Man, I love how knowledgeable you guys are in your reactions. It's great to watch people that actually understand the music.
The thing about Jeff Lynne, is a surprise. Every track has one, play them and find out. The master of the pop song.
Another one of the GREATEST bands of the 70's! Heavy Beatles influence too. From the Same town as Black Sabbath & Moody Blues! Also friends with Bonzo and Plant, same area...TIGHT ROPE---NIGHTRIDER---SO FINE---DO YA next please...
Please do a live performance by ELO, especially Don’t bring me down, I’m positive y’all have heard it before!
ELO was the first prog band I ever listened to at 7 years old and still love them. Jeff Lynne's voice is one of my all-time faves. Great pick! Mr. Blue Sky I highly recommend.
I'm telling you- ELO Live at Glastonbury. Full orchestra. With great guest string players.
U guys gotta do more ELO😅
More ELO please!
What I like about Jeff Lynne's voice is that while it isn't flashy, it's so warm and full right there in the middle that it's perfect for all the other elements they build around it...
..."women what you gonna do. You've destroyed all the virtues that the Lord gave you". What a great line...ELO is awesome!
THAT is the closest I've seen you 2 go before stopping to make a comment. You were just plain grooving to the vibe and didn't want to stop it.
My favorite ELO song has to be "Mr. Blue Sky."
Jeff Lynne and Richard Tandy (not to mention the SUPERB Bev Bevan on the drum kit!). E.L.O. were a mid-late '70s radio staple!
[Sort-of an expansion of his (short-lived) previous band: The Move...]
Jeff Lynne has never shied away from being known as a HUGE Beatles fan/follower (as attested to by his future membership in/work with with (the "retro-superband")
The Traveling Wilburys, for instance -"future" from the point in time that THIS song was recorded (and E.L.O. existed!)-),
but it is apparent from, not only, musical cues, across E.L.O.'s discography, but (for instance) in things such as a lyrical allusion in THIS song::
(the line)
"There's a hole in my head
where the rain comes in."
is a lyrical reference to The Beatles' "Fixing A Hole" [opening lines:
"I'm fixing a hole
where the rain gets in
and stops my mind from wandering..."]
...which, at THIS point in popular music, something like🤔🤔 75-100% of listeners would have, at least, been familiar with (if not recognized the 'reference use' "first listen."🤷).
...so: "there's that." 😛😜
Personally, I, always, had more of a preference for EARLIER Electric Light Orchestra material and the "harder-edged" side of their sound [THIS song was a great place to start, I.M.O.!].
I will recommend:
"Don't Bring Me Down" (kind of a "you want disco?? ...this is "rock 'n' roil disco!" 😛😜"call-out"/"response" record; at thee time...🤷)
l
"So Fine" [unfairly ignored, nowadays! 🤘🤘]
"Do Ya" [A rocker!]
and
"Turn To Stone" [good "meld" of: Lynne's Beatles obsession, with "rockier" tendencies and "orchestra"-toe arrangements and ideas!]
Now try “Mr Bluesky”, “Turn to Stone”, “Sweet Talkin Woman”,”Don’t Bring Me Down” and “Shine A Little Love” All 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
TIGHTROPE might be the coolest tune of the 20th Century but I'd recommend TURN TO STONE first. ELO was the shiznit.
An absolute MUST HEAR,, Electric Light Orchestra "Tightrope"...TRUST ME!!
ELO is a classic, period.
They were an entity to themselves as far as their genre. Ask most 50+ adults to name a song of theirs and they will be stumped. However play any of their multiple hit songs and that same person will sing along word for word.
Kudos for testing the waters with them!
Look forward to every post you two post!
Spot on.
Why is everyone leaving out the ELO lip-synching controversy that ended them? Odd.
@@Greg-io1ip - "Ended" them? They used backing vocal tracks when live to capture the studio sound. Lynne ended the band, not the lip synching.
Not the only symphonic prog band by a long shot.
