![FIRST TIME HEARING LP - Lost On You [Live Session] REACTION](/img/tr.png)
Jeff Lynn a true creative artist! 🎧🎶. A genius
True!!!!!
Pure talent
👍🇬🇧😁
Jeff LYNNE is
India, what I HELLA appreciate about you, is that you totally get the vibe and over all jest of this song. Back in the day, long distance calls were only connected by operators (long distant operator) even though it was a phone company scam, because it costed them no more to place long distant calls than local city and state calls, but they convinced the nation that it was more costly. Point being, he was talking mainly in an imaginary conversation with the lover who never picked up the TELEPHONE LINE , and also to the long distant operator, who he hoped would "let it ring a little longer, longer, longer, as he just sat tight , through the shadows of the night, (willing to) let it ring forever more". Jeff Lynne, often considered the 'fifth BEATLE' because he wrote and sounded so much like them and Lynne also worked with George Harrison (of the Beatles) producing high quality music. He and George Harrison and several others including Tom Petty and Bob Dylan formed a mega group called The Travelling Wilburys. Jeff Lynne was the soul and center and musical genius behind Electric Light Orchestra. The Fifth BEATLE if there ever was one. My opinion of course. ELO has several excellent albums, by the way. All worthy of a listen.
I grew up listening to them on AM radio. I never fully appreciated them until the mid 80's when I heard them through headphones. Outstanding band, just wonderful.
I was barely 18, getting over my first love. We didn't have cell phones back then, I lived in a barracks and the only way to make a call was to go down the hall to the pay phone. And hope the person you were calling was at home. Reaching him was hit or miss, and gradually it was always "miss". I love this song but its always been bittersweet.
This song still gives me the chills. Hits you right in the feels.
Strange magic is another great song by them!
You hit it right on the head. Some people don't know how it was with no answering machines, not texting, no voice mail. Been there, it's soooo heartbreaking when she doesn't answer. And love ELO, had all their albums.
And something far worse, after ringing, and ringing, it is answered, and there you were ready with your rehearsed 'speech' and its her mom/dad answering saying she isn't home,,,
She's over him. She was not going to pick up that phone. If this were happening today, he would be blocked.
TiaLori .........Lol....it’s over..he doesn’t want to let go....but she’s moved on......she never picking up again....I can relate hahaha....nice vocals nice song....ELO legendary......
Sadly, today's cancel culture wants things over IMMEDIATELY-- no second chances-- they think everyone's stalking them these days! ;-)
@@algallego "Cancel culture", "fake news" = buzzwords for the gullible
A G breakups can’t be considered cancel culture. We’ve been avoiding our ex’s and cutting them out of our lives since before the internet
Today it would be all over that Facebook thing!
This is the first song of ELO that I listened... Beautiful melody, they have many classics like Living Thing...
One of ELO's most beautiful songs. Decades ago, this song would make me cry ... and it still can.
You were really feeling it! I understand. This song does it to me too. Ever just wish that person would call or pick up? It's definitely rough.
Great song great reaction your face expressions are amazing you are amazing.
This is one of my favourite songs of all time! It’s so cool to see other people appreciating it!
Living thing, turn to stone, sweet talking woman, and all over the world. Have fun! edit: studio or audio versions...please. Electric Light Orchestra or E..L..O. By the way😉😎
Ohhh man...Yes. Fantastic music 🎵🎶
Gosh... I agree, but Do Ya has to be included for me.
Evil Woman, too. I’d suggest Fire On High, as well, but take in consideration that it’s an instrumental-no lyrics. Awesome tune, nonetheless.
E.L.O are one of the best bands ever. Their back catalogue is simply stunning. Jeff Lynne who is lead vocal and who wrote practically all their songs is a genius. So much to try out. Try "Last Train to London" in addition to everyone else's suggestions.
I’m dying how people are pronouncing it Elo 😂
Keep in mind this was in days before voicemail, missed call alerts, etc. Unless someone had an answering machine connected to their phone you had no way of letting someone know you called if they didn't answer.
They also have a great song called “Twilight” that is less known but I always think of it when I hear the line “I’m living in twilight.”
Livin' Thing. Strange Magic.
YOU LUVVVVVVVVVV THAT JEFF LYNNE VOICE HUH??? :) GIRLS LUV HIS VOCALS INDIA
E.L.O. ALL OVER THE WORLD is The Jam!
