IT'S APRIL 04, 2024! STILL IN LUV WITH YOUR MUSIC ❣️ LUV FR FLAGSTAFF,ARIZONA USA ❣️ THANK U 4 ALL U GUYS/WOMEN 4 YOUR PERFECTION 2 PROVIDE THE BEST IN MUSIC ❣️
reminds me of the 1970's station wagon my folks had (like in 70's show) traveling across the United States with the family... seeing America family vacation style.. ELO, Wings, and Jackson Browne on the AM dial... throughout the AM airwaves state to state.
I actually get tears in my eyes when I hear these Songs and think back to how great times were then . We DEFINITELY had the best generation of Music and people , HANDS DOWN 😁😁😁
I'm trying to do the math. I'm 67, I'm very close to 50 years if I'm not there already. I used to play air violin in my barracks room when nobody was watching. I joined the Army when I was 17. Anyway, close enough! It's magic.
You can keep your McCartney's, Lennon's, Jagger's and all the other so called stars. Jeff and ELO kept me going through my hospitalised youth. And Jeff is so, so underrated as a writer and performer. I grew up with his music in the 70's and 80's and still listen to it now. Remembering just how _"normal"_ the world was back then.
@@phantomstratocaster You can keep your mind young and fresh, but not your body ;-))... I see kids playing football for instance and think, _"I'll join in with them. Used to be pretty good at footy in my youth."_ And 1 minute later, when you're lying on the ground with the kids surrounding you, asking if you're OK, you suddenly remember why you stopped playing football 30 years ago. Knee problem. 8-))...
Bring back the days the airwaves were filled the sounds of E.L.O., Steely Dan, Fleetwood Mac, Journey, Eagles, Little River Band and so many more! Today's music is woefully inadequate!
I agree, that's why I love RUclips. You can go back to the 70s and never leave the house. If there's ever a time machine Im on it. Send me to the 70s and I will stay.
Jeff is one of life’s premier musicians..the songs he’s written and the beautiful voice to be able to sing them with . What a talented musician 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This band was an escape for me when I was a little girl. I grew up on the Indian Reservation and it wasn't easy! But,my cousin and would sit in my room with locked doors to keep the bad uncle away. We would sing and pretend we were different people. I love E.L.O!
There's nothing 'strange' about the level of talent & musical ability that is Jeff Lynne & ELO. They churned out so many amazing hits & one of the most electrifying instrumental songs in rock, that being "FIRE ON HIGH". Timeless.
I stopped listening to the music on the radio after the 90’s and that was pushing it. I understand every decade has its pros and cons, but since 2000 FORGET IT. I’m 59 btw and live in a big city and not a prude.
ELO one of the best groups of the 70s. Jeff Lyne is an absolute musical genius. Listened to these guys for hours at a time and enjoyed every minute of it.

How many Saturday afternoons, when kids really played outside, with no Wi-Fi, no Facebook friends, no cell phone, listening to Casey Kasem's top 40 with all these 70s tunes competing on the charts. Was the greatest time to grow up. Now it's the greatest of memories, to stay young. 1965-?
Some people can't see beyond their insecurities James, nice retort, and your original comment was spot on. Lynne is one of those rare singers who don't need a studio to sound as good as anything they've put out.
Love elo rip Jeff lynne love ur music 4ever! So sorry to hear of ur passing..sing ur heart out in heaven! Love you an u r missed an never b forgotten ❤❤❤❤❤❤
An even stranger magic Jeff, is that you think this is merely a nice little tune. This is a masterpiece. The strangest magic, is your ability to write songs, that tear at the heartstrings and souls of mere mortals and with the voice of an angel. I love you.🐨💝🦘
Agree 100%. Have a listen to Nightwish live (symphonic metal with orchestral laters) with Floor Jansen as lead singer. She also has the voice of an angel and the best vocalist that I have ever heard male or female. 🙏👍😊
Still listening in 2024.. Living in Twilight, but not the groovy vampire movie with all those handsome kelpie or cryptic creatures. It hasn't dated at all! Love it ❤
Just unbelievable Jeff this is a legend from the 70th and look how great he sounds and looks keep going Jeff your song s will live forever Phil Maguire meath lreland
It's amazing how Jeff Lynne has kept his wonderful voice...He will be 72 in a few months and i can't wait to see him in concert once more this Summer of 2019 in the USA and Canada. Long live Jeff Lynne's ELO!!!!
