ELO - CONFUSION

[7zion4jess9]

simple y sencillamente... Lo mejor..

[001silky]

To appreciate quality music,is to recognise the beauty and genius on display when ELO produced a song.Jeff Lynn is a song writing genius whose talents put him up their with the Beegees,Beachboys and the Beatles.

[Moniarte9]

LLLOVE!!!



[Red57Devil]

Still sounds so good

[Blackflagbangkok]

Whenever i hear this song it reminds so much of my dear father who died exactly one month ago. He used to listen to this great tune in his car when i was kid. Thank you so much for everything Dad and for teaching me what good music sounds like. You will be dearly missed...

[denzfl1]

Mr. Orbison, meet Mr. Roboto. The two of you will be making syrup sprinkled with cheese, served cool.

[gil14bis]

tempo bommmmmmmmm............

[musicvend]

A wonderful song

[Gruberv]

0:10 sounds like Yoshi's Island music

[MultiTarek66]

esta musica me recuerda los dias q me entretinia en las maquinas de fliper q años no?

[mymala108]

This is just so juicy-goodness! Anybody knows which synth sound is used 1:07-1:14? 

[Potionette81]

What produces the vocal distortion at 0:38 for example (on the word 'confusion')? Is it an early form of autotune?

[gabrymr]

@Potionette81 Vocoder...

[SNOWYRABBIT1]

fantastic in and way you ant

[wieslawl59]

Somehow this song makes me confused.Don't know why.

[rayraysworld]

[16wani]

Happy birthday, Jeffrey Lynne :-) 

[Drewitox]

Nice special effects! lol xd

[javodefabrica25]

Me hace acordar a la historia sin fin jajajaja

[mrspivvy]

This just doesn't get old. they'll still be playing ELO in 50 years. and quite bloody rightly so.

[marcoslove1985]

[blady953]

beautiful music from 70 to 80

[zielonybaleron]

Koncert był niesamowity, kto nie był niech żałuje!

[ywalker1959]

[caparada45]

[Ulfnarr]

[adek608]

Szkoda że się rozpadli:(

[paracacho88]

amor confundido cuan difícil es llevar dos amores, cofusion

[angelbe88]

Amazing talent. So unique

[rejondo]

youve lost your loving you just cant carry on

[MrBuckwilliam]

D'OH... i'm so confused

vinny barbarino was so confused once O_O

[polyestersuits4ever]

[MISSROSASROSAS]

What a beautiful song !!!!! I get to the heart, such a tremendous performance, so excellent composition.

[zielonybaleron]

Today I'm going to the concert, wow. Jeff's autograph will be mine!

[berm29]

It's Harmony not only beat!

[krisa600]

uwielbiam te muzyke i jeffa

[sixgun75]

I'm quite young (13) but i was wondering how big these guys were in the day. I reckon the songs are very complex compared to the other stuff i listen too (Gaga/ Bieber) Were thay like as popular as U2? I love them and have only just found them in grampas record collection (which im not sposed to touch hehe)

[supobostarman]

@sixgun75 They were very big in the 70's. Their records sold very, very well and they had lots of airplay. Big arena attraction as well!

[stephnknee100]

Love Jeff Lynne :-) XXXXXXXXXXXX

[OkoPrawdy]

101 people feels confused :))

[ThePompey65]

Absolute classic...i could listen to this again and again and never tire of it..

[DaveWollenberg]

Did the shaded become a trademark for Jeff? He's been wearin' 'em for over 30 years, now.

[TheHernanPatricio]

ELO una de las mejores bandas de toda la Historia de la Música Rock

[TheHernanPatricio]

jeff Lynne ven a visitar Chile en Sudamerica!

[Mindux518]

1:16 EPICNESS!

[bechize]

thegreenbogeu I love your comments !!!! It is so correct - god can never be Jeff Lynne. Think about what theese groups have been giving us all. Life is nothing without this brilliant music. Thanks to all good groups

[TheManiek38]

Pamiętam imprezki domowe..dzieciakiem byłem...ponadczasowa muza.

[MsANETA09]

Niesamowity zespół z niesamowitą i ponad czasową muzyką. ELO! Dziękuję:-)

[zielonybaleron]

@MsANETA09 nie mogę się doczekać koncertu :-) 

[MsANETA09]

@zielonybaleron i ja też nie mogę się ICH doczekać. Mają byc w Łodzi i na pewno tam będę! Oni i ich muzyka są niesamowici;-))

[zielonybaleron]

@MsANETA09 a ja już mam bilety do Zabrza, więc tylko czekać aż wejdę pewnie grupą dużo starszych ludzi ode mnie do DMiT (tak, tak, jestem 1996 rocznik :)

[MsANETA09]

@zielonybaleron Muzyka nie zna słowa "rocznik". Nieważne ile mamy lat , ważne, że łączy nas milość do takiej muzyki i, że potrafimy świetnie się bawić na koncertach.