Genesis, Yes, King Crimson, ELP, Kansas, Alan Parsons Project, Moody Blues, Procol Harum, RENAISSANCE!!, etc all used classical and symphonic influences to shape their music. Many of those bands used the MELLOTRON to recreate that orchestral sound.
ELO was good,but hardly unique.
And what's this with 50+ adults not being able to name their songs?? Lmfao . I was buying ELO albums at the age of 14-15 in the mid 70s. We Boomers grew up with them. Are you freaking kidding me? 🤪🤪🤪🤪
Nailed it!
I saw ELO way back in 1972 and everyone left with a smile on their face. Goodtime music with a different sound.
ELO are one of those great, underrated bands of the 70s/80s. John Lennon once famously said in an interview that he liked them a lot and that their sound was similar to what the Beatles would have become had they stayed together. Another good one fellas! 🤜
Their songs were great, but they got busted lip syncing in concert, ended them. Real facts that should be mentioned.
Underrated!??? They were on the radio every other song in the mid 70's! They were MASSIVE at the time...where were you???
@@Greg-io1ip Somehow not buying that. Arguments and lawsuits over songwriting credits is what did it. Groucutt and Bevan felt slighted by Lynne and that's what ended the Orchestra. Lynne and Tandy are the only original pieces left performing.
70s radio was full of ELO, they had so many songs that became a part of our lives through thier long string of radio hits.
I never get tired of saying how glad I am to have been a teenager in the 70s and a child of the 60s ! Not only did we have the best music , But there were tons of it ! So many rock bands and different genre's to choose from ! ✌️
Awesome. In 1 day you drop 2 artists I never have gotten tired of and still listen to: Van Morrison AND ELO. Keep going with those.
versatile band, creative, try tightrope, living thing, strange magic, last train to london, dont bring me down, showdown, sweet talking woman, telephone line, twiight, yours truly, ticket to v moon, hold on tight, had mre top 40 hits van any othr band, 70s n 80s, jeff still performs, all songs by jeff, lead guitar, rythem n lead vocal n producer. enjoy!
Jeff Lynne had to be Mozart in a prior lifetime. Pure genius and still doing it today at over 70 years old. When you react to Mr Blue Sky, make sure it's the album version so that you can hear every melodic change at the end. Almost makes me tear up every time. Anything from the Zoom album is epic, but all of Lynne's work is nothing short of fantastic.
Closer to 80
@@1bigrowdy Nope, 75, right in the middle.
@@Cosmo-Kramer well if you want to get technical once past your 75 you are closer to 80 than 70./but you can have it your way not a problem
@@1bigrowdy But the OP didn't say he had just turned 70, he said he was "over 70". Which was a fact. Is that technical enough for ya, wisenheimer?
ELO--primarily Jeff Lynn--is known for combining rock and classical, and has a deep catalog of albums, hits, and great records. Jeff is known for his writing and producing, and has worked with other famous artists.
I suggest starting ELO's their early, rawer, and athletic early incarnation, with Roll Over Beethoven--their breakout hit--which combines Beethoven's Ninth and Chuck Berry. I would love to hear La's reaction to its hyper, rolling drumbeat in the instrumental breaks. And Lynn sings like a man possesed. All the best.
Sweet talkin woman.... Can't get it out of my head..... Birmingham blues.... Telephone line.... Mr. Blue sky..... Steppin out..... Eldorado.... .. Out of the blue album.. every song they do is EPIC.
If you were asked to play in the Traveling Willburys, you were already a legend. Jeff Lynne is one.
Do Ya, Telephone line, Boy Blue, Can't get it out of my head and about a hundred more.
Listen to that fucking production and arrangement. For some reason, all of a sudden, those keys remind me of Daft Punk (Hey, you guys need to listen to them). Yes, those strings come in and out always adding to the dynamic, interest build and diversity, then a little dissonance or oddity is tossed in, a wrench in the works, but quickly pulled out of back to the groove. This is the profound and subtle song writing mastery of Jeff Lynne. Pure genius.
