Fun fact. When Jeff Lynne wrote this he sent the band out to play football. Then he took a drum loop from another song and laid multiple pianos and guitars on them. He made the lyrics up largely on the fly. Once he was ready he called the band back in to record. The sound at the end is the studio door closing. He added that as a poke in the eye to the British music unions who would down instruments whether the song was finished or not. That's why he started recording in Germany.
Jeff Lynne is a musical genius!!!!! Been a fan since the early 70's. Even went to his 1977 New Orleans performance at "The Wharehouse" back then a little hole in the wall iconic music venue! It has since been torn down! Many memories in this girls life!!!!
This is the first ELO song I ever heard, and went out and bought the album at a used-records store. It was the late 80s, and I was discovering Pink Floyd, ELO, ELP, Yes, The Moody Blues, and a ton of other bands that were turning my attention from my own era to the previous decades. I still love a lot of 80s tunes, but I love this stuff also!
Hahahaha. You were rockin' this song just like we were when we heard it for the first time!! The song is about a woman who changed and now thinks she's too good for most guys. "What happened to the girl I use to know? You let your mind out somewhere down the road". Lovin' the ELO reactions!!
Awesome song from ELO! And yes, it does bring happiness to all of us. Thanks for sharing your reaction and it’s a like and thumbs up.😄👍#elo #smile #happy
Belter of a tune. Fabulous heavy drum sound that Jeff achieved by double tracking Bev. Your reactions just always bring a smiile to my face. Youre a breath of fresh air ❤
Great reaction as usual! Mate, there are so many great ELO tracks you haven't done yet! Twilight, Secret Messages, Hold On Tight, Eldorado, Fire On High, Here Is The News... And top of the pile, their magnum opus Concerto For A Rainy Day. ❤
I can’t believe you haven’t heard this yet !!! Whoooo hoooo classic ! Hard to beat this tune for just rocking out and feeling good 👍 ❤❤❤. As always - I enjoy your joy ! 🎉🎉🎉
You’s lying Mr Hector, (mr. Blue sky?) 🤔🤔🤔showdown, next please another cracker from them, enjoy, seeing you’re not going to listen to the masses and do A concerto for a rainy day😭😭😭😭
When we played that song in our band about 1980, one of our guitarists last name was Russ, sounding exactly like that coinage in the chorus. So, he always was the center of attention when we played it, everybody pointing at him as soon as the word came up.
Wow! I didn’t think I would find anyone who’s ADHD that’s crazier than me! Now I have! Lol! You’re very funny! You’re obviously enjoying yourself! This song and Telephone Line are my favourite ELZo songs! Thanks for the great reaction!
Dear Mark!!! This song was very popular, one of the most recognizable hits from the ELO with Mr Blue Sky, All Over the World and Last Train to london, maybe. I think you still do not have an ELO reaction's list? I love your reactions to ELO, my favorite band. I also want to challenge you to react to Fire on High, the creepiest song from the ELO...if you survive you will be a real ELO fan haha. Best regards from Chile!!!!! 🙂
I swear you're the funnest person to watch hearing an awesome tune for the first time!! Smiles for miles man.... "I'm not gonna do it, AWOOHOO" gave me the trifecta laugh....snortcoughfart 🤣
Oh my!!! This brings back memories!! Picture this Hector! I'm 20 y/o, radio has been anouncing ELO, LIVE, AT THE WHAREHOUSE IN NEW ORLEANS!!!!! #1 On their concert tour, diplaying their updated "SPACE SHIP CREATION"!!!!!! I was there!!! Ooppps!!! I took a hit of LSD! Having to walk upstairs to use restroom, I entered, at the threshold of the potties, another dimension & was sitting before some royal judges who convicted me of herecy against the crown! Sentence, death! I was taken to an underground tunnel, where a huge bull was released after I entered & chased me down, at the point of the raging bulls impact I was back in New Orleans when ELO took the stage!!! A flash in time was about an hour!!!! I didn't tell any one about this for 40 years!!!! After all this time & many situations of intervention, their is more out there than the eye can see. People, expand you mind, the Earth is the end & new beginning of lifes exsistence!!!!!!
