This album came out and my son, loved it. He was a big fan. Then he passed away from cancer. He was 37. Didnt know he had it. I will always think of him when i hear this
My favorite song from my favorite band. I love the original. It had a sitting in a park feel. This has more of a biking home from school on a Friday evening feel.
icky thump 800000 oh dude that might be my favorite...it's tough. I love Can't Get it out of my Head, Showdown, Sweet Talkin Woman, Boy Blue. I probably have a top 25 ELO songs and they're all tied. I love them all. I saw them live in Chicago last August - AMAZING. Also saw Pixies and Weezer in July. Talk about best summer concerts of my life
NintendoCapriSun The Moody Blues, another of my favorite bands of all time! And in fact in 1986 both ELO and the Moody Blues shared the same stage for a charity concert called "Heart beat 86'. And George Harrison also paid a little visit!
My Dad loved ELO. He got a Kick out of watching ELO play this song and them having a fire extinguisher as an instrument in Mr. Blue Sky. Thanks Weezer for the Nostalgia and converging one of my favorite bands with my Dads. Miss ya Dad!
I used to sing this song to my little old blind dog and he'd dance and shake his tail. His name was Louie, but he responded to Woo. So I'd be like "hey, hey mista woo!"
peli roja my life as i suspect everyone’s is a roller coaster of ups and downs. It is getting through those times when your down that matters. And love from a complete stranger helps, getting better to answer your question! Pease and love to all, even our racist president
I know Jeff Lynne loved this when he heard it. When doing someone else's music you really have to nail it to do it justice, and that you did Weezer. This is so very impressive.. Great work guys.
As someone who bought Out of the Blue when it was new, this is an amazing cover of Mr Blue Sky. I really didn't expect Weezer to nail it as good as they did. Don't get me wrong, Weezer is great but Mr Blue Sky is one of ELOs most covered songs and one that few seldom get right.
@@second1814, no you got it wrong. Robert Merritt is spot on. This is an excellent cover. You have to be from that classic ELO era. I believe Jeff Lynne would approve.
I admit that when I was young, and weezer first came along, I was simply a metalhead and didn't really like this band too much until I saw the video for buddy holly in the happy days setting , but remained with the self given label of a metalhead who just liked stuff like slayer , motorhead, sepultura, and heavy bands like them. now a bit older, and I still refer to Lemmy as God , but I have definitely found this band to be one of the better bands to be around in the music world because this is a band with extraordinary talent/ability and a band that transcends beyond any labels , and they have certainly evolved and displayed true staying power. much respect to weezer
weird al , the guy that still has not aged . that dude is more talented than most people will ever realize. so many people will never see the beyond the gimmick to appreciate his actual level of talent . I remember the 90s as a teenager , the 90210 days of everybody trying to be all GQ . trends really dominated & restricted what a lot of the youth of that era were "allowed" to like or do. even I was guilty of that sort of thing a few times back then ; but then again , maybe that era had nothing to do with it and I say that because I work for a school district Maint Dept and today's generation of teenagers are just as bad about image and trends as the 90s generation was .
yes totally agree, was into heavier stuff when I was younger but the Buddy Holly video turned me onto them, and as I have gotten older I appreciate them more and more, Weird al is another one, and so is Jonathan Coulton, which is soon releasing a cover album himself of 70's soft rock songs
Dude, I could have written that word for word. I've loved Thrash/Death metal for what seems like my whole life and back in 95 when Weezer first popped up I didn't wanna hear it but now I completely see their genius.
@@second1814 art is suggestive, you don't have to like it, just means it wasn't written for your taste, and that's ok. Clearly plenty of other people enjoy it.
Jeff Lynne and ELO are my favourites of all time! He is well appreciated by me. And millions world wide. He has tons of awards and plaques. Just waiting for the Queen to Knight him.
This song is amazing. The cover is so good and amazingly similar. I play this song for my grandpa all the time and he loves it so much. He’s not that old, but I’m enjoying our time together and I never want to lose you.
@@sthcalguy3024 What so you mean? They barely play there covers at concerts. It's mostly there original songs. You people literally make me sick to my stomach. If you don't like the band turn it off.
1977 I was 16 years old driving a beat-up volts wagon convertible only had an AM radio, this song played on the radio several times per day The skies were much bluer n the 70's, don't know why
Thank you Weezer I should have commented a long time ago this is my favorite song ever and I really like all of you covers especially the viva la vida one
[Verse 1] The sun is shining in the sky There ain't a cloud in sight It's stopped raining, everybody's in the play And don't you know it's a beautiful new day, hey [Verse 2] Running down the avenue See how the sun shines brightly In the city, on the streets where once was pity Mr. Blue Sky is living here today, hey [Chorus] Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why You had to hide away for so long (So long) Where did we go wrong?

As a child of the 1970's ELO was my favorite band. This cover is freaking awesome. Thanks guys. It is one of my favorite ELO songs also and you guys rocked it.
@Christopher Bingham Well they actually used their style but also stay true to the original.The original of mr blue sky is already similar-ish to their style so it's not so different, unlike their other cover 'stand by me' which is originally not a rock song so...

