Dont Bring Me Down - Electric Light Orchestra

[BELLASHELLA1]

no na na / thx any wayzzz/?!!!

[anluevanodm]

Super 8 bring me here :)

[Pafracci]

No♪ No♪ No ♪No ♪No ♪uUu ♪

[HedWrek]

This has probably been mentioned before--I'm too gay, er, lazy to read all the comments--but the lyric is 'groosh', not 'Bruce'--although Jeff thought 'Bruce' was funny and would sing that sometimes--although, would 'Bruce' be so bad? That woman standing next to him here doesn't look too much like a 'Bruce' to me. And, lastly, I'm not actually gay, but I am pretty lazy, but who really cares?

[TheRocket89]

NHL 12 .... Xbox360 add me BulletPr00f 360

[hooliiisdewayne]

Thissss roooocks.

[nanoindu08]

amazing band

[EvdogMusic]

@kristyloren Many of us young cool people know this and agree. Too bad none of the record companies and radio stations do though...

[IfYouThinkItsButter]

@Bag0fRats Is it true that Jeff Lynne wrote this song about his secret Gay love "Bruce" Springsteen?I really had no idea that Jeff Lynne was a Faggot but I did hear about the time that he and Fred Schneider were seen together frequenting Gay bath houses in Georgia.

[ReleaseTheMonster]

Great Video!!!

[johnwerneken]

i love it too

[MrGokujeff]

I love it

[softie461]

GREAT BAND - GREAT SONG !

[jyou8388]

Pipe down and turn it up...

[LOPEBEAT]

E.L.O. hicieron un gran trabajo como "herederos" de las grandes conquistas de THE BEATLES...Allí donde The Beatles pusieron punto y final a sus conquistas musicales, La Electric Light Orchestra [E.L.O.] se encargó de continuarlas.

[notsoninja92]

What music is:

Music is from the 1900's and doesn't sound like a transvestite (Fagot Beiber) singing the song

Great band and Jeff Lyle is such underrated singer/songwriter.Love ELO

[Tadeusz3kar]

Ok. super! 

[ELOSHAZZY]

New Jeff Lynne album sometime in 2012 <3 Yhaaa.........

[sianngall]

@ELOSHAZZY cant wait the guys a genius

[Beast21Man]

You go kristyloren

[kristyloren]

THIS is a REAL honest to GOD BAND, not like today's crap - learn from the pros you young cool people and always rock on, no matter your age, music is ageless, it's a time machine of the coolest type!!!!!

[KUeWSkateboarding]

@kristyloren Mainstream is what you are referring as crap, I completely agree.

[ande047]

@kristyloren There's good new bands around today, you just have to search for them because pop culture has us so caught up with rap/hip hop. I agree to disagree with your on this. Although I agree with you on the talent level of this band, there are some new bands that bypass this band in terms of talent. Just thought I'd let you know your opinion is very biased

[PlanTonto]

Don't bring me down, douche...

[superbford]

Just one of the greatest rock songs of all time.... so catchy and well written.... well done ELO!

[Lo6726]

yes, many memories!!

[Lo6726]

what a classic!

[jeremymtc]

Broooce!

[Bosekper]

oh yeahh!!!

[humbleradio]

Don't worry about the dislikes. I'd worry more if people with no taste actually liked it!

[axcatengo]

Bruce, don't bring them down!

[FanOfACMilan]

Fucking Lady GaGa mixes her song Bad Romance with this song.

[cantor33]

44 people are bringing me down

[bur3kInc]

44 people doesn't know what is good music :D

[staninwyoming2002]

Thanks Miss T,, this brings back some memories



[oldman68able]

you dont suppose the reference about getting up of the floor refers to bruce lee???

[chinenfapmil]

muy buena la musica!

[mindfulpeanut]

Ah, yes "ELO" with virtually none of its orginal members, just Jeff "It's All About Me" Lynne and his "Me, Too!" girlfriend. Pathetic.

[lepeoci11]

44 ppl don't know mr. Groos!!

[ryanw1pool]

thanks Groose

[trap0001]

Tepid rubbish. Sorry, Jeff.

[pplectro]

Glam rock??

[gav2stroke]

Super8 brought me here. 

[meezerlover1]

ROCK ON!!!!!!!! Best version I ever heard or seen. Wasn't close enough to see them last time.

[Dingus44]

it's Gruice(sp);a german greeting!!!

[photosexual]

@Dingus44 album liner lyrics spell it more like 'grooos' - still uncertain of meaning in that context.

[thunderthedog3]

Runn Them Down Focker!

[thunderthedog3]

Brother Jason Ashworth. Love!

