[Legushi]

....una de las mejores de todos los tiempos....¡Gracias!

[prefont08]

give me some time im living in twilight.....blue days blacks nights.... elo class

[yesiamanalien]

Never heard of this band till a few days ago.. but is it just me or does the main singer sound a bit like Freddie Mercury?

[boomsticksimo]

@yesiamanalien then you have never heard of Freddie mercury, Freddies vocie is 1000000 time more epic,

[Fredwoode]

Goosebumps after all these years.

[BARNABYJONES09]

de lo mejor de el meaestro lynne y la E.L.O. gracias por subir esta excente musica y ...MUERA LA S.O.P.A

[justpickn]

Always loved this song. Thanks for posting.

[carloshooter3]

30 personas son regaytoneros...

XD!!!

[ConservativeLogic]

Everyone has that one person from way back that makes you NOT want to listen to this song!

[OftenMisled]

@ConservativeLogic Bah, nonsense. Sign that person from way back up to approximately 485 telemarketer lists and you're going to feel a whole heap better. They'll still be taking "telephone line" action from Chennai when you and I are senile and dribbling.

(I know I did).

[ConservativeLogic]

@OftenMisled

LMAO I would but I blew that one 20 years ago. My fault. Song still gets to me though.

[unseenlock]

my telephone line # - 281 733 7829

[candace658]

Epic song! Can't help but sing along at the top of your lungs! Ah, back when times were simpler...

[Barnum5150]

:27-:38, I swear I almost start crying.

[DaveyHendersonAH]

If I listen to this kind of music does it mean I have class. This girl I like said she would go out with me but I'm not classy enough. I'm 22 years old

[pckid888]

@DaveyHendersonAH:

Let me put it this way, if she likes listening to Britney, Christina, Pink or Beyonce, then you are way too classy for her!

[medinamichael67]

i remember my high school days....luv this song...

[fronwelljc123]

I cry when I hear this

[crazychrisva]

Great smoke song. Feels like your brain is being massaged.

[shawndixon13]

This is what real music is! Music at it's best!

[bwatto09]

"man i'm glad i called that guy"...

[killer970116]

@bwatto09 Billy Madison, good movie XD

[dustbowl424]

there was great music..there still is...enjoy...when I hear Adele..i know it ain't over for music or for the kids of today

[vanbra111]

now this is music

[glashoferj]

BILLY MADISON!!!!! plus ELO is epic and modern music is a travesty... btw im born in 90s nd i say that for sure :p!



[brennanthebrown]

[2010Jakeypoo]

Dammit! Where the fuck is my red lipstick?

[rabblue]

arseholes



[rabblue]

i see 30 areholes dont like this ,there loss

[31makimba]

This is one of the greatest songs ever made by one of the greatest bands of all time!!!!!!!! This is a fucking fact!!

[Vote4RonPaulLiberty]

"...can't you just let it ring a little longer, longer, longer... I'll just sit tight..."

Oh how I do wish romance and admittance of the human need for partnership would come flooding back.

[ranman1213]

@Vote4RonPaulLiberty It never went away, it was just outlawed.

[NecroticFleshrot]

@Vote4RonPaulLiberty

I do too. It's all about mind games these days. Both guys and girls seem incapable of being honest with their feelings anymore. Things would be so much easier if people had the courage to say "I love you" more often.

[Vote4RonPaulLiberty]

@NecroticFleshrot It will come about only after we quit pitting the sexes against one another. Men and women were created equal in importance but not necessarily ability. It's really quite beautiful.

[coalb389]

@Vote4RonPaulLiberty If I actually get into this line of business, i will bring it back

[micodanny]

buenisima los 70 

[elchistosoII]

Im here only for VH1

[Maxwell86868686]

[normanusutuk]

i have a new phone number, and i don't even know the number. i'll post it when i get the number. so you can call me for fun.

[nenothenacurious]

My phone still rings lol

[utveg522]

Remember when phones used to "ring"

[sweetgypsy100]

@utveg522 -- Ya- I sure miss that!! The anticipation would build! :)

[utveg522]

@sweetgypsy100 yea I remember when it didn't pick up to an answering machine on the third "ring" showing my age lol

[sweetgypsy100]

@utveg522 -- Amen, brother! omg-I feel old today!! Peace.

[utveg522]

@sweetgypsy100 Yea but I’m sure you and I are both wiser, if only we knew back then what We know now…. It’s hindsight thing. Good 2012.

[sweetgypsy100]

@utveg522 -- A little worn but wiser, yes!! Blessings in the New Year for you as well!! :)

[Montubita]

amazing song, amazing sounds, amazing band ever! ;0)

[jeremycohen96]

oh greenday didnt steal this....

[marijaneggg]

Hermosa! definitivamente, la mejor música es la de los 70s

[2010Jakeypoo]

I'm applying my lipstick...

[SlippstersVideos]

Classic Favorite

[enorytl]

There is a new radio station in Miami, (Easy 93.1 )and the don't play this song at all.. I have not heard this song on the radio in about 25 years.

