Nope. We say E-L-O as in the three letters that start each word in Electric Light Orchestra. Love watching you discover songs that are new to you, but I love it even more when the lights go on in your eyes and smile when you rediscover a song you had heard before and are now learning more about it. Stay safe and well, my brother! :o)
@@jamelakajamal Love ya Man! Keep it rolling! You should give a listen to The Scorpions. Still Loving You, Send Me an Angel, and of course their biggest hit in the States, Winds of Change, also No One Like You, Rock You Like a Hurricane, Big City Nights!
Jamel - I think you are starting to get the sense of how what you are doing is so great for all of us especially right now, and it is so appreciated. I have heard a lot of the songs hundreds of times but you have made them seem like new and I can’t thank you enough. I don’t know what you’re going to do for the next 15 years but if you intend to keep doing this it will take you 20 years to get through all of the great music we had.Thanks brother!.
I 100% agree with you. I am re-living songs that I have known for a lifetime with his new energy layered in on top of my own experience, and it is EXACTLY what I need right now. ❤
Absolutely, great comment. At least 20 years. Jeff Lynn is magic. He produced the Beatles Abby road album. Then produced pink Floyds album. Dark side of the moon. And half dozen others. Then became a traveling willburry.
When I was younger, we all hung out at the skating rink on Saturday nights. There was a Moonlight Skate where a boy would ask you to hold hands and skate with him. The disco ball was spinning, very low colored lights and skating slowly holding a boy’s sweaty hand. And it was strange magic. Such fond memories for me!! Thank you for bringing that memory back!
Me too 🙂. God those were magic nights...so much fun. Met one of my best friends, Lou, there. The music was just unbelievable...he could dance on his skates and thereford, so could I with his help and guidance. God I miss him, RIP, and those days 🙏🏻🙂💕
This song is a masterpiece from beginning to end. It's a million emotions rolled into one. You gotta a strange magic Jeff Lynne, you definately have a spell over me. 💝
sounder9393 Actually I can hear some “I Am the Walrus” vibe in the end. And about my husband, we met in a Yahoo Chat room - he from Romania, and I’m from CT, here in the U.S. we met, married in 2003, and after 17 years & 2 boys, we still enjoy a “Strange Magic”!
That album showing says “ the best of ELO”. All of their songs were the best. Not a bad one in the bunch. Not many artists can say that. They are “Magic”
Jeff Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra from The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame site: "Picking up where the Beatles left off, ELO expanded the concept of great melodies, epic song structures and grand orchestrations. ELO added an exciting mix of elements into rock and roll, including disco rhythms and electronic studio wizardry. Imagine a marriage of tuneful, rocking pop songs with instruments from the symphonic realm, and you’ve got the blueprint for what made ELO one of the most popular groups of the 1970s and beyond. Jeff Lynne, ELO’s vocalist, guitarist, songwriter, co-founder, and frontman, conceived of a rarefied musical sphere in which cellos coexisted with guitars, and where classically tinged progressive rock intersected with hook-filled, radio-friendly pop. The result: ELO’s boundary-breaking approach to rock that resonated with a global audience, both as a pop singles act and as album-oriented rockers with deep-track appeal".
As a member of the OG, ELO was one of those bands that created their own style of music. What was great about those days, was there were so many new sounds and styles coming out constantly. ELO is without a doubt one of the great bands of its time.🥰🥰🥰
Personally, I could listen to Jeff Lynne sing all day long, give him the phonebook and you'll end up with a gorgeous melody packed journey of beautiful sounds...one of the masters of smoothness!
@@richg0404 I know, I already sent a link on that to his instagram about a month ago, but I'm sure he has a backload of songs before he can even get to what I've suggested
I grew up listening to bands like ELO I was so bloody lucky. Music was escapism it took you places you’d never been and filled your soul with joy. I wish more new artists performed more inspiring and joyful music.
Yes!!!!!!!! Thank you Jamel!!!!! It makes me so happy when you get into it and enjoy the music that we request. So good. You’d really dig Evil Woman and Turn to Stone. Trust us lol! 🤣👌👌👌