[mravozmar]

Disco? very!

my favourite joke about this great album :)

[ivan39209860]

la mejor banda de todos los tiempos!!!

[kingguitar1]

Another MAGICAL, MUSICAL, MELODIC,MEMORY from the quite brilliant E.L.O.

featuring the shy, enigmatic yet multi-talented musical GENIUS Jeff Lynne.

[lucolocoyou]

great song!!..

[mikmax66]

My friend George put me onto this album back in 1985 quite some time after it's release and I immediately loved it - not one bad track on it. Would be great for them to do a reunion tour. Great songs, great memories....

[LDEA1012]

101 personas están muy confundidas , yó por mi parte convencido de que la ELO es la música de mi vida.5 de Octubre de 2011 , teatro Cauplican,Santiago de CHILE.

[Jakob1951]

Electric Light PERFECTION!!!

[JJHidalgo1]

Jeff's the Best!!!

[artesana82]

esto si que es musica. no como la de ahora que deja mucho que desear...

[jactays]

if they ever made a comeback id be first there

[cushdaddy56]

I remember the very first ELO album I bought...it was on cassette. What an incredible band...nothing like them. I was fortunate that while stationed in England I got to see ELO II perform live at the Apollo Theatre in Oxford England. It was like having a private concert.

[001silky]

Jeff Lynn ranks alongside the beegees,brian wilson and the beatles for his song writing genius and masterful productions.

He should be honoured for his services and contribution to music.The music ELO produced is timeless and of the highest order.

[thegreenbogey]

I'm sick of people comparing Jeff Lynn to God, he may be the almighty but he'll never be Jeff Lynn.

[82ndmoosey]

@thegreenbogey

Now that made me laugh. Nice one.

[16wani]

@thegreenbogey

LOL :-D

[giglass]

This band's name is fuckin awesome

[58terryg]

ELOs' best...period!

[Gentilseulement]

Tandy is my favorite keyboard player!

[Vidinotes]

awe full

[sylobooking]

ELO was one of the greatest band of there time and still are in my books!!!

[shikadeshita]

ボコーダーとYAMAHA CS-80がいい味だしてます

[bardo0007]

How can you beat this?

Confusion was my favourite ELO song and it still is.

I was a confused teenager at that time so it was the right song for me.

[sharky0922]

100 people are in confusion

my only song that i can listen on and on

[Skellington383]

Everytime I hear this it brings tears to my eyes...great track:')

[polyestersuits4ever]

always liked this song from the disco-very album but sadly it seemed to mark the beginning of the end for the string section..the "orchestra" in electric light orchestra. time, secret messages, balance of power they slowly become less of a factor on those albums

[DistortedFaiths]

I'm not gay, but I find something adorable about Jeff Lynne.

[lorveal47]

buenisimo iiiiiiiii

[desolate1959]

timeless .pure quality.

[LivingTOOgood]

Timeless. Sexy. Amazing. Talented. Jeff Lynne remains a dreamy fantasy in the minds of many.

[Kostagh]

Maaan! This sure brings back memories... Used to listen to them on 45 rpm vinyls... Or 19cm/s high fidelity tape recorders... Casettes were still not comparable to those. Used quarter of an inch width 4 tracks magnetic tape reels. Great times!!!!

[moz6616]

big hair we all had big hair back then now we aint got much left

[Debbiec4vett]

My favorite song from Jeff, I listened to this song when I was a young girl and cried about Jeff every night

[Debbiec4vett]

Jeff is the ultimate....

[mariazerofolle1]

GRANDI...CHE RICORDI....

[orangeoranges11]

thank god my parents showed me this band

[DEADLYDAZ1967]

better than any shit today .

[SuperMrVb]

toppen af poppen

[Spqremp]

ELO was the first group to add orchestra instruments to their band which gave it the unique sound. The bubblegum music today will never compare to the sounds of the 80's.

[Teebirdster]

Fantastic band,fantastic song,end of story!

[jakie41]

confusion is a B side is it not?? But really greatXXXXXX

[jollyboatman]

Songs like this make me realise why I ticked the Bose option when I ordered my car!!!

[zut25]

DISCO STU!

[fabiansarber]

such a beatiful music will never be forgoten.

[MizziLea22]

I used to get lost in this song. If they ever formed again......OMG I would be first there to buy a ticket. The most magical band ever. Why can't we see musicians like this now. ELO you totally Rock!!!!!!!!

[matskiuk]

@MizziLea22 me to id defo go there, come on jeff do a concert for us all

[TheStones1964]

Yesterday night the played in austria, linz a real great gig. thank you for the music.

[codern]

awesome song, awesome band..just lots of awesomeness

[hoopydu]

This is unintentionally High-larious...

