Первое,что я записал на свежекупленный кассетник в далеком 1983-м было "Secret message". Тогда мне было 13 лет. До сих пор слушаю ELO.

I am Japanese. I was 14 years old when I discovered this song. I felt something unfathomably fascinating, but I had no friends around me who understood it. Decades later, I have listened to many different genres of music, but even listening to it again now, the mysterious charm of this song has not faded at all. However, I sometimes wonder how I would have approached it if I had mixed it with live orchestration.

Hi. I am South-American. My case is very similar to yours because the first time I watched that video on TV I was 13 years-old and I was fascinated with the music and the video…. I began to love all those “exotic”, mysterious and beautiful women, wow!

Hi there. If you're referring to the song 'Secret Messages' I don't think it has a particular meaning except what you wish it to be. For myself I take it as a relationship between me and a lover and what it may hold both now and in the future as in the line "There's danger ahead" etc. Try listening and putting your own spin on it 😀

Я русский. И мне тоже было 14 когда появилась эта песня. Это было сногсшибательно! Ну и то, что я не знал английского языка было преимуществом - я воспринимал голос солиста ещё одним музыкальным инструментом. :)

Some facts about Jeff Lynne (ELO)...First, he is a very humble man, simply because this Music Genius is not interested in fame, the limelight, and money, he just loves to create great music. Jeff Lynne is one of the most versatile musicians ever, this is why he is considered by his peers to be among the greatest. He didn't stick to one style of music because, after decades, it gets boring. Jeff has done progressive Rock, Symphonic Rock - Pop, New wave, and Disco. Everything he does turns to gold. He even flirted with Country music. From 1972 to 1986 (During 14 years) Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra has had more top 40 hits than any other group in the world... 51 years later they still play in sold-out Arenas, festivals and Stadiums. During Jeff Lynne's ELO 2019 Tour, many reviews agreed in saying they are the best live Classic Rock Band in the world still touring and Jeff Lynne is a Music Genius( From Forbes Magazine and the Washington Post). ELO is in the Rock Hall of Fame. Lynne is on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame and Birmingham Walk OF Fame. Jeff Lynne’s ELO won the Best Classic Rock Band plus Lynne won the best Songwriter award ( ASCAP ) in 2019 for his fantastic contribution over the years. In October of 2020, Jeff Lynne has been made an officer of The Order Of The British Empire for his extraordinary contribution to music. He previously has received three Ivor Novello Awards, which celebrate songwriters and composers, including the award for outstanding services to British music. He created the best Super Group of all time with his best friend George Harrison, The Traveling Wilburys. The Legends in the Music Industry call Jeff Lynne the best overall Musician ever and a Producer Extraordinaire. Jeff Lynne has written and produced many hit songs for music legends like George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Joe Walsh, Brian Wilson, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Bryan Adams, Aerosmith, Del Shannon, the Everly Brothers, The Beatles, and so many others...

Bought my first ELO album in 1977. Now aged 60 and 14 albums later the music is still as fresh and unique as ever. IMOHO Jeff Lynne created one of the most unique and crytically under rated bands in British rock history and still continues to improve and improvise 43 years on.

Wow, 37 years ago!....look how young they all were...A delightful gem, 1983's Secret Messages album. Jeff Lynne (Lead Vocals/Guitar), Richard Tandy (Keyboards), Bev Bevan (Drums), Kelly Groucutt (Cello) and Mik Kaminski (Violin). This was pretty much the last of Kelly and Mik, they barely hung in there until the end leaving ELO as a trio for the rest of their run. Reportedly album and ticket sales were slow for the "Time' tour and this marked the beginning of the end of ELO. Contractually, Jeff and the boys coughed up one more album, Balance of Power in 1986. This album was delightful but received very little promotion from CBS. At this point they all just wanted out. Secret Messages is outstanding and has plenty of pop rock hooks to keep you busy for 47 minutes. And, it did receive a boost in sales when the Coffee Growers Cooperative used the track "Hold On Tight" to blitz radio and TV by advertising the benefits of drinking coffee with this blaring in the background! ! Balance of Power on the other hand delivered a few superb tracks full of the usual Jeff riffs but the strings were all but gone throughout the album. You can tell the minute the stylus hits the vinyl that this thing was slapped together with drum machines and duct tape. The single "Calling America' was ELO's last gasp that peaked at an impressive No. 18 (not bad for a band that's wheels were about to fall off) on the Billboard singles chart and had an accompanying MTV video that was tragically, barely rotated. No fault to Jeff, he wanted to grow and experiment, and for the next 37 years he continued to awe and delight the world with nothing but brilliance. If you like The Electric Light Orchestra, you may like the solo albums that a few of it's members released over the years. Richard Tandy got together with Dave Morgan and released the LP 'Earthrise' in 1986, Kelly Groucutt released "Kelly' in 1982 (Which is quite good and features several ELO alums) and Mik Kaminski released 'No Cause For Alarm' under the name 'Violinski' in 1979. I own all all of these and they stand on their own merit very well. Here is the news.....S!

