I agree wholeheartedly but I tend to zero in on the years 1974 - 1976! Seems like everything released in that era, across multiple genres, is absolutely GOLDEN!
Got to see these guys back in the 70's, In those days lasers were just brand new, ELO was the first band I saw that used them, bouncing them around the concert hall, and of course there was also "magic" wafting in the air, making the experience even better in my opinion of course, but just being there when they played "that one song" you've been waiting for, and then, Strange Magic starts, and the crowd erupted...wow...what a night! Rock On
Oh my...what a fantastic rabbit hole to go down! ELO has SO many great songs to listen to! Evil Woman, Mr. Blue Sky, Showdown, Tightrope, Telephone Line...OOH- and Fire on High- which is a FANTASTIC instrumental. Orchestral rock at it's finest. Their concerts were a treat to the eyes and ears! Jeff Lynne (the lead singer) is also the guy singing with Tom Petty in the R&R Hall of Fame tribute to George Harrison that Prince also plays on. And if you've listened to Traveling Wilbury's he's one of them members.
Jeff Lynn is absolutely incredible. His Discovery album is my all time favorite but so many decades of beautiful music. Keep diving into ELO. You'll love it!
Some songs have a way of affecting you others don’t. Love seeing you get into it. I agree, it gives you chills up your spine. Thanks for allowing us older folks to live vicariously through your appreciation of the decades we hold dearly!
Saw them at the Hollywood Bowl with a full orchestra, incredible show. Back in the days when MUSICIANS wrote their own songs, played instruments and performed live and showed their talent. Love ya Jayy
I would have loved to go to some of the big shows at Hollywood Bowl back in the day. Legendary place. Grew up next door in Az and always wanted to do a trip but was young enough to be afraid to take such a "big trip". All 375 miles away seemed like a million miles to me back then. Lol
Jeff made wise use of quadrophonic sound, plus he's a great songwriter, guitarist, musical arranger, producer, singer, promoter, and performer. Their catalogue is huge, and worth experiencing. Have a great day.
Ok, Im going to go out on a limb here, and say, I was 22 when this song came out. My husband and I and friend would smoke a doobie and listen to this kind of music, Doobie Brothers, Nights In white Satin, Boston, Stones, Hollies, ok any kid of music was just so awesome! God I miss the 70s!! Don't judge!!
They were so underrated when George Harrison from the Beatles died Jeff Lynne who is the singer of elo sang with some of the best singers in the world like Tom Petty Billy Preston Eric Clapton Prince they did a tribute. Jeff Lynn's voice has so much range and that sound you were mentioning is when they go high and low on the struts of the guitar I have seen a cover band do it and it's crazy amazing. You should do your reaction to some of their other songs also like evil woman it's a living thing. I love your reaction you have the same reaction I have every time I listen to them.
Jeff Lynne is a 20th, and 21st Century Maestro, and genius of musical genres! Long live Electric Light Orchestra, and enjoying Jayy's authentic reaction to their music, well, I believe it will. Going back to the Band's beginnings, the have always been a chosen escape for me, they got me through a lot. Thank you Jayy for sharing and loving!!
I agree James, I love everything ELO has done, but the magic really begins with the album 1975 Eldorado. What makes ELO so unique is they tell a story and takes you along for the ride, you can almost visualize the land called Eldorado.
That was definitely cool to watch your reaction to a masterpiece from the 70's and my childhood! Glad to see the younger generation truly appreciate real music. This stuff is timeless! No autotune, no bad lyrics, no cussing/violence, just pure music perfection!
I love seeing young folks hearing music from back when I was my age. Seeing your face when they start sliding up and down the neck of their violas and violins. Also when the engineer shifts the sound through your head from ear to ear. I'm a fan, you're great and I always feel like I'm listening with my friend. Thank you for the company, I appreciate it.
