Man whenever i listen to Jeff Lynne's songwriting and arrangements. Makes me think he would've been a great "Beatle".

Yes you're right, and I believe once John Lennon said if the beatles kept on going in the 70's the would sound like ELO because he was a huge fan of them.

@@AbnerChamate I've heard Jeff Lynne say in a couple of interviews, that the original "groos" was something he just made up when he was recording in the studio, as a sort of place holder until he decided what to put there. The engineer, a German fellow, said that "groos" in German means "greetings." Liking that, Jeff left groos in the song. As millions of people who don't speak German listened to the song, many thought Jeff was saying, "Bruce," being unfamiliar with the German language (though perhaps folks in Germany and those who speak German recognized what he was really singing?). Jeff just sort of went along with the masses, and also sang, "Bruce" when performing live, or, as in this video, alternates between "groos" and "Bruce." I hope this is helpful. ☮ 🛸

E.L.O. are brilliant, no question. I've always considered them a sort of guilty pleasure - a band that the world doesn't think deserves that sort of respect. If that's true, then it's the world that are wrong. Looking forward to Jeff's new album! Cool news, that.

Later that year I saw them at Wembley stadium 'supporting' Rod stewart. The crowd were a bi6yt lukewarm at the start but by the end they were wild and stole the show from Rod. A bit like this one where they stole it fom The Moody Blues. Fab!