[skateordie547]

dislike bar doesnt exist on this song

[mikescarsick]

This is the song that sent ElO down to the depths of Queen on the GAY scale. Lesson learned: don't use a rare German expression if it's going to make you sound Gay and alienate all of straight America, and Springsteen fans.

[buildsbest]

@mikescarsick Get A Grip..No-one is into fake macho stereotypes which put additional pressure on men....Real men have no insecurities about being human and having sensitivities in love.

[kumatif]

@buildsbest WTF

[kurley182]

i found it! :P i'd been looking for this song..

[CuffDeep]

Bruce brought MrHoudeka down.

[Lukesinew]

Bruce.........

[cmdennison]

whilt popular...this band was actually underrated by music affectionatos. .

[Tarzanguy247]

The best song!

[ThePhatShack]

I was never brought down.. Until I took an arrow in the knee.

[MrHoudeka]

@ThePhatShack I hate faggots like you. Have to use an already overused joke on videos not even related to Skyrim. Your lucky, the arrow probably didn't even penetrate your base layer of fat.

[699Johnjohn]

@MrHoudeka Hey eat a dick

[BasementBeginnings]

@MrHoudeka LMAO you fuckin' tell 'em, killer!

[PlanTonto]

@MrHoudeka You're insulting faggots by calling him faggot. He's your people.....

[kimmysmilesatyou]

Makes me wanna watch Super 8

[xZM40A3Zx]

i got this by a skate 2 montage

[kja427]

Shine a little love was better than this; Believeth Thou It! That tune was underrated; This tune was overrated. Of course, then again, that's a happy problem for a band to be in, right?

[zeekyblahIV]

BSing a three-page paper about how this song is actually about gravity.

[vsmurray64]

Brings back memories.

[SurlyBird02]

This is awesome!

[Medic83301]

A huge hit for them in 1979 .

[flamary429]

Don't you just love Jeff Lynne!!!

[MrChaney4]

@flamary429 Wait PhatShack. Loving somebody in a band don't mean they gay, it just means they like music. Lighten up you son of a bitch.

[byronsprophet]

much better and rockier live

[suze2012]

This is an amazing live version - flawless.

[WertyBertyful]

0:40 the studio version of this song plays before he sings, yes same singer, but it overruns his voice, the studio version is playing along with this video on a lower volume. Wish it wasn't, but it's a very good and well played song. Gj Jeff. :)

[sammycircle]

I WANT THAT BLOND!

[Medic83301]

@sammycircle The blond is former actress and model Rosie Vela , who was or is married to Jeff Lynne .

[francinethegreat1]

@sammycircle

Tell you what, you can have the blond...I'll take Jeff!!

[MrELOPNE]

Richard (Magic Fingers) Tandy is on keyboards on here, a founder member of ELO and Jeff's right hand man in the studio, a great guitar player in his own right aswell he played the lead guitar on the record Strange Magic.

[TheFancynight]

Good video,good stars!!

[ekuurhelper]

My god, this might be the best like/dislike ratio I've ever seen!

[skypysek]

where and when is this filmed ? my parents were at ELO concert in Prague this monday and said that they are still awesome

[pfauenhahn]

@skypysek

This from the Promo-Concert for the ZOOM Tour fron 2001- a tour that never happens. Maybe you can buy the DVD. It's the last stand with mastermind Jeff Lynne. At the concert of your parents the only Origin was the fidler Mik Kaminsky.

Hope this helps you.

[skypysek]

@pfauenhahn Dad told me about only one original singer, but said it was so great that he probably would not hear the difference if there were all original members. Thank you.

[Sp4wnY]

hi marco

[gordo0449]

does Rosie Vela not remind you of a young Stevie Nicks from Fleetwood Mac - both are truely gorgeous

[natban1]

Fab!

[jeffyjeff976]

[22oommgg]

[xISourAsianIx]

So 240p we meet again...........

[kezie666666]

great this

[ELOSHAZZY]

check out Joe Walsh's song one day at a time ............it sounds like a Jeff Lynne production to me!!

[reedrichards82]

why doesn't the reaction pane have "loud and awesome" in it? can't please everybody, I guess...

[wd1164]

wow ELO IS THE BEST rosie is hot back then but i woud love to suck on the the lil blond lips playing the violin the 1 with the short hair lol not her face lips

[danielm531]

THIS IS music. : )

[16wani]

Rosie Vela can't dance..

[MjsterTex]

meravigliosooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­o

[MGSmucker64]

EPIC

[KahaluuMartyMom]

NOW THAT IS A EXCELLENT VERSION OF ELO DONT BRING ME DOWN!!

