  • had this album on 8 track. For anyone who has no idea what that is, it's a Hi-Fidelity cassette with 8 audio tracks instead of the usual two. This meant the cassette was also like a cigar box. They were good but clunky and never really took off.

  • fucking <3!

  • broke up with my first love, while this song was playing on the jukebox :[

  • not computor music but very close and I love it

  • Music by talented musicians is hard to find today , but it is out there beyond the computer generated,bland simple junk.

  • Love you girl:) I can't get you:)

    

  • Can't get it outta my head, maybe I should just run with it....

  • @jamesedwardtheobald -- Wow!! Who pissed in your Cornflakes? Take a Happy pill & listen to "Mr Blue Sky" & grab a perky drink to lift your spirits some... Nostalgia is remembering fondly all that has gone before...& what we love. Poop in your own corner...not mine. Thank-you!

  • Comment removed

  • @sweetgypsy100 Damn pooping pissy pants anyhow! Nostalgia is the best and I always want that in my head. Well stated!

  • @frickfracked -- Thank-You & Peace & Joy in the new year! :)

  • great music from a time when life was stange...the weed was so so...and we all seemed to be in a hurry to grow-up...how stupid can people be??

  • @dustbowl424 Should we go get some teenagers and find out? But your right, we were in such a hurry to grow up because we thought we were missing out on something and when someone told us, "Enjoy it while you can", we just would'nt listen. Hindsight is 20/20 but in this case, it would have taken all the fun out of it.**note: I grew up in San Diego aka: swab city (no disrespect navy guys) and 20 min from mexico. For weed, that was a good place to be:)

  • love ELO really takes me back to make out parties, spin the bottle, flirting,dancing and all that fun stuff

  • I remember nickin this lp from the local paper shop under a bus conducters coat i boght from my mate. Best lp i ever nicked. Long time ago.

  • Ticket to the Moon! That is ANOTHER great ELO song.......so, so many.

  • I HATE THAT NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE HERE IN DOMINICAN REPUBLIC DOES NOT LIKE GOOD MUSIC

  • I AM ONLY 33 BUT I LOVE IT

  • awesome jam

  • Heard this last night & i almost forgot about this great gem, gotta say ELO was a great band then & now

  • Love this song. So many memories.

  • 2:20 shhh, epic moment

  • The best song from ELO.

  • 0 Dislikes--ppl with great taste make for wonderful company!! :)

  • Hypnotic & Enchanting--typical JL style.

  • Not only is this great music, but for those of us who were around when this band began, it holds a great many memories of times when we held so many hopes and dreams, we had no major responsiblities and the world was ours for the picking. We also believed nothing bad could ever happen in our lives. Those youthful memories happen but once in a lifetime and this music holds those incredible memories and that is one powerful bond. No wonder we love this music so much.

  • @Msdistarr well said..such a rad band...blows away currnt crap. Peace out! 1969 born oh yah

  • @TPATRICKT Why thank you very much. Born 1960 oh yah!! Have a great rest of your day!

  • @Msdistarr Perfectly said..I absolutely could listen to ELO all day long.They take me back to a time when life was so stress free and life was fun to live..At least we still have the music..Thanks for the music Jeff Lynne and ELO.

  • @lenapaco I really believe that there is that bond between memories & the music and it being one of the best times of our lives. Thats why the instant we hear the music, poof!, we travel back 25+ years. Not to be debby downer, but I think it's a 2 edged sword. What If your life REALLY didn't meet your expectations and sucked, it would be hard to listen to this music cuz you would go back those 25 years, compare dreams to current reality and shit, you'd want to go buy a gun. What do you think?

  • @Msdistarr I think it would be sadder without the music regardless of how our lives turned out..The music reminds us of the hopes and dreams we once had and how good it made us and still makes us feel..That's the key, it makes us feel, and as long as we keep feeling, it's better than feeling numb.Then you're in trouble..For me personally, music is my savior..

  • @lenapaco Just so you know, I totally agree and was looking at what could be the flip side of those memories. Like you, music is my savior. My husband died suddenly and unexpectedly and I didn't handle it well, to put it mildley. We didn't have kids so I couldn't find anything to keep me going and the anxiety was unbearable. The only place I could find an ounce of peace was under a set of headphones with music. Not only does it retain our wonderful memories but it helps us to heal.

  • @Msdistarr Hello again..So sorry for what you've been through, now i understand that remark about the gun..I truly hope that the music can continue to be a great source of comfort and inspiration for you..Had it not been for music, i don't think i would be here today..Losing someone you love is the most hardest thing in this world, and for me music is what got me through..Take care and please feel free to keep in touch..Lena

  • @Msdistarr don worry about the kid i know like you that theres a level of music that touches instead of angering i liked your post and life always has the good and the bad

  • @Msdistarr  I'm 42, you could have not put your comment any better. Thanks.

