ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) - Telephone Line

[polydactylkitty]

This is so ridiculous I actually like it, LOL

[Psynath]

I'd tell you anything, if you'd pick up that telephone..

[HANNAHMOFOCLARK]

ok so jason sudekis could totally rock this

[XxBioshockxXgod13]

This song is in Billy Madison, the sound is a little off though....

[Neverabunnyh8r]

Amazing Sync Bro.

[primeVibe]

ELO...one of the nice things about being born in the 60s and being able to listen to some nice music in the 70's growing up

[ehirogen]

Awesome, such great music ....

"Okay, so no one is answering, but can't you just let it ring a little bit longer, longer, longer ....."

[luis48420]

Que cancion mas linda para recordar esos años,tremenda orquesta ma recuerda mi adolecencia .mas fino

[vhgjk123]

I think I found my halloween costume for this year!

[JapaneseHands]

I do believe after watching this video, I'm going to have to get both my eyes and ears checked.

[JapaneseHands]

The perfect cut of this same video can be found off the "cbeltran" channel.

This song has always been considered as "ear candy" to me until now.

[JapaneseHands]

When I first heard this jewel as a young child, the goose bumps became profound. The radio was at max volume inside my head. It was one of the greatest highs I've ever experienced. But then again, there was always another one ready within a few more minutes once I cut through the chaff of the day. I really made good use of all of AM and FM. My 9 volts never lasted long. The school nights were such a drag because we could not have our radios until Friday night. It was all I ever wanted to do.

[musique897]

telegram, teletype,telephone,smartphones I,m living in twilight. It was just a bump into my morning

[namreywal]

charles deschamps FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DEENVEE1420]

I did'nt know wether to tap along to the song with my right foot tapping with my left or my right foot with my hand? If you dont get what im talking about nor do i 'cos the timing here was simply SUPERB! "NOT!!!" Great song though!

[FaSeR2304]

la cancion es muy buenaa .....

pero el video sin sincronia!!

[mindfulpeanut]

Haha someone put their finger on the record at 1:06... ;-)

[LucaDatt]

@mindfulpeanut Lol! They tried to put themselves back in sync!

[butheadbros]

[GwenGalpin]

Are they actually singing "Telephone Line"? It's totally out of synch

[GwenGalpin]

Takes me back to my young adulthood - fabulous

[the1musicmike]

Aha...they are lip-synching. BUSTED!

[tacws]

[Conqueror441]

TELEPHONE LINE!!!! AWESOME!!! WHOOOOOOOOO I LOVE ELO!!

[naoaceitanenhumnome]

[Pivosquash]

Playback..xD

[snickersnafu]

luvit, 70s, 80s best ever lyrics, musicians, songwriters--timeless, mass appeal

[TayInTheWay]

Current song of choice.

[loveumomma72]

different. i like it

[shotgunn7]

Is it just me or are they trying a lot to sound like the Beatles ... can not blame them i guess.

[Meiacoffeestain]

@shotgunn7 yeah, they are known a little as Beatles impersonators...but that's ok, because they're still awesome.

[nancyneptune]

lol, crack up.

[watchdog1964]

simply magic :)

[kenneytinaful]

I was a teenager when this song came out. Brings pleasant memories.

[gkopacz]

This is Billy Madison. You might not remember me but I said some things to you back then that I thought were funny at the time but now I realize they were just hurtfull and mean and I hope you can forgive me.

[MrJakeAppleby]

@gkopacz man am i glad i called that guy!

[bobafettfan32]

@gkopacz lets have some coffee sometime.

[GranTruismo4head]

@gkopacz Yeah dont worry about it, Yeah sure, Id like that. Okay, bye *camera pans to "ppl to kill list and Buscemi Marks out Billy Madison and Puts on Red Lipstick.*

[SteadyRedHead]

[koffinkat666]

@BallsDeep8029 Thimbel deep, more like it cunt face,

[kja427]

I like hoow they did the first verse; Like what you'd hear in an actual telephone call. How'd they do that?

[ktj01]

@kja427 they got some phone call extracts from News of the World

[bbhrupp]

@timato98 of course it is ;)

[timato98]

Well this is obviously in perfect sync

[carpenterjai]

@timato98 yep, synched right up to the end.. oh wait, they cut it off before getting that far!



[webhito]

@timato98 Obviously its synced by the same actors from Brazil soap operas lol

[Whiter00m]

@timato98 No its not!

[tiefighter94]

The chorus of 21 Guns by Green Day sounds eerily similar to the chorus of this song..

[D1LatedPupils]

I can never hear this song without thinking about steve buscemi

[mezzala00]

Errrrr, what's a telephone line?