1983 on #mymusicalroadto50 Electric Light Orchestra - Secret Messages Since getting “Out of the Blue” and “Discovery” and managing to acquire most of their back catalogue during this time, I’d got “Time” from my sister for my ninth birthday, so I was ready when this album was released in ‘83. I was never keen on the singles they released post Xanadu though, and much preferred the album tracks. Ok so this was eventually released as a single, but when I bought it in Woolworths they’d only released “Rock and Roll is King” which I didn’t really like at all. So upon putting the needle down and hearing this track it felt like my faith in the band had been restored. I like this one a lot.

Some facts about Jeff Lynne (ELO)...First, he is a very humble man, simply because this Music Genius is not interested in fame, the limelight, and money, he just loves to create great music. Jeff Lynne is one of the most versatile musicians ever, this is why he is considered by his peers to be among the greatest. He didn't stick to one style of music because, after decades, it gets boring. Jeff has done progressive Rock, Symphonic Rock - Pop, New wave, and Disco. Everything he does turns to gold. He even flirted with Country music. From 1972 to 1986 (During 14 years) Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra has had more top 40 hits than any other group in the world... 51 years later they still play in sold-out Arenas, festivals and Stadiums. During Jeff Lynne's ELO 2019 Tour, many reviews agreed in saying they are the best live Classic Rock Band in the world still touring and Jeff Lynne is a Music Genius( From Forbes Magazine and the Washington Post). ELO is in the Rock Hall of Fame. Lynne is on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame and Birmingham Walk OF Fame. Jeff Lynne’s ELO won the Best Classic Rock Band plus Lynne won the best Songwriter award ( ASCAP ) in 2019 for his fantastic contribution over the years. In October of 2020, Jeff Lynne has been made an officer of The Order Of The British Empire for his extraordinary contribution to music. He previously has received three Ivor Novello Awards, which celebrate songwriters and composers, including the award for outstanding services to British music. He created the best Super Group of all time with his best friend George Harrison, The Traveling Wilburys. The Legends in the Music Industry call Jeff Lynne the best overall Musician ever and a Producer Extraordinaire. Jeff Lynne has written and produced many hit songs for music legends like George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Joe Walsh, Brian Wilson, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Bryan Adams, Aerosmith, Del Shannon, the Everly Brothers, The Beatles, and so many others...

Best Music ever from the 70s and 80s ELO
@digitsoundz248013 жыл бұрын
@theflyingwing not going to even pretend to understand the many subtleties in ELOs music or videos, but as a longtime audio engineer and music artist myself I would say that in 1983 these guys were very advanced in their utilization of electronics and effects within the music and the ability to communicate ever so softly with it. This song has stuck with me ever since I first heard it when I was back in High school in the 80's, don't think I realized the depth of the song until now. Cheers!

DOn't you think the production is rather thin and horrible? I imagine how this song would sound if it was produced the way he did Out of The Blue. Meaty with the bass jumping out and drums sounding great. It would be far better wouldn't it?

One of the best rock songs of the 80's. Lush, layered and built on a rockabilly core. I also love the morse code that can be heard in the background. Cool & clever touch.

@@MrJohng2001It spells out "E.L.O". 😁 It is the second time they'd used it as it had been used in the song(s), "Ocean Breakup/King of the Universe" from the album, "On the Third Day"

Have always loved this song. As a songwriter vocal arranger and producer ; Lynne is endlessly fascinating in the way that he can create a visual component with a palette of notes and sounds.

Since there are not a single cellphone portrayed in the whole video...I've estimated this was filmed during pre-internet era, the black digital bluetooth times, during the Reagan-Gorbachov administration period , pre dating the social media epoch in which we presently lived. So I reckon this was filmed in the year 1985 before the Millenials period. Interesting indeed.😏
