I'm glad you're discovering the rock / classic blend of ELO; I've been a fan of theirs since their early days.
FYI, I feel absolutely honored that both of you think this song is so good. That's like the ultimate top honors to get from y'all🏆🏆🏆
It's great seeing these kids discovering ELO. I'm lucky to have seen them in Vancouver.
They will be back in Vancouver this Summer.
One of the great ELO songs. The strings are sublime. And that's ELO's strength.
This was REAL music! We were SO lucky!
Great to see you guys excited by music from my generation. A generation of fantastic creative artists.
I'm so envious, you have so much ELO to hear for the first time.
Love ELO. Their break-out hit in South Africa was "Living Thing" and when I heard it for the first time on the radio, I was hooked. "Tightrope" would be my suggestion for your next reaction.
Same here in Canada (if memory serves). Living Thing was first.
Yes, Livin Thing is definitely another legendary hit song from ELO, then again most of their singles and a few non-singles were definitely hits in my book
It's like watching children discovering sand, or ice cream, or chocolate cake.
lol!
Yes yes yes I feel legendary by being shouted out haha! No but this song is just everything. It's just always gets me going if I'm feeling really sluggish it just has a something to it that just doesn't stop pulsating and the harmonies are just other level! But thank you and I'm glad you liked it ♥️👍✌️
... And there are so many more great songs to come.
I feel privileged to have been entering my teen years and have Jeff Lynne and ELO as the soundtrack of my youth. You DEFINITELY have to react to "Tightrope" one of Jeff's best even though it was never released as a single.
When you paused, I thought: "You ain't heard nothing yet!"
Yes, that double-speed singing usually takes people by surprise the first time.
Btw this is the opening, first song of OOTB. Side one has four songs, side two has five, side three is Concerto For A Rainy Day, which you just did, except for the non-album version of MBS, shame, and side four has four songs. All songs are infinitely brilliant. You have thirteen to go. I may be in a minority, but in my opinion, formed from listening to OOTB regularly for 40 years (= at least 500 times), the entire album, not just CFARD, makes up one long and coherent story, about a male protagonist, feeling "turned to stone", because his loved one has gone, _It's Over_ and yet he refuses to give up. This is the subject of the third song on side 1, _Sweet Talking Woman_ - which also hints back to _Telephone Line_ from the preceding album. A song which to _my_ surprise you haven't done yet: it's typically one of the first ELO songs people react to after MBS. Anyway, in _STW_ the protagonist goes on a world journey, searching for her. He gets to like travelling, but has no luck in finding her, as she escapes him every time. He does learn a lesson or two though. This all makes up the last song of side 1 and most of side 2. You _will_ be surprised and mindblown when you hear the second-to-last song of side 2, _Believe Me Now_ - believe me!
Then of course comes CFARD, and after that, on side 4, love has been restored in the protagonist's life, and all is bliss, but he begins to yearn for the travelling life a bit, fantasizing about being with his new girl in the wild west.
Even if you don't react to the remaining songs ever, do yourself the favour of listening to the entire album, on headphones, uninterrupted and without distractions except for the song lyrics. You can thank me later.
I LOVE your comment ❤️
Turn to Stone was the song that got me hooked on the ELO sound. Playing on the jukebox next to the cafeteria in junior high school. Especially the 1st two choruses. The rock and roll ones. The last two were strings. 7th grade. 78-79 school year. I listened to some earlier songs with my best friend down in his basement. Songs like Can't get it out of my Head, Strange Magic, Mission [ A World Record.] , Telephone Line. But TTS was the song that sent me over the edge where I became an ELO fan 4 life.
The album "Out of the blue" is a masterpiece. I love "concert for a rainy day" BTW The album cover looks great. 70s/80s had the catchiest tunes ever.
Concerto** :)
Livin' thing by ELO is fire.
I’m a new subscriber and love your reactions to ELO from such a young couple. I discovered them just as they made it big in 1975 and it’s great to see young people finding these tracks. There is so much more to discover.
I recommend "Shangri-La" as your next ELO song, You will both love it!