Oooh, thank you so much for the beautiful teen memories. Of my friend and I setting up the record player in the bathroom, with microphone plugged in, so we could harmonise with ELO. 🥰😎🎼🎶🎵🎤💖
The voice of Jeff Lynne.... So exceptional In concert they are phenomenal.... I grew up with these guys....they never disappoint....Jeff Lynne is pure magic....
Another superb British rock band..incredible back catalogue To enjoy ... Great tracks to check out include, Rockaria ... Can’t get it out of my head .. The diary of horice wimp .. Summer and lightning.. So fine ... Turn to stone ... 🎸😉🇬🇧
Thanks gorgeous! Jeff Lynne, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, the creative force and voice of Electric Light Orchestra, is such an underappreciated composer of the last 60 years. His longevity, diversity and continuing creativity is testament to his genius. His catalog with ELO is epic enough. But his work with The Traveling Wilburys, literally a SUPERGROUP, including Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, George Harrison, and Bob Dylan, further clarifying his versatility and artistic talent. His work behind the scenes as producer include all 15 of the ELO charting singles and with legends like Sir Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Tom Petty, Ringo Starr and Joe Walsh... to name a few. The next EPIC song of his... Fire On High!!!
I'll start by saying I agree with many Jeff Lynne is a genius. Probably did most or all the arranging, producing. I still get chills listening to their music nearly 50 years. Sweet Talking Woman I believe is my favorite. Great choice to react to.
Another brilliant Brit band - so many to hear from the 70’s and 80’s- Lindisfarne - Lady Eleanor,Run for home and Meet me on the corner- - Slade, Thin Lizzy, Then Jericho, Rainbow list just goes on and on
A lot of ELO's stuff has those great aural effects, especially songs like "Evil Woman" from 1975. Their stage shows in the seventies were also really elaborate. They'd usually have the stage assembled to look like a huge UFO that they would come out of. That was kind of a seventies trend, though. Parliament did that, too.
That song is my favorite song it’s my favorite group because it’s got such diversity within the group I actually thought ELO an electric light Orchestra with two different bands because they sound so different from song to song lol Since I was a kid until about three years ago! Lol I love watching your reaction because that’s exactly how I feel!
One of the great bands of the 70's and 80's. Jeff Lynne, lead singer, has a great voice, songwriter and co- founder of the band Electric Light Orchestra. Other songs by ELO that will chill you out are TELEPHONE LINE, SWEET TALKIN' WOMAN and EVIL WOMAN.
I am so lucky to have been born in 1960. So much great music. You were born too late Jayy. But you are being transformed..... and I Love your reactions
A beautiful reaction to a goosebump, chill inducing magical delight that reaches parts that you didn't know you had. That's the magic of Jeff Lynne and E.L.O. Thank you for reacting to a gem among many treasures. Paul 👍😊
They've perfectly captured the feel of goosebumps and that first rush of new love with the orchestration/instruments in this song. It's always blown me away.
Hi Jayy ✋thank you sooooo much I love this song ….. man Jeff if your out there watching flick Jayy I hi -5 , she adores you , everytime time I watch your reactions of Jeff or ELO your always saying come on Jeff lol 😂, I’m sure he’ll adore you like us …. Take care Jayy we love ❤️ you
I don’t know ELO beyond what was played on the radio. First ‘Evil Woman’ then this song which always brings back great memories of 1976. And then ‘Living Thing’ came out. Always on the playlist in my mind with other radio hits like Gary Wright’s ‘Dreamweaver’ and 10cc’s ‘I’m not in Love’.’ What a great year for a kid and his radio.
❤️ you are so cute! Everything you said and felt is how I feel about ELO and Jeff Lynne’s brilliant talent and ability to construct a masterpiece of sound which leaves the listener usually in awe. Your reaction is pretty much emblematic of that. I could suggest so many other ELO songs to you, but, you’re going to be rewarded pretty much any you select because Jeff Lynne is a genius in my opinion. I’ve always found it so interesting that in an interview during the mid to late 70s when ELO were really hitting their stride, in an interview, John Lennon was asked how he thought The Beatles might have evolved and sounded like had they stayed together and he said “ELO” (Electric Light Orchestra). That’s high praise if you ask me, and especially considering John Lennon was notoriously more likely to negatively comment on his own music and other as well (just ask Paul McCartney about that for proof! 😆)
Jayy, you got a JOLT of strange magic from this song! Thanks, sister, for sticking with ELO, they rock! Next from ELO, I suggest you react to either, "Evil Woman", or, "Sweet Talkin' Woman". Your choice, both are fantastic! (Studio/audio versions please.)