I came for the Styx Renegade reaction, I stayed for all the things. You're so much fun to hang out with and jam out to amazing tunes. P. S. This is my favorite ELO tune. I can't tell you how happy I was to see your reaction to it.
Yes!! I have suggested this one on a few occasions and I knew you'd love it, Mark. I love it and I was absolutely, 100% jumping around and singing along with you. You simply cannot go wrong with Jeff Lynne and ELO. Please check out While My Guitar Gently Weeps, with Jeff, Tom Petty, Steve Winwood, and Prince among others. So much gold on one stage!
I love when you do ELO! It brings me back to when I was a little girl listening to these records on the record player and dancing around the house with mom. They were always on the radio too. Such a great band! Thanks to reactors like you that keep this great music around! Much love! ✌️❣️
Just love watching your reactions. You are unique among them all. Keep it coming!! The movie Xanadu featured their music exclusively. Gene Kelly's last movie and features Olivia Newton John. Fun movie.
As always Brother... nicely played! The beauty of this one is, it's just solid back beat... all the way through 👍👍 Spread the love and fuck the rest 😉 I don't have ADHD, I just felt like saying that 🐶😎🇺🇸
This song always picks me up at work (lead cook in a busy kitchen). If i can get everyone to do the woohoo with me i know it will be a good shift. Have a good one everyone
This number shows how successful a number can be with just a handful of chords, a consistent, continual but complex beat in the background, but complex piano pounding and simple lyrics makes it an incomparable number. Its also very similar to ABBA in style with basic beat, simple lyrics, complex keyboard work and heavy bass guitar. One of the best combos in any successful music. Jeff Lynne is more than a genius!
Hey bruv. OG brainiac Mujahid here. Charles Bradley "Strictly Reserved For you" will blow your mind as well as Etta James, Etta James "At Last". Ians you know where to go!😂😂
"You're looking cute just like a snake in the grass", when you react to this. Only fault with this reaction: it was too short! No-no nono nono nono no-o! Longer reactions please! :-)
Another genre which might be your cup of tea is Glam Rock. A first artist you might find fun is "The Sweet" with tracks like Blockbuster, Wig Wham Bam, Fox on thd Run, Ballroom Blitz. And Your Love is Like Oxygen
Man, I thoroughly love watching your reactions to songs! It's so infectious that I just can't keep from smiling. I have a Billie Eilish suggestion for you that not a lot of people review - Billie Bossa Nova off the Happier Than Ever LP. There's the lyric video, a live performance for Vevo, and an acoustic version. They're all great. Ooh, and two songs from her first EP - wish you were gay - and Party Favor.
Said it before - loving your stuff mate. Have you tried Barenaked Ladies? Canadian band - you might have heard a snippet from "The Big Bang Theory" theme tune - but it is a great whole complete complex song - and may have heard "One Week"? Crazy mad little song. "If I had $1,000,000" is also a fun way to hear them. Please add to your list if you get the time. BNL - a great band, and more rich and complex that the fun hits that are well known.
I've found that one of life's pleasures is watching Hector just absolutely VIBING to ELO 😊
That's legit!! Every single reaction plasters a smile on my face.
Look up unbridled joy in the dictionary and it says "See Hector React!"
Hahaha brilliant replies. Ditto. He adds amazing value to wonderful songs. ❤❤
Yes me too. He's totally loving my childhood love except he's even more excited than I was & causing me to re-appreciate ELO🤗
Oh Yes!!
Fun fact. When Jeff Lynne wrote this he sent the band out to play football. Then he took a drum loop from another song and laid multiple pianos and guitars on them.