'Hold On Tight', 'Rock 'n' Roll Is King', 'Wild West Hero', 'The Diary of Horace Wimp', 'Calling America', 'Shine A Little Love', are a few others by ELO worth listening to.
I love and would recommend “confusion”, “All Over the World” and “The Diary of Horace Wimp”
An old favourite! Love from Sweden! ❤🙋♀️🎶
One of my favourites guys do across the border at some stage ❤
Marissa, all songs will be your favorite 😀
This is the first song I heard of E.L.O. and then I went out and bought the Album "Out of the Blue."
Electric Light Orchestra: Confusion, Can't Get It Out of My Head, Don't Walk Away, Sweet Talkin' Woman, Calling America, Xanadu (with Olivia Newton - John), Midnight Blue...
This song got me started on the ELO obsession, back in 1977. You guys have just barely scratched the surface of the ELO catalogue of great music. You haven't really hit any of the top ten hits yet.
And they had a multitude of top 40 hits in the 70s and early 80s. Keep reacting, and you do need some good headphones to really appreciate the good music of this band.
Great song. Great write and execution by Jeff Lynns ELO, love the quick phrase run....One of ELO'S most popular songs is "Evil Woman" or "Sweet Talkin’ Woman" or the groovy "Tightrope".
The album Out of The Blue is my 2nd favorite album from ELO… This album shows off Jeff Lynne’s genius… Turned to Stone is one of my favorite songs from this album! I love watching your reactions to some mighty fine music…
You should go with 'Tightrope' next. Amazing intro and quite dark lyrics but definitely one of their greatest. If you want something a little slower but has a haunting hook, you should listen to 'Telephone Line'. Jeff is pleading for more time to speak to his love'. It has many 'bridges' before it hits a stunning chorus. Keep it up guys. x
Nice! Their music does stand the test of time so well. Def consider "Tightrope" and "Living Thing" for the next ones
You should listen to the album 'A New World Record' (1976) from start to finish.
It is just SOOO good! That breakdown where they just have the vocals only super fast bit is amazing! Especially when they did it live! That takes some doing!! A great start to the album!
Love your reaction guys!!!
You’re taking a trip through my life. I grew up in a time of pure pop masterpieces such as those by ABBA and ELO. Others have suggested their best songs and I agree. For sure TELEPHONE LINE and SWEET TALKIN’ WOMAN. You’ll also love exploring THE CARS. The two of you give me hope for a new generation who love melody, harmony and fun fun fun in their music.
Love ELO. Love 'Don't Bring Me Down" , "Turn To Stone", "Livin' Thing", "Sweet Talkin' Woman", "Evil Woman", "Hold On Tight", 'Telephone Line", and also "Calling America" - this one was from 1986, had their vintage '70's sound but wasn't as huge a hit as it should've been. Give it a try.
My “ALL TIME FAVORITE”, ELO song!!!
Yep, this is definitely among ELO's best songs .. But you still have so many more excellent ones to hit before you can decide what your favourites are .. Try their beautiful ballad "Can't Get It Out Of My Head", or other classics like "Do Ya? ", "Telephone Line", and "Rockaria" .. All bangers !
Do ya do ya want my love? Womaaan.
And don't forget "Sweet Talking Woman."
If you enjoy ELO. You both should react to 'Tightrope'.
You may not be an old guy like me - but watching you guys watch this, you clearly know what good music sounds like. Fun to see you guys like this so much. :) Now do "Don't Bring me Down" !
I feel so sorry for you folks that have not had the experience of hearing this for the first time when it was first released...on vinyl.
We would listen to the entire album while mulling over the album cover...often trembling as we flipped the record over to hear the other side for the first time. Then we would listen to it all over again.
Welcome to the music I enjoyed when I was YOUR age (Gen X 1965-1980). We had by far, the best tunes...
I love the fast guitar strumming that you can hear well in the beginning
holy shit its so fucking good, glad someone noticed it
I'm so happy you have discovered 🥰 this classic..during the 70s.. this was sheer class still sounds great today love 💕 yr reaction ❤️🔥🔥👍👍👍
This is DNA of the 70’s, and there will never be music like that again
I got this L P out of the blue when it first came out and drove my wife and next door n mad for weeks , not a bad song on there love it .
