This song made me cry when I was in high school hoping for a girlfriend. It now makes me cry, 46 years later, when I reminisce about my 29-year marriage that ended in an unwanted divorce. If I live to be 92, there will probably be a new reason to cry when I hear this. And I'm okay with that.
I fell for Rosie and I’m so sad I hurt her I wish the night we passed each other on stage and she touched me I didn’t see her pain through that beautiful smile ! I love you Rosie
Hello, how are you? Have you been alright through all those lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely Lonely nights? That's what I'd say I'd tell you everything if you'd pick up that telephone Yeah, yeah, yeah Hey, how ya feelin'? Are you still the same? Don't you realise the things we did, we did Were all for real? Not a dream I just can't believe they've all faded out of view Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Ooh-woo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Doo-wop, doo-be-doo-doo-wop, doo-wah, doo-lang Blue days, black nights, doo-wah, doo-lang I look into the sky (the love you need ain't gonna see you through) And I wonder why (the little things you planned ain't coming true) Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time I'm living in twilight Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time I'm living in twilight Okay, so no one's answering Well, can't you just let it ring a little longer, longer, longer? Oh I'll just sit tight, in shadows of the night Let it ring forevermore, oh-whoa Yeah, yeah, yeah Doo-wop, doo-be-doo-doo-wop, doo-wah, doo-lang Blue days, black nights, doo-wah, doo-lang I look into the sky (the love you need ain't gonna see you through) And I wonder why (the little things you planned ain't coming true) Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time I'm living in twilight Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time I'm living in twilight Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time I'm living in twilight Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time I'm living in twilight
My sister Sarah died one year ago of Covid-19 and I could only say goodbye to her in a telephone from 250 miles away. As you might imagine this song cuts deep and I'm a mess right now. Rest in Peace, Sally. We all love and miss you so much.😔
Jeff Lynne is a supremely talented singer/songwriter/musician, he has always surrounded himself with brilliant musicians and on this occasion one of them was his girlfriend of the time, the gorgeous 'Rosie Vella' ! Lucky lad! dx
I love so much that ELO ever did, but this song remains their greatest. This is a very nice live version, but there's something so poignant about the studio version with the phone ringing and Jeff's vocals being treated to make it sound as if he is literally singing over a phone line.
Most of us that grew up with these songs heard them on scratchy AM radio bands and eventually the wonder of 8 track tape where we could play them at will. The lucky few got to hear it live. What a treat with todays technology; to hear it as it was meant to be heard in all its richness.
One of those songs that lasts the passages of time ,My mother passed away A month ago 28th of April 2023 at age 77 that was all we had for years was telephone conversations and the odd Skype video, she was shy being old and frail and over weight so the phone was best ,she and I had 1500 kms between us, so seeing in person wasn't easy, love you Mom this song will always help me remember.
Sorry to hear of your loss. Another relative of mine told me after my mom passed...that's the last person in this world who loved you unconditionally. Take care of yourself.

After40 years of concerts, it was incredibly fantastic to take my wife and kids!!! Have seen them all but hadn't seen ELO since 1977 when I saw Zeppelin as well. I love how Jeff picked up where the BEATLES left off in 1970. The orchestra just makes it like Magical Mystery Tour all over again!!!
Kylie Pollert Zoom tour preview concert 2001. Filmed at cbs television city in Hollywood. Assembled a great band but tour was canceled due to 9/11 and Jeff split up the band and tour. His then girlfriend Rosie Vela was on the background vocals. They were pretty damn good!
Posted more than a decade ago and 25 comments? I'm sure I watched this in 2009 and there were more comments back then...including one of mine which is no longer here...weird; Must be a "Mandela effect" type thing.

Jeff Lynne and Rosie vale were magic together I wish they were still a item ❤️😘🤗
She really stands out on the backing vocals on this..
Amazing , i can’t stop listening to this version ❤
'never thought much of this song as a teenager. Of late, this has been growing on me. And each time it takes out a piece of me.
Same
It's great to hear voices that's as good live as in a recording studio. I've found many that weren't. ❤
A perfect song performed by Genius Musicians
I fell for Rosie and I’m so sad I hurt her I wish the night we passed each other on stage and she touched me I didn’t see her pain through that beautiful smile ! I love you Rosie
To this day his voice is still phenomenal..
miss my dad
is this concert on a particular elo concert dvd?
Ero con te 😢💔😢
GO Greg
La cague en algún momento solo salir adelante
This song ended too soon. It needs another hour. Brilliant piece of writing.
Hello, how are you?

Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time
I'm living in twilight
Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time

Beautiful song..I hope it brings you some comfort.....Rest in Peace................🥀🥀🥀
☹️
😇sending prayers
God bless you and your Sister 🙏🏻 tragic loss, please try and stay strong 🙏🏻
God bless you.
Jeff is one of the true musical geniuses of our modern time.
yes he is his music rocks
Just below Paul McCartney.
Beautiful
They don't write music like this anymore
You can sure say that again!! AGREE..
The best encapsulation of lonliness ever.
This is the soundtrack of my youth! ELO, Paul McCartney and Wings, Leo Sayer...ahh the 70’s
This song, believe it or not stopped me getting a divorce.
Jeff Lynne thank you for saving my marriage ❤❤
do tell

Your correct sir!
What a pure voice, unenhanced, without any processor, tuner, delay, reverb....
There’s a heartbreaking loneliness that resounds through this whole song…..love it ………………..ELO…….simply the Best……
One of those songs that lasts the passages of time ,My mother passed away A month ago 28th of April 2023 at age 77 that was all we had for years was telephone conversations and the odd Skype video, she was shy being old and frail and over weight so the phone was best ,she and I had 1500 kms between us, so seeing in person wasn't easy, love you Mom this song will always help me remember.

Jeff is a ver best of músics and a genius
Genius! Thank you Jeff Lynne and ELO for all your beautiful music! Life is better with beautiful music!
One word brilliant
8 people didnt like this. I guess there could be 8 people that hate music.

Hello- how are you?
여보세요 - 안녕하세요
Have you been alright,
잘 지내고 계신가요
through all those lonely~~ nights?
그 모든 외로운 밤들을 거치면서도요?
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything
제가 하고픈 말은 그건데, 님께 다 말씀드리죠.
If you've pick up that telephone
당신이 그 수화기만 들어 주신다면요...
Yeah~~ ♩~♬~Instrumental~♪~♬
Hey- how you feelin'? Are you still the same?
이봐요, 기분은 어때요? 변함없이 그대론가요?
Don't you realize the things we did
감이 안 잡혀요? 우리가 했던 그 모든 것들이
were all for real not a dream?
꿈이 아니라 현실이었다는 걸 말이예요?
I just can't believe
난 믿기지가 않는군요
They've all faded out of view yeah
그 모든 것들이 흔적도 없이 사라졌다니...
Blue days black nights doowah doolang
When I look into the sky, the love you need ain't gonna see you through
And I wonder why the little things you planned ain't coming true
전 하늘을 쳐다보며, 그 이유를 알고 싶습니다
Telephone line, give me some time
이 전화선 - 부디 내게 시간을 좀 주었으면
I'm living in twilight
나는 지금 황혼 속에서 살고 있기에
O.K, so no-one's answering
됐어요, 아무도 안 받는군요
Well can't you just let it ring a little longer~~?
그래도 조금만 더 울리도록 해줄 순 없을까요?
Oh~ I'll just sit tight,
전 꼿꼿이 앉아서 기다릴 거예요
through shadows of the night
밤 그림자가 완전히 사라질 때까지요,
Let it ring for evermore
저 전화벨 소리가 영원히 울리도록요...

Que música linda 🇧🇷
After40 years of concerts, it was incredibly fantastic to take my wife and kids!!! Have seen them all but hadn't seen ELO since 1977 when I saw Zeppelin as well. I love how Jeff picked up where the BEATLES left off in 1970. The orchestra just makes it like Magical Mystery Tour all over again!!!
Ffs 🙈 That’s just brilliant, was at school when this first came out, still a classic 👍🏻👍🏻
Summer 76 I had it all. Car girlfriend (later my wife now in heaven), and this was on the radio
Love this song live and with the Bissonette brothers playing Bass and Drums making it one of the best live performances I've ever seen of this song.
Perfect
Beautiful ❤
Rosie Vela?!!
On how i wish to go back in time
Beethoven of his time
Where was this taken from? This is my favorite of theirs
New World Record - Wore it out at College in Fall of 1976
Billy Madison
