blue Sky for change more permanent than that induced by happiness at beautiful weather. The basis for that - obviously - being that Mr Blue Sky is God, who does things "all right" in every sense. The beautiful clang we hear is indeed from hitting the fire extinguisher. But does that mean we want fires (in us) to be extinguished, or NOT to be extinguushed? After all the device is being hit, not used!!!
Perfect orchestration. ELO one of the most creative and innovative bands with such uplifting, catchy songs. Great reaction!
Great version but the best one is the studio cut from the incredible double album Out of the Blue as the ending trails off a bit longer. I love every song on that LP. Jeff Lynne is a musical genius doing almost everything. The sound of their vast catalogue is often different but infectious. The entire A New World Record is also classic. They are not just my two favourite EKO albums but two of my favourite ever. I have played the crap out out of both of them since I was a teenager in the late 1970s.
Is there a more beautiful song? the skies in my favourite holiday place are mesmerisingly blue , I can sit and watch the sky for hours
Just a small sampling of some more ELO songs you can react to: "Roll Over Beethoven" "Evil Woman" Turn to Stone" "Rockaria" "Livin' Thing" "Ma Ma Ma Belle" "All Over the World"
She is beautiful!❤️ Lucky man!
Please try Sweet talkin’ woman, strange magic, or telephone line next.
Sweet Talkin Woman probably the best rock style one
If you want something a bit whimsical from ELO, take a listen to 'Wild West Hero'. You will LOVE IT!
You can’t help but smile at Mr Blue Sky.
Fun fact: Mr. Blue Sky is the four movement of a four song blend called, Concerto a Rainy Day. Now, go get your best headphones and go to musical bliss. Your mind will be completely blown.
Phil Church here and this was coming out of my bedroom daily .. loved growing up in the 1970's and you really missed a lot
That vocoder voice at the end is not saying Mister Blue Sky but Please turn me over! It was the last song on side 3 of the original double LP and a clever way of encouraging the listeners to turn the record over to side 4! He even said Please!
That's because we used to listen to full albums to soak in the artist's realization. There was no, "This song is going on the play list". I still listen to music this way today. If I want song for song variety, I turn on the radio for a slew of predictable choices.
@@mgordon1100 I also play my LPs from start to finish. Even those who are not "concept" album per se. Artists back then use to put in considerable time and effort to get the track sequencing just right and its a way of honouring the Artists original intent. Sure, there are the occasional album I skip certain tracks but for the most part I play them through. Ive given up on Spotify and Tidal. They offer a great variety of albums but I cherish the physical media format, like LPs and CDs. I cuddle up in a cosy nook enjoying the cover art and read the accompanying booklets! I get as much pleasure out of CDs as LPs. I started collecting CDs as a 15 year old back in 1995 and my CD collection consist of ca.20 000 CDs. I also but the occasional LP, mostly 60s and 70s Pop and I've got around 1 000 LPs. I'm loving it! 60s Popsike, Soft Pop and Baroque Pop and 70s Singer/songwriter and Soft Rock are my favourite genres. My favourite artists include The Beatles, Hollies, Beach Boys, ELO and Gilbert OSullivan!
@@thomasmarthinussen8978 Yes!!!! Concept or not, the song order of each album was important. I have said this over and over, but most people just don't get it. Look at Abbey Road. The closing medley put aside, the rest of it could not be played out of order. It was meticulously designed that way.
I love you guys and your reaction to this one!! ELO does make you feel good!! And so do you!! 😊
I can’t help but have a goofy grin on my face when I hear this song.
Smile on the face within 3 seconds. Classic tune for sure
This song reminds me of the Beatles whom Jeff Lynn loved. He later played with George Harrison in a band called Traveling Wilburys
You would probably like "Hold On Tight" and "Turn To Stone"
Shawn couldn't help but clench his fists in delight. Brilliant reaction guys. Keep spreading your love
You have to react to "Showdown." Think you'll love it!
Fantastic song and melody.
In college in ‘87 on the first wonderful spring day in VT we put our speakers in our dorm room window and blasted this out onto the grass where everyone was trying to sun. Wasn’t anyone mad. 😁
You probably heard that over lockdown, this song was voted Number 1 in two polls in the UK for the happiest song,....EVER
One of the greats thanks
i like elo a lot!, so many fine songs n hits.
You finally heard the happiest song in the whole world 🤟🤟🎵🎵
this is one of those perfect wake up songs. Thank you folks for reminding me of what a great song this is.
It's impossible not to smile when hearing this song.
And Mel... you look fabulous!
Jeff Lynne, one of the greatest pop songwriters of our generation. Solo and running ELO, Jeff is a super writer, singer, musician, and producer!
Shawn and Mel, love your positivity 👍 keep smiling 🌈🌞
Sweet Talkin' Woman
You guys do a fantastic job!
great reaction guys! what you probably dont realise is that ELO was a truly Anglo-american band, but Jeff Lynne - the lead guitar\singer & songwriter was from Birmingham, England. In the 70's it was a grey, dull industrial city, in the middle of a country where grey skies are normal & rain happens all the time.
Shawn's a bit of a rocker- I suggest reacting to ELO's Rockaria!
I love this song so much its the happiest song ever , it is my ring tone , how can you not love this group, thier music is so uplifting and makes you feel it. This song is so great and makes you feel so good and happy about life
Don’t Bring Me Down was a misleading intro to ELO yesterday. Though a great song, it doesn’t represent the band’s usual sound that is classical strings-heavy. Mr. Blue Sky shows it off well. Others to review: Livin’ Thing, Telephone Line, Evil Woman, Can’t Get It Out Of My Head, and if you want some disco pop, Shine A Little Love. They were all big hits.
My Mom was at school with him in Brum ,so loved them from the 70s , my albums is Aldarado and Time 😎
Love this song. Great songs today
One of the happiest songs on earth!
Every time I hear any song by ELO I have to listen to Rockaria straight after. My absolute favourite song by them.
I was lucky enough to see ELO twice, you gotta hear “Turn to Stone”and “All over the World” …which should be the anthem after Covid lol!
You guys remind me all the time why I’m subscribed here! You really dig music and instruments, sooo refreshing!
A good song about just enjoying a beautiful day is It's a Beautiful Morning by The Rascals. The first line just makes me happy.
Come-On ELO fans, Shawn & Mel must do....
"The Diary of Horace Wimp "
Please fans get behind me on this amazing song...
a funny & sweet love story... A must hear... enjoy ✌😎
Thank-you Shawn & Mel 💖
for all of the enthusiastic & funny reactions !
One of their best albums was TIME with all songs amazing. But all albums great.
More ELO goodness: Basically anything on A New World Record (highlights include Tightrope, Telephone Line, Rockaria, So Fine and Livin' Thing as a pair, and Do Ya, at which point that's two-thirds of the album), Strange Magic, Evil Woman, Turn To Stone - and Fire on High is a *trip*.
When you live in the U.K. a blue sky is something to be pleased about...believe me!
Yes Shawn, Mel has a beautiful smile 😊
There's so much I could say about this song but seeing you both smiling and enjoying the song says it all. That's what ELO was always about. Making music that made people happy and they did it very well to say the least.
A wonderful reaction to a wonderful song, Shawn and Mel, and keep doing what you're doing!
GROOT! From the movie Guardians of The Galaxy! ELO is still current!!!!!
Jeff Lynn did say one of his major influences was the Beatles, can you hear it ? :) WOO HOOO !!!!!
Scientifically proven to be the the happiest song of all time!