[pikkiecrous]

@hoopydu Bum, you obviously don't know music, especially when it's good.

[Yinhuwuduan]

Man , I was growing up on ELO ........



[operaofthe70s]

Long Time ago....makes me melancholically upset! Its unbelievable how time goes from a provincial Town in Germany to the Top Of the world ...Hollywood

Love top all

[geoffjohn1]

love this song. still have all there singles and albums on vinyl. also got cds. all my children brought up with elo. youngest son is 17 and loves the music. midnight blue is another awesome track.long live ELO.

[paulj0557]

My buddies and I in Hilliard Ohio's Colonial division in the 70's used to make fun of Yamaha keyboards,Ovation guitars, and blue violins. I swear the kids of today could make good music if they tried, but they have no taste. Come on, show some balls! I know what you're saying @winterstellar I kept my secret affection for ELO too. Whatever happened to everyone knowing what cool was even if we couldn't be it? Now they simply haven't a clue. Although some do, my 17 year old is cool just being him.

[winterstellar]

This was one of my favourite bands when I was a kid, but I never told my friends. I worried that they might think it was "cheesy" or something! I still think the music is great.: )

[frizzlefrap]

@winterstellar ..... lot's of great stuff from these guys .... no need to be ashamed ...... you like, what ya like!

[frizzlefrap]

@winterstellar ..... i know some "winterstellar's" ..... are you from northcentral ohio, by chance?

[winterstellar]

@frizzlefrap No, I just added a letter infront of interstellar. The avatar I wanted was taken. I could of just added a number, but I did it like this instead. I wasn't aware it was an actual name when I made it, but I too have noticed that some actually have that name. : )

[MARTINVAQUERO1]

great song makes me feel better

every time

[af021906]

You might be confused about your life,  but never on your TASTES, ELO es UNICA E IRREPETIBLE!

[1966eugen1966]

ЭТО СУПЕР !!!!!!!!!!ПЕСНЯ ПЕСЕН  ...ELO ELO!!!!!

[pugs1951]

Great.

[Teodyk]

Super concert - july 2011 in Poland !

[frommysoul69]

Gracias Hermanos por hacerme escuchar clásicos que vivirán...hoy y siempre.... gracias por poner oreja a los clásicos del rock.... gracias bros.. V

[pdanoe]

I was so preoccupied with chess back then, so when my classmates said "ELO" I thought they had suddenly heard about the elo-rating in chess.

[TheBalladOfSgtPepper]

Probably my favorite song from ELO, Incredible arrangement. The Electric Piano, Drums, Bass, Strings and of course Vocals make it like no other.

[crystal9ism]

Big hair was cool. As were and are ELO

[BirdsTheW0rd]

is superman fortress inspired in this video?

[zamaskowany12]

[sal1410100]

avevo 17 anni quando ascoltavo gli ELO. Musica di altri tempi, sempre bellissima.Ciao

[gmaccruyff55]

trashcanalive????.They had a number 1 in 1980 with Xanadu.Must have made a few bob.The rest of the singles from that album did very well also.

[gggordanus]

chills and tears...

[inverterville]

@gggordanus same here, i miss that time so much

[IIJu7II]

my favourite ELO Song since I was 4 years old, honestly^^

[bobcat521]

Even some kids today are appreciating the genius of ELO and Jeff Lynne.....usually through playing Grand Theft Auto and the ilk...They can never be copied!

[MegaKansi]

bulem w podstawowce gdy po raz pierwszy uslyszalem ta plyte...

[smidsyonfire]

Timeless classic IMHO !

[turnex1]

music at its best...period!!!

[TheMstlm]

They were just magical live.

[AwesomeBeatles]

ELO has stood the test of time. Might be the second or third best band. Beatles and Zep. I absolutely love this song.

[eden1963]

97 people are suffering from "confusion" LOL

[JettLaken]

I think the whole Discovery album is great, i think it their best album. A Piece Of Gold

[maxiv41]

ELO happy times ,,, THX ..max

[Memekdg]

ilona888@o2.pl

[mrmjb1960]

The inspiration for this Video was the painting which graces the "Discovery" Lp!

[murraybott]

A really great song from ELO

[paulbowden1]

it's taken me more than 30 years to realise how brilliant ELO are/were - saw 'Orchestra' at York in 2008 and now buy and play as much of their music as time allows.

I really wish I had appreciated them first time round as my old mate Graham Hogger recommended!! - all the best Graham you were so right about tham

Paul Bowden (Isle of Man)

[bbuteo]

I do love this band.

[JBofBrisbane]

Dig that groovy Yamaha CS-80 instrumental break, man.

[miredon]

Zajebiste E.L.O.rządzi !!!

[Coscia007]

96 people are confused

[viremva]

Love this music since is I was a younger boy. I'm 50 years old now and still love the music of ELO. The Orchestra of today is a far cry from what they made in the '70s. But that's the meaning of a simple Dutchman...