[MrGoodrape]

didn't recognize it from billy madison until the chorus, then i sang every word hahahaha.

[conniendave54]

reminds me of simple times back when i was young

[conniendave54]

reminds me of simple times

[slipofsilver]

sp unbelievably out of sync its not even worth watching

[jolpenrose]

Reminds me of the man I will never get over. Telephone Line still brings tears to my eyes.

[7293adam]

31 lat temu przy tej muzyce tak wspaniale sie bawiliśmy i ...,kochaliśmy ....

[EIO01]

" Crosses Billy Madison off to kill list."

[07jbaker]

[VitalSigns1]

[jmm1714]

[Butteroux]

[Sanedmex1]

[gallinitaciegav]

Vídeo recomendado: REVELACION NO EXISTE LA MUERTE

[MattMonk]

Steve Buscemi.

[nikiweb78]

Ten utwór nie jest do tego wideo.

[goombabear]

Why is he always wearing sunglasses? Is it an image thing or is he insecure?

[ColeGartner]

@goombabear Well i think its safe to say ur not really to smart

[goombabear]

@ColeGartner It is safe to say that you are not really smart, you cannot communicate without it sounding like gibberish. Get a life troll.

[thekeithchannel]

@goombabear Probably because tripping off his ass

[goombabear]

Loved the red lipstick.

[TheSweetenlow]

Is this danny macgrath?... The danny macgrath that graduated from knib high school in 1984?

[gmjuve]

@TheSweetenlow LOL!!!!!!! Brilliant.

[estufasV]

@TheSweetenlow That's him bro

[danielnordeen]

I Love ELO I played them so much in the 70's. I can relate to their meloncoly lyrics. If you'd pick up the telephone.

[garoos74]

ayyyy dios mio que cancion me hace llorar!!!!!!!

[centralparocker]

Almost----almost----makes my eyes well up.....

[richyblazedat]

what a jam

[wcleighty]

One of the top 1,000,000 songs EVER!!!!!

[hubris0]

Sync!



[CosmopolitanFools]

The voice/lip synchronization is OFF kilter - with the music. Whomever sent this ... PLEASE re-submit after the 2 match. It is too great a song, too inspirational a group to just have other people make due with faulty material. Thanx (x2)

[BennOliverr]

I like to stroke my pene to this song.

[hopy921]

boobs lol

[ljmarAtHome]

@organismdeveloper I see how that must have sounded then. It's just about my youth that is all. I guess I said that because of the times. Oraganismdeveloper....does that help? lol  Is that all you got out of my comment....hmmm?

[AlgisKemezys]

Imagine I come back to this song to get grounded.

[sjbiga]

the sole purpose for me watching that dumbass movie was to lead me to this song. thank you adam sandler and your repulsive acting...

[ljmarAtHome]

so many comments, I love them all, this song reminds me of my youth. A lost youth that can never be virgin again. Thanks for the upload. I feel 13 years old again...

[jeanie43ify]

this song reminds me!! of my dad in some ways! he died May 10th 2009...Blue days,black nights..ohhhh! telephone liiiiine! give me some time...Ok so no! one's answering..But can u let it ring,just a little longer longer?? i'll just sit tight! and let it ring forever! more!!

[xXGhilliedxSamuraiXx]

People to kill:

BIlly Madison

[tonecot89]

"I'm sure glad I called that guy."

[muzykalne]

SUPER !

[Laynefreeborn]

Fuck Billy Madison...I remember this when i was a kid. So much better when you were there. The best music ever.

[mowgli2071]

What??? Hey!!!! It ended too early!!!!!!!!!

Also, thumbs up, if like me, you remember this song coming out, and you sang along to it with the radio, all through your childhood!

[16wani]

Jeff Lynne is out of sync

[takarashin]

i love elo very much

[ssxrickybobby]

One of my favorite songs!

[ThaR00ster]

Thumbs up if you watched Billy Madison and used Google to find out what this song was called....

[ihatecolereynolds]

@ThaR00ster Or you could actually know the song.

[Hogey0]

@ThaR00ster

I enjoy good music. I don't need a shitty movie to direct me.

You are obviously a simpleton piece of shit, maybe I will go to my local Tavern and see you as the towns drunk. Someone to pity and laugh at.

[azuredreams717]

@Hogey0 Are you stupid? What does it matter how you find music you enjoy?

[holyshitrock456]

@Hogey0 just because someone discovered a good song through a funny movie doesn't mean they are a "simpleton". I've been listening to this for years, but i did watch billy madison a few months ago, and i don't judge people for searching up an amazing song. you are so cool for not finding this song through a movie... fuck every classic song i listen too there is people like you who think they are better because they already know and love the song..... BTW you could have included the whole track

[GeorgeMichaelLover1]

@ThaR00ster haha thats exactly what i did!!(:

[bentay293]

@ThaR00ster

HAHAHAHAHA, amazing! that was the first thing i thought!