Another classic and another great memory.....
Another great reaction, I would suggest getting some top end headphones. Check out "Don't Walk Away"... :Sweet Talking Woman"... "Tightrope" . I have others.
Jeff Lynne pronounced Lin is still touring with ELO, I saw them in Glasgow back in 2018 and they were nothing short of fantastic. Their last album 'From Out Of Nowhere' went to no.1 in the UK album charts in 2019, they had to cancel their 2020 tour due to covid but I believe have another tour planned for 2023.
What are you basing news of a 2023 tour on?
@@Cosmo-Kramer I think I jumped the gun friend, I can't find any conformation of a 2023 tour unfortunately so far anyway. I based it on nothing official simply a friend's comment who happens to be a big ELO fan.
@@robertwest5141 I accept your apology.
But *don't* get me excited like that!
Love ELO since 1975 ! my suggestion for you would be: Night in the city! from ELO.........best wishes from Germany
Great suggestion Mike 👍😊
Thanks, Marissa! Thanks, Tyler! 🪨 #TylerCreatesContent #TurnToStone #ElectricLightOrchestra #ELO
Love ELO. Please review more. Love the way you love their music. Jeff Lynn... Birmingham's very own "What A Mozart!"
There are similar ELO song called Sweet Talking Woman ! I Give you an order to react to Sweet talking woman ELO song, my Name is Alexey ❤
Hi guys. It's great that you looking in to ELO's music history now, I have seen your reaction's on some songs of ELO and they are great. There are many good artists and bands out there and Electric Light Orchestra is one of those great bands that have had many good songs in the charts back in the 70's and also some in the 80's. Please continue checking out their songs, you gonna have a blast doing that, I promise You! My top 5 Elo songs are : Tightrope-76, Shine a little love-79, Prologue/Twilight-81, Shangri-la-76 and Stranger-86. Jeff Lynne's ELO is still going on and doing tour's in US and Europe :) Keep it up. Anders/Norway
Love your reaction video ❤️ 😍
It seems you actually GOT IT. Turn to Stone has some of the best VERSE vocal melody of any song ever. No, not exaggerating. Chorus doesn't do that much for me, but the verses are absolute magic. Now Mr Blue Sky? I don't see how anyone could say it's better than this. Just a very different kind of song. Enjoyable and unlike most anything else you can play, but ELO's catalog contains many that are better.
I love u two guys it’s quite a combo and works really well it reminds of an excited puppy yapping around a cat that’s just chillin awesome stuff
ya know i cant even be mad because its actually true
@@TylerCreatesContent y’all shuddnt be mad it’s a huge compliment I’m the same when I hear tunes that are just bouncin cos of you I looked up some more ELO I just saw a bro do a whole album run-thru my challenge to you is to listen to an entire album called - checks YTube, ELO Time it’s given me people bumps I’m still watching the vid as I write to you gotta check that out it’ll blow Ben n Jerry’s right outta y’all ears it’s truly bouncin
Btw my 3 sisters are the chillin cats our our fam so I guess I prolly have the same effect on em as u would super cwl vid bro luv it luv it luv it
WARNING! I suggest you DON'T listen to Tightrope - you'll probably pass out!!
I saw ELO in concert back in 1980 and then saw Jeff Lynn's band in Chicago a few years back. Both were outstanding and it's especially amazing how Lynn has recreated that sound coming extremely close to the sound of his albums. He is truly one of rock's greatest artists.
Similar to my reaction on first hearing this in 1977, but I didn't have a youtube channel to tell everyone about it.
Where's the next ELO reaction??? Lol I really think you guys should do "Shine A Little Love" for the next reaction, I really think you guys would enjoy that... It's kind of next level ELO to be honest
I've been a ELO fan since the seventies. "Tightrope " next PLEASE. Just saying, fifty years of listening to these guys.