Tightrope is where you should start guys. Or Mr. Blue Sky
ELO has a pot of gold in their music.
Black Sabbath & ELO are from Birmingham, UK. Both have positive messages with completely different styles.🙂
Fantastic band my suggestion is Tightrope with unbelievable orchestration
Great song
2:55 dope as heyyyll coming outta the bridge 💥🔥
I hope you get to the Wembly live show. Any live show. Youll see.
Prob one of the catchiest songs Ive ever heard
I'd love to hear about your music experience. I looked at your About page, and all it says is you are music producers in CA. I know one of you plays the drums from listening to your commentary. What music background do you have? What music have you produced? Was it all a specific genre? It would be really cool to see you guys make a Bio video of yourselves. I really enjoy your channel!
Must watch live!
So many great tunes.
Well guys back in day I had to take bus to get the 8-track tape and that was best thing to own music! Had to save the money including the bus fare thank you song.
Love you guys- enjoy this rabbit hole!
Great review guys should try shangri la next brilliant thanks guys ❤
Mr Blue Sky by ELO was found by scientists to be the happiest song. I totally agree it is. You guys will love it for sure. Definitely the studio version, you get the full effect.
❤ELO❤
Keep those Elo reactions coming !! “Livin thing”, “Mr Blue Sky”, “Telephone Line”, “Do Ya”, “Showdown” are some other great songs but they have so many unique songs that are simply awesome !
Jeffy Lynne the lead singer, writer, composer, producer etc was a master at turning Beatlesque pop melodies and outfitting them with symphonic prog orchestration. Their 2 best and peak albums were Eldorado and Face the Music, which this song is from. There is some great live video of them during this era, you can see the cello and violin players perform, good stuff 👍
Everything ELO is gold. The obvious would be Mr Blue Sky for sheer audacity but a personal favourite is from a later album (Time) entitled Ticket to the Moon. Jeff Lynne is a musical genuis who still has his voice live decades later.
I'd like to see a reaction to "Rockaria"-heavy rock with operatic interludes-it'll help blow your mind!
This band is so awesome! Check out "Tightrope " and "Overture/Fire On High" next. Also, do some Elton John. Check out "Have Mercy On the Criminal", "Harmony", "Burn Down the Mission", "Levon", and "Take Me To the Pilot".
There's no "Overture" before "Fire On High".
@@Cosmo-Kramer Yea...still it's a banger
"Strange Magic", "Tightrope", "Turn to Stone", "Telephone Line", "Shine a Little Love" and "Fire On High" are my requests for "NEXT". Love your channel.
I grew up hearing ELO tunes and love them. The lyrics, in this one, tho. Could you , also, comment on Jungian theory of projection? : D
Last Train to London is a good one as well. But, there are many others you’d enjoy as well.
Great times…great band…so much fun listening to them. Thank you🇦🇺
check out their instrumental Fire on High... best intro of any song from that era !
I love their version of Roll Over Bethoven. Great band with a lot of range - classical, rock, prog, pop.
Elo is a great band. Thanks!
Man. This song never gets old. Playlist forever
You guys should do the live version. Any ELO songs, actually.
ELO Ma-Belle, Do-Ya & Fire on High
ELO has strings in their band even while traveling, hence the name Electric light Orchestra. The number of strings is greatly reduced during travel as opposed to recording.
Great band telephone line live n this one live are great songs
I saw ELO in 1986 at Wembley stadium and to see them live was phenomenal. Have you heard ELO's last train to London. You will love it. Keep rocking my friends 🏴🇬🇧
A really revolutionary concept for a rock band to have almost a full standing orchestra on a permanent basis. Visionary! Thanks for your reaction.
Bros, you should watch one of their songs from the concert "Live at Wembley"... it shows what goes into making this music. 😎
There is a line in one of the verses that is a reference to a Beatles song, of whom Jeff Lynne was a huge fan. And in fact The Beatles song is one that McCartney wrote and sang lead on, Fixing A Hole where the rain gets in. And in fact, he collaborated with McCartney once the Beatles broke up and they had a hit together which I absolutely love, I've Had Enough.