It was in the mid 2000s when I first heard ELO. I was watching a tv show and their song Twilight came on and I just remember my eyes opening wide and thinking "what is this sound?" It was different than anything I could remember! It completely resonated with me and I started looking for more songs of theirs. I got hooked and became a fan ever since! They are my all time favorite band.
As so many others have said, you make hearing these songs like it's the first time again. I've heard this song dozens if not hundreds of times. The freshness of it and your enthusiasm bring me back to my bedroom, my turntable spinning, black lights on, enjoying the auditory journeys ELO can take you on. Thank you sir. Peace & Music.
So glad you’re shining a light on ELO for newer generations. They are the voice of my childhood, the good part of it. Please, though, it’s pronounced as individual letters: E. L. O. Or the full name Electric Light Orchestra
Thankyou for the listening pleasure...you should also check out 'One Summer Dream' off the same album. You will be blown away by the vocals and the melody...
Dang, I’ve been bing watching your E.L.O. reactions and forgot how amazing they were. I was so lucky to have been a teenager in the 70’s. We had some of the best music and the greatest bands!
ELO was my first concert back in 1978 at Madison Square Garden. It was their Turned to Stone tour. Still the best freaking concert I ever saw. The lights were down and all of a sudden this spaceship on the floor of the Garden started lighting up and lazer lights started shooting. All of a sudden, you heard music. The top of the spaceship started to raise and the band rose up out othe ship playing Turned To Stone. Man, what a night.
I was born in 1965 & grew up in the 70's listening to these guys. This will cause me to go on an ELO Binge, again. Thank you for posting these guys, very cool.
Jeff Lynne was asked by Harrison to produce the Wilburys.... he then went on to produce the only Beatles recording after Lennons death. Jeff is musically superb.
what I always liked about ELO is their music has a haunting quality... jeff lynn is pure genius.. Its a pleasure seeing someone enjoy the music I grew up on
One of the things I love about ELO a is how they take a pretty simple beat and chord changes and add so much to it for really great Composition. At the end of the song there must have been 3 or 4 vocal counterpoints. Outstanding stuff!!
Shine a little love is great fast beat song that makes me happy, and starlight with that harmonizing and when they stress "moonglow uh oh" is really great
Yes indeed ! So many hits. I really like " Fools Overture " , but it's not Top 40 beats, and almost 11 minutes long. I'm sure Jamal has heard "Give a Little Bit" and " the Logical song " , but they have so many that would get him "movin"
I am up at 4am listening to you on here, I know these songs and have been listening to ELO since I was a minor and I'm 58 now. They are AMAZING to just dream away with 🎨🔮
i was 14 years old when their out of the blue lp came out and i called in a LA California radio station and won any album of my choice. I chose the 2 album set Out of the Blue by them. I loved them a lot. Thank you 🙏 for all the memories you give to us with bringing us back to listening to great music together. the 70’s had the best of all genres of music. hugs 🤗 💜💜💜💜💜
I would love to hear you react to some songs from their "Time" album, "Ticket To The Moon", "When Time Stood Still", "Another Heart Breaks", "Rain Is Falling", "The Way Life Is Meant To Be", etc.... it is an amazing album all together. At least in the USA, Jeff Lynne is an underrated musical genius.
Time is an amazing album for the quintessential ELO sound and that each song on the album builds on the story .... once you start listening you have to finish to know how it all turns out....
Talk about getting the ladies with ELO, watch them do Telephone Live from Wembley here on UA-cam and you will ask no further what a guys best go to ELO tune was.
I fell for my wife 30 years ago almost as hard as she fell for me. Granted, she was giving blood at the time and I kept her from passing out, but it worked out for both of us. True story.
Your live and appreciation for all these great songs and singers,artists bands and song writers ,loved most of these songs growing up wether I heard them ,or my mom played them can't really same but you are finding them and I'm seeing and feeling them with a whole new light ,awaking memories of the tune keep up the great work just keep being you and doing what you do
These great 70s and 80s band riffed off some of best pop hits of their day but brought something potent and added original twists to the standard Rock and Pop fare....

