    Lyrics:
    Sailin' away on the crest of a wave
    It's like magic
    Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' & slidin'
    It's magic
    And you, and your sweet desire,
    You took me, higher and higher
    It's a livin' thing,
    It's a terrible thing to lose
    It's a given thing
    What a terrible thing to lose.

    The 70’s were a magical time for music. I’m so glad I grew up listening to bands like ELO. Their music is otherworldly and timeless. Still listening in 2024, and I’ll never stop.

    I turned 11 in 1976. My favorite gift was from my grandmother. She bought me an am/fm Panasonic clock radio(so that I could fall asleep to my music and have my very own ALARM CLOCK)(what can I say, I was 11 and it was a big deal, okay?)
    I ran to my room and plugged it in, tuned it to my favorite rock station(WVMT in Colchester Vermont)(talk radio now) and the very first thing I heard was the violin intro to Livin Thing.
    I am forever and always ELO's biggest fan.

It's no wonder cocaine was so popular with studio work.

Well promoted or well composed. Catchy or soulful. Quantity vs quality. Expedience or thoughtfulness. Who listens to a song because it's at the top of the charts?

    ROCK HALL OF FAME...It's more than time to induct Jeff Lynne as a solo artist like George, Ringo, Paul and John (They all were inducted as a band and solo artists). The great Jeff Lynne released his latest album in November of 2019 and was no. 1 on the UK chart. Jeff Lynne's ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA is still Touring! From 1972 to 1986 Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra has had more top 40 hits than any other group in the world. More than 50 years later they still play in sold-out Arenas and Stadiums. I saw them again in 2019 before the Pandemic on the North American Tour...( Best Concert of my life) All the reviews agree they are the best live Classical Rock Band still touring. Jeff Lynne is a Music Genius. ELO is in the Rock Hall of Fame. Jeff Lynne is on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame and Birmingham Walk OF Fame. Jeff Lynne’s ELO won the Best Classic Rock Band plus Lynne won the best Song Writer award ( ASCAP ) 2019 for his fantastic contribution over the years. In October of 2020, Jeff Lynne has been made an officer of The Order Of The British Empire for his extraordinary contribution to music. He created the best Super Group of all time with his best friend George Harrison "The Traveling Wilburys". They asked Tom Petty, Roy Orbison and Bob Dylan to join this amazing band. The Legends in the Music Industry call Jeff Lynne the best overall Musician ever and a Producer Extraordinaire. Jeff Lynne has written and produced many hit songs for music legends like George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Joe Walsh, Brian Wilson, Paul McCartney, Bryan Adams, Aerosmith, Del Shannon, the Everly Brothers, and so many others... Long live Jeff Lynne’s ELO! Please Tour in 2022! www.thetoptens.com/greatest-music-producers-all-time/

      And that is what Paul Mccartney said. Jeff and Paul are good friends and in an interview (at Jeff's house in the US), Paul said that ELO were what the Beatles would have become if they stayed together. Ringo Starr, Tom Petty and Roy Orbison were all friends, and could not speak more highly of Jeff.

      Underrated? With the succes they had? One of the Beatless once said they would have evolved into something like ELO. Jeff Lynne also worked with George Harris, Roy Orbinson, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty so I wouldn’t call them underrated. Maybe their music was so special not everyone understands it or knows it but they sold millions of records and are an example for many artists.

    This was the first record I ever bought with my own money in 1976. Even as a shy 11 year old girl in small town South Wales I knew I loved ELO. For someone so young I pride myself in having impeccable taste!
    I had to ask my Mother what desire meant, and she wouldn't tell me. There was no Google in 1976 for me to find out for myself.
    Fast forward to 2024, and I will be attending the Jeff Lynne's ELO final " Over and Out" tour in St Louis, Missouri Sept 6th. It's my last chance to live my life long dream of attending their concert.