I was going to see him July 9th at the BTT center in Ft Lauderdale, but we are going on a cruise to Alaska, so I will miss him,,, very disappointed....was looking forward to taking my son.....
Right ELO should rightfully be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. More talent in The little finger of Jeff Lynn than a lot of one hit wonders inducted.
Exactly,..."strange pain in my insides"...nicely put...I felt the same way as a kid [and now] whenever I listened [or listen] to Jeff Lynne. All his songs...but the song that always floored me the most was Last Train To London.
Electric Light Orchestra is a fantastic band. What astounded me most when I saw Jeff Lynne’s ELO live in concert a couple of years ago, is the contrast between how they sound on a personal electronic device or hi fi stereo & how they sound in a large entertainment venue with a professional sound system. They sounded about 3000x as good in the large venue. This is truly a band that MUST be experienced live to be truly appreciated.
Jeff Lynne is known to be somewhat of a perfectionist who aims to deliver stage performances that are as good as the original studio recordings. Without a doubt, Jeff is a master producer, song writer and arranger.
Jeff Lynne sounds as good as he did in the 70's, that was an era when music had a value and the words described life as it was and how it should be what a shame that value is lost today.
@@frandanco6289 Sorry Fran you seem so offended that I think he should get more recognition. It's just an appreciation of the man's music and talent that's all! Oh and by the way I was in high school when ELO originally formed, but thanks for taking some years off my age!
He is not underrated! There’s always gonna be somebody like you on every damn video who has to 2:13 squawk out nonsense… There is nobody that matters who doesn’t know how great this man is… He is not under rated at all… He is worshiped
Strange Magic is positively one of the best songs in ELO's vast catalogue. Simply incredible with that melancholy guitar intro. Gives me goosebumps each time.
anofi berry yes it is. Beatiful voice. I want to go back to 1976, Sergeant in the Marine Corps. Miss those days, no worries, just take care of self and my Marines in my squad.
anofi berry your welcome. I'd do it again. My whole family was US Army, from World War Two, The Korean War, Vietnam War, Desert Storm, the War on Terrorism. I have cousins who were in the Army and younger cousins, nephews all in the Army. Im the only Marine on both sides of my family. When we have family reunions they give me down the road. I tell them Im a Marine at 62 yrs old and I can take it. So proud to have served our country. Semper Fi.
Jeff Lynne is a 🐐. His writing and creativity is like no other. You will never hear lyrics like this in this time. I saw him live in VA I did not want to leave. ELO is got to be in the top 5 of British groups of all time.
Those of us, that were teens, or older, in the 70's, had ELO's amazing music buried into our souls...I never saw them live but; youtube has so many great videos, and has helped me to appreciate them even more...
I agree, the music of the 60s and 70s was and still is great. Im 61 yrs old and still listen to only 60-70s. If time travel ever happens Im headed back to 60-70.
Yeah I was 9 in 1975 but I had older family that would take me cruising in my Cousins 68 GTO jamming to ELO and BTO in Bill Stevens GTO start of a cool song in Springfield Ohio!
Jeff is such a great musician/producer, he can perform live and have it sound like studio quality perfection. Thanks, Jeff, for your contributions, both with your band and above and beyond ELO...Wilburys and Beatles.
I noticed the same thing. This is the real deal, every instrument and voice is being performed live here, there is no backtrack. Absolutely incredible performance by a LOT of talented people!
ELO and Jeff Lynne, are my all time favorite! I can listen to their music, morning, noon, and night, and all times I between. True talent, yesterday, today, tomorrow, and forever, and forever; they make my heart smile, and truly feel, each and every day, and I thank them, each and every day. I am so unbelievably grateful, that their incredible and forever sustaining music, now and forever, will live on. I thank them, from the bottom of my heart! Sue Kane
"...can never die. There's more to it than meets the eye." I always thought ELO was too commercial. I have a tendency not listen to what the radio plays... anyway, I watched Jeff's involvement with the other bands and I always had this idea that Jeff was more than the leader of a band. As it turns out, he's probably a Catastrophist, which is cool, because I can prove the science to you, but that Jeff knows is my fun way of dealing with the knowledge. Can't prove it, but I could make you wonder. lol Anyway, I've been listen to ELO now... a lot.