And “don’t bring me down!”
and LIVING THING / I'M ALIVE / THE FALL. ;)
NOW REMEMBER WE DIDN'T HAVE CELL PHONE JUST ROTORY DIAL OR PAY PHONE BOOTHS.
Those who can remember start to get old... Most must "imagine"...
LOL No caller ID or answering machines! We literally had to run to answer...and we did! We could never miss a call. I had neighbors on 'party lines' and it was odd to hear them say, "it's not my ring', when their phone would ring.
Hey - I take offense to this. I had touch tone! LOL.
@@neonpark1874 Touch Tone came next
@@tenerifecats6652 Could today's kids handle a party line , it would be a fun conversation to listen in on.
This song reminds me of roller skating in the 70s as a kid. It would be a couples skate. Man i miss those days more now than ever.....
yeah really.. them were the good days.
Orchestra is definitely in this as all of their songs. It’s one reason I would recommend a live version so you can see the full orchestra.
I love your reaction just after 2 1/2 minute mark- where you adjust your legs and yourself in the chair, raise your arms and squint your face. When I see that, I get the feeling you really are getting in tune with a song.
You have to ask yourself...what happened to GREAT lyrics like these? No such thing these days.
nope they are gone just like the true singing and good singers instead of the crap and auto tune music of these days.
“Oh oh telephone line... give me some time... I’m livin’ in twilight” Those words tell me she is long.gone ne’er to return!
Jeff Lynne is one of the best songwriters ever!
This song expresses an experience lots of people may relate to, specially back in the days when there was no cell phones and you had to depend on an operator to connect your call.
I don’t know how old you are but it is so cool to have you react to music that I listened to 40 years ago. Your appreciation for the music is very touching. Plus your expressions crack me up !!!!!!!!!!! Please keep playing music!!! PS the band is E L O not eeeeeeloooooo 🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Thank you!
Thanks for this. Loved your reaction. I was an eight year old again listening to this on my AM radio..
Hahaha AM and FM radio. Lots of work compared to today, but we had the best music. Video killed the radio star😉😂😂
11 here in 76
@@waynestumbo2408 we're getting old Wayne!
@@shrodingerscat4422 got that right
My favorite ELO song and that's saying something! Jeff's voice sounds so great here.
ELO IS LIFE AND JEFF LYNNE IS A MUSICAL GENIUS!!!
"Turn to stone" or "Don't bring me down" are good ones.
To be fair, you could pin a tail on the donkey to pick any of their tracks and any chosen would be fabulous.
That short for the electric light orchestra that's why you're hearing orchestration
Last Train To London by ELO ---The Ultimate disco jam!
YES one of my favs. Great groove!
This song came out when I was 9 years old. I remember the first time I heard it on the radio. I was sitting in the backseat of my brother 65 Nova station wagon while he picked up his girlfriend. Our dad had just passed away at 43 from a heart attack brought on by kidney failure and I was still reeling in sorrow from that. I just sat in the backseat with the car idling trying not to cry so when my brother returned I wouldn’t be seen with tears in my eyes even though this song was wreaking me. Not so much the words, but the melancholy notes and progressions of the music with Jeff Lynn’s voice pleading for a resolve to his breaking heart. To this day I still lose it to that memory of the little boy I once was. Music… Thank God for it…
E.L.O - Don't walk away. Beautiful song ❤
Thank you for listening to ELO, they're a great band, and have many hidden gems that aren't as well known as they should be. One such gem I would recommend listening to is, 'Don't Walk Away', a power ballad from the film Xanadu, which ELO made songs for. You have to listen to it to appreciate, its beyond description.
Hi India, great reaction to this E L O hit, you might want to also indulge in “Can’t Get it Outta My Head”.
I love E.L.O. Jeff Lynne is one if the top musicians and vocalists. You just named my favorite song of all their great ones.
Best music ever👍 I still get goosebumps at 67 years old. Love your reactions. I cry along with you😊🌹
It was silly good when it first played on the radio...years later, its still awesome
SOUNDS LIKE IT'S TIME FOR LIVIN THING LOL :) SAME ALBUM
Oh yeah! Turn to stone and sweet talking woman worth a listen too😉
And "Do Ya"
Thanks!One of my faves by them!Love the way you feel the music!
They sound so much like the Beatles here!!!! John Lennon praised the group, calling them the "sons of the Beatles".