  • @gerjac42 Thanks for your kind comment. Take care and have a great day!

  • @mrmantra69 damn you stole my joke

  • I cant get this song out of my head........

  • Lullaby music...:)

  • Thanx for posting these really nice ELO tunes.....

  • you keep picking them--i will keep listening--and thanks

  • time machine already here we call it youtube

  • Jeff Lynne is a Genius!

  • THE MIGHTY ELO

  • What a great song,....1975,....Cant Get It Out Of My Head,..ELO,....Peaked at# 9 on the Billboard 100 Chart in the spring of 1975,....My 2nd favorite ELO song

  • @Hot100daze1976to1997 what's the favorite?

  • beyond fabulous....timeless....thank you for posting!

  • that 10 second wait at the beginning almost killed me.

  • when music was music.

  • you should do ALL ELO songs cause ELO kicks fuckin ass

  • @luvyellowroses1

    I agree; well, thanks again, I'll see ya; peace and love.

  • @luvyellowroses1

    U 2 (get it? LOL).

  • @luvyellowroses1

    Thanks, same to you; I think I'll go listen to some REO Speedwagon (but, hey, don't tell anybody, but I'm kind of a closet Katy Perry fan too lol!). See ya!

  • @luvyellowroses1

    Well, just the wife, but that's good (plus 2 daughters and 4 grandkids, which is great, so I guess things aren't all bad today lol). Actually, I guess "my favorite year" (ironically the same year the movie came out, and it's still one of my favories) would have to be 1982, when I was 18. I've managed to keep 4 very good freinds from those years, we just had dinner together a couple of weeks ago.

  • @luvyellowroses1

    Oh, sure, my wife had an Impala convertable, I had a lava lamp (of course we were both teenagers and didn't know each other yet); everything seemed a little more real to me then, and little more visceral (and a lot more "soulful").

  • @luvyellowroses1 Not this time, rain is the only thing true and sincere in my adult life, the only thing I can rely on!

  • @luvyellowroses1 Its too cloudy and pouring rain for stars

  • @luvyellowroses1 Absolutely....no SUBSTANCE from my world

  • ELO is just GOOD!!! all day long. They were soooo ahead of their time, it still amazes me to this day!!

  • they just wrote this so I couldn't get it out of my head...

  • Wszycy macie rację-ELO jest niepowtarzalne!

  • Ha Ha..I'm Leaving Earth..I'll Be Back In 4 Minutes And 35 Seconds, Later!!

  • Lead in on this one is a bit long. I was concerned it might have empty content.

  • ELO are simply one of the best bands to exist. They're unique sound is incredible and completely ground breaking. So much better than the absolute shit that gets played nowadays, I'm 18 and for me, ELO is still where it's at.

  • @dizzy2142 finally a young person who knows what music is!

  • im typing thru my tears

  • Awesome!

  • brilliant song like most of their others, such an underrated band

  • tune!!!!

  • Always liked this song. Its mesmerizing in the beginning. When I here all ELO songs is brings me back to my child hood. I wish I had a time machine. Do you have roll over Beethoven. As a child that was one of my favorites.

  • @bubba0725 there is an obscure ELO track that might allude to time travel when you play a segment of it backwards.Do you know which one it is?

  • just 50000 views!!!...cant belive this! Im worring about this times guys!

  • Ah, the good ol' days; hair that was a nice length, jeans that actually fit the person wearing them, no "soulja boy"; man, I've really got to get back to work on that time machine!

  • @jerico641 if you get it working, let me know. i would go back to the 70's in a heartbeat

  • @backhouse2k5

    You'll be the first to know; I'll call you anywhere from 1978 to 1982 (I'll of course come back and pick you up LOL)!

  • @jerico641 let me know when you finish it. i never got to live in that beautiful time...

  • @gibbie31

    Oh, I've got a list started for it; you're at number 3 I think lol

  • @jerico641 hey who wouldnt want to be on the list

  • @gibbie31

    Well, not surprisingly, my teenage daughter, for one LOL.

  • @jerico641 Wish I lived then, my quality of life would've been so much better.

  • @gorillazhead

    When were you born?

  • @jerico641 The 90's.

    It's not like the 90's weren't great, but today just fucking sucks.

  • @gorillazhead

    Oh, mercy, you make me feel so old! My youngest daughter was born in 1992. Seriously, though, I'm glad you like some of the music from the 70s (and 80s), especially ELO. If I could make some other music suggestions, I'd say try Supertramp (their sound is similar to ELO's), Styx, and ABBA (if you're not already familiar with all of these). I sure wish my daughter appreciated music like this; she even gets mad when I start singing in the car! lol

  • @jerico641 Heard and love all of them, I get laughed at for listening to "Dancing Queen," but I really don't.

    and I know what you mean, my 2 sisters always rag on me for listening to "old people music."