All the late 60s and 70s music crossed right over into the lives of us 80s teenagers, and was still incredibly popular. Our baby boomer parents had the greatest music ever, but a lot of great music was released back when we were kids, so we enjoyed it with our parents. Baby boomers and Generation X are the most closely linked generations, when it comes to music. Now our own kids, raised on it from us generation x'ers, are the newest fans. Timeless!!
So cool to see young people discovering all the great music of the '70s. Unfortunately for them, they don't have the associated memories. This song takes me right back to the mid '70s, cruising around in my GTO with my buddies, getting high, picking up chicks, grabbing some beer, driving out to a swimming hole and skinny dipping, a little "Afternoon Delight", all the while the radio is playing the soundtrack of our wonder years. I'm comfortably retired now but I still have my vintage '70s stereo system and a good collection of vinyl and a few classic muscle cars and hot rods. These things make me smile and remember the good ol' days but if I had the ability, I'd snap my fingers and go right back to being 19 years old in 1975.
You must listen to Alexandre Zazarashvili who was on season 5 of the voice Ukraine. Once upon a street and we are not alone. They are actually in Georgian. He absolutely does All by myself in English. And had been singing since a small child. He is only 13 now. Absolutely phenomenal!!!!

There are bands and there are bands. ELO are in a different level man.
"Can't Get It Out Of My Head" is one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. The string arrangements in their songs were just amazing.
Yes please!
Agreed!!! It is STUNNING!
Hope he listens to it, love E.L.O
Indeed. I would be horribly disappointed if he stops now with E.L.O. and didn't react to that one...
OMG YES!
Mom: "Where you headed". Me: "Going to Jamel's. A bunch of us are going to listen to music." Mom: "Be back by dinner, and invite Jamel."
rherring i love it! 👍
I'd have a bit of a trek from Ireland but it would be fun. 😁
I wish we really could. Everyone bring their playlists and we go around sharing one by one. That would be fantastic.
@@geoffreyjackson3309 Man, what a great way to spend an evening.

"You're walking meadows in my mind. Making waves across my time." Yes, that was back when people understood what a metaphor was.
🤔 So at what point did we forget what a real metaphor was? Please enlighten me 🤨....
@@stanzaloan3454 Wow. Three year old thread necrophilia. I was referring to the lack of depth in most modern song lyrics.
I love E.L.0. The 70's was a wonder era to be a teen in love.
I know what you mean i wanna go back to the 7 DEEZ
The 70s The best decades by far, so sad never to return to those times
ELO "can't get it out of my head"
At one point on can't get you out of my head I swear Jeff Lynne sounds like Roger waters
Sierra man your right he can be a jerk but he also wrote some of the greatest lyrics in music history.
All Over the World by ELO is mind blowing xx
Yes! And I really like the video with everyone dancing
Believe it or not, I also like "Xanadu."
Yes!!!!!
Should watch the flash crowd stuff. Shard End (Birmingham)!
@@lipby i posted a video clip for all around the world and also the Tube fusion with the orchestra..
then i watched the whole movie LOL
Jeff is a music legend. The most underrated UK music ever.
This song is a masterpiece from beginning to end. It's a million emotions rolled into one. You gotta a strange magic Jeff Lynne, you definately have a spell over me. 💝
Musical craftsmanship Jeff lynn is a genius
Absolutely
"Do Ya" by ELO. Get ready to rock! 😎👍
Love this song. Ace Frehley did a fantastic cover of "Do Ya."
And Roll Over Beethoven
Jeff Lynne is a musical genius! Then and now!
SHINE A LITTLE LOVE and TURN TO STONE are ELO at their best. But yeah... They were nearly Beatle-esque how good they were.
All of the Beatles loved this band. John Lennon called them Beatles Jr.
I'm still waiting for a Beatles 2.0. Paul, Ringo, Eric Clapton, and Jeff Lynne.
Exactly which is why I want to see a traveling wilburys reaction George Harrison and Jeff Lynne can’t go wrong
“Sons of Beatles”
Now, Jamal, the time has come for all of us to do a hangout together & just listen to good music. Please think about doing a live reaction stream.

Oh that’s a great song!!
Yes, especially with Eldorado Overture in front of it!
Yes!!!!
My favorite part has always been the strings ascending and descending the scales behind the chorus.
Yes beautiful 👍😊

Back in the day when ELO would perform in Cleveland, their drummer would stay at my cousin's house. He was their record rep for the midwest.
That is awesome!
bev bevan
I remember growing up in the 70's and hearing ELO.
This is my favorite song from ELO! I like the way you feel it, you can feel the smoothness of the chords and his voice.
If you're going into ELO, you have to do their cover of the true King of Rock n Roll. Chuck Berry's 'Rollover Beethoven'.
Yes he has to do ua-cam.com/video/3uk84icbn78/v-deo.html this one is damn good too ua-cam.com/video/iehhNUr754I/v-deo.html

Travelin Wilburys. Tom Petty, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison and Bob Dylan
Dude is digging Jeff Lynn , right on bro
So glad you’re shining a light on ELO for newer generations. They are the voice of my childhood, the good part of it. Please, though, it’s pronounced as individual letters: E. L. O. Or the full name Electric Light Orchestra
That expression on the first "got a, Strange Magic," is how I felt when I first heard this song, which locked me into ELO fandom.
ELO's Last Train to London, and Roll over Beethoven are a must listen
I second that!!!!!
Can't Get It Out Of My Head and Livin' Thing are two more greats
Check out "Hello It's Me" - Todd Rundgren and "The Air That I Breathe" - The Hollies
Thankyou for the listening pleasure...you should also check out 'One Summer Dream' off the same album. You will be blown away by the vocals and the melody...
E. L. O. !!!