With the greatest respect to the Beatles (second greatest band in history), I find that statement a little condescending seeing as E.L.O. were far superior in many ways. For starters, the Beatles only existed for about eight years whilst E.L.O. were together for at least twice as long. Also, the Beatles evolved from a guitar band in their early years to the genius work of Sergeant Pepper whereas E.L.O. hit the ground running with massive orchestral arrangements as early as their first album. Paradoxically, E.L.O. DEvolved into a pure pop band by the time they got to their later stuff such as Balance of Power (1986). So while a public endorsement from John Lennon is quite an honour, it doesn’t really do service to Jeff, Bev, Richard et al.
Furthermore, Jeff’s post-E.L.O. work puts him in the pantheon of rock gods, having produced masterpieces for Tom Petty, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Joe Walsh, Roy Orbison etc. And he still commands the worldwide respect of everyone in the industry. Jeff has even revived E.L.O. as a touring band with a line-up of excellent session musicians so he’s going strong after more than half a century.
@@kenosull i respect your opinion, i guess ELO must b at the very top of your list, but even tho Beatles are not in the top 10 list of fav bands, i MUST admit that they have influenced more artists than any other group in the history of modern music. It doesn't matter how many years they were active how many records they recorded, they along with Little Richards and The Kraftwerk are responsible for what music sounds like today, or at least how it used to sound when it was played by real musicians. MHO it wont change and i wont argue about it
Please don’t misunderstand me. I’m a HUGE fan of the Beatles. Their music transcends the ages and in 200 years, they will be regarded in the same light as Beethoven and Mozart. I’m just forever annoyed by the condescending notion that John Lennon (may he rest in peace) was effectively patting Jeff Lynne on the head. 😀
@vmaxgr I’m sure John had the highest regard for Jeff (we know for certain that the other three Beatles adored him) so I very much doubt John’s comment was intended to be patronising, much the same as his famous “bigger than Jesus” comment was taken out of context. It’s just the common perception that the Beatles were so far superior and that this perception is widely accepted without debate.
Kinda like Dr. Hooks song "Sylvia's Mother" made in 1972 with the phone theme.
Love that song!! Love Dr. Hook. Love ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRATA
As well as Jim Croce’s “Operator”.
Your reaction is so sweet! ELO is my favorite band :) "Strange Magic" is a classic one - so romantic and dreamy!
Have you done "Turn To Stone" yet? Great song to check out by ELO if you haven't gotten to it.
You almost got it India. He's trying to telephone (using the old fashioned telephone exchange system, which you got!) to try and contact his lost lover whom he's broken up with for whatever reason and just wants to speak with her again but he's being ghosted 1970's style.
Love your reactions to the 'older' stuff. Keep 'em coming.
India; beautiful reaction; truly. This is the music of my youth and you do it real credit. Yes I love Falling Reverse and Slipknot but this brings it all back. Thank you.
This is the right reaction. The song puts smiles on people's faces, but in all honesty, it's just crushing.
Top top band ..Jeff lynn one of the all time greats 👌
A New World Record, a stellar album. To be listened to in it’s entirety. One song flows into the other, telling a story.
My absolute favorite! Good call!
ELO had a string of amazing hits...... that man singing has produced some of the most memorable music of the last 40+ years. And was a Wilbury, too. Strange Magic is super and can’t get it out of my head.....
Really takes me back to listening to my portable radio. It was cool it was a lyric video, after all these years I didn't know all the lyrics.
Songs like this is why you hear your Dad , Papa and other older people say we feel sorry for younger peeps we grew up to all this good music , it seemed like every other month Albums came out and Omg everything was just mesmerizing such great talent , 50 , 60's and 70's so blessed.👍
India, I knew that one would hit your emotions hard.
I was 19 when i bought this record on the first day it was available in 1977. It meant the world to me.
Some guitarists pull the best 'guitar faces'....
India pulls the best 'listening faces'.
ELO was big when I was a preteen and early teen years. They are one of the few things that bring back good memories of that time.
There wasn't a lot to be happy about back then, but ELO got me through.
They were very innovative combining classical orchestral instruments ( violins and cellos ) with electric - hence the name .
