  • spectacular stuff - sounds great - i remember stealing the cassette from my dad - as a kid that was a big deal - never got caught - i think i got more out of it though - he ha memories - all grown up now - kind of - thought i'ld type any old thing while song played and this is what happened - signing out -

  • @gotothemoutain We actually went in and slightly tweaked the song to get better clarity :)

  • Absolutely brilliant.... I go ape when I listen to this. My feet go into tap like crazy mode !!!!. I feel like swinging from the trees.!!!!!! Makes me ecstatic.!!!!!! Merci Beaucoup E.L.O. ....you have made my night.!!!!! Cannot find my copy of " The Best Of E.L.O " at present.... looked all over for it. Hope and pray it turns up. If not will have to reorder it...when funds reallow. All my love Angie~K.xxXXxx .

  • Hello:

    I like it very much... and I linked it in my blog in an article about the scarce France 7" single pressing "Shinne a little love"

    Thank you

  • Awesome song!

    I remember when I was a kid this was on the B side of a 45 I purchased.

    Funny thing is, I can't remember the A side song, I wore it out playing it, my favorite ELO song!

  • @1towermonkey Just loved your comment................loads more cowbell!

  • Needs more cowbell!

  • not a popular to the masses but a huge hit for elo fans long live jeff lynne

  • I got this album with it first came out back in the late 70's and loved it but, this tune has always been my favorite from ELO, with Calling America a very close second. It amazes me that so many of the popular tunes from the 70's & 80's still carry over to this generation (or is it because nothing much as developed with HIP-HOP and RAP dominating the industry for so long?) Thank goodness for Lady Ga-ga, Adele, and Katie Perry and their new sound...so refreshing!

  • don't quit your day job, editor lancelot jean mallia

  • 3:15 check the seventh :D

    

  • When i first heard this, it sounded like something from "The Lion King".

  • Do you know how to spell orchestra?

  • reminds me of warm summers and no commitments!!!..life eh!!

  • I love the part at 3:07... Jeff and Kelly were great together !!

  • Anyone noticed that Lynne re-cycled this for the chorus of "You Got It" ??

  • @MrBobLucas Sorry, I don't hear it.

  • @MrBobLucas maybe he did

  • Recently discovered this one...how wondrous!

  • Thank you Pandora. One of my new favorites

  • i shouldn't nitpick. it is a nice video with cool graphics. one of my ex-husband's fave elo tunes.

  • @NBK1122 Thanks! it was my first video. Go try my other ELO video "Boba Fett and The Raiders" it's ElO's "So Serious"

  • Has anyone noticed "Orchestra" is spelled wrong.

  • @NBK1122 yup. lots :) it was my first video and was worrying about digital so much i forgot about the spelling. Go see another ELO song I did. look up "Boba Fett and the Raiders" doing the ELO song "So Serious"

  • as soon as the weather breaks and you have the first beautiful evening of the spring, call the oldies station and request this song. if the dj has a soul, he will oblige.

  • Ahhhh !! teenage summers spent in Northern Ontario, Canada. Simply beautiful and never forgetable. Our wondrous ship still sails in my mind,heart and soul. Thank you,ELO !!!!!!

  • Memories of this being played live in Berlin, non better, thank you so much

    for playing this, respect!

  • Omg I loved this song as a kid. lol thank you!!!

  • don't remember this ELO song, but after listening to it,it's gone to my "favorites"

  • Not sure why I love this song.....but, I know it's ELO from the late 70's...thats all I need to know!

  • @folz208 It just has the upbeat tune that makes you feel good. My 2 cents

  • Luv this song. Thanks for posting it! ELO rocks.

  • She would have liked it too if she were there

  • sooooo goooooood :)

  • But of course the alarm clock at the very end wakes up from our wild and blissful dream, dangit!

  • The only thing wrong with this is that it ends too soon

  • @N4TH4NJ4Y I agree. This song could go on and on and on, and I'd never get tired of it!

  • What a clever song.ELO does not get the respect they deserve.The crappy bands today should take note.This is pure bliss...See ya in the jungle!

  • Electric Light Orghestra? 1:32

  • @xtrastage good point I believe he spelled it wrong

  • GREAT VIDEO-----GREATEST ELO SONG EVER!!!

  • and they danced !!!!!!!!!!!

  • i punched a guy for saying elo sucks

  • Just wanted to join the club of people who love this song and appreciate the video

    ELO is so suited to fractals, space age, high def video that they just did not have back then to complement the music. anyone tried synching out of the blue with close encounters of the third kind? No? Not that stoned , yet? stay tuned.

  • My favorite ELO song.

  • Imagine walking through the jungle and actually seeing this

  • look up the song "C moon" by paul mccartney and wings... same tune

  • that dog looks exactly like my dog!

  • A masterpiece !!!

  • This is trippy and I'm not even done watching it

  • In the 70's, Jeff Lynne used the alias "Spratley Bagweed" when checking into hotels.

  • Interesting fact about this song: Where it sounds like they're dancing, they're actually dancing. Jeff Lynne, Bev Bevan and Richard Tandy (AKA "Spratley's Dance Academy" in the album sleeve notes) recorded themselves tap-dancing in the studio.

  • Thanks, I worked on getting the song a bit clearer. Try my other ELO Video under

    "Boba Fett and The Raiders" it's ELO's "So Serious" -Star Wars Style

  • @dragon82a

    It is amazing to hear this song from my teenage yrs on a sand bar blaring it out on my pick-ups sound system where you put the 6x9 speakers up on top of the truck powered by jensen with 150 per speaker liner power in 1978. We thought we were the jam in those days.

