Jeff Lynne's ELO - Down Came the Rain (Official Audio)

[@anthonyclarke5579]

Completely fed up of Jeff Lynne, all he does is turn out brilliant material non-stop. For cryin' out loud Jeff stop putting todays so called musicians and pop singers to shame, give em a bit of chance mate.😉🤗👍

[@neildodsworth1924]

Congratulations to Jeff lynnes ELO officially the number 1 album in the UK well done Jeff a very Brilliant album and well deserved

[@tomfink7505]

Simply beautiful. We're so lucky to be alive in the time of Jeff Lynne and ELO.

[@simonfootie6255]

Yes we are

[@kurtmorris454]

what a great new concept for ELO to do a song about rain. Great song.

[@JozeeWalz]

Its 2019 - who'd ever thot ELO a 70s rock icon would still be making great new music nearly 50 years later? It's like time travel! And his music today is still great!

[@usmc-veteran73-77]

I agree 100%. I was a 20 yr old United States Marine on Okinawa back in 1975, when I first heard ELO. Im now 64 yrs old and Jeff sounds like he's singing back in 1975.

Jeff: I'm so sad. I'm gonna write about standing in the rai..... oh nevermind. the sun is up (writes Mr Blue Sky)

[@rex-racer]

Or blue... or falling... or down the line... or waiting... or sometimes trains or phones. Or just being an awesome singer/songwriter/band.

[@mikepersia5362]

Lol, so true. ELO must have more "rain" songs than any other band.

[@markbecto651]

What a cool song. My favorite track on "From out of nowhere".This is real ELO. I am always fascinated, how he create so many songs with catchy melodies. He must be from outerspace. And he is 72!!! Still the pleasure for composing. He is immortal. Hope, he produce more. I enjoy the whole album.

[@andybrinson6796]

Going to see him again in Nashville this fall,,, He just gets better and better!! Been a fan since Evil Woman. He literally is better than ever?!

[@carloscastillo-xf3cp]

first time I heard this band it was the 70's and I still think I wouldn't choose any other band instead ELO the best for me

[@usmc-veteran73-77]

Is there nothing this man can not do? He is so amazing. Most of us fans are in our 60s and Jeff's in he's early 70. Great album✌🇺🇸

[@MichaelKingVids]

Great song, Jeff Lynne. Lyrically and melodically a fantastic heartbreak song that seems to stand up to the heartbreak instead of wallow in it.

[@roadshowcreative]

Yes ... and the rain is both the heartbreak and the cleansing.

[@Bahama3ay]

This song wouldn't be out of place on the album Time, it just has that classic ELO sound to it.

[@craigham6081]

what a great example Jeff Lynne's it doesn't matter if your listening to ELO from the 70s or now in 2019 this music is timeless

[@MajorWolfgangHochstetter]

couldn't wait any longer (my CD from Amazon is due any moment). What's truly remarkable is that Jeff is now in his 70's. I myself turn 70 in January. He still sounds fresh, unlike many of his contemporaries who sound 'worn and tired'! The best thing however is that he (the musical genius he has always been) is finally being appreciated by the media (and others) who really have been doing their best to ignore him all these years. The R&R HOF (sham that it is) finally inducted ELO a couple of years ago. When will they induct Jeff as a song writer, solo artist and producer?

Lyrics: [Verse 1] You let me go when I was down You let me fall when I could drown You knew how much you meant to me You took me down that slippery slope You left me there without a hope You saw just what you wanted to see [Chorus] Down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came the rain Falling down on me Whoa, whoa, whoa [Verse 2] And now the time has come at last Those days would slide into the past And never more will there be misery I'm moving on in my own time I'm getting further down the line I'm trying to see what's going on [Chorus] Down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came the rain Falling down on me Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah [Chorus] Down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came the rain Falling down on me [Chorus] Down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came the rain Falling down on me Whoa, whoa, whoa [Outro] Down came, down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came, down came the rain (oh yeah) Down came, down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came, down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came, down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came, down came the rain (oh yeah) Down came, down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came, down came the rain (down came the rain) Down came, down came the rain (down came the rain) Got it from genius

[@midnightacolight8526]

This song grabbed me right away. The verse is somewhat heavy. The lead guitar repeating the notes through the chord changes adds complexity and also binds it. It's as if you were holding it together, hanging on and not acknowledging loss. But not feeling good. Then the song drops down into the chorus, which is very clear. Down came the rain. It's clarifying and purifying. The loss in now undeniable, but maybe then there can be acceptance and that makes possible moving on. The guitar solo echoes this. It's simple but beautiful. The single string repeats two notes and then a second string is added in harmony and they both fall off. It's as if you're just hanging on. Then whatever it is you're hanging onto falls apart. And you follow it down into heartbreak. A perfect song.

It's interesting how he takes a lot of elements from his previous work and kinda mashes them together to create completely new songs. This one has a general "Balance Of Power" sound to it.

[@cxtrax6574]

I can happily say, as a fan of Jeff Lynne, that his two or three years of touring has done what it does to a lot of performers. Being out in the open and around other people has developed into a very well made album, much better than "Alone in the Universe" (only my opinion). While there were two or three songs that I personally felt were repeatable on the previous album, THIS album is made up of songs, all of which are very repeatable! Truly well done Jeff Lynne!!! If this was to be the last ELO album, you are truly going out on a winner, to be sure!

[@nicolastutor]

So grateful for this album. Right now, this is my fave. I love ELO because Jeff Lynne is a master at analyzing and synthesizing themes, riffs, moods... and it comes out sounding like ELO :-) It reminds me of some classic Phil Spector tracks because of the progression and turnaround (and the woahs), but it also has that sick repeating riff that brings to mind Dancing With Myself. But the overall feel is a slower and more driving vibe from Wendy Clear. I wonder what his actual influences are? Probably not Blink-182, but I'm sure if you go back far enough you can trace the DNA in both songs to a common rock and roll source.