Sweet talkin' Woman is a great song. I grew up listening to them. Jeff Lynne did the soundtrack to the movie "XANADU". B side type of movie. Decent flick.
it's so beautiful. It's magic. And sad.
I personally think the most creative period in music was between 1965--to 1985 and I'm glad to have lived and experienced it.
Absolutely agree
Fact
@@hellfoot1 Baby boomers had the BEST music in the history of the world.✌🏽😎🌎
Yeah, now sit back with your cigar & glass of your favourite drink, you smug bastard.... :)
I agree wholeheartedly but I tend to zero in on the years 1974 - 1976! Seems like everything released in that era, across multiple genres, is absolutely GOLDEN!
Jeff Lynne's voice is magic. ELO is so great. They make that sound with violins.
Yep, violin, and I think they use a flange effect on it.
Got to see these guys back in the 70's, In those days lasers were just brand new, ELO was the first band I saw that used them, bouncing them around the concert hall, and of course there was also "magic" wafting in the air, making the experience even better in my opinion of course, but just being there when they played "that one song" you've been waiting for, and then, Strange Magic starts, and the crowd erupted...wow...what a night! Rock On
@@gregorybrown3272 ... and some clever use of balance between the left and right tracks.
One violin and two cellos to be correct
ELO displaying their ability to make the most sublime ethereal music possible.
Oh boy, ELO is AMAZING!
Mr. Blue Sky, Shangri-La, Last Train To London, Evil Woman, Telephone Lines. All awesome.
Nightrider and Waterfall
All over the world, dont bring me down. Also them ❤
Hard to find a bad ELO song. Jeff Lynne was a perfectionist and oversaw the production of everything. This is one of their most beautiful songs.
They always give me chills. One of the best bands I ever saw in concert.
Greeting From South América, End of The World, CHILE🇨🇱.
Electric Light Orchestra Is a amazing Band.
Oh my...what a fantastic rabbit hole to go down! ELO has SO many great songs to listen to! Evil Woman, Mr. Blue Sky, Showdown, Tightrope, Telephone Line...OOH- and Fire on High- which is a FANTASTIC instrumental. Orchestral rock at it's finest.

And if you've listened to Traveling Wilbury's he's one of them members.
I can remember going out buying this album the day it came out. I still have it !!!
Elo concerts were sweet...i saw them 17 x in concert...starting with "on the third day" 1973 through 2018 jeff Lynne's elo
Jeff Lynn is absolutely incredible. His Discovery album is my all time favorite but so many decades of beautiful music. Keep diving into ELO. You'll love it!
Have a listen to his live at bungalow palace set it really shows how good his voice is 👍
What a song to fall in love to. That was me in 1976. Age 17.
This song is such a classic, got to love the 70s never to be replaced
Never, indeed.👊🏼✌
Just the best!
Yes. The '70s must have been the best era in music since Baroque.
So glad I grew up in the 70’s….some the best music ever 🎶🎶🎶
Welcome to the ELO family. You’ve got to do “Mr Blue Sky” next. Put a lovely warm feeling in your heart and a big old smile on your face.
… She’s been reaction to ELO for a long time, including Mr. Blue Sky.
I would go further and do Concerto of a Rainy Day where Mr. Blue Sky is the four and final movement.
Some songs have a way of affecting you others don’t. Love seeing you get into it. I agree, it gives you chills up your spine. Thanks for allowing us older folks to live vicariously through your appreciation of the decades we hold dearly!

Have a great day.
Absolutely. Jeff is one of my favorite singer/musicians ever.
