Collaborating on this cover with the286 was exciting, at a time when the world was going through a lot of sadness due to the pandemic. We met from a distance and with music we managed to accompany each other in that difficult time. 😘
Where do i start, the grace of a hoffner bass melded into the the analog perfection of a synth, smooth voices pulling this classic into the 21st century. Thankyou for this beautiful mesmerizing version of the song, a time when music meant somthing other than a bottom line
You hit the right feeling spot on. Gets the same shiver down my spine as when I hear this with ELO. Heard this when I was about 12-13 years old and get the same feeling now as i did back in the 70's
Thank you Steve! We (The 286) are big ELO fans and take that influence into our own songs - so we appreciate the fact you like our cover! Thanks for leaving a comment.
@@richardsutton1131 That took a lot of time between the two of us to master. Quite a few layers of sound built up there. But it was definitely justified knowing that people appreciate it!! Thank you!!!
@@The286TH-cam I’m not surprised. I’m in a band myself and I know very well how hard those songs are to get right. Jeff also had Richard Tandy of course - an absolute genius. You did them all proud!
Vielen Dank, Anna-Maria! Wirklich erfreut, dass es Ihnen gefallen hat. ELO sind eine großartige Band und dieser Song ist einer meiner Favoriten. Vielleicht gefallen Ihnen auch unsere anderen Videos unserer eigenen Songs. Wir würden gerne wissen, was Sie von ihnen haltenwürden gerne wissen, was Sie von ihnen halten
U guys were on the money man y'all sound good and the lady singer just has the beautiful voice for this aw man she's got it down and is also easy on the eyes
@@The286TH-cam It took 4 Beatles and George Martin to accomplish what Jeff Lynne has done musically all by himself. Of course, by popularity, The Beatles are no 1 but musically Jeff Lynne rules. I am a huge Beatles fan but Jeff Lynne is so much better with Harmonies, Orchestration, as an incredible Producer, singer and songwriter. Long live Jeff Lynne's ELO!!! Please Tour in 2022!!!
What a fab cover!!! Spencer, you have got the Jeff Lynne vocal totally perfect!!! Everyone was on their game for this song!! Very well done, I really enjoyed this!!
I have been listening to ELO since I was in my teens, I was lucky enough to see Jeff Lynne ELO a few years ago at Wembley, it was a fantastic experience. I've got to say you nailed that track, absolutely superb. Thank you guys.👍
Thank you very much Vaughn! Both bands (The 286 and Mr Jack) are big ELO fans, so we wanted to do the song justice. Check back again another time, we're hoping to do another ELO song soon
very very nicely done. thanks for signing up a wonderful backing singer. she did just fantastic. and i loved the keyboardist a lot. excellent group altogether. grazias from Ukraine.
I'm a big ELO fan & this is my favorite song of theirs. You guys are AWESOME! I hope that Jeff hears this cause he'd love it. Fantastic job with not just the vocals but the instrumental part as well
Really.glad you like the video Jeff, we're really.pleased with it. If you like 60s/70s music you might like a few of our other covers on TH-cam as well. Feel free to check them out!
@@The286TH-cam Hi! You are 1 of my 3 favorite coverbands. I follow you all. You bet I look you up on You Tube. I have a large library! I'll be a fan 'til I am done! Keep on makng your wonderful music! But, PLEASE, no HipHop!!😢
This is one of my favourite song, Can't get it out of my head, neither do I the tune of the song... The soft and gentle tune of Venus from the ocean...It reminds me of my Gioventu, that passed with Einstein"s clock in the rocket to the endless spacetime...I really enjoyed it and Thank you for the performance, I appreciate it. Minho from Stuttgart
A great part from the iconic album of ELO, presented very, very good. the voice is astonishing close to jeff lynn's. here is an abonnemet the best i can do...
@norbertgross837 Hi Norbert, thank you so much for your kind comments. It was a pleasure to record this song - ELO are one of our biggest musical influences! Thank you for watching
Muchas gracias Galo. Todos somos grandes fans de ELO. Espero que tengas la oportunidad de escuchar nuestras propias canciones también. Ojalá escuches la influencia de ELO. 🙌🙌🙌
@@MusicLover10538 we've had so many requests to do another ELO cover we definitely will do another. Next up we are tackling a famous Beatles song, so stay tuned for that!
Excellent cover version, of this great ELO song, you all should be so proud of your achievements, looking forward to hearing more ELO.covers, can I recommend “one summer dream “ it would be perfect for you.John, uk
I love how the third verse's vox start late, so it sounds like a shortened verse but it's not. It's an interesting phrasing choice there, always thought that part of the song was pretty neat. I have loved this tune since I was a small child, and you guys did an absolutely fantastic job!
@The286TH-cam (I can't hit reply to you for some reason) I think it may have been intentional, especially considering the second line of the third verse which is different melodically and rhythmically than anything else in the song. But if it was an accident, it was a happy one.
Absolutely beautiful rendition! Unbelievably gorgeous! One lyric correction. I know that it sounds like Jeff was singing, "Walking on a wave she came" but it's actually wave's chicane. 💕
Thanks so much for watching Michael. That's actually what I say in the recording (Spencer here!). Looks like I nailed Jeff's vague pronunciation 😅😅😅 Joking aside, thank you so much for watching, we are big ELO fans in The 286