[Drunkarlos]

Me costó encontrarla...no entraré en detalles, QUE PIEZA!, 70's

Confusion, I don't know what I should do

Confusion, I leave it all up to you

You've lost your love and you just can't carry on

[jactays]

fantastic group that never got enough credit

[sunspark01]

@jactays THANK YOU!!!!!, so nice to know others feel the same as I do about ELO

[TimCasto]

When I was in Germany around 1979, on the juke box of a local pub, they had this song with a German language version on the flip-side. Anyone else hear that version?

[Bingur1]

Evergreen, YES.. :-)

[1404george]

One of the greatest songs in the seventies and eighties

[MrRichardSabsay]

If it's ELO i's great Jeff is a god!

[sunspark01]

beautiful song, and an amazing band. RIP Kelly, we will love you forever.

[13101988andoni]

@sunspark01 what when?!...god, give me a break...2011 it´s starting , all the late 70s and 80s artists are starting to go...oh gosh...so sad...

[sunspark01]

@13101988andoni ---yes I know, Kelly was so amazing and ELO was the top of the

line and will be forever. It is so sad to lose a great man like Kelly--he is so truly missed.......

[ThroughRock]

For some reason when the "To lead on" line came in, I flashed the peace sign at the computer...

[bed928]

96 people can pound rock salt

[JamesBondsBoss]

@bed928 Don't be so harsh, you have to feel sorry for these cretins who are outnumbered by about 40 to 1, they are probably x factor fans who wouldn't understand or appreciate proper music all the time their arse points downwards.

[rcarol]

Me regresa a mis dulces 16 años!!!!

[aixalennon]

una cancion hermosa

[trashcanalive]

The problem for ELO was that we were all listening to new wave in 1979 and this song, though very good, felt old fashioned at the time. Ditto ELO's image - big hair was very backward by then. They couldn't adapt their image to the times. This was pretty much their swansong.

[stinkypants10]

@trashcanalive Where did you get your info??!! Sorry, but I and all my friends listened to all new music back then and still never dismissed ELO as "old fashioned". They may have lost their fair-weather fans, but they don't count anyway! And big hair was not backward, it was just taking off! Also, Jeff and Kelly cut their hair for the next LP "Time", if that helps.

[Johnnywhamo]

@stinkypants10 He's not totally wrong, a lot of bands that were popular in the early to mid 70's did have a hard time from 78 - 85 when New Wave hit, there was a definite rejection of "old rockers". Whether you want to call ELO old rockers or not is subjective but it's true. A lot of these bands were brought back into the light recently from people like us that have a nostalgic sense to music from our youth.

Bands like Elvis Costello,Talking heads, Police etc took a lot of these guys out.

[stinkypants10]

@Johnnywhamo Like I said, only fair-weather fans "rejected" ELO. Good riddance to those wankers.

[Johnnywhamo]

@stinkypants10 I understand where you're coming from. You can't simply all of a sudden dislike something you liked. The point I was trying to make was there was a new type of music the "new ears" wanted to listen to and they didn't take time to listen stuff from the past. It's like kids now saying Zeppelin sucks because it's "old people's music" dismissing it outright without giving it a chance. Peace!

[Johnnywhamo]

@stinkypants10  He's not totally wrong, a lot of bands that were popular in the early to mid 70's did have a hard time from 78 - 85 when New Wave hit, there was a definite rejection of "old rockers".

[carlosaglez1]

@Johnnywhamo at the end, you can compare bands lake Elvis Costello,Talking heads, Police with Queen, Supertramp or ELO?, I dont know

[trashcanalive]

@stinkypants10 - I was a teenager at the time, a record buyer. We were all listening to Elvis Costello and Ian Jury at the time. Don't get me wrong, I love this song but there is no escaping the truth that this was terribly old-fashioned in 1979. How many records did ELO sell in 1980?

[stinkypants10]

@trashcanalive Stop repeating yourself. It's only your opinion. You don't even know the guy's name is Ian Dury...Jesus!

[tonymontana1974]

@who is ian jury ????

[trashcanalive]

@tonymontana1974 Forgive my developmental disorder, as previously stated. I meant Ian Dury who you've clearly never heard of but was one of the best UK new wave artists of the time, with one of the most talented backing groups in my recollection. Hope that helps.

[trashcanalive]

@stinkypants10 - I forgot to say that I have Aspergers Syndrome and this song is therefore a bit of an anthem for me :-)

[imakelovelycoffee]

@stinkypants10 E.L.O were well before their time, i'd lay odds their 70's stuff would have made big 80's hits. old fashioned not, i'm in agreement with stinkypants (love the name by the way). This one i remember played every hour when radio one was worth listening to!!!!!!!!

this is a great song from ELO,,in these days we do not have good music.
