Elo fantástic 😊

i have never heard a bad word said about ELO. not even a "i don't really like their sound".

My first single bought when i was 10.

The diary of Horace Spunt.

I met a boy when I was 11, he was what I imagined horase looked like ❤❤ He was so sweet but was killed in a bike accident, I've never forgot him or the song xx❤

The Beatles passed the baton on to ELO and boy, did they run with it. 😁

Of ALL ELO's songs, this is definitely one I would absolutely love to listen to sans the vocals - the music track is amazing and those strings are out of this world!

Going to see ELO in sept at msg. Hope they do this song.

God bless Richard Tandy😢

Mr blue sky based tune in 1979

Why was Saturday not mentioned in the diary?

Música bonita ❤

I took the advice to go out and find a wife , and 35 years later , she's still here.❤

My sister used to force me to listen to this song when I was 6 and every time the last whispers of Horace Wimp Horace Wimp! finished out the song I was petrified. Song left scars 😮

ELO....BIRMINGHAM'S FINEST!

Every single song is a masterpiece. The fact that people don’t talk about Electric Light Orchestra more absolutely baffles me. The absolute art that goes into every detail of their songs should be something all musicians should take note from.

for some reason i just love this ,

Me And Julio - The Diary Of Horance Wimp

How can anyone not like ELO Discovery and Out of the Blue were outstanding albums ❤

My favourite song on the ELO discovery album!

Day 6994. 2 x 13 x 269. Raw honey and all of my urine til 1.00pm then dried figs and spinach leaves and peas and grapes and apple then more urine then fresh fruit and vegetables and other foods at 11.00pm. No change.

Look at the graphics! This guy is Veracoxha and this is how he made all the wonders of the world! Anybody notice them keeping the Sabbath holy? No Saturday!

Richard, thank you for your enormous contribution to ELO. Say hi to Kelly, Hugh and the others. We will still have the 70s forever!!

EVERYBODY IS HORACE

I still miss J.B. & W.D!

Horace certainly had to hurry out to the bus!

never knew there was a video! I knew this song was too good to not have an official video

March 2024 Still a great tune

Jeff you absolute genius...

I don’t know which came first, the CHICKEN or the EGG… but this is eerily similar to that Monty Python sketch where Micheal Palin (Horace Wimp) goes to a marriage counselor (Eric Idle) to save his marriage - only to discover his wife and the counselor are having an affair (and right in front of him, I might add) - and when he’s told to leave the office (so they can continue having their blatant affair) it’s Horace’s conscience, or perhaps it’s God (voiced by John Cleese) who tries to prompt him to be a man… go back in there and pull your finger out!! He does - although IMMEDIATELY he’s told to GO AWAY again (which of course he does) and the sketch ends with a giant 30 ton weight dropping on him. God has had enough. End of sketch.

Think this song is so effective because weve all been horace in our lifes shy and awkward its brilliant

I’m pretty sure Kelly Groucutt sang lead on this?

A powerful song for when you’re scared of loving someone who you know deserves the best of you. This really helps me

It’s one of my all-time favorite tracks from one of my all-time favorite albums-memories of my childhood. However the video always grated on me somewhat because it fails to do justice to Kelly Groucutt’s extraordinary lead vocal-Lynne shares vocal duties with him on this track (as he did many others), but Groucutt opens the song and gives it it’s heart, at least to me. And it’s Kelly who is responsible for all the soaring operatic vocals in so many of ELO’s greatest tracks. That’s him adding thrilling vocal layers to the celestial “Shine a Little Love”. A brilliant vocalist, bassist and musician who never received the renown he deserved, until his untimely death. R.I.P.

This One strange song thanks ELO 💫you ALL have A ROCKN GREAT TIMELESS AMAZING REPERTOIRE! CHEERS! IT'S ALL SWEET! AS ALL OTHER SLEEK POLISHED INCREDIBLE TRACKS! NOSTALGIA IS IS THE ART MAGICO OF A WONDROUS CHAMBERFILLED MELODIC VIVAELOVOYAGE OF THAT SERENDIPIDITY HAD NO CHANCE ON THESE EPIC FAMILIAR ROCKN LEGENDS. THANKS ELO! 🎉

Good video! I shot and directed this music video for Horace Wimp in 1987! Won a first place award with it too! Check out my visual representation of this great song. I am the "VOICE FROM ABOVE"! kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGLXh2pvr9B0aJI&lc=Ugw3it5jB_-HZmK1Myl4AaABAg

I love the way this song initially comes across as silly and wacky, then right at the end of the final verse it creeps up on you and breaks your heart.

3:34 ~ Why was Saturday left out of the chorus lyrics?

I have always loved this song.

Jeff Lynne is the SEXIEST THING IN THE MUSIC BIZ. 👍😍 And when you can SEE his face, you see how GORGEOUS he really is, ESPECIALLY WITH THIS HAIRCUT. 👏💞💓🛸🌎👨‍👨‍👧‍👦

No Saturday because ELO keep Shabbat

I'm glad ELO held up the flag of Beatlesque music in the 1970s and 80s and I'm glad Field Music has been doing so in the 21st century.

This is the song that got me into ELO back in 1980 was 8yrs old still brings a smile to my face 😊

Back in the early 80s in a cul-de-sac with about 16 houses, 2 of my friends, we would play ELO albums loud to the whole street and most of the households would listen and sing along with us…except the Campbells and the Griffins 3 doors up….older couples….we couldn’t wait for the next album to come out…How time has flown. 😢😢😊

This is from the video version of Discovery that was hawked around the TV networks and channels of the world. Imagine - a full video album in 1979. How far ahead of the game was this band?

We will never get this back but I am so lucky and happy I was around

Love this song reminds me off being young and having great times

oh my! they would of been my favorite neighbors for sure!