You know it's real talent when a band sounds the same live as they do in the studio. That means no electronic doodads to mask their ability (or lack thereof!) But to sound the same 40 years later? Now that is nothing short of spectacular!
Did this particular version of ELO re-record all the original ELO songs for a CD? If not then they do not sound the same live as they do in the studio ( If they did that is different). I like the ELO from the early 70's and on the group we all know and love. (Jeff, Richard, Kelly, Mik, Bev, Hugh and Melvyn). This version of ELO does not even have a violin. Yes Jeff and Richard are great but they do sound different it's not terrible but not as good to me.
Jeff is undoubtedly the most UNDER-RATED musicians of all time. His voice, his lyrics, putting The Wilburys together in 3 days..he is beyond awesome. Thank you Jeff, just hearing your voice is so soothing. So humble, so freaking talented..Amazing man.
@@TC-dw6wg They, Jeff, George and Bob where driving around Mulholland and Tom Petty drove past...Bob had a studio set up, he and Tom were close and then George's in with Roy pulled it together. Three days and the were at it 24/7. Egos checked at the door. It is amazing to listen to Tweeter and The Monkey Man, knowing the song and all the others came together that quickly.
Who's underating him? He's a world famous musical genuis,, inducted into Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE), Songwriters Hall of Fame, just to name a few!
They played near me a bit back. I saw them in 1973. I was stunned how great he still sounds. I thought I’m 16 again! But alas I’m 63. I had chills and was just thinking how amazing is this. He hasn’t lost a step. He’s a musical fountain of youth.
Just being able to coordinate an orchestra and get this much great vibe out of it, is a feat of engineering in its self. I've listened to his music since the late 70's and have loved it ever since.
@@81licker I too. I was a United States Marine on Okinawa in 1975, when I first heard Jeff and ELO. At 64 yrs old I still a fan. Love to return to 1975, and stay in the 70s, even repeat 4 yrs in the United States Marine Corps.
Yes it was. I was in the United States Marine Corps when this was a hit. Memories of an old girlfriend Teri H. who lived in Jacksonville NC outside of Camp LeJeune North Carolina. Stay safe my friend during this COVID19 virus.
What can I say to add to all of these Comments from other people. I am simply flabbergasted at the talents of ELO and especially of the musical genius Jeff Lynne. Fantastic songwriter, incredible producer, words seem inadequate to try to describe what he has accomplished with his music and his unbelievable Band The Electric Light Orchestra. They are amazing! I’m glad that we were lucky enough to experience their music in our lives!

Saw them live in late 80s. Growing up in 70s… what a great era for music and just living in that era… no other time in my life topped back then.
The '70's had the best music. I miss those years.
Anyone have a time machine?
Yes, it is my stereo
@@clydehoops6069 Yup, that's the best we have right now.
RUclips is our time machine.

@@clydehoops6069 It is also RUclips.
Jeff Lynne has produced some of the best music of our time.
Ehhh
yes he has

Brad, you are 1000% right.
And influenced so many rock musicians like Tom Petty and George Harrison for instance.
I've been a fan of ELO for more than 50 years. Jeff Lynne was way ahead of his time.
He still is!
I'm trying to do the math. I'm 67, I'm very close to 50 years if I'm not there already. I used to play air violin in my barracks room when nobody was watching.

They are since 2017!

@@blairchambers6666 ikr
Yeah. Smoke, that's. a. fucking. Shame.
Yup they are in as deserved
The back up singer is so elegant and just flows with the music she’s incredible
That’s Rosie Vela. She was dating Jeff at the time, she’s an American model and singer
@@JJ-zm4ns she's a he.
@@JJ-zm4ns I just looked her up and she's 70 years old now!
I agree Joseph, she has an incredible sinuous grace about her and a hell of a voice.
She's like a cross between The Lady of the Lake and a mermaid
Jeff Lynne is a GENIUS. NO ONE ever created arrangements blending Rock and Classical like he did.
*Does, he's still making music and going on tours.
