I’m old now, physically disabled in a wheelchair, but my upper body still moves!!! It remembers dancing to this Classic Rock many weekends!!!! So many memories 💗💖💜💗💖💜💗💖💜💗💖💜💗💖💜💗💖💜💗💖💜
I lost the love of my life over 4 years ago. I love this song, but when they get to "but I really want this night to last forever" I tear up every time. Miss you babe.
You’re the best Jamel. I never thought I would find somebody on UA-cam that love music like I do. ELO is my all-time favorite band. I saw them in Columbus and I actually cried through half the concert the music the lyrics the instruments. God bless you for playing ELO!!!
Kathy Stammen : yes! These reaction videos show us that other people react to the same things we loved so much. It’s such a good thing to witness it in others. Specially with Jamel!
Kathy- Yes! I have loved them since first hearing them in elementary school. I waited years to see them in concert and finally did 2 years ago. My eyes might have got a little misty too.
Music like this will never die. It hits that spot deep down in everyone to bust a move even if you can't dance. It's tribal. It's primal. It's WONDERFUL!!
Watching these reactions, I’m realising just how much those of us who grew up in the seventies take this music kinda for granted. It’s our life soundtrack and we’re used to it. When we see Jamal react we remember how incredible it is!❤️
I know I'm late in the game for this song but this is the first time I have ever heard it and it has cemented my lifelong opinion. ELO is the best band EVER!
Highly influential record despite receiving mostly bad reviews at the time. For example, Daft Punk named their record after this record and took the pyramid design of their live show based on the music videos of songs from this album.
@@personalcheeses8073 Funny... I remember bringing the album home on the day it was released. Three songs in, sleeve in hand, I caught up on the joke: very disco. As many artists back then, Jeff Lynne was trying to ride the disco train. But he came a bit late to the party. At the time this album was slashed in the music media and I must confess that I wasn't impressed that much either. After albums like Eldorado, Face The Music, A New World Record and Out Of The Blue it just didn't live up to the standards Jeff Lynne set. It took me quite a few years to really appreciate this album.
Released right after Xanadu, a very heavily disco movie. And Xanadu had a roller skating theme. (I've heard Jeff Lynne say that Xanadu was the biggest mistake he ever made.)
Omg...One of my favs of ELO...loving this ELO ride. Skating still in mind!!!You really need to watch the Wembley concert from a few years ago. You will love it. They always have great live performances always...Jeff Lynn never changes...He does have video from early years without the shades. Lol..He was and is a good looking man.. ✌✌✌💃 💃 💃
One of the greatest disco tracks of all time. Did you know the album it's from, Discovery was so named because the whole album had a disco vibe to it. Hence Very Disco or Discovery. :)
@@Boomslang55 certainly is. Started listening to it again and can't get it outa my head 😁 Jamal, if you read this, the Official Vevo version of Rockaria is the best 👍
Jeff Lynne and ELO compositions have more layers than an onion and even after listening to them, loving them for 45 years I find more each and every time that I listen. Thank you Jeff Lynne and ELO and you Jamel... Your reactions are a joy to witness. Bless you sir 👍😊
A band with 26 Top 40 hits and the main man Jeff Lynne Producer for Tom Petty, George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Travelling Wilburys, The Beatles, Brian Adams, Paul McCarthney and on and on and on its always going to be sensational
Hi Jamel, the break in the middle at 4:50 is Richard Tandy on Synthesizer. On a side note: this song was especially big in Middle and South America back in '79. It's one of the biggest hits of all time in Argentina (# 1 for 14 consecutive weeks) and widely popular there 'till today. Cheers from Germany.
That's what I was trying to think of...."Boogie Nights"! Recognized the bass line and groove! Thanks, Ken! I, too, had never heard this song, and was just transitioning from radio to the record biz in '79/'80 when this came out. But, it peaked at only #39 in early '80 here in the states, so it may not have been a hit in many cities/regions. I guess everyone had to put out at least one pandering disco nod!!! ;- )
What's really hilarious is there's a little bit of the "Mary Tyler Moore Show" theme in the middle. Looks like they ripped off from at least two sources. :)
"This is messed up!!": the moment Jamel wants to GROOVE, but the groin says NO!! We are still enjoying the ride on THE LAST TRAIN TO LONDON, along with Jamel. 💃🕺 This is dance music at it's VERY BEST. 💃🕺💕💕
When you consider the name of the album that this song was on was named "Discovery" or as it was known among a few "Disco Very", it's not surprising that Disco threw up all over it.