One of the top underrated bands ever!
One of my favorite ELO tracks, in fact tied with "Living Thing" as my favorite. Great instrumentation, vocal harmonies & excellent string work
Congrats, you will never be the same after experiencing ELO
Ok, Im going to go out on a limb here, and say, I was 22 when this song came out. My husband and I and friend would smoke a doobie and listen to this kind of music, Doobie Brothers, Nights In white Satin, Boston, Stones, Hollies, ok any kid of music was just so awesome! God I miss the 70s!! Don't judge!!
The music really embellishes the title of the song. The sounds are like something you would feel after a romantic kiss or embrass. Magical indeed.
They were so underrated when George Harrison from the Beatles died Jeff Lynne who is the singer of elo sang with some of the best singers in the world like Tom Petty Billy Preston Eric Clapton Prince they did a tribute.

I LOVE THIS SONG!! It’s magical. For real though. It’s an oldie. But damn. It’s so darn great.
Been listening to this unbelievably talented band for 50 years and each time STILL makes me feel!
Fairy dust music. 🧚♀️👍❤
ELO are mood music for sure. Everything is fantastic.
OMG...i love this song.
Reminds me of my first kiss from my first girlfriend.
Thank you for the fond memory.
Jeff Lynne is a 20th, and 21st Century Maestro, and genius of musical genres!
Long live Electric Light Orchestra, and enjoying Jayy's authentic reaction to their music, well, I believe it will.
Going back to the Band's beginnings, the have always been a chosen escape for me, they got me through a lot.
Thank you Jayy for sharing and loving!!

One of my favorite songs. Man we had good music back in the 60s and 70s.
I love seeing young folks hearing music from back when I was my age. Seeing your face when they start sliding up and down the neck of their violas and violins. Also when the engineer shifts the sound through your head from ear to ear. I'm a fan, you're great and I always feel like I'm listening with my friend. Thank you for the company, I appreciate it.
Still have that album from my teens. Listened to it about a month ago.
I suggest the following ELO songs: Evil Woman, Sweet Talkin Woman, Living Thing & Hold On Tight
Yes, Evil Woman! And Showdown...the live video for this one is so good.
Or ANY of them
Part of the soundtrack of my youth. A magical. time.
Brother. 👊🏼👍🏻✌
Excellent ELO song!♥️🎼🎵🎶🇨🇦
Oooh, thank you so much for the beautiful teen memories. Of my friend and I setting up the record player in the bathroom, with microphone plugged in, so we could harmonise with ELO. 🥰😎🎼🎶🎵🎤💖
It’s so nice to see someone hear an ELO song for the first time and enjoy it so much
The voice of Jeff Lynne....
So exceptional
In concert they are phenomenal.... I grew up with these guys....they never disappoint....Jeff Lynne is pure magic....
I love me some ELO!! I listen to Mr. Blue Sky everyday 😊🌻

Fire On High!!!
ELO Turn to stone and Evil woman.......you been touching some nostalgic tunes lately......go girl ‼
I love ELO, Jeff Lynn is a wizard, this song is just brilliant, takes me back to good times..
Good song, but they recorded so many better ones!
I'll start by saying I agree with many Jeff Lynne is a genius. Probably did most or all the arranging, producing. I still get chills listening to their music nearly 50 years. Sweet Talking Woman I believe is my favorite. Great choice to react to.
JL is right up there with Brian Wilson as a musical genius. IMO
I'm glad you are appreciating ELO. Perfect music for headphones.
Another brilliant Brit band - so many to hear from the 70’s and 80’s- Lindisfarne - Lady Eleanor,Run for home and Meet me on the corner- - Slade, Thin Lizzy, Then Jericho, Rainbow list just goes on and on
This song represents the 70's. Magic!😊
A lot of ELO's stuff has those great aural effects, especially songs like "Evil Woman" from 1975. Their stage shows in the seventies were also really elaborate. They'd usually have the stage assembled to look like a huge UFO that they would come out of. That was kind of a seventies trend, though. Parliament did that, too.
