The bass line is what sells this song. It sets the mood for a cloudy disco club and picking up someone just by dancing with them and not even talking.

This is the track that many fans try using to downplay the album (because of the disco bass line).... It's a good album & it gets wrongly downplayed by many fans...

Jeff Lynne and Elo have been so vastly underrated over the years -I think even though their music is mostly 'middle of the road' pop music,they have produced some quality songs over the last few decades.Jeff Lynne is such a talented performer and so deserves more recognition than he has had in his career.'Discovery' must rate as one of my favourite albums.I just love every song on there.This is definitely a favourite with 'Mr Blue Sky' and 'Concerto for a Rainy Day'.I see that Jeff has been nominated to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and rightly so.Such a great artist,songwriter and performer.He and Elo deserve it.

Lyrics: It was 9-29, 9-29 back street big city. The sun was going down, there was music all around It felt so right. It was one of those nights, one of those nights when you feel the world stop turnin', you were standing There, there was music in the air. I should have been Away, but I knew I'd have to stay. Last train to London, just headin' out, Last train to London, just leavin' town. But I really want tonight to last forever I really wanna be with you, Let the music play on down the line tonight. It was one of those nights, one of those nights when you feel the fire is burnin', everybody was there, everybody to share It felt so right. There you were on your own, lookin' like you were The only one around, I had to be with you, nothin' else that I could do, I should have been away, but I knew I'd have to stay. Last train to London, just headin' out, Last train to London, just leavin' town. But I really want tonight to last forever I really wanna be with you. Let the music play on down the line tonight. Underneath a starry sky, time was still but hours Must really have rushed by, I didn't realize, But love was in your eyes, I really should have Gone, but love went on and on... Last train to London, just headin' out, Last train to London, just leavin' town. But I really want tonight to last forever I really wanna be with you. Let the music play on down the line tonight.

You'd never hear lyrics like these in a modern song. Nobody feels this free any more. Maybe never again. Sometimes I think not having to buy albums in a shop would not have been so bad. Or listening intently for that one song on the radio to finally catch its name. The internet gave us a lot, but it's taken away a lot more.

Recuerdo la primera vez que escuché esta joya, era noviembre de 2019, me estaba bañando y el aleatorio de KZbin puso esta canción. Esa noche iba a salir con mis amigos, me encantó tanto que iba con uno de mis audífonos puestos mientras platicaba con mis amigos y caminábamos por la avenida principal. Fue una cosa increíble, disfrutar tanto de una noche como cualquier otra solo por ir escuchando esta pieza...

[@alfonsoarciniegas3040]

Tengo 53 años y voy a verlos a San Diego, CA en Nov 12. Único concierto que va a dar ELO en el mundo este año, Last train to London y canción favorita de rock en todos los tiempos, la llevo escuchando desde que salió su álbum Discovey en 1979

[@Mexico23423]

yo la escuche por primera en 2019 estaba en youtube y por el titulo me dio curiosidad (en esas epocas escuchaba mas queen o ac dc) entonces en mi mente dije algo como: cmo me va a gustar una cancion disco, entonces la cambie. Grave error y poco despues me la tope de nuevo y la escuche por completo, entonces descubri otro de mis gustos en la musica y cuando la escucho me recuerda mucho a una ciudad porque fui alli de vacaciones y durante ese tiempo escuchaba esta cancion a diario.

probably around august 2011. i was 15 and i was at my art class, my mom just left my violent (now gone) dad and i felt like some type of healthy happiness for the first time in years. so one of my classmates asked my teacher if she could put some music through my teacher's stereo, he said yes cause he was really cool and let us do any artistic thing we felt like doing. right after she got bored of her musical choices, i ran and through bluetooth i played this song at maxim volume. everyone in the class loved it, and my teacher congratulated me for picking up this song. i was really obsessed with last train to london back then because i was in a very hopeful state of mind.
