      @@personalcheeses8073 Funny... I remember bringing the album home on the day it was released. Three songs in, sleeve in hand, I caught up on the joke: very disco. As many artists back then, Jeff Lynne was trying to ride the disco train. But he came a bit late to the party. At the time this album was slashed in the music media and I must confess that I wasn't impressed that much either. After albums like Eldorado, Face The Music, A New World Record and Out Of The Blue it just didn't live up to the standards Jeff Lynne set.
      It took me quite a few years to really appreciate this album.

    As a young kid in the 70s in London this song is so atmospheric; because of what it evokes (for me at least) hot summer nights, London suburbs, Brick buildings, weeds, grassy school playing fields outside 50s school buildings, heat, office workers going home in shirts, ice creams, wearing t-shirt, (short) shorts and sneakers/flip-flops

    This is my favorite ELO track, the disco beat is great, but it is the strings, together with the heartwarming lyrics ("But I really want to make this last forever, I really want to be with you") that gets to me most. The best disco music had a loving sould behind it, expressed beautifully by great musical ability.
    Many thanks for reviewing this Jamal.

      That's what I was trying to think of...."Boogie Nights"! Recognized the bass line and groove! Thanks, Ken! I, too, had never heard this song, and was just transitioning from radio to the record biz in '79/'80 when this came out. But, it peaked at only #39 in early '80 here in the states, so it may not have been a hit in many cities/regions. I guess everyone had to put out at least one pandering disco nod!!! ;- )