This is one of my fav songs. If the Weez only put out an album of covers, I would not appreciate this one as much, but right behind this one is the"Black" Album... Boom!
I like how Weezer didn't mess with perfection, just played it verbatim (except single time drums at first ending) . Ultimate respect given to Jeff L., they just play it as it was. Nice!
I listened to this song ( original ) when I was 10 and it changed my life. Out of the blue was the first album of music I wanted to have because I discovered it for myself . To this day I can hear Out of the Blue , it is timeless , a perfectly produced album. Glad to find Weezer picking it for a cover.. Doing it justice ..and most important : with the coda. Never play Mr. Blue Sky without the coda!

My favorite song from my favorite band. I love the original. It had a sitting in a park feel. This has more of a biking home from school on a Friday evening feel.
I disagree. The original had a jumping on your bed feel. This has more of a walking your dog on a nice day feel.
Too bad it's Wednesday. Least it's payday

My Dad loved ELO. He got a Kick out of watching ELO play this song and them having a fire extinguisher as an instrument in Mr. Blue Sky. Thanks Weezer for the Nostalgia and converging one of my favorite bands with my Dads. Miss ya Dad!
I loved it in '77 when ELO did it and now all over again in '19. Yes, I'm old.
We're not old. THEY are too young. There's a difference... XD
I do like the way you think, sir.
ELO released a new version on their channel as well.
I subscribe to theirs as well, goodbye jojo. Thank you for any dialogue.
I hear ya pal

I listened to this song more times than the real one that this song feels like the original
Blasphemy. This is a good cover but I much prefer the original guitar solo.
Hey mcdeeznuts
same
I know Jeff Lynne loved this when he heard it. When doing someone else's music you really have to nail it to do it justice, and that you did Weezer. This is so very impressive.. Great work guys.
I agree.I know Jeff Lynne has to be proud. They nailed the essence of the song, especially the chorus. I love it!
its not impressive this sucks
This one is the best cover since it’s more their style.
"Happy Together", very well done too...
Anthony There is no “best cover”. But I agree this is fantastic!
@@shep7544 i disagree i think youre the best cover
I'm my opinion the best covers (if we only count the ones from Teal) are No Scrubs and Happy Together
2:07 I heard that Black Parade riff in there, sneaky.

SAME
But would it cover Prince's album or Metallica's??
i have some news
I found my 7 year old son singing along to this version today. 😀awesome...

Its nighttime but I feel like I just got summer. Weezer, You outdid yourself again, Like with africa. (just waiting for land down under)

This is such a perfect song for the band to cover
But a hold the line cover would be awesome 😍😄😄
Finally a cover that doesn't destroy the original artist's work! Great work!
This record is wonderful
I agree!!! If by wonderful you mean god awful
I never knew this existed until now. They freaking killed this. Props to yous weezer

Thank you Weezer. These covers are really fantastic. Great music selection too. ELO is one of my favorites.
1977 I was 16 years old driving a beat-up volts wagon convertible only had an AM radio, this song played on the radio several times per day The skies were much bluer n the 70's, don't know why
This song just always feels like the opening to some epic 70's musical.
WEEZER YOU ARE THE BEST ..... thank you for bringing old school music back ....THANK YOU ...👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
All old banger songs need to be brought back the right way.
One of our favorite covers. Comes up to the level of the original.
This is so goooooood. Just sitting here smiling ear to ear 💯

My gawd that is an awesome version, and the amazing "outro" at the end was the icing on the cake even though they did'nt do the "Mr Blue SKy-aye".
its “Please turn me over”
This is a shockingly faithful cover. I wasn't expecting that.
All these covers seem to suggest they have gone over the hill, but honestly, I love every minute of it. And their live shows are greater than ever.
The joy I'm feeling listening to this for the first time.
I was listening to the original one. I didn’t know they made an album of covers 😩❤️🤟🏼
i'm here cause my friend weezered me... :( and outta all the songs , he used my favourite.
my friend weezered in my mouth :(

The vocals are fabulous - very spot on. And you hold pretty well to the spirit of the song.
This cover is just. Perfect.
This is the song I always blast on the beach when the clouds cover the sun and the sky and im looking there sad like why did you have to go.....
YES! This is exactly what you should be doing. I criticized you on other songs for not making the cover your own but you killed this one. Thank you.
As a baby my dad played this to get me to sleep, years later I’m in my room listening to this and other 80’s - 90’s music my dad loves
Day 14 Quarantine, thanks guys, Sunny in Seattle!
Weezer nailed this cover so catchy and amazing!
I listened to this song ( original ) when I was 10 and it changed my life. Out of the blue was the first album of music I wanted to have because I discovered it for myself . To this day I can hear Out of the Blue , it is timeless , a perfectly produced album. Glad to find Weezer picking it for a cover.. Doing it justice ..and most important : with the coda.

Irony: Weezer covering Mr. Blue Sky while the Blue Album is the single best album of their career.
One of my Favorite songs sung by my Favorite Band = Impossible to not Sing along and dance in my Living Room at 3am !! Thanks I needed this !!
Best cover of this song
I absolutely love this song...so glad you covered it!
I love it as much as the OG version! My daughter, on the other hand is a stickler for the classics.
This + coffee + a cigarette + the back patio = my ultimate "Good Morning"
I really like this version.Its nice to see a refreshed version of such a cool song