Saw them at Carnegie hall years ago with the NY philharmonic. Tremendous show! Love your guys channel. Three homeruns with today's selections!
You two are the BEST‼️
Y'all should go back to their first track to really hit the radio, and it was jaw droppingly unexpected. They covered "Roll Over Beethoven", the Chuck Berry classic, in a very unexpected way. It's on ELO 2.
Rockaria!, So Fine, and Do Ya from the New World Record album are straight up fire 🔥
Thank you both for your reactions. Have you reacted to ELO's "Roll Over Beethoven", "All Over the World", "Don't Bring Me Down", or "Showdown". And the list goes on. They have ALOT to react to. Lol
This was their ELO debut.
ELO has earned its reputation
This was my fav song for atleast a month
“Don’t Bring Me Down” “Mr. Blue Sky” the guy is a pop genius. Jeff Lynne. Also in Travelling Willburys (who y’all definitely might check out).
Orchestra Rock.
La and Chee, you have one of the best selections of songs of classic rock by any reactors I’ve seen! Kudos, and I look forward to sharing your journey through that vast catalogue of great music.
This was my favorite skating rink jam when it came out. And, yes, I married her...
La & Che, glad you dug this song, I knew it would surprise you. But in the future, please grab the link from the original album, as this one is the single cut and it's missing the first 20 seconds or so. Next from ELO I suggest the opening track to their 1976 album, A New World Record. The song is called, *"Tightrope".* You fellas will love it!
❤👍
Perfect phase-shift
ELO live is incredible! Jeff Lynne still has the great vocals,and the Orchestra is an extra bonus!Don't Bring Me Down,and Living Thing are great sounds,great reaction guys!
"Don't bring me down"
Nicely done boys!
Try Fire On High from them. An instrumental by them, but it’s a classic. You will love the orchestration and production. ELO, Van Morrison and Dr John. Another round tripper for La & Che. 🔥
Can't Get It Out Of My Head, please
One of my first 8 track tapes i bought. So many great hits by this incredible band!!
For me, 8 track tapes and ELO go together like a hand in glove!
Very good, very underated band
OHHHHH YES, SO THIS WAS ONE OF THE BIG HITS OFF OF THEIR ALBUM ( FACE THE MUSIC ) 😊 THE OTHER WAS : STRANGE MAGIC
So glad you guys have gotten a taste of ELO. It is a glorious rabbit hoe to go down. I would recommend "Strange Magic", or "Can't Get it Out of My Head" from their earlier period, or "Tightrope", "Telephone Line", or "Shangri-La" from New World Record, before you hit anything from the Out of the Blue album!
Yeah the El dorado album is pretty good.
I swear this song is about my ex. LOL
Mine too 😂😂😂

Saw them on the Face the Music tour. So good, no freaking reserved seats.
Only came across those fir Billy Joel Glass Houses tour. I was like WTH is this. Im stuck seated here? Can't go to the stage? Lololol
👍😊
Whatever that effect is call responding in the chorus so gd funky
CLASSIC....!
This drummer toured with Black Sabbath in the early 80`s after Bill Ward left to get help.
mr. blue sky is probably my favorite elo song ..always reminded me of the beatles music...great production! jeff lynn went on to produce george harrison records and also the traveling wilburys..."showdown" and "fire on high" also wonderous
Lynne, not. Lynn.
Live versions of ELO are really worth checking out
Dave Mason & Jim Krueger All Along the Watchtower Live
Great Song ❤
Banda inglesa tan talentosa , todo el equipo musical humano funciona extraordinario y sincronizado , el sonido es tan poderoso y unico ,todo esta bajo un controlador musical , supongo que es el cerebro fundador , las ideas de Roy Wood y Jeff Lynne.
Grs por vuestra reaccion a un gran hit Charts en muchos paises. Saludos from Chile
Fire on high is classic early ELO. Tightrope is fantastic, along with almost any track from the album Out of the Blue.