  • very nice I love this song sounds better here then on 8 track

  • Music great but soz, video rubbish. Who's Electric Light OrGestra any how?

  • (love it 8D If only there was an ELO nowadays (i'm 15) My roomate showed me this song, and I had it stuck in my head for god know HOW long ^^)

  • @Renakerensy Great stuff eh? Saw then live in Berlin in the

    mid seventies doing the spaceship tour, words fail me!

  • I did this since I was practicing After Effects. Currently I am working on my 2nd feature length film, horror. Thanks for all the kind words. Also no I didnt spel orchestra right :)

  • err spell :P

  • You know, when you say something as crude and unhelpful as this you not only hurt the person who's tried to do something, but you embarass everyone else who reads it. You can be critical without being negative you know.

  • Thank you, I have improved Look up my other ELO video

    "Boba Fett and The Raiders" doing "ELO's "So Serious"

  • this song is really coooollllll beach house is awesomes to

  • I think of Gwenyth Paltrow when I hear that first string part - lord knows why.

  • First time I heard this was when I worked in a wholesale store and it was playing on a midi-system 12yrs ago. Good then, still good now!

  • It seems that Jeff Lynne was very popular outside British. I love ELO and I'm outside England also :)

  • ELO przez ostatnie 20 lat naj częsciej słuchana muzyka ulubiona ELO.

  • tak tak tak

  • The tale of Viracocha, by John Lynnard. Believe every word.  It's all true. Wish everyone knew what I do. But better than all the knowledge in the world is the fact that God knows me for who I really am, and loves me anyway.

  • spell check much?

  • Chooka chooka hoo la ley.

  • ORGHESTRA?!?

    Was I meant to notice this?

  • what a cool song. HAVE A WEISSEN BIER iwomar66! i was stationed in erlangen in the late seventies. i jammed on this with my headphones many a trime while i was well, lets just say 'in a different frame of mind'.LOL

  • Das ist toll , kocham ELO i jangle byl pierwszym utworem tej grupy, w moim" mlodziutkim "Swiecie Muzyki .Pozdrawiam fanow .piszcie do mnie :)

  • O yeah.

  • PURE CLASS PURE ELO!

  • Love this - chooka, chooka, hoo la ley :)

  • you spelled orchestra wrong

  • ummm yep, did better with my other videos "Boba Fett and the Raiders"

  • RIP Kelly...

  • Kelly G died? When. How. Sad Ed

  • February 19th 2009, I think. :(

  • this song is being used in a play im doing and im so happy because im a huge elo fan, all their music is amazing and so happy and upbeat

  • I did another Elo song "Boba Fett and the Raiders" used "So serious"

  • AWSOME

  • A funny thing about this double LP. Jeff had a huge case of writer's block and could come up with nothing. Then suddenly 2 weeks before the album dead line he called Bev and said I can't stop writing. The end result of course; Out Of The Blue. Ed

  • Do any of the chants in the song mean anything? I mean besides what the band say they mean? I love this song! It's in my top favorites!!!

    Ray

  • I want this song played at my funeral. Who could not laugh? Ed

  • so weird that you said that! just happen to have something for you...

    Alpha and Omega

    In the vision/revelation of Jesus Christ to John, Jesus said: "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End."'--Revelation 22:13 (NIV), and "...I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life."--Revelation 21:6 (NIV)

  • Your statement helped higher my vibrations and connect two sides of me by doing it. The center connection was the Holy Spirit, The first cerebral and it calmed the animal. Ed

  • Or you could go more sentimental or serious, and have them play "Take Me On" or "I'm Steppin Out"........

  • So true. Have a good one. Ed :)

  • Or be completely blunt and take it one step further. "It's Over" and what can I do? Ed

  • What a great song - so catchy!

    And a great video to go with it, too.

  • I guess the album version is longer than the single version?

    Love this song, they always leave it off of their Best Of cds.

  • This was never a single, it was a b-side though, and yes they never put it on any compilation they tend to stick to hit singles but as any dedicated ELO fan will tell you so many more album tracks by this band are just as good if not better than their singles

  • Classic track, always my fave from that album.

  • Its good, but you've spelt orchestra wrong.....love the song though...

  • one of favorite ELO's song,thx for posting!

  • I love this song, it's hard not to smile and tap your feet while listening to it, I wore out my 8 track playing it over and over.

  • This is the creator of this Video: I just finished another ELO video:

    Boba Fett and the Raiders "So Serious"

    Enjoy!

  • A song most excellent.

  • I sued to crank this one up on 8-track on my Craig Custom Powerplay!

  • mi ricorda tanto la mia adolescenza. e comunque rimane un pezzo bellissimo, ascoltarlo mi rende felice . luciano

  • mi ricorda tanto quando ero adolescente . rimane comunque un pezzo bellissimo

  • I LOVE this song!!  Thanks for posting it! Rock on ELO!!

  • I am just curious which movie editing / effects package was used for this.

  • Love the song.  Hate the spelling! Electric Light OrGhestra? It you're going to use something in nearly every scene, it might be good to spell check!

  • Hi, Lancelot here I have another video out .... "Bad Boba" here on you tube. Also I am currently working on another ELO video!

  • Hey man,I have another ELO song for you to find.I will be most grateful,if you can find the video for "kuiama". I seriously doubt if you can find it.What a challenge!!!
