Great song! ELO had their biggest hits in the 70's-80's & mixed modern rock pop songs with classical overtones. Jeff Lynne wrote most of their songs. They had a lot of great hits such as "Roll Over Beethoven", "Showdown", "Can't Get It Out Of My Head", "Evil Woman", "Strange Magic", "Livin' Thing", "Do Ya", "Rockaria!", "Turn To Stone", "Sweet Talkin' Woman", "Mr. Blue Sky", "Wild West Hero", "Shine A Little Love", "Confusion", "Hold On Tight", "Twilight" etc.

Produced, sung and written by Jeff Lynne. He is the only member who is in every ELO album. He can write ✍ songs which sound like The Beatles then change to Billy Joel. Jeff Lynne also writes ✍ and performs with other musicians. Suggested videos 📹: 1 ELO performs Evil Woman. 2 Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne sing I Won't Back Down. 3 Traveling Wilburys perform Handle with Care.

Always enjoying your reactions, Shon!! JEFF LYNNE is the Lead Singer and Songwriter of ELO. They were indeed one of the GREATEST BANDS OF THE 70's. Hoping you'll react to ELO'S other top hits: 1) MR. BLUE SKY, 2) SWEET TALKIN' WOMAN, 3) ALL OVER THE WORLD, 4) EVIL WOMAN.

Credit where credit is due. Bass player Kelly Groucutt's vocals on this track, like on many other ELO tracks, is equally as good as Jeff Lynne's. Groucutt always sang beautiful harmonic backing vocals, but also co-lead vocals with Lynne on some tracks (check out Sweet Is The Night). Groucutt's voice was very similar to Lynne's, just a little thinner, but he hit high notes that were amazing.

This song was off the Disco/very album. At that time I wore a t-shirt that said "Death before Disco". I was a rocker back then but I still bought every album of ELO nonetheless. Jeff's voice could sing any style and make it amazing.

I remember in HS back when I still lived in New York City when I was clubbing with my fake ID so I could get in at 16/17🤣🤣 It was the Disco era and this song came out and they played it at the club I frequented almost every weekend. I said to some people this is ELO! Some people I hung out with didn’t listen to some of the music I listen to, so they were like who the hell is ELO? I was like don’t worry about it, just dance. It sounds funky because it’s got a little disco sound to it.

Here's another song by ELO, if interested. "Electric Light Orchestra - Turn To Stone" (by the channel: snetterton88). This song is the first track on ELO's landmark double album called "Out Of The Blue" Jeff Lynne, the frontman for the band wrote it during a marathon two-week song crafting retreat in Switzerland. The album had 4 million pre-ordered copies and quickly went multi-Platinum upon its release. This album produced 5 hit singles in different countries and was ELO's most commercially successful studio album...In otherwards this is a Banger🎊🎶 This was a fun reaction thanks so much for sharing, Shon. Peace Out~

If you want a head banger (that goes back to 1969) check out Grand Funk Railroad, "Inside Looking Out." You'll be surprised at what just 3 musicians can do ! Lead singer (and lead guitar) Mark Farmer, Don Brewer on drums, and Mel Schacher on bass ~ Amazing !!✌👍🎶🎸

@@hernanpatrik4908 OK that's fine. But, I was speaking on music in America, and this is one of ELO's least popular songs, so why not react to more popular songs like "Living Thing' "Strange Magic"? "Evil Woman" "Can't Get It Out Of My Head" "Telephone Line" or "Showdown" just to name a few. All these great songs and he's doing a disco song. That's all I was saying.

This is one of ELOs least interesting songs. Just a disco money grab. I dismissed it in 1980 and I ignore it to this day. Disco dreck.