Jeff Lynne. The absolute layered vocal master.
Lynne was born in Birmingham and became interested in music during his youth, being heavily inspired by the Beatles. He began his music career in 1963 as a member of the Andicaps, leaving the group a year later to join the Chads. From 1966 to 1970, Lynne was a founding member and principal songwriter for the Idle Race. In 1970, Lynne accepted Roy Wood's offer to join the Move, with Lynne contributing heavily to the band's last two albums. Later that year, Lynne and Wood disbanded the Move to form the band ELO, which was formed out of Lynne's and Wood's desire to create modern rock and pop songs with classical overtones. Following Wood's departure from ELO in 1972, Lynne assumed sole leadership of the band and wrote, arranged, and produced virtually all of its subsequent records.
During the 1970s and 1980s, ELO released a string of top 10 albums and singles, including the band's most commercially successful album, the double album Out of the Blue (1977). Two ELO albums reached the top of British charts: the disco-inspired Discovery (1979) and the science fiction-themed concept album Time (1981). After ELO's original disbandment in 1986, Lynne released two solo albums: Armchair Theatre (1990) and Long Wave (2012). Additionally, he began producing various artists. In 1988, under the pseudonyms Otis Wilbury and Clayton Wilbury, he co-founded the supergroup Traveling Wilburys with George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison, and Tom Petty. In the 1990s, Lynne co-produced the Beatles' Anthology reunion singles from John Lennon demos, "Free as a Bird" (1995) and "Real Love" (1996). In 2014, Lynne reformed ELO and resumed concert touring under the name "Jeff Lynne's ELO".
Lynne produced all fifteen ELO singles that rose to the Top 10 record charts in the UK. Outside of ELO, Lynne's producing credits include the UK or US Top 10 albums Cloud Nine (Harrison, 1987), Mystery Girl (Orbison, 1989), Full Moon Fever (Petty, 1989), Into the Great Wide Open (Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, 1991), Flaming Pie (Paul McCartney, 1997), and Get Up! (Bryan Adams, 2015). In 2014, Lynne received a star on the Birmingham Walk of Stars, and was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame the following year. He received three Ivor Novello Awards, including the award for Outstanding Services to British Music.[1] In 2017, Lynne was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of ELO,[2] and was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 2020....he NEVER wrote a bad song...❤
What happening ? Well .... He is turning in to stone lol ❤
I am super partial to "Telephone Line" only if I'm in a super duper emotional way ( I have certain sentimental attachment to it) but I stay strong with "Shine A Little Love" and "All Over The World" a little side note** not sure if you know but ELO helped write and perform the soundtrack to the move "Xanadu" including the title track which they performed and recorded with Olivia Newton-John; a little ELO tid bit for y'all :)
Great reaction... but y'all gotta get headphones! Please check out ELO's -> Tightrope, Roll Over Beethoven (long version - 8 1/2 minutes), Sweet Talkin' Woman, Rockaria, So Fine, Evil Woman, Strange Magic, Shine A Little Love and one of the flashmob videos of their -> All Over the World.
Nice reaction, it is a top tier song, I was waiting for your reaction to the part at the bridge where they do the super quick echoed lyrics, I knew you'd freak out. You definately need to add these ELO bangers to your reaction list, Livin' Thing, 10538 Overture, Don't Bring Me Down, Shine a Little Love, Can't Get it Out of My Head, Sweet Talkin' Woman and Jungle.
I''m a little late to this party, but I want to tell you @Tyler, your reaction to 'Turn To Stone' was nearly identical to my reaction when I heard the song for the first time on the radio back in October of 1977. The album wasn't even in stores yet, but the local Los Angeles radio stations were playing songs from 'Out Of The Blue' in advance.
Can't Get It Out Of My Head is a banger as well a bit more mellow but great.
Listen to the live at Wembley version. It's brilliant!