[glittervixen93]

I sincerely and deeply love this song. It makes me for forget for 5 minutes that there's bad things happening in the world.

[stuntmanstu100]

he called the shit poop!

[msstanberryii]

Steve Buscemi aka (Danny McGrath) has 29 people to kill!

[deanie54]

like if billy madison brought you here.

[dipsettt18]

man, am i glad i called that guy

[JoshMahoney51]

Billy Madison brought me here, Odoyle rules!

[r0y02]

Greenday turned into hacks :-(

[CSEugene4]

Like the song , hate the commercial

[Mompy0yeh]

So very 21 guns-ish.. I'm on to you green day.

[TheTangerineNinja]

@mtzonev1 congratulations

[HaloSpartanG13]

2:02 Pokemon Route 209 and 21 guns.

[TheTangerineNinja]

@HaloSpartanG13 lol it does!!!

[mikecantu52]

At the Time One of The BEST Groups!!!!! Thank you so much for the privledge!!!

[CtvtvC]

I don't know why, but my favorite part of the song is when the guy's like, "okay... so no one's answering"

But this whole song is timeless.......

[missrachelreads]

I LOVE this song! Thanks for the original version - with the sound effects, yet!

[e34krazy]

puts lipstick on

[NeckWeck]

fucking beautiful

[shands89]

29 people don't have a telephone line

[pacmanindy]

I love this song, except the sound of telephone can be very annoying. I like the live performance version of it better, without the telephone noise.

[elijahstormcrow]

2:08 reminds me of 21Guns by GreenDay....though nothing beats the original.....ELO

[shreda169]

@elijahstormcrow yeah same

[happychappy12]

Sorry, but who the fork is billy madison?. Great posting of a crackin record by a 'Bustin' group...xx

[GreenMan09x]

I've begun carrying a stick of lipstick in my pocket on the off chance this song might come on the radio or at a friends house

[sanjurodog]

@GreenMan09x S.B. would smile over this one. I'm sure. :)

[stevieb89]

I just crossed nothing off my list cause i don't care if this song was in billy madison

[zippybee700]

All hail ELO!

[Somme1916Somme]

THE MIGHTY ELO

[Wisconsin222]

Love how Billy Madison pawned this off as a 1950's song and the song itself was made in 1970's. Also this song reminds of Daft Punk inspired shit with the vocals.

[atogunn]

@Wisconsin222 um...what?

[Wisconsin222]

@atogunn Daron Mcgrath was a 50's guy with everything 50's EXCEPT THIS SONG PLAYING!!!!!! Also Daft Punk kind of sounds like these guys.

[smarkwill2112]

Hangin on coz it's so cool!

[montcrist2]

Came on as I pulled into the parking lot at work. Could not get out until it ended.

[wfwhmj]

I love this song!!

[MsJanezzz]

This is out for my daughters Rachel Danielle and Emily.....one day we'll be able to talk again...'til then God will keep you safe......I love you 3

[neweng12]

Sadest song I knoww

[Urankar3]

SUPER!!!

[shield71]

*marks Billy Madison off the "people to kill" list*



[MegaGupka]

@shield71 who is he??

[shield71]

@MegaGupka The smartest man alive my good sir. He graduated high school in only 24 weeks. They made a movie about him, watch it and thank me later.

[patofglory]

to OftenMisled..it's complicated..

[cloudparter]

Sounds like Van Morrison.

[ZombieDisposer]

Man I'm glad I called that guy.

[1mouse69]

I know who will be paddling whose ELO butt, and it wont be mine suffering

[billwright331]

Great song, great band, thanks for posting it. Brings back a flood of memories...some good, some bad, but in the end makes me feel somewhat sentimental. I miss that time of my life.

[throwback95]

who remembers this song in Billy Madison

[mitermaster]

ELO is timeless and badass! Classic rock with portions doo-wop in it! How can ya go wrong with that? Great post!

[ELPOLLOLOCO5472]

fuckin' billy madison xD

[ramonlgonzalez]

THIS IS A GOOD SONG AND VERY EMOTIVE----RAMON

[gozlant]

One of the all time best!

[TristanHaney1]

I'm really glad I called that guy.

[widowtwanky]

Brilliant band and fantastic songs. I loved them then and still do now.

[Bordy77]

adam sandler anyone?

[IAJSKATER]

@goldghast i know exactly what you mean...

[Go0dSir]

This song is an expression of one of the worst situations ever in a relationship

[goldghast]

This was the 4th song I heard from them. Still a cool band. It is sad the people in my school do not like this. They like the modern "music" if thats what you call it. I wish this would have a revival.

[Supercharge87]

This was the first ELO song I ever memorized. My dad had their Greatest Hits album at the time and he played it on a hunting trip about 11 years ago. ELO is one of his favorite bands...and naturally, that got passed down to me. This song is currently my ringtone. To me, this music isn't good because it's old. It's good because...it's good. I guess the whole point I'm trying to make is, I freakin' love ELO.

