1975 the year I graduated from high school...I thought this album was their best. Practially wore it out! This song brings back so many great memories. The whole album does...ELO brought rock and classical to a new level. Rock On!

[Silthrith]

all i can say is...WHOA

[chrismancandy]

I remember waiting for a very kickass party and concert

that I was going to and this song was stuck in my head

while I was waiting.I was in high school and the day could'nt

go by fast enough.It was a night I will always remember.

[luciernagaval]

Listening to this song I understand why I thought wheen I was a teenager it is one of the best ELO albums. How they contrast classic and rock voices, fusioning them; how they pronounce the instrumental transitions, making two of them in a second like at 0:54. What a beauty.

[daveandodrummer]

ELO Forever and ever and ever...Amen!!

[i842much]

I severly injured my leg many years ago, sold my car bought a bike to make it recover, many nights riding my bike home , it was this song in my head the pushed the pedals. Awesome....and my leg is fine thirty years later.

[Talalay99]

I just love it when Jeff hits that high note! What a spine-tingling track

[KieranDelanoSaven]

ELO, FTW!

[musicboynyc]

All I can think of is High School..it brings it all back

[kiaoraguy]

Every cut on this album is groovy

[GeorgeBolterJr]

I have been looking for this song for years. I could never remember the title. It meant a lot to me at a time, 1987.

[kurtisdholmes]

@GeorgeBolterJr i had this song stuck in my head for a good three weeks and couldnt remember the name of it for the life of me, drove me nuts!

[Coupon221]

Great Song.

[LindseyKilgore]

I Love them :)

[chrismancandy]

It has a mystery to it I have always liked.I remember when it first came out

on K-SHE here in St.Louis MO.

[siberianseductress]

I saw ELO live back in the 70s they've always been one of my favorite all time bands. What great production and concept. All I can say is WOW!!!!!

[tousnelda]

i'm listening at this song since 1975.....

always the same pleasure!

[jokerjunior2]

@tousnelda thats the same year i started listing to this song.its great.

[VIIGerman]

i listened this song like 3 years ago and i love it, now i found it finally its so good!

[Dannydudelido]

Me Too.

I LOVE ELO!...:-)

(Sorry for posting a comment on almost every song..:-)

But I really dig them.

Jeff Lynne is our time's Mozart!

[MrAgentx240]

i remeber when i first heard this song. it was the greatest elo song ever! now i became used to it.

[attilako]

That was the time when songs contained great exciting arrangement, riffs harmonies end melodies.... Love the band ,,,,,,would appreciate your comment

on my new musicvideo: We Can Be Forever Young

Attila

[sonicfan1821]

Is that backround all you use

[Perktube1]

I heard it at 3:18.

[richard0705]

never seen them live but seen some concerts and got almost all of there albums on vinyl been a fan since about age 15 and still are Jeff lynn is simply one of the best composers and produsers

[tropicalpimp]

this is very new to me. i was in the subway one day and heard these guys playin music...they sounded so much like the Beatles(I mean,really) and the lead vocals were great.Then they started playing THIS song which at the time I've never heard before.I fell in love with it right away.I approached them when they were done and asked who wrote the song and now I'm here. awesome song by an awesome band.

[Stevetheperformer]

@tropicalpimp I feel sorry for you guys who didn't live through all the great music like ELO

[jokerjunior2]

@Stevetheperformer i agree with that. saw them many times in the 70s and the 80s.

[Stevetheperformer]

@jokerjunior2 I saw them right after the "Time" album was released. By that time they were kinda going with a catchy top 40 style. They were still awesome but I liked their "New World Record" and "Face the Music" stuff better.

[jokerjunior2]

@Stevetheperformer i saw them do the time album to in philly at the spectrum. i agree by then they were changing alot. the new world record album was great. and so was out of the blue. i saw them do that tour to in philly. 1978 or 79 i think.

[EnglishAussie92]

Citysk811 is right :')

[citysk811]

kevooom is right

[kevooom]

this is hands down the greatest song ever !

[tweezey]

word

[haft2beu]

I think that about most ELO songs. :)

[tropicalpimp]

next to stairway to heaven...lol its really is great tho,isnt it?

[CDEFoxtrot]

at 3:14, the string part in Evil Woman can be heard backwards

[AlexRGravlin]

3:16, but yeah - definitely noticeable.

[ChrisK42]

Actually, the string part in Evil Woman is what's backwards. This is going in the normal direction.

[CDEFoxtrot]

That is what I was trying to say :)

[ChrisK42]

Well, sort of, but it was the other way around. Nightrider had the string part going the right way. Evil Woman had it recorded backwards.

[Lottie1223]

[AlexRGravlin]

[tropicalpimp]

i was on the subway the other day and some hipster kids where performing this song. It was my first time hearing it so I asked who was it by and now I'm here...great tune.

[OhyeahSTL]

LOVE ELO

[tropicalpimp]

what year did this come out??

[grahamcracker1966]

1975

[seborrg]

The singer and bass player of this song, Kelly Groucutt, just died on Feb. 19, one day after Edhi Handoko, an indonesian chess grandmaster whose Elo rating was 2,520. If there is a god IT must have some sense of humor.

[Nabukuduriuzhur]

Indeed He has.

[HWD1958]

Sad to hear Kelly had died.

[darkskidz]

At 54sec this song really takes off. ELO really are an impressive band.

[conanpower]

[ImperivmRomano]

[eightiesguy62]

@You got that right....well behaind the Beatles.....but then the Beatles were a huge influence on Jeff Lynne...and can you believe ELO is not in the rocka and roll hall of fame!! Talk about a disgrace!! They should definitely be in!!
