  • ELO?

    excellent music. lots of memories this film

  • i think ive seen this like 500 times? lol great music...

  • love those US 80s ads that Edgar shows up on the screen!

  • Great song/movie. Gotta love Bud Cort as the computer

  • I remember watching this movie back in 80s, growing up in Guyana, and it is what drove me to work with computers. My "intense infatuation" with Virginia Madsen, however, had started with the movie Fire With Fire ... that infatuation has never diminished.

  • This tune sure goes nice back to back with ELO's SECRET MESSAGES. Yes I know Jeff Lynne did them both.

  • Comment removed

  • Now looks very dated but I can remember when this album was released in 1984...some wonderful warm memories of days and loved ones long since gone..

  • Its Moles :-)

  • Jeff Lynne just brill.............

  • I have now got this fantastic film now on DVD, and it is still the best film ever. Love it alot so much.

  • How did you get it on DVD? I've been looking for it.

  • Great Song & Wonderfull Love Story!!! The 80's will never be forgotten!!!! Thanks for posting vid / song!!

  • Great Film - The Best Ever.

  • Thanks very much scottster727. I had cried to heard this songs...what a wonderful time for 80's generation & I remembered how i was always dancing for hours and hours in the parent's hall. God bless you

  • I can always recognize Jeff Lynne and I always looovvvveee it!!

  • I was graduating high school in 87. At the time, this was an awesome film. Looking back, that hasn't changed one bit. In fact, it gave me my unhealthy fixation on Virginia Madsen (How could it NOT???) that lasts to this day. Can't believe it took until 'Sideways' for her to get an Oscar. I wept that day... (Well, not really, but close..) Thanks for posting! I need to see this movie again!

  • Yeah, I know the feeling (Middle School, here). When it comes to Virginia Madsen, is there really a such thing as unhealthy fixation??

  • No, I guess not. She will forever be as she was here in this film; smart, HOT, and talented. Perfect!

  • cute movie. this was one of my favs from the 80s along with xanadu.

  • I LOVED this movie... I always thought it was genius

  • me too!!! such a great movie!!!

  • I liked this song in 1984 very much. It was

    a good year before I was going to the army.

    A very sad thing ! Good memories.

  • @scottster727 I love Virginia Madsen!

  • I had the 7"picture disc of this. Great song although i thought the B-side 'Sooner Or Later' was better

  • Mi película favorita de los 80s, VIDEO VIDEO oh oh

  • Jeff Lynne's music is pure magic.

  • talk about memories...wow! thanks!!!

  • OMG! Loved this movie!!!!! Thanks for this..!

  • Thanks for posting this.Electric Dreams is one of my favorite flicks and the soundtrack is great!if any one out there knows how to get a copy of the movie on dvd please let me know!

  • This is a great movie, one of my favs. Because it was produced by Richard Branson and Virgin Records (trying to branch out to movies at the time), it's not available on DVD. I keep looking, but the only ones out are cheap VHS transfers. I still have my VHS copy I taped from HBO circa 1990!

  • One of my favorite movies from this period, as well; and a favorite Jeff Lynne/ELO song, too!

  • I want this movie!!!!

  • i love elo and so does my 5yr old daughter i love this film xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • thanks! yeah, they don't make music or movies like the 80s... that decade had the best personality and style!!! GO 80s!!!

  • @sunderlanda1

    A female ELO fan...Marry Me.......:-)

  • This has to be one of my favourite 80s songs even though I wasn't even born then. Electric Dreams isn't the only film Jeff Lynne provided songs for. He did 'With A Little Help From My Friends/Nowhere Man' for All This And World War II and he did 'Wild Times' for 'Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves'

  • and 5 songs for the movie Xanadu from 1980

  • :) "I never got your name"..... "It's Edgarrrrrrrrrrr"

  • awesome!!! my fav. movie EVER!! thanks so much!

  • I used to watch this movie alot when it was first on Australian tv Nov'85. After 1986 I never saw it again until 2002.