I know a lot of ELO triva but i didnt know that one! cool!

Electric Light Orchestra "Strange Magic" & "Rockaria!"
Rockaria is a MUST!
Mark, you’ve perfected chair dancing! Love ELO 💯🙌🏼🎯👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Who's Mark?
@@Chiari_Queen_T That’s his real first name.
Man, I love the joy you experience to this music. It really is infectious. Thanks for sharing !

Amen
Oh goodness - nice ones ! Have you heard Sultans of swing by a young Dire Straits - fab fab ! ❤️❤️❤️
"It's all about the tunage" is one of my life mottos ❤
Hahahaha. You were rockin' this song just like we were when we heard it for the first time!! The song is about a woman who changed and now thinks she's too good for most guys. "What happened to the girl I use to know? You let your mind out somewhere down the road". Lovin' the ELO reactions!!
just what i needed after a hot day stuck in traffic jams in the U.K ....
Awesome song from ELO! And yes, it does bring happiness to all of us. Thanks for sharing your reaction and it’s a like and thumbs up.😄👍#elo #smile #happy
Belter of a tune. Fabulous heavy drum sound that Jeff achieved by double tracking Bev. Your reactions just always bring a smiile to my face. Youre a breath of fresh air ❤
Your reaction is how this song makes me feel inside. It was so hard not to floor it while driving and blasting this on this tune on the radio.
I wasn't having the best of days, but when I seen you did ELO today I knew you wouldn't bring me down any more. Great reaction as always, thank you 😊
My favorite ELO song.
I love to see your reaction to ELO’s first single “10538 Overture” great reaction as always 😍
Oh yeah, that’s a great idea 👍🏻
@@Tonome803 great great idea!
I predict when you listen to "Mr Blue Sky" you're going to shit yourself !!
Great reaction as usual! Mate, there are so many great ELO tracks you haven't done yet! Twilight, Secret Messages, Hold On Tight, Eldorado, Fire On High, Here Is The News...
And top of the pile, their magnum opus Concerto For A Rainy Day. ❤
I can’t believe you haven’t heard this yet !!! Whoooo hoooo classic ! Hard to beat this tune for just rocking out and feeling good 👍 ❤❤❤. As always - I enjoy your joy ! 🎉🎉🎉
I havent heard any ELO (other than those reacted too) ive been music deprived it would appear!!! You amazing human! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌💙
You’s lying Mr Hector, (mr. Blue sky?) 🤔🤔🤔showdown, next please another cracker from them, enjoy, seeing you’re not going to listen to the masses and do A concerto for a rainy day😭😭😭😭
You may spontaneously humanly combust when you finally discover Mr. Blue Sky
@@brainsqueezereactions High five back at ya ! It’s fun listening to your joy and enthusiasm. As you say - those whom disagree may - ….. off .
I am so glad this was the music of my teenage years!!

The fact I searched to see if you'd already reacted to this to now you only uploading your reaction to it can't be a coincidence😂

Nice fade out lol
Im 61, and its getting to be when i wake up in the morning, all i can do is reach for some brainsqueeze, and ELO to cheer myself up. 🙂
Hector is the remedy!
You got that straight ! 😜

As always Brother... nicely played! The beauty of this one is, it's just solid back beat... all the way through 👍👍 Spread the love and fuck the rest 😉 I don't have ADHD, I just felt like saying that 🐶😎🇺🇸
I thought you might have received the crazy extended version....the video with the dancing girls looking to have the ADHD.
Love you Man. Keep being you. You are awesome !!!
I can never stay still when this song comes on. 🙃
Put On your seatbelt for this MUST HEAR track,, The Romantics "What I Like About You" (Official Music Video A MUST!!)...TRUST ME On this one!!
Hey, Happy 😊 Excellent recommendation - I travel a good bit and have heard that song several times in the past week.
@lynnhoffman247 Thanks,, It's a great song with tons of energy,, Which is EXACTLY why I KNOW he will totally enjoy it.
This song always picks me up at work (lead cook in a busy kitchen). If i can get everyone to do the woohoo with me i know it will be a good shift. Have a good one everyone
You are the best , keep up the high energy .