  • @gorillazhead

    Well, tell them I said to leave you alone; keep the oldies alive!

  • @gorillazhead I really don't care*

  • RRRRrrrrrrrrr.  Best Ever !!

  • @Spuweee it sounds very similar to the intro of "Let It Be"

  • my older brother use to love ELO

  • The middle 8 is a redo of the Beatles (Lennon) In my Life.

  • The start of this this song always reminds me of John Lennon. Sounds like a typical Lennon intro.

  • such an under-rated band, the man was good enuf to play with bob dylan and george harrison, a true genuis matching classical with rock

  • When I sang this song in Karaoke a while back , it was the first standing ovation I ever got, and I had many of the 21 somethings that were there asking me the name of this song, This music is stuff they need to get into, becauseit is pure and beautiful and true lyrics, This song always makes me just want to sing it with so much emotion just like ELO did.

  • " oUT oF tHE bLUE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ELO was so good. I loved everything they ever recorded and always will; They had songs for different moods. Strange Magic is probably my favorite, but not by much.

  • seriously, this song should have 45 million views...true song writing genious

  • It sounds muted, wish I could hear it more clearly. A beautiful song.

  • i LOVE THIS.!

  • love love love it! totally forgot about this one!

  • eye

    

  • i'm always in aww every time i hear this one , wow simply perfect !

  • Fantastic music! Lynne is the best composer in 100 years.

  • *F you BP! you will not clean this up or make a damn thing right.! stop advertising on youtube you soulless bastards!!!!!

    

  • @MRsophacles Oh HELL YES! Lying SCUM left the blowback preventer

    valve off the rig and LET IT HAPPEN!

    NOBODY should EVER BUY BP GAS...THEY RUINED OUR GULF

    FISHING INDUSTRY & THE CAJUN BAYOU ENVIRONMENT FOREVER.

  • Have you done  Shangra la ??? yet ??

  • 'm gonna write the shotgun part :)

  • my mom wrote it...the triangle part

  • Saw them in concert.....what a show!!!

  • Just beautiful! Thank you....

  • Perfect theme song for my neurotic mind. I just can't stop thinking about things and then this song literally starts playing in my head and then I can't get IT out of my mind.

  • Beautiful song. This band is just brilliant! I cannot believe how old this music is now. It feels like it was just 10 years ago when this came out (at the most), but I know better. If I'm not mistaken, it was the late 70's, maybe very early 80's. I was in my late teens or early 20's. Oh god, the memories!!

  • jeff lynne could be the fifth beatle

  • "Walking on a wave's chicane...."

  • awesome awesome song.  awesomer when stoned.

  • aways will be great

  • amazing! simple and amazing!

  • This album reminds me so much of being in California in the late 70s. Everyone wanted to borrow this album, especially all of the guys that belonged to the car club called The Mini Modifieds of Southern California. Man do i Ever hate these Cold winters of Michigan and i plan to get back out there before too long!

  • my favorite ELO song. gorgeous

  • @MrJonk1969 It is gorgeous......couldn't have said it any better.

  • Although ELO had released albums before Eldorado. This song was my introduction to the group back in 1974.

    Eldorado was a common sight amongst record collections in and around your typical neighborhood of friends back then. Just as common in fact as Dark Side of the Moon and believe it or not... Brain Salad Surgery.

  • I usually listen to melodic death metal and Metallica but ELO fucking rocks. ;)

  • @starfish33 same here man elo is the best

  • Wow! Another good song by E.L.O! They were flaming great!! What compares now? So sad at the shit ''talent'' now !!

  • One of the biggest rock-compositions ever.

    I miss such a sound from todays music.

  • GREAT SONG

  • la electricno merece comentarios solo escucharlos y deleitarse

  • sitting til the sun goes down in dreams the world keeps going round and round

  • Wonderful unique song!

  • Just for you my darling Natalie xxx

    I can't get YOU out of my head........smiles

  • why doesnt anybody slow down ?check out the vibe

  • I'd love to hear Let It Run off of The Electric Dreams movie album!

  • ive got this song on the album elrado overture the one with wizard of theme

  • This was ELO's first major hit in the U.S., reaching #9 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in March 1975. It's such a beautiful song with amazing instrumentation that very well demonstrates the unique sound that can only come from ELO.

    Thank you so much for sharing this great classic gem with us, happydude!

  • Thank you thank you thank you

  • I cant get this song outta my head, Brilliant Thanks for Postin.