Love to watch your reactions I've been a lifelong musician singer so I know a lot of songs and over time they kind of lose their luster like anything like a car or a new toy but when you hear the songs for the first time I remember the first time I heard the song and fell it love with It😊✌ thanks bud
Yes! More ELO. You've only scratched the surface of this amazing band. Mr. Blue Sky, All Over the World, Turn to Stone, Livin' Thing........just pick from their greatest hits or their entire catalog. You can't go wrong.
One of my favorite songs of theirs is So Fine off New World Record.
I remember answering the phone just as I came into the house after a break up with my boyfriend. The crackle sound as he was calling from a phone booth to say sorry. The longest break up was almost two very long two weeks. We were together all through high school (first love for both) and beyond until Hunningtons desease took him from me.
Awesome review and thank you for sparking memories with this song
Love this song.
Jeff takes you on a ride with this one. Harsh. Badass tune. You get it.
ELO is phenomenal
I was lucky enough to see them live back in the day at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium. The best place in the world to see a live show.
Jeff Lynne is a musical legend. ELO was the best and most crowded concert tour before the pandemic. Beautiful music. Today's music does not have any melodies.
ELO is a classic. They have a ton of hits. "Mr. Blue Sky" is another one you might want to hear.
Hi India i love your videos and your sincere appreciation for music.i have loved elo since I was probably 8 or ten and im so glad you love them too they are a truly great band with an awesome body of work.i really wish you would review Don't Walk Away by them.it was in the movie Xanadu.such a beautiful song speaks to the despair of lost love🖤🎶
E.L.O. brought infinite class to 70's rock. That is primarily what they brought to the table. Thanks for a great review, Miss India.
So much emotion in this song! One of my favorites
This song makes me think about my mom, dad, and my other deceased family members. Even after over a decade, I still want to pick up the phone and call. This song always makes me cry. The album ZOOM is a great album from the 90s when Jeff Lynne put E.L.O. back together. Old songs and new ones.
not bad for a "Brumie" from Shard End.
Try "Operator" by Jim Croce or "Sylvia's Mother" by Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show two great telephone songs.
Always been one of my favorite's..
ELO...One of the greatest bands ever!
Can’t beat, ‘I’m not in love’ by ELO for love songs. Guardians of the Galaxy rocked this!.
Ummm... Do you mean 10CC?
E.L.O Initials, not a word. John Lennon was interviewed in the mid-late 70's and was asked what he thought The Beatles would sound like if they were still together. His answer: Electric Light Orchestra.
Have you listened to Strange Magic?
Such a great song
This was always my favorite growing up through the seventies. Thanks so much for sharing.
This one was a tear jerker to me; and you are absolutely right, with the lyrics it makes a huge difference! Thank you and God bless you !!
This was my grandmas favourite ELO song, it reminded her of her husband and would make her cry. He died years ago and she said it was all the things she'd say to him if he'd pick up a phone
Spectacular reaction! I'm living vicariously through your discovering Jeff Lynne, and ELO! 💕
you're the only reactor that discussed how the 2nd verse was so heartbreaking and sad. Very excellent reaction indeed!
One of my all time favorite ELO songs
You made me cry... Thank you.
Ah, the memories this song brought to me, when I was in the service and my girlfriend was 3,000 miles away. Thank you for posting.
Twilight comes when you don't know whether your being ignored or they are out living a life without you and all you have is heart ache and a phone number.
Great song.
I think his word choices and the emotion in the vocals couldn't be better
One of my favorite bands.
Best song is can't get it out of my head the string arrangement is awesome..but no one ever reacts to that song
I don't know how someone isn't in tears after listening to this. It's heartbreakingly beautiful. Just a minor nitpick, it's just each individual letter E.L.O. and not Elo.
Enya - Only Time. Beautiful song.
I never really noticed .... This song is very much like late Beatles music. I also never rally noticed how powerful the lyrics to this are. India ...You reaction is spot on. You helped me appreciate this song more than ever before, thanks India.
The greatest song about longing ever written !!!
I love this song and your reactions Thanks!
India- pleeease react to their song “don’t bring me down.” It a pure funky jam!! ❤️💛💟☮️✌️
That's a good one so is can't get it out of my head by elo
Love this reaction!! This song Really Plucks at the Heart strings!!💔
"Do ya" "Livin thing" "so fine" three of their best songs on the Same album.
Can't get it out of my head is a classic by ELO!
Jeff Lynne quite simply is a musical genius. Loved him from the seventies.
Love your reactions. !
His voice brings me to tears❤