This album is called "Discovery" or "Disco-Very" as we called it. :) Love it. Another side of ELO is his great haunting melodies....."Big Wheels" "Waterfall" "One Summer Dream" "Midnight Blue" "Above The Clouds", "Mission" "A Long Time Gone".....so many that didn't get air time. That is the ELO i love the most.
this is another one of those songs that when it comes on at work, either on the work playlist or my own music between 5am and 7am, i have to dance. Like I literally cannot help myself. It's my fave E.L.O song.
I mean, I really want you to react to ELO’s All Over The World, but I can’t see you listening to it without the need to dance! Dare to take the challenge?
I saw Jeff Lynne and ELO a couple of years ago. He STILL sounds the same and he can fill a stadium with a wall of beautiful. He’s an amazing artist that I loved FOREVER!!! Full strings and it was one of the best concerts ever.
Ok, that Is funky! I have never known much of ELO beyond the radio hits! Your reactions are turning me on to music of my generation I never heard before! Thank you for your energy!
Jamel falling in the ELO rabbit hole reminded me just how many songs of theirs I know - it's apparently dozens! I knew this one, but hadn't heard it in a minute.
I've watched several of your posts. This is my favorite, by far. You nailed everything in this one. You couldn't help dancing to this one. Even if you couldn't dance!
I've been obsessed with Time for like, 6 months now 😅 Every morning on my commute to work, I know I've made it on time if 'Rain is Falling' is on. But I'm late anyway, because I stay in the car and finish the song.
I burst out laughing at the "Are you kidding me?" expression on your face! I haven't listened to that song in years, but it's like I last heard it yesterday...what a great song.
I haven't heard this song in a long time!! Great walk down memory lane. Don't for get ELO's song "Showdown". It might take a while to get through all of ELO’s awesomeness, so can listen to these in the in between times: Band: Rare Earth. Songs: I Just Want To Celebrate, (I Know) I’m Losing You. The 11 minute version. (Great organ in this! ) ua-cam.com/video/hINtx2E6y6s/v-deo.html Band: Average White Band Songs: School Boy Crush(you’ll feel that bass!), Work to Do, A Love of Your Own, Cut the Cake(one of the best live songs ever right here) ua-cam.com/video/HNP2L1lnpFE/v-deo.html
I knew this guy that was a serious Metal Head and he looked the part, too. He told me that this was his favorite song. That was shortly before he left us all. He was a really good guy and this is truly a really good song.
Yasssssssss!!!! Let the music play on down the line, tonight, tonight, tonight. I crank up my playlist of ELO I and get my house cleaning done in NO time! Thank you for a great day of reactions Jamel! 🙋👍🌺❤🌼
This is my favorite ELO track, the disco beat is great, but it is the strings, together with the heartwarming lyrics ("But I really want to make this last forever, I really want to be with you") that gets to me most. The best disco music had a loving sould behind it, expressed beautifully by great musical ability. Many thanks for reviewing this Jamal.
Im watching your reactions to ELO and this is the one that I wanted to watch the most, When I started watching I didn't find it and I was gonna request, then it popped up hahaha. All the the Elo's songs you've reacted are great, but this one is my favourite.
As a young kid in the 70s in London this song is so atmospheric; because of what it evokes (for me at least) hot summer nights, London suburbs, Brick buildings, weeds, grassy school playing fields outside 50s school buildings, heat, office workers going home in shirts, ice creams, wearing t-shirt, (short) shorts and sneakers/flip-flops
Ah man my smile is HUGE!! I'm watching this vid over here in the UK and I see a cool looking dude in a Lakers cap in the US lapping up ELO tunes for the first time that I loved so much 35yrs ago at school! My mates proper took the piss out of my music tastes back then so this has really made my day pal - LOVE IT! Good on ya, you made an Englishman smile today ☺️👍
I always liked some disco too. Of course, it's been said that disco did for rock n roll what pantyhose did for petting in the back seat of the family car on date night... :O :) Sorry... just had to say it.
Dave Owens : this is absolute disco. Such a shame that people have learnt to despise this word. As other said, there is evidently good and bad disco, as in everything else. This is a masterpiece.
JAMEL DO YOU REALIZE JEEF LYNNE'S ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA (ELO) IS THE MOST VERSATILE BAND IN POP-ROCK MUSIC HISTORY, THEY CAN DO IT ALL FROM PROGRESSIVE ROCK TO WHATEVER YOU WANT...
LOL "Disco just threw up all OVER this song"... hahahaha!! I think that's the best description I've heard in a long time :) I love disco and ELO, and so happy you reacted to this song and enjoyed it so much!! Hope that injury heals real soon so the dancing can continue! :)
YES YES YES YESSSSSSSS! Listening to this song, I know you can't help moving those size 13 Air Jordans, Jamel-- groin injury or not! 👍👍👍🙌