I first heard ELO in the 70's - Classic rock all the way, lifetime fan forever
Not to take away anything from ELO, but don't forget the Moody Blues, who were first in 1967 with "Days of Future Past."
That’s why he is a Wilbury. All star! Only him and Bob left.😢

I close my eyes and I am a teenager back in North Philly in 76. Wish I could go back and stay in that time and place
God gives us gifts of all kinds, and Jeff is truly one he gave to the world to enjoy while we're here.
So true
I agree wholeheartedly
Jeff Lyn is the most amazing musician ever!
@@debrashort7061 I hate using superlatives unless... but he is an amazing musician, singer composer... strange magic....
Amen
It's amazing how he can still sing these songs live after all these years. Seriously talented man!
yeah he's still got the pipes.
Always and forever!
In 2023 too
Amazing and still my all time favourite group with the magic and presentation in each of their shows!
It’s absolutely true. Saw them couple years ago. Terrific!
I was listening to this 45 years ago... Jeff and the Orchestra Still sound fantastic!.
Me too, and it always brings me back to those beautiful times 🥰
Me too, Robert! Still AWESOME, after all these years!! 💕
45 years ago ?
Me too!!
Bad to the Bone back then and now I love it 😍
This guy is an absolute genius! Not only was he extremely talented, he squeezed every bit of talent out of his orchestra!
I love his voice
Hey Joe totally agree 😊👍🏻🇦🇺
@@Jarhead-ki7io I’m gay and I appreciate her beauty!! Lol. Doesn’t need makeup. Classy
Jeff still has it all together. What a great career he’s had.
And they enjoyed themselves while performing with a legend. I most certainly would!
Fantastic. Still watching Dec. 2023
You can keep your McCartney's, Lennon's, Jagger's and all the other so called stars. Jeff and ELO kept me going through my hospitalised youth.
And Jeff is so, so underrated as a writer and performer.

Omg. I have no idea why. These songs are in my head 24 hours today. So amazing, I literally can’t stop hearing this in my head.
It's the strings that always get me.
Jeff Lynne sounds as good as he did in the 70's, that was an era when music had a value and the words described life as it was and how it should be what a shame that value is lost today.
Amen
Thanks
UuuiThanks.
Yes,you are 100% right!
The 70’s were magic....
So underrated! He's not just up with the greats..he is one
Yes, we are in the Presence of Greatness
Not underrated
Jim Harrison --- Who said he is "so underrated"???? You???? You were not even born when ELO came out, so you really know Nothing...
@@frandanco6289 Sorry Fran you seem so offended that I think he should get more recognition. It's just an appreciation of the man's music and talent that's all! Oh and by the way I was in high school when ELO originally formed, but thanks for taking some years off my age!
He is not underrated! There’s always gonna be somebody like you on every damn video who has to 2:13 squawk out nonsense… There is nobody that matters who doesn’t know how great this man is… He is not under rated at all… He is worshiped
Nothing better than sitting back and getting higher and higher listening ELO 👍
✌️
Still sounds good all these years later. I listened to ELO on holiday this year and couldn't stop my feet tapping. Thanks Jeff for keeping this alive.
Strange Magic is positively one of the best songs in ELO's vast catalogue. Simply incredible with that melancholy guitar intro. Gives me goosebumps each time.
Agree with you.
100%
Update folks: ELO is now in the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame----long over due!
Way over due
About bloody time.
When I listen I still want to conduct
@@johnclonch3823 mlm
Way overdue .
Thanks for the update.
Wow man, after all these years Mr. Lynne's voice is still as Smooth as Silk..
...and his hair's still pubey as ever, lol. The man's so underrated.
Classy Clay, classy..
anofi berry yes it is. Beatiful voice. I want to go back to 1976, Sergeant in the Marine Corps. Miss those days, no worries, just take care of self and my Marines in my squad.
Very Cool M.G.P.B. GOD Bless you and Thank You for your SERVICE !
anofi berry your welcome. I'd do it again. My whole family was US Army, from World War Two, The Korean War, Vietnam War, Desert Storm, the War on Terrorism. I have cousins who were in the Army and younger cousins, nephews all in the Army. Im the only Marine on both sides of my family. When we have family reunions they give me down the road. I tell them Im a Marine at 62 yrs old and I can take it. So proud to have served our country. Semper Fi.