[Andrew52686]

i love the doo opps!

[AndaRogers]

best song ever

[PadfootAndMoony1]

This is a really nice song :)

[MrChazz965]

One of the best songs, ever. Listen to the words.

[MysticDMBherb]

Damn old people. Your music is good though

[retroguitarmaster]

I just crossed Billy Madison's name on my list.

[LoneWolfNaota]

@retroguitarmaster I put on lipstick (hahaha!)



[mikelz48]

It's been so darned long I forgot how good they were.

[MrClaesW]

You allways seem to get back to ELO after years and years of listening to other music...

[ThePSALMSTER790]

BILLY MADISON :)

[rodeoclown58]

i"m in high school again in the 70"s1

[PeaceLoveRockabilly]

Man, this was the first song I ever heard by them. This was what made me discover the rest of ELO. (:

[patofglory]

Enjoy your teen years and the great music out there...it really helps..

[Daldrez]

@patofglory

Dude no way I tottaly am 16 and feel like an old man with no love life

[ApolloCreed89]

How can a song be so beautiful it brings joy to the world, tears to your eyes and make you want to listen to it 30 years later? You become a musical genius. And make music that is greater than life.

Electric Light Orchestra Forever.

[patofglory]

Thank you for your comment ..you brought tears to my eyes ..tears of joy..

[caretakercy]

@RAY332CCB Billy Madison

[ncolleran]

Steve Buscemi

[efan2011]

I wish there was an extended version of this song, because I could listen to this all day and it would still be epic! I just love this song, it's one of my all time favorites

[gillsteve]

I HEAR YOU HERE IN MY PITT OF..........OH WHATS THE FUCKING POINT. CLICK CLICK BANG, had you going

[waal]

[1theoshow]

it's such an amezing song

[Sensory08]

What top ten songs being made today can beat this song?

[mitchsquires66]

@Sensory08 definitely gaga...FUCK NO!!! nothing can i may be in the generation that listens to that shit but it sucks i love ELO i wish this stuff could come back in style

[SteveShivik]

@Sensory08 None. Please go somewhere else if you only care about new music, the old stuff is where it's at.

[blazak]

Dig The Mission of the Sacred Heart, my novel based on this album. Available on Amazon. Lots of secret messages for ELO fans!

[Taffy11000]

Awesome song, Probs most soothing of ELO's songs.

[PeaceLoveRockabilly]

This is the very first song I ever heard by them. It's what started my ELO craze (: They're just amazing.

[stumpdonut23]

@patofglory good for you :)

[sns21274]

@patofglory For real?Haha you sound like my mom,she's 72,looks about 57 and thinks she's 25.Kudos to you for remaining forever young!

[lh457725]

@patofglory Trying not to sound patronizing (really I am), but that is just beautiful. Cheers and I'm glad that we can share in this music and hopefully remember that every single second of life is meaningful and blessed.

[OftenMisled]

@patofglory Not to knock you, but for a tune to make an impression on someone at the time in their mid-late 40's (how's my math?) seems a little odd..

Whomever you are: More power to you.

[registrarse63]

billi madison theme....

[rezathepersian]

im 13 and i love everything about these guys

[sfransted]

@rezathepersian it's cool you have a great open mind to music you must be a die hard lover of music if you are 13......future superstar?

[scousegod1]

@sfransted Pedo

[PoopStreetWarrior]

@sfransted Agreed. Rezathepersian is my hero.

[dec0y8]

Hello? Is this Danny? Danny McGrath?

The Danny McGrath who graduated from Knibb Highschool in 1984?

[poohintheshoe]

Brings me back to my early teens...

[steven436]

[StayingBack71]

Thumbs Up if you enjoyed this song way before Billy Madison

[TK42138]

Been a fan of ELO and particularly this album (A New World Record) since I first heard it in '76. I was only 7. Listening to it brings back great memories.

[pabisz23]

mmm



[JokeBet537]

this song is my most favorite out of all the songs from electric light orchestra

[Vader3123]

21 Guns chorus sounds like this chorus.

[skippyandyoung]

Not enough can be said about this wonderful song.. Thank you Electric light orchestra for bringing this song to my life..

[UltimateCatLover]

I like this song because of the beat, and sometimes we think about family members we miss when we hear the song until 0:53. This song is EPIC!!!

[wesiscool123]

justin beiber

[LaNina0007]

Great song! Great song to sing along to.. Great band !!! All hail to the greatness - yeah baby !!

[ZyxthePest]

*puts on lipstick and lays back*

[thecolin6]

@ZyxthePest thank god I called that guy

[micahryanking]

The Chorus= what falling in love sounds like!

[Barstok1]

If Billy madison is all you think about when you listen to this song well you have a great movie but a poor sense of this song

[Cheessa]

This song was popular in 1977 and still today I listen to it and am amazed by the sound. A great song.

[slipknotskate1]

Chorus slightly similar to 'All the young dudes'