[Simorris7723]

@KahaluuMartyMom

Probably because it is ELO Don't Bring Me Down

[TheRunningPuzzle]

good video = can't see dislike bar

[cedararch]

@TheRunningPuzzle What dislike bar??? :P

[101keroy]

Great, amazing, fantastic.......ELO music to treasure...........

[ELOSHAZZY]

Now Joe Walsh has been ELOed..........LOL.  I love ELO/Jeff Lynne but only they should sound like ELO.

[Valenciadelcid]

Quis superabit?

[SanConMJ]

See you on Friday in Poland!!

[youngian]

It's shame Jeff Lynne became a producer on an evil quest to make every major artist sound like ELO.

[ELOSHAZZY]

@youngian HAHAHA!!!!!!!!!

[youngian]

@ELOSHAZZY

Dylan was the only Wilbury to escape Jeff's diabolical plans for ELOisation. Even the Threatles succumbed!

[Satyric7]

Rosie Rocks

[music4ro]

bad ass!

[Demonickitten666]

LOL some people need to read about the band carefully and read up on this song. "Bruce" was used for FUN because the original word WAS "Grroosss" (similar to a german word for Greeting)... Since people (yes me included) misheard it, they used "Bruce" for fun..... then again, if you listen properly you can HEAR the "G" clearly. NOT a "B" ... since I didnt know what the hell "Groos" was meant to mean, I thought I was hearing things lol

[GilbertsV1]

JACK & JILL !!!

[MrSnowrocks]

GREATEST MUSIC IN THE UNIVERSE!!!

[graemehaf]

Hey, I love the comments but as a citizen of glesga i would agreee, dont bring me down!

[Johnnyboi456]

Misheard lyric A common mondegreen in the song is the perception that, following the title line, Jeff Lynne shouts "Bruce!" However, according to liner notes, he is actually saying a made-up word "Grroosss". This is similar to a German word for "greeting", Gruß, possibly referring to the Austrian and Bavarian greeting Grüß Gott that the group would have heard while recording the album in Munich. However, after the song's release, so many people had misinterpreted the word as the word s Bruce

[gameshowfreak2007]

@Johnnyboi456 some concert he'll say Bruce has a little inside joke

[djttavares]

I sang the ling "Don't bring me downnnnn, Bruce" to my 3rd year economics prof... who's name was Bruce... I made him "feel old" and it's been awkward ever since.

[2001perseus]

@djttavares I had a Sooty bear glove puppet on my hand and popped him out of the crash helmet on my lap to wave at an English Lit prof. That did'nt go down well either! Beware academics with a sense of humour bypass!

[youjay777]

Jeff made it up as a fill...he doesn't know why he came up with the name bruce, but it sounded good at the time...

[grahamm2709]

@youjay777 he's saying grooos

[VoidmasterNX]

@grahamm2709 no he isnt. its bruce.



[rfsent5]

@VoidmasterNX, it's not bruce. Look it up and read the history on it. Unless it's one of those rare live shows.. But in this one it's apparently the original, so it's not bruce.

[Zineter50]

who the heck is Bruce? i dont know him.

you talking about Bruce Lee?

[possumGFX]

Finally....music! 

[spydir92]

At what point in time was it decided he was saying Bruce? I've never heard that one before.

[beckhurt]

I LOVE This Band:)

[kovialyxx]

HELL GREAT !

[liverpoolsammy]

Jeff Lynne is awesome. A true musician.

[Forte9000]

YEAH BRUCE, C'MON DONT BRING THEM DOWN!!!!.....

[LIAMGUNNER89]

This song is in donnie brasco great tune!

[TheMsautobodyman]

ok nostradumass

[moonlightshawdow]

it amazing they sound exactly the same live huh just shows u how shit modern singers are

[spydir92]

@moonlightshawdow Haha, that's exactly what I was thinking. A lot of bands newer bands sound like shit live. ELO doesn't need any voice enhancers or bullshit these people have now.

[NewMan2k]

Attack of La Niña brought me here. This is hella good music!

[StudioMachen]

cette une rip off de Monsieur Robert Johnson et son Stop Breaking Down Blues.

[daluze2222]

[LongbowApache96]

This.... my friends.... is what you call a ONE HIT WONDER! Brruccee!

[rcarey19]

@LongbowApache96 What? a 1 hit wonder?? ELO had a long string of Hits. :)

[noel1asn]

@LongbowApache96 Check your musical history a little better. ELO had many hit songs, and composed and played most of the music for the movie Xanadu with Olivia Newton John

[escalatortoheaven33]

@LongbowApache96 dont bring em down bruce check your facts

[schwinglow]