I always describe my love for ELO as this...I discovered them in 1980....I was a sophomore in high school...everyone was listening to Journey....Reo Speedwagon...they just didn't have the huge sound that kept me interested....there are so many layers of excellence in their catalog of music...Jeff always keeps it interesting....ear candy at it's best.....he keeps you wanting more.....that is a true musical genius 🎵😁👌❤️
Jeff Lynne's ELO - Turn to Stone (Live at Wembley Stadium) on UA-cam. This is from the filmed concert. The best versions of each of the ELO songs. Great Crowd energy.
y'all should check out the Wembley Stadium version.
wow! My New FAv Band- ELO!
ELO = pure joy... fact🤟
Jeff Lynne.... The maestro at work. Jeff and Tuomas Holopainen of Nightwish are two of the best ever songwriting composers in my humble opinion. "Tightrope" next... It will blow your minds. Also, have a listen to "Turn to Stone" live from Wembley Stadium London 👍😊
Give Twilight a listen to - start with the Prologue. It's on their Time album.
Hi there kiddos. Grandpa Diego over here. Well, as usual, another one gotten hooked by ELO. No wonder. I'm hooked since 1972. Ok. here is the thing: Three tips: first, use headphones; you loose a lot of colors and textures by not using them; second, have the lyrics at hand; it's not just a delight to listen to Jeff's music but getting what he says at the same time is incredible; his lyrics are as good as his music; and last but not least, a song recomendation; namely a sooo underrated one just because it is a goofy song; iand it is a goofy song indeed, the goofiest song ever; BUT written and performed by Jeff Lynn and it is called Jungle. You both are gonna flip out and laugh to death. Take these as a contribution to the channel. Have a big hug alongside my blessings from Grandpa D.
If this young ones are able to appreciate this... The music have hope!
At the beginning he can do that !
buy some headphones, you will be surprised at what you did not hear
Jeff Lynne, master songsmith and producer. Produced for Tom Petty & Del Shannon and Roy Orbison amongst others (the Travelling Wilberrys link). He also produced Free as a Bird by the Beatles in 1995, a production described by George Martin as a trademark “thick” production by Lynne. I think he meant Lynnes production was very layered and heavy sounding. I love the Eldorado album myself and the superb Diary of Horace Wimp from the Discovery album. Very talented musician who clearly loves his craft.
EJO is my all time favorite band, and I am 58 years old. Jeff Lynn is a unique genius. The Out if the Blue 2 album set is the best 2 album set ever, in my book. NO ONE does or has done what Jeff Lynn did. Thank god we have him in our time in history.
frikkin Jeff Lynne locked himself up in a chalet in Switzerland and wrote 14 songs in 2 weeks, all are on this album. He was 27 years old...
ELO has/had at least 25 great songs to listen to many of which are listed in the comments. I had most of their albums back in the day and would listen to each song over and over with very few "filler" songs especially once they got to their 3rd album.
oh and it's "Jay A Oh" lol...or just Jayson lol
You must hear…"Rockaria"from ELO..ITS CRAZY
Jeff Lynn = GENIUS
Wait until you listen to "Sweet Talkin' Woman" and "Shine a Little Love!" which are both in my top 5 ELO tracks.
Shine a little bit of love on my life play it elo!!!
Again, can't emphasize enough: listen to "Night in the City."
Good album starter track... but in my comment in one of your last reviews - 'Tightrope' is a must, also for a complete change in direction to their sound - go for 'Twilight' full version beginning with the 'Prologue' from the album 'Time' ... both these tracks are album starters! Keep up the good reviews! Andrew.
If you think that was good, look up the Wembley Live Performance, they have improved so, so much, also listen to Telephone line from the same concert
Hey! Love this reaction
As music lovers and students try ELO's ROCKARIA! Which is about an opera singer hooked on Wagner, Beethoven and Verdi who learns to sing rock'n'roll. It's fun!
ELO have so many more where that came from :)) Thanks Jeff Lynne
Listen to it with headphones/ earbuds. You're welcome.
You have to do the Xanadu soundtrack NOWWWW and shine a little love
Hi guys, next reaction use Headphones and in Stereo for us. Grettings from Patagonia Chile... Bye.
ELO have thousand good songs but ... Marissa is just one 😍
