Mr. Blue Sky - Beatles Tribute

[TheMaddster2000]

At 0:37 it looks like hes not wearing pants but just really high socks. lol

[ryanjgtz]

I like the video but I really think it would more sense if the song in a tribute was performed by the band being tributed. Tribute to Beatles...with a song by ELO

[CutiePie4325]

Looking at how happy they were, all I can think is, damn, there's something in life that these guys knew that I don't.

[MaxximumRide]

Don't you love it when you have a wonderful week then you listen to this song and just feel like dancing (:

[gremlynne]

its called text chat or haven't you ever heard of it? you really need to get out more :-)

[rador7]

Well done!

[Barnum5150]

@gremlynne Beatles suck? That's like saying the earth is flat or that the Black Eyed Peas are better than ELO. Besides, I'm not sure it's possible to hate the Beatles and like ELO, their styles are so similar.

[WhiteBoy1938]

A MIXTURE OF TWO THINGS I LIKE:D

[PADOC76]

If you're going to pay tribute to the most successful band in history,

the least you could do is play one of their own classics.

[kylekadduide]

@PADOC76 Y'know, it said in big friendly letters: Mr. Blue Sky - Beatles Tribute...I mean, if your a Beatles fan, you should know that this wasn't done by the Beatles in the first place. So why are you here and complaining? None of my GOD DAMN BUSINESS....whoa, sorry for the language there....

[jayhawks25]

I've always been surprised this song wasn't by the Beatles. It could easily fit in with Sgt. Pepper.

[thedarkshitstain]

my only issue with this is that you cut off the last part

[googoogajoob258]

@thedarkshitstain yeah, sorry about that. I did it because it went on for so long and there just wasn't much I could do with it. I actually did try to keep it in but it didn't work out right.

[thedarkshitstain]

@googoogajoob258 Oh its quite alright, still a great video

[hotelmario510]

You guys understand it's a tribute to the band with an ELO song, right?

At NO POINT does the poster say that the Beatles did Mr. Blue Sky. It's just a tribute.

[utwolfy]

it just occurred to me that this could have been a Beatles tune..if they had progressed past 1070. what a thought. ELO is still awesome!

[Partyman908]

Fuck poontang200 Beatles rock and the E.L.O did this

[poontang200]

Beetles suck

[Craziguy33]

@poontang200 woah, you're crazy

[hotelmario510]

@poontang200 Oh yeah, I hate those little bastards, too, with their shelled exoskeletons, who do they think they are?

The BEATLES, on the other hand...they're pioneers of modern rock.

[poontang200]

@hotelmario510 no, they just came to the right place at the right time if they came any other time they would be shit on like the there crap music

[hotelmario510]

@poontang200 Well, this generation is officially fucked.

[Stuffedcrust55]

@poontang200 you suck retard

[poontang200]

@Stuffedcrust55 blow me faggot

[Stuffedcrust55]

@poontang200 blow what ur moms dick?

[Dr3wspr4y]

I love youtube

[bobnatstan]

The video is a disgrace to the song, ELO is a million times better than than the Beatles!

[gremlynne]

why would you put a poxy beatles video to a class band like elo. yh jeff lynne was influenced by em but only coz he knew he cud do a better job (which he did) if anythin the beatles shudv done a tribute to elo or theydv been long forgotten.

[googoogajoob258]

@gremlynne learn proper spelling and grammar before you attempt to make an argument, it'll help you out a lot, believe me :)

[gremlynne]

@googoogajoob258 4 ur info mr i can spell properly n leave my granma out this she knows nothin about it n anyway wots spellin got 2 do wiv it? elo rule beatles suck. simple..

[kylekadduide]

@googoogajoob258 Man, this is youtube, grammar doesn't mean crap. Like, for instance, watch this......hai guys! lol, like on halo i was usin mai rofl an no one stop me! SEE! Nothing happened! Sure, people like you won't take me as serious, but I stopped caring about that long ago! Wait, whats the point of this comment then? I don't know. But I know that I love this song and I gave you a like, should I give you a sub?

[CutiePie4325]

@kylekadduide seriously*

(trololo)

[googoogajoob258]

@kylekadduide thank you very much :-) yes, sub if you'd like!

[spotofblack]

@googoogajoob258 Lol seriously, I mean I love both bands but I'm not going to say one is better than the other, although The Beatles are my favorite of all time. :D

[clark6050]

@gremlynne you know not spelling like a second grader with a mental disablity will really help people respect your argument.

[dcanjura123]

@gremlynne your fucking stupid,jeff lynne once said that he wished to be as good as the beatles,he also said that he "wanted to pick up where i am the walrus left off". elo is great no doubt but the beatles are many times greater, elo acknowledged it and its a fact. they elo even made a song called "beatles forever" and he said that he didnt know why he wasnt like the beatles.

[speeta]

This song owes something to Good Day Sunshine.

[googoogajoob258]

@EsoIsLoQueSheSaid have you seen the anthologies? If not, definitely check them out. HOURS of nothing but the Beatles :)

[EsoIsLoQueSheSaid]

this is REALLY GOOD. i loved it and it kinda made me wish they had a movie based on the Beatles. very very good

[jimidee33]

Jeff Lynn got stuck on the second side of Abbey Road in his own efforts and that is not a bad thing! Jeff Lynn always wanted to be a Beatle and came close joining George and Paul in various recordings as producer and co singer.

[stephenrdade]

@jimidee33 And Lynne was in the Travelling Wilburys with Harrison (and Dylan, Orbison, and Petty)

[jimidee33]

@stephenrdade True. And they made some good music. I also forgot to mention that Lynn produced Ringo as well.