Never stop listening 🎶 🙌 ❤️ 👏 ♥️ to these guys. Grew up with them had all their albums Just beautiful 🎶 🎵 2024 and beyond..
Jeff Lynne is a 🐐. His writing and creativity is like no other. You will never hear lyrics like this in this time. I saw him live in VA I did not want to leave. ELO is got to be in the top 5 of British groups of all time.
The top 2
Those of us, that were teens, or older, in the 70's, had ELO's amazing music buried into our souls...I never saw them live but; youtube has so many great videos, and has helped me to appreciate them even more...
Thanks ELO... Thanks Mr. Jeff... With out all your music , world wouldt be the same... ❤❤❤
So much magic in this mans heart!!! He is so good thanks Jeff i love you brother god bless my friend.
So glad I grew up in the 60 and 70s and got to hear all these great groups when they were brand new and so was i:)
I agree, the music of the 60s and 70s was and still is great. Im 61 yrs old and still listen to only 60-70s. If time travel ever happens Im headed back to 60-70.
His voice is pure magic💙
I get strange chills listening to this masterpiece.
ELO, my family and classmates all listened to & we are just like the way we were.
Wish we could all go back in time , absolutely brilliant.
Absolutely should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
If ever a person deserved a knighthood it's this man. love him.
"Wow, That was absolutely perfect."
I get weepy and fundamentally wistful for those days...what a gift
Yeah I was 9 in 1975 but I had older family that would take me cruising in my Cousins 68 GTO jamming to ELO and BTO in Bill Stevens GTO start of a cool song in Springfield Ohio!
Same!
Jeff is such a great musician/producer, he can perform live and have it sound like studio quality perfection. Thanks, Jeff, for your contributions, both with your band and above and beyond ELO...Wilburys and Beatles.
I noticed the same thing. This is the real deal, every instrument and voice is being performed live here, there is no backtrack. Absolutely incredible performance by a LOT of talented people!
Indeed.
And Composer.
And with Tom Petty as producer
Jeff, was great whenever he stepped on stage and with who ever was with him, just awesome
ELO and Jeff Lynne, are my all time favorite! I can listen to their music, morning, noon, and night, and all times I between. True talent, yesterday, today, tomorrow, and forever, and forever; they make my heart smile, and truly feel, each and every day, and I thank them, each and every day. I am so unbelievably grateful, that their incredible and forever sustaining music, now and forever, will live on. I thank them, from the bottom of my heart!

Flying through a sun in a broken stone age dome ?????! What is this bringing back to the days of my life
The best part of watching this video over the years is that Rosie remains beautiful and never ages.
Love you ELO! Every song, speaks to me in way only an artist understands.
so with you
We're all artists, I'm some capacity.
I am SO with you Alabama Jenny.
no words just musical brilliance
Damn Skippy
Jeff, the best of the best. And the lady next to him, well, STUNNING and then some.
@johnnydelbravo Thank's Johnny for sharing. No, I had no idea who she was. I will research more her Zazu album later. Pete.
Rosie is a doll baby
You looking soucy!!!!!!
just amazing every time I hear these songs!!! Gives me goosebumps. Best music real music!
These two songs deserve WAY MORE views than they currently have.
Does anyone else feel like Jeff Lynne owns a time machine?
I Would Like to See The Blueprints for That Time Machine
I certainly think there's a portrait in his attic !
He shares it with Ringo.....
"...can never die. There's more to it than meets the eye." I always thought ELO was too commercial. I have a tendency not listen to what the radio plays... anyway, I watched Jeff's involvement with the other bands and I always had this idea that Jeff was more than the leader of a band. As it turns out, he's probably a Catastrophist, which is cool, because I can prove the science to you, but that Jeff knows is my fun way of dealing with the knowledge. Can't prove it, but I could make you wonder. lol Anyway, I've been listen to ELO now... a lot.
Well put...
You know it's real talent when a band sounds the same live as they do in the studio.
That means no electronic doodads to mask their ability (or lack thereof!)
But to sound the same 40 years later? Now that is nothing short of spectacular!
I saw the Little River Band at a club in Lynchburg, VA over 10 yrs ago and they sounded EXACTLY like their CD's! I was blown away!