[masterpolilla]

@ThaR00ster BILLY MADISON YA SE ME HABIA OLVIDADO ESA PELICULA HJAJHAJHA EL TIPO DEL LIPSTICK... THANKS FOR REMEMBER ME :D

[MoBea]

Let it Ring for ever more...

[hiroller269]

The audio is NOT in sync with the video AND it's cut short!

[pinkandjefflynne]

God at his best

[nekuphones333]

when a video is great, the like bar looks like yoda lightsaber, but if the video es a f*cking piece of sh*t, it looks like vader's one xD

[ShellTrek]

I thought my Video was acting-up... Thk's for the heads-up guys!

[LucindaLC]

the audio isn't in sync damn

[MrDrProfessor814]

He's speaking japanese

[muis63]

wonderful music....

[blazak]

If you want to find out about a great book based on this song, check out The Mission of the Sacred Heart Facebook page. Secret messages for ELO fans!

[GlennMilllerThe3rd]

Just heard a cover of this song ON THE RADIO!!!!!!!! IN SPANISH!!!!! Almost killed myself!!!!!!

[C7H042]

@GlennMilllerThe3rd I agree, Yndio smashed up all covers they did. But as I said, those songs would never have been known outside US without them.

[turonlupita1]

This song brings back so many memories, good and bad, but mostly good...OMG I can't believe this song can still make me cry...tears both of joy and pain..I wish i could meet Hugh McDowell..I would die happy knowing I was able to talk to him and maybe even get to give him a big kiss...I'm, I'm unable to get him out of my mind....

[mario1261]

ESTA SI ES MUSICA. Y NO MAMADAS.

[MysticDMBherb]

I fucking love this song

[thiessen35]

Bob Ross? 

[Revolver271]

Is it just me or has Jeff Lynne virtually looked the same since the 70's? haha. Electric Light Orchestra are unsung legends. Excellent songwriting.

[CerberusMoD1990s]

the amount of music in the world today, its hard to find two songs that don't sound similar, so everyone just calm down and enjoy the music

[Gavin518]

OH GOOOOOOOOOOOD CUTOFF

[whitchie]

Does it matter if the music corisponds,who gives a shit!!

[Arthurianwarp]

Has anyone realized that the vid does not match the music AT ALL???!!!

[raescobedo63]

bad copy, the words don't match the lips.

[paullydeepfry]

Was this dubbed in Japan?

[ja5peruk]

long live the memories of the 70's n 80's!!



[AlgisKemezys]

Oh the memories behind this song.

[Passionfordancing1]

''Maladies'' brought me here ;) :)

[blazak]

Dig The Mission of the Sacred Heart, my novel based on this album. Available on Amazon.

[mrgoatlives2003]

Thanks for the video and the GREAT, TIMELESS MUSIC!!

[nyneanderthal]

this was a great time for music

almost everything that was coming out was great!

[debbiefivealive]

love love love. no more to say :)

[inconsistanttruth]

elo is just good, simple and good, no quirk, nothing stupid to make themselves "stand out"

just good,

you can tell it's good because people of all generations still to this day love it, where will lady gaga be in 40 years? psychology handbooks that's where

[jpotor67]

one of my favorite songs of all time. they cant make music any finer

[omgitsthemTV]

2:00

..one 21 guns, lay down your arms..

Hmm.. seems like green day copied, ;l

[james77196]

perfect harmony

[PilotDJ192]

This would be a great song to hear when you're on hold for some customer service thing

[Sanedmex1]

@PilotDJ192  very funny! hahaha

[JaneJeffer]

Too bad it gets cut off at the end :(

[HESM241261]

Este es el mejor tema de la E.L.O, creo que nunca pudo superar la calidad armónica y rítmica que consiguió con esta obra.

[amiaba1975]

its the best song, well one of the best

[cowgirl2173]

can't get the lyrics of this song out of my head :(

[musicfan088]

AWESOME TRACK, I LOVE THIS SONG!

[lurpinator]

Cocaine is a helluva drug!

[Agnarian]

[ShadeTheHedgehog]

[ezgoing18]

I have not watched "Billy Madison", for this song, I WILL!!!

[ChromeSkull940]

who is here becuz of Billy Madison?!

[menstruatingorchid]

@ChromeSkull940 -I actually never noticed this song in the movie until after I started listening to ELO

[119glory]

@tamerswan thats very speculative; but as if if they can watch a random video on youtube which requires alot of bandwidith and a computer, and yet they could never have seen a telephone!