[ilovepavlovanomnom]

Calm down! It's a good video. No need to fear something different.

[googoogajoob258]

@voice940 valid points, but you see it's MY video. So you can conclude that I made it the way I wanted it to be. I felt the song accurately conveyed the mood I was aiming for, and that there were already so many Beatles videos using Beatles songs, I wanted mine to be different. If you don't like it, though, you could simply not watch it.

[deusprogrammer]

@googoogajoob258 I for one approve. This is putting two of my favorite things together. Mr Blue Sky for me represents a time in the world when things were better. And the Beatles were all about feeling groovy. So the two go together so well. Thank you for this video =D.

[chroylikesfish]

out of all the beatles songs out there............you picked an ELO song?

[gmfree]

Why would you take away from ELO by making a video of their song with another band? Crap

[bobobo2221]

@gmfree Why would you not read the top uploader comment?. So therefore, your observations skills are crap.

[TrueMangaAnimeLover]

It's weird how much they sound like The Beatles. When I heard "Don't Bring Me Down" on the radio, I thought it was them.

[animascat]

rather avant gard or am i being pretentious.

[mellamosean]

@animascat neither.

[LAHosner]

1:23 Dance it out John!

[SusanUpstairs]

Jeff Lynne really did want to be a Beatle! Nice video - I get it!

[Nilaikx]

aww dude you got me excited for a beatles cover of mr. blue sky D: cool video though

[Bluenuhvok765]

This video needs more of The Walrus! :U But otherwise, you did awesome! I love this song and the Beatles, so I'll be listening to more of ELO based on what I've heard about them.

[Rboybot]

I didn't realise it was ELO until about twenty seconds in, you must admit he does sound a little like John.

[Chickenlordable]

I am the 16,001 viewer. I ruined the even number. You're welcome.

[googoogajoob258]

@Chickenlordable Thank you :D

[doggonemess1]

There's something very funny about a song by a band in the style of the Beatles with a video montage of the Beatles. Love it, fits the music perfectly.

[byeager53]

man you dont know how long i been looking for this song

[MasonIanFox]

Does anything make u feel better ELO or not?

[ImYemi1994]

You would think the beatles made this song wen yu first hear it..

[SufferInJuly]

No more of the blue. Chemtrails are daily.

[PredatorSnipezZ]

Heard this on the radio and was searching The Beatles - Hey there mr blue until i found this video and realised it was ELO haha!

[JMO271]

haha. Great. Love the Beatles. love this ELO song. Dancing about the living room as i type!!

[pieandeggnogman]

Amazing! The two greatest bands to grace this earth. :'D I wish I was around to see them.

I love the begging with them walking down the stairs in sync XD

[pieandeggnogman]

Wow, the two best bands to grace this earth... :'D Amazing!

[hspyman1]

THIS IS ELO!!!!! Good Try

[googoogajoob258]

@hspyman1 no need to be an ass. read the description.

[R3M3MB3RxM3]

@googoogajoob258 Still false title... and he wasnt being an ass, he was just saying =P

[voice940]

@googoogajoob258 kind of dumb though isnt it? It's like showing a montage of Elvis clips with Buddy Holly in the background. It's not like you couldn't find a good Beatles tune to use. You get people's hopes up - thinking it's THE BEATLES - MR. BLUE SKY. That would be an awesome cover - esp since the Beatles weren't exactly getting along in '77

[mellamosean]

@googoogajoob258

elo. deceptive title, bad boy

[InsanePiratePosse]

@hspyman1 Do you not know what a tribute is?? :D 

[hspyman1]

THIS IS ELO!!!!!

[clark6050]

wow this isn't the beatles? they sound alot like them.

[chrisscoll2011103049]

bring a tear to me eye

[thebeatles962]

when evaer i hear this song (Mr.Blue Sky by ELO) i always think of John and Paul ;) xx

[MiichaelaWalssh]

i never knew they sang this ? :D

[fandude15]

is it really not the beatles at all it sounds like something they would write cause me and my dad were watching american dad and this song was at the beginning of the episode and i knew ELO sang it but i did they write it?

[CatseaTheCat]

lol yup its relly good

[CatseaTheCat]

lol not thebeatles but still love it

[bandgeek551]

VERY nice job! I really enjoyed the whole thing! Btw, the singer sounds sorta like John xD

[CookieFace36]

Great video Emily! :)

[holubkow]

omg >..< mistake! 2:21 instead of 0:21

[holubkow]

@googoogajoob258  thaaaaaank you :D

[S10Connor2]

who sang this song??? it sounds like john lennon in parts!

[googoogajoob258]

@S10Connor2 Electric Light Orchestra- ELO haha it sorta does!

[4FabBEATLES]

The interesting thing is some of the video clips fit perfectly to the rythm of the song like drums,paul on the hill and the Beatles dancing in their stripe suits. Cool song. ELO is awesome. Nt to mention Jeff Lynne worked with George Harrison,Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison and Jim Keltner in the band The Traveling Wilburys

[HoganRox12]

@googoogajoob258 mine was weird he is on the Lord Of The Rings and he is a hobbit! xD

[HoganRox12]

i know this will sound wierd! lol but Paul in the Fool on the hill reminds me of Frodo! xD

[JanelleandSean]

omg! the beginning to this song sounded like the Jell-o comercial, doesn't it? Reply to this comment and tell me

NICE VIDEO!!!!! :D

[The123Dreamer]

great video!!!

[SouthParkPerson012]

@googoogajoob258 well thank u, but i cant take full credit for it, i can take credit for the second half :P

[SouthParkPerson012]

[BeatlEPMJo]

Great musical choice and I love it!! =D<3

[shelley245]