You were in the presence of greatness Kathy 👍😊

Okay so the quintessential Electric Light Orchestra song is... Hold on tight.
Also the most upbeat song I've ever heard.
Ima go play it.
That song makes me want to roller skate.
One of my favs
That's the song that turned me on to music and ELO as a kid back in 81.
@@peterbreeden2596 I roller skated to that! Same event I went to, we also skated to Styx and Prince. It was a good day.
Great song, but quintessential? Not a “orchestral” instrument in the tune.
I'm 55 and I still LOVE DISCO!!!
For me,music from the 60's and 70's is the best.
So glad you enjoyed this song. 😁
Yes
It is from the album Discovery, which ELO fans call Disco-very.
Very clever. I never clicked on with that in all these years

Boy did it ever, cuz disco was sick!
Yeah, it sure did. I was sorely disappointed when Discovery came out. Jamel can see the disco ball listening to the song.....Aaaaarhg.

This came out after I got out of high school, but ELO was and is one of my favorites. This was a great party song in the clubs on the Panama Canal.
This was playing at the roller rink and at the public pool back in the day.
I'm so glad I was born in 1969 and lived through this good music.
Word brother, I was born the same year. We scored big time as far as music.
@@mwfmtnmanI'm a 1969 baby as well,but I didn't hear ELO until the early 80s.

ELO's "The lights go down" is a smooth fun groove with a hint of reggae. When you have TIME...pun intended. enjoy :)
FINALLY! Those rcok snobs who hate "disco" tunes, too bad. This song is still a classic ELO.
I always liked some disco too. Of course, it's been said that disco did for rock n roll what pantyhose did for petting in the back seat of the family car on date night... :O :) Sorry... just had to say it.
It's not disco. Disco sucks, this doesn't.
@@daveowens9849 Some disco sucks and too much disco sucks, but some is kind of nice, this song is case in point! :)
Dave Owens : this is absolute disco. Such a shame that people have learnt to despise this word. As other said, there is evidently good and bad disco, as in everything else. This is a masterpiece.
@@guydanielclotilde4861 It's not disco.
This is one of my fav ELO songs! It makes me happy seeing you happy and as much dancing as you can!
YESS!! My favorite ELO track! I am so happy right now!

Long time waiting for this reaction..
Well alrighty then. This is going to get stuck in my head. The grand kids will think I'm crazy dancing thru the house. :)
LOL "Disco just threw up all OVER this song"... hahahaha!! I think that's the best description I've heard in a long time :) I love disco and ELO, and so happy you reacted to this song and enjoyed it so much!! Hope that injury heals real soon so the dancing can continue! :)
Thanks for playing ELO and putting smiles on our faces. I hope you feel better soon.