Madeleine is a young Stevie Nicks. I can't take my eyes off her. Great cover! Love to see Jeff/ELO getting the love.
Gorgeous Maddy ❤️🎼❤️
Barely can hear her vocal
Nothing like Stevie nicks
@@marksandford1566 harmonizing. Well done.
Looks like my first girlfriend. Everyone said she looked like Stevie!
they did a great job, i def diidnt get Stevie vibes you can barely hear her.
You hit the right feeling spot on. Gets the same shiver down my spine as when I hear this with ELO. Heard this when I was about 12-13 years old and get the same feeling now as i did back in the 70's
Excellent cover. I never get tired of hearing this song.
Thanks Bernard, yes I agree, it's a timeless classic. Thanks for watching!!!
Anybody else crushin' on Madeleine, or is it just me? Great work, guys! LOVE IT!!!!
Thanks Ryan, I will pass this on to Madeleine, just to see her blush 😊 Thanks for subscribing as well!
Very rare for me to rate an ELO cover but this is bloody awesome
Thanks Steve, genuinely appreciate that. If you get a chance have a listen to our own stuff, would love to know what you think
This is my favorite song ever.
I hope we did it justice! ELO is a big influence on our own music.
Thank you so much for watching!
Brilliant 👍 I’m sure Jeff would approve! 😎😎😎😎
Wow thanks Frank! Very kind of you. Thanks for watching!!
I love ELO with all my heart! You knocked this out of the ball park 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️
Wow thanks! They are one of our biggest musical influences, so we wanted to do the song justice. Thanks for the comment
I agree! I love ELO too!
I can't get Mike Rowe on the bass in the top right corner out of my head.... J/K Great song and performance!!!
I can see the likeness! Thanks for watching, and leaving a comment. Feel free to watch our other videos!
Wow. Impressive. As a life long ELO and Jeff Lynne FANatic……this was well done. I don’t find many people able to do his music justice. Great job.
Thank you! We've had so many great comments on this cover. We are big ELO fans ourselves
@@The286TH-cam I can tell! And you’re welcome. 😊
Absolutely beautiful version....soft and dreamy like the original...many thanks.

I'm sure he would be delighted with your cover ... I am. You captured the soul of the song.
Thank you Petra. It is a beautiful song. Thank you for leaving a message 💙
@@The286TH-cam shared
One of my favorite songs. It’s great when a cover can bring a new perspective without distorting the original melody and feel. Lovely. ❤
@@DrKMindFit Such a nice comment - thank you!
An absolute classic ELO song, performed flawlessly by Spencer and the Team .. great harmonies 🎶🎤♥️🎤🎶
Thanks Rich! Hopefully posting another cover next month - Beatles this time. Spencer
Eldorado is a very underrated album of course this was its biggest hit
Super well done, needs to be listened to more than once to be truly appreciated.
Thank you Daniel! Yes I agree, it goes.to show hard impressive the original song was!!!
Congratulation to this great band !!!one of the best ELO songs!! 2- 17-2021

You stayed true to the original. Thank you for that. You all did a great job on this song.
Thank you Roy. It was important to us to get it as close to the original as possible
an amazing cover. I can't listen to this enough and "i can't get it out of my head". So true to the music. Great job ALL of you musicians involved. :)
I promise... this is one of my absolute favourite bands... after ELO
What a lovely thing to say - thank you so much William 🙌

It's not easy to sound this close to the original. Very nice.
Thanks Mike, really nice of you to say that.
As an ELO super fan, that was superb!!
Thank you Richard, I'm really glad you enjoyed it! We'll aim to do another ELO cover soon! Thanks for leaving a comment! Spencer

ELO is a good choice.
Good job.
Congratulations. 👍👍👍👍
Thanks Franky!
Need this on streaming apps like spotify so I can listen it more often 🤩