The problem with their concerts back then was the technology wasn't good enough for them to sound anywhere near a good as their studio work.
"Roll Over Beethoven" really shows off their skill at blending classical, rock and honky tonk vocals
Jeff Lynne music was made for headphones. Glad you appreciate the music of my time.
Right on. Listening to ELO through headphones is eargasmic.
ELO is simply amazing. Keep on with the ELO reactions. You cant go wrong. 😊
Please check out ELO singing "Big Wheels." It's one of the most underrated song ever.
Those goosebumps are Jeff Lynn Baby Girl!
So much fun! ELO is so underrated, Electric Light Orchestra the name says it all. Evil Woman!
us older folks grew up with elo so know the music , congrats on finding a great band from england.
Pure Genius. Goose Bumps
It's been ages since I have listened to this song through (handy dandy) headphones. Thanks for reminding me of just how incredible this is.
So many legendary tune by Electric Light Orchestra!
That song is my favorite song it’s my favorite group because it’s got such diversity within the group I actually thought ELO an electric light Orchestra with two different bands because they sound so different from song to song lol Since I was a kid until about three years ago! Lol

Jeff Lynn & ELO are top of the music food chain.
I love E.L.O. you are in for quite the ride. Orchestral rock!! So fricken awesome
Strange magic has a unigue sound to it for sure. Kind of a sweet melancholy song.
You are going to love the ELO rabbit hole.....so much great music.
Wonderful song and a wonderful reaction. Thank you.
Roll Over Beethoven, Diary of Horace Wimp, Discovery, Confusion, Twilight are just a few of my favourites. There are many others I love too
Anything by ELO is good music!!
Loved you're reaction to Strange Magic, I feel the same way. You owe it to yourself to hear more from this incredible group.
I am so lucky to have been born in 1960. So much great music. You were born too late Jayy. But you are being transformed..... and I Love your reactions
Those chills you get are the universal connection that music can deliver! Glad you felt it!
They were an amazing band!
Love Jeff Lynnes voice. My first ask: Turn of the Century by YES. Believe you will go mad.
ELO is definitely a vibe! Love their stuff. So original🎸
A beautiful reaction to a goosebump, chill inducing magical delight that reaches parts that you didn't know you had. That's the magic of Jeff Lynne and E.L.O. Thank you for reacting to a gem among many treasures. Paul 👍😊

Love elo ,fantastic band.
Concerto for a rainy day about 5 songs long EPIC👍👍👍
Love, love, love, ELO! I got to see them live, and they still sound amazing! You are a beautiful, old soul Jayy.
Jayy, you got a JOLT of strange magic from this song!
Thanks, sister, for sticking with ELO, they rock!
Next from ELO, I suggest you react to either, "Evil Woman", or, "Sweet Talkin' Woman". Your choice, both are fantastic! (Studio/audio versions please.)
ELO is amazing! Great reaction! One of my favorite songs by them is Turn to Stone.
💪🏼👊🏼👍🏻 Rock on Bro!! My go to jam from E.L.O.
From "Face The Music" album which is brilliant.....then they all were.
ELO really do create musical masterpieces. And layer on top of that Jeff Lynne's beautiful vocals and you have the golden recipe for success.
Seen them back in the day, love that song!
ELO are magic - full stop!
Oh yeah girl!! ❣️❤️.... They have an awesome sound!!
Again, you get me excited again hearing this song!
Sweet talkin' Woman is a great song. I grew up listening to them. Jeff Lynne did the soundtrack to the movie "XANADU". B side type of movie. Decent flick.
ELO is pure magic. never want it to end
Just loved how you described how this song gave you chills.There will be more as you hear more of E L O.😂
you have the right heart for a journey back to the 70s. Kudos.
I saw them in MSG Nyc when they toured for this album. Best concert i have ever been to
Sis you’re feeling this song the way I did when I first heard it, I unapologetically played it three times in row
ELO puts you in a trance. Its like taking a music journey somewhere