Now that's a jam reminds Me of.my ex-brother In-law johnny chingas RIP
Quantum Consciousness Journey in the Steve Perry days were the same. You couldn't tell the diff between live or vinyl!
Did this particular version of ELO re-record all the original ELO songs for a CD? If not then they do not sound the same live as they do in the studio ( If they did that is different). I like the ELO from the early 70's and on the group we all know and love. (Jeff, Richard, Kelly, Mik, Bev, Hugh and Melvyn). This version of ELO does not even have a violin. Yes Jeff and Richard are great but they do sound different it's not terrible but not as good to me.
I'm going to see him 8/22 at MSG! Ohhhhhhhhh I can't wait!!!
Jeff's so gifted. It surely IS a gift.
Jeff Lynne You are magic...One of the Sweetest musicians ever...Love you buddy
Rick Sanchez wubba lubba dub dub!!!
Jeff is undoubtedly the most UNDER-RATED musicians of all time. His voice, his lyrics, putting The Wilburys together in 3 days..he is beyond awesome. Thank you Jeff, just hearing your voice is so soothing. So humble, so freaking talented..Amazing man.
The Traveling Wilburys was George Harrison’s baby. Jeff was with him when they began recruiting their brothers
@@TC-dw6wg They, Jeff, George and Bob where driving around Mulholland and Tom Petty drove past...Bob had a studio set up, he and Tom were close and then George's in with Roy pulled it together. Three days and the were at it 24/7. Egos checked at the door. It is amazing to listen to Tweeter and The Monkey Man, knowing the song and all the others came together that quickly.
Who's underating him? He's a world famous musical genuis,, inducted into Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE), Songwriters Hall of Fame, just to name a few!
Key Largo -- Who Said Jeff Lynne was EVER Under-Rated????? You were not even there when ELO came out... Quit saying dumb stuff like this...
amazing, indeed! singing the late roy orbison's part in "handle with care" at the tribute to george concert.....⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
They played near me a bit back. I saw them in 1973. I was stunned how great he still sounds. I thought I’m 16 again! But alas I’m 63.
I had chills and was just thinking how amazing is this. He hasn’t lost a step. He’s a musical fountain of youth.
We who are in our 70s enjoyed the best of times, didn’t we? Those were the days!
Just being able to coordinate an orchestra and get this much great vibe out of it, is a feat of engineering in its self. I've listened to his music since the late 70's and have loved it ever since.
It's just magic.... like a dream...
Jeff Lynne is such a great Musician and has helped out our music world in so many ways.
Rock on Jeff!.
Definitely. I admire him. Unique artist.
@@81licker I too. I was a United States Marine on Okinawa in 1975, when I first heard Jeff and ELO. At 64 yrs old I still a fan. Love to return to 1975, and stay in the 70s, even repeat 4 yrs in the United States Marine Corps.
@@usmc-veteran73-77 yep! In a heartbeat, I would if I could. I can't stand today's stupid " music".
Love this music. Takes me back to simpler times.
Yes it was. I was in the United States Marine Corps when this was a hit. Memories of an old girlfriend Teri H. who lived in Jacksonville NC outside of Camp LeJeune North Carolina. Stay safe my friend during this COVID19 virus.
Jeff Lynne is a legend. Great singer, writer and musician. Thanks for all the great music.
What can I say to add to all of these Comments from other people. I am simply flabbergasted at the talents of ELO and especially of the musical genius Jeff Lynne. Fantastic songwriter, incredible producer, words seem inadequate to try to describe what he has accomplished with his music and his unbelievable Band The Electric Light Orchestra. They are amazing! I’m glad that we were lucky enough to experience their music in our lives!
There was strange magic in the music back then.. Oh how I miss it . That is why I am here.....
Definitely STRANGE MAGIC as opposed to this strange EVIL quarantine. rgds sdp from BS AS ARG.
@@zoukmadrid9321 Yes and One Designed fraud after another. always right after the Last fraud is discovered.to be a fraud. with Overlaps to cause maximum mental kaos
Anyone who writes a song like this is a genius. Pure magic...strange magic!!!!
One of the most underrated bands ever.
❤la cantante que le hace coria a Jeff❤
Como se llama?