Hello from Louisiana, USA. I Love this channel!!!!!!
YAY Hector!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️Love ELO, so do my grandchildren!!!😂❤️❤️😂
Another banging reaction Mark. You’ve got to do ‘So Fine’ I know you’ll love it (love the new word - Tuneage😁)
Oh, I'm looking forward to this one.
What a banger!
Hey bruv. OG brainiac Mujahid here. Charles Bradley "Strictly Reserved For you" will blow your mind as well as Etta James, Etta James "At Last". Ians you know where to go!😂😂
Hector+ ELO = Joy., Thank you.
Love it! Thanks for the joy!💜💜
And thank you for the comment!!!
"You're looking cute just like a snake in the grass", when you react to this. Only fault with this reaction: it was too short! No-no nono nono nono no-o! Longer reactions please! :-)
Nobody sounds like ELO!
Absolutely 💯 percent brilliant reaction to an Absolutely brilliant song..
You are f###ing funny 😂😂😂.
Keep up the great work.
I was just going into the Military when this came out. What a great time. And I love how much you enjoyed it!
I loved this song when I was a kid!!❤❤❤
Where you been hiding, dude, and more Zeppelin please.
Cant do zeppelin im afraid, they started blocking my videos (??) So im not wasting effort if they are that greedy for a demonitised channel.
Another genre which might be your cup of tea is Glam Rock.
A first artist you might find fun is "The Sweet" with tracks like Blockbuster, Wig Wham Bam, Fox on thd Run, Ballroom Blitz. And Your Love is Like Oxygen
"Don't bring me down BRUCE"...
You need to listen to The Lights Go Down by ELO,off their Time album from 1981.
Banger nuff said!!!
Man, I thoroughly love watching your reactions to songs! It's so infectious that I just can't keep from smiling.

Great song to energizes your day🧠💗🧠
Thanks for bringing me back to ELO after many years! As a kid I hated The Diary of Horace Wimp - but I love it now. Another vote for Horace!
#hangovergang here for ELO ✌🏽
Next song "Shine Little love" #6 in UK 1979 by ELO! ELO, ELO! I see you from Chile
Great reaction
such a great song
no words great reaction
As I have said before hector you bring enjoyment to my inner soul!Even more when it's elo.See what you think to the whale 🐳a symphony of music.
Amazing you hadn’t gotten here yet! Near the top of my ELO list. If nirvana did electro pop. Brilliant. Welcome back.
It was reported that this was Curt Kobain's favourite song🤷
@@richteezer1 can you not imagine a charged up version of it?
Try 'Do Ya' my friend
Said it before - loving your stuff mate.
Have you tried Barenaked Ladies? Canadian band - you might have heard a snippet from "The Big Bang Theory" theme tune - but it is a great whole complete complex song - and may have heard "One Week"? Crazy mad little song. "If I had $1,000,000" is also a fun way to hear them.
Please add to your list if you get the time.
BNL - a great band, and more rich and complex that the fun hits that are well known.
OMGOMGONGOMGOMG
ITS HAPPENING
This was the very first ELO song to not feature any orchestral instruments
Dont you be bringin me down ! Who put the banana in my tailpipe ! 😜
Deffo a Tune Mike...keep em coming 😂
You my friend are Infectious and I love you for it... E.L.O. and Nightwish the two best bands on Earth in my humble opinion 😁👌😊👍
Mark Hector. YOU ARE my Happy place. Happy. So very very happy.
This song is legit s*x for the ears 😂😂💀
Hey Hector. It would be my guess that you can really carry a tune. When you imitated the high part.... oh woo hoo, you hit every note correctly
You need to give the Cars a play you will love them same era.....😊
Strange Magic next please.
👍❤🤙
Sir Paul once said 'when did i write this'?