I was just thinking the same thing.
One of my favorites of ELO, it is a very “smart” song. Perfectly written and performed.
Oh yeah that is a great song
Yes yes great story telling
This is a classic..
Add "Do Ya" to the list
love that song. i think it was originally done by lynne's band before ELO.
ryan barker it was Jeff Lynn’s first hit, 70, 71. I used to hear it on the Tony Blackburn show (English radio) when I was a boy.
My favorite off a New World Record. I still think it's their best. They had a great run for years.
@@Boomslang55 They had so many great songs, I think he needs to listen to all of them! 😊
Dang, I’ve been bing watching your E.L.O. reactions and forgot how amazing they were. I was so lucky to have been a teenager in the 70’s. We had some of the best music and the greatest bands!
Love ELO! Saw them live back in 1978 the Out of The Blue Tour here in Canada. Fantastic! Jeff Lynne is a brilliant man! 😎🎼🎶🎵🇨🇦🇨🇦
These songs bring back such great memories of my teens. Thank you! 💜💜💜
ELO 'Showdown' I need say no more. Oh wait, Roy Munson!
ELO was my first concert back in 1978 at Madison Square Garden. It was their Turned to Stone tour. Still the best freaking concert I ever saw.

Been following ELO since the mid 70’s. Saw them live 4 times. First time in 1978. This live is something to hear.
If I could go back in time it be 70s!
ME ALL SO BE a breath of SWEET FRESH AIR,, I felt so ALIVE IN THE 70s
Electric Light Orchestra are the best!!!!

this song is just so beautiful the sound of it just pulls you in
And again try Traveling Wilburys Roy Orbison Jeff Lynne from this group Tom Petty George Harrison and Bob Dylan
Jeff Lynne was asked by Harrison to produce the Wilburys.... he then went on to produce the only Beatles recording after Lennons death. Jeff is musically superb.
Tom Petty by himself will be a DEEP rabbit hole.
One of the best groups to ever be!
Keep up the Roll. Roll over Beethoven
what I always liked about ELO is their music has a haunting quality... jeff lynn is pure genius.. Its a pleasure seeing someone enjoy the music I grew up on
I knew you would know it this brought tears 😢 to my eyes the memories so many with this band .
One of the things I love about ELO a is how they take a pretty simple beat and chord changes and add so much to it for really great Composition. At the end of the song there must have been 3 or 4 vocal counterpoints. Outstanding stuff!!
Yep love listening to such songs over and over to hear the finely arranged chords etc, just brilliant stuff
"Shine a Little love" "Confusion" "Starlight" and obviously "Last train to london" my favorites of them
yes to Starlight
Shine a little love is great fast beat song that makes me happy, and starlight with that harmonizing and when they stress "moonglow uh oh" is really great
Starlight. Perfect little song. So original.
Ah...yes! The Discovery album!
Such a magical group and song! Can’t beat a song that tells a story AND takes you on a journey. 🚀🌙💕
“Can’t Get It Out Of My Head” is another classic ELO
Absolutely brilliant chord changes in this song
E. L. O. each letter is how we say it. 🙂
My favourite band......ever. Jeff Lynne is a genius and his voice is just timeless.
This song is soooo dam smooth.. It puts a strange magic on you..Love your reactions!!..You the best!!
Jeff Lynne’s girlfriend is Camillia Kath, widow of the legendary Terry Kath of Chicago.
When you've exhausted the ELO catalog you should look up Supertramp.
Classic rock is the deepest rabbit hole to fall into. Jamel will spend the rest of his life discovering great stuff.

ELO=STRANGE MAGIC, The best band ever!
Check out Roll Over Beethoven by ELO in concert, they paid homage to Mr Chuck Berry and just added their own vibe.
Absolutely awesome!
The ELO album Eldorado is a concept album that you can just put on headphones on and take a nice long trip to. ELO is mostly Jeff Lynn.
Last Train To London is a great song by ELO and is on their 1979 album Discovery. Don t Bring Me Down is also on that album.

ELO 'A new world record' album, a must hear. "So fine" "living thing" "Above the Clouds" "Do Ya" "Shangri-La".
Mission is also superb 👍😊
Oooh, Shangri-La🤗
ELO was the first concert I ever saw back in '76.
These great 70s and 80s band riffed off some of best pop hits of their day but brought something potent and added original twists to the standard Rock and Pop fare....

This song takes me right back to the mid '70s, cruising around in my GTO with my buddies, getting high, picking up chicks, grabbing some beer, driving out to a swimming hole and skinny dipping, a little "Afternoon Delight", all the while the radio is playing the soundtrack of our wonder years.
I'm comfortably retired now but I still have my vintage '70s stereo system and a good collection of vinyl and a few classic muscle cars and hot rods. These things make me smile and remember the good ol' days but if I had the ability, I'd snap my fingers and go right back to being 19 years old in 1975.

Jeff Lynne once commented that if he didn’t own this orchestra, he wouldn’t be allowed to be in it! He’s in his 70’s and still performing.
This is one of my favorite songs of all time. Good choice.
