Featuring the operatic voice of Mary Thomas during the introduction, she flubbed the first take by starting the vocals too early. However, Jeff Lynne elected to use the take (complete with her interjection, "Oops!") anyway. During live performances, the 'aria' was provided by the band's bassist Kelly Groucutt

Ahh Perfect! All has sense now... sorry for my mistakes I was so happy by find the lyrics... I guess they write "oe" when they try to use "ö" I found it in a kind of interview I guess the things was messed up in the translation. Thanks for all! Now I can sing it!!!

LOVE ME, I GOT THE LYRICS!! I found it today after search a lot... and I gives to you for free:
We... oops
Weit in der Ferne, man hoert, man hoeret die Musik
I knew that was german, I knew it. It means: "Far in the distance, one hears, one hears the music"
Now I can sing the complete song! Take those lyrics and spread it to the world!

Does anyone know what the opera bird is singin at the start of this tune? It jus bugs me that i can't work it out!

Oops (English) = Ups (German). Maybe we should call Jeff in LA re this... Either way, raise your glasses to Mary and Kelly (anyone heard his solo album?)!



Brilliant!!! Excellent!!! Fantastic!!!

close, but i think you all missed the word "hinter". I am not german, but its my neighbouring country and i speak the language pretty ok. But still i could be wrong :).
The Opera part i believe is:
Weit, hinter in die ferne, man hört, man hört die muzik.
roughly translates to "Far, back there in the distance , one hears , one hears the music"
