A 1983 song that pays homage to the start of rock in the late 50's. Absolutely brilliant songwriting by Jeff Lynne.
This is one of the most technically advanced, synth-based bands of the 1970's doing a very deliberate homage to the early rock classics of the 1950's.
"Rockaria"--opera and rock merge; "Roll Over Beethoven"--an eight-minute masterpiece; "Turn to Stone"--a song that's iconic 45 years later.
Roll Over Beethoven has 3 different solos in a row that are all amazing. Love that song!
Rockaria is awesome!! Always be a favorite of mine.
Turn to Stone is a powerful track.
ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN!!!!! Best remake ever!
Lord, yes, Rockaria. I can’t wait to see your faces at the end part of that!
Jeff Lynne is a genius
One of Birmingham's best! 👏👏
Jeff Lynne is a genius. I hear every possible genre in this one. ELO is king. Best concert I've ever been to.
You two are the sweetest most positive people I've ever seen on CZcams.
They really are and have become my favorite to watch 💜
Agreed! I finally got my wife on board with their Wedding Singer reaction. She didn't really get the whole "watching people watching something" before. 😄
Check out Asia and BJ reactions. They are just as good and just as sweet!
Please add the original long version of ELOs version of Roll Over Beethoven. Jay would freak out on the piano throughout the song. It's epic!
You just can't go wrong with Jeff Lynne and ELO. His musical genius is impeccable.
Telephone Line
All over The World
This song has such great 50's/60's vibe.
Very Chuck Berry like. ELO has such a great varied library. I hope you keep checking them out. Great reaction. Happy Thanksgiving to all celebrating.🦃🦃
Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️ ❤️ 🇨🇦🇨🇦
HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU!! (Ours in the US is in November.) ENJOY!! 👍😃❣️😃👍
@@teresajarrell452 Thanks Teresa. I appreciate it. Happy Colombus Day.👍✌️🇨🇦
You read my mind; those are the songs I was going to suggest!
Nice! A lot of reactioners avoid 80s era ELO, so it's always nice to see a song from this decade pop up! Don't be afraid of their 80s catalog! It's fantastic, especially their album "Time"! Speaking of "Time", check out "Hold On Tight" from that album, since you liked "Rock N' Roll Is King"!
I love how this tune, like Hold On Tight, harkens back to the 50s. So much fun! Next, you will be delighted by ELO’s Calling America.
Jay & Amber, you'll love their "Livin' Thing"!! (For your 9th ELO song!)
YES
"Livin' Thing" (the studio version from 1976) may very well be one of your ELO favorites!
@@rebeccawyse5562 yes!!!
@@rebeccawyse5562 Not YES, ELO.
I was a senior in highschool when this was topping the charts and it was king! You give Telephone a listen....a great song! Glad you live ELO like so many of us do!!
Being in the Telephony business for almost 40 years I do have a big soft spot for Telephone Line. Even when it came out when I was about 10 before I even had a career.
The piano reminded me of Jerry Lee Lewis and then Chuck Berry on guitar. Great reaction... great group... great song!!! Be blessed!!!
Yes! Jerry Lee Lewis! If you want to hear some rockin' piano! "Great Balls of Fire"! Or just about anything from
"The Killer"!
Your 1600th video!!! Congratulations!! Love this ELO song!! I actually bought this single on vinyl in 1983!! Congrats to Jay & Amber for another milestone!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Chicago suggestions - "If You Leave Me Now", "Baby What A Big Surprise", and "Along Comes a Woman".
WOW! REALLY?!? HARD TO BELIEVE!! I've enjoyed every one!! 👍😃❣️😃👍
My main memory of this song is a pro wrestling tag team called The Rock And Roll Express from the NWA, which is now owned by Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins. Watching them beat the Soviets to win the world tag team championship was a serious excitement peak to this 12 year old cold warrior.
Lmao I was going to say the same thing, the first thing that came to mind was the Rock and Roll Express, I was a huge wrestling fan in the 80s and Ricky and Robert were my favorite tag team! 😁
I was at a house show in Baltimore. Cornette was running down the city getting cheap heat. This song hit and the place exploded. Biggest pop I ever heard. I love Jay and Amber's reviews but I can't help thinking about the R&R Express on this one.
He references old rock n roll songs in this, eg “she rolled over Beethoven and she gave Tchaikovsky back”. Reference to Roll Over Beethoven, a Chuck Berry classic that ELO covered, as did The Beatles.
Aren't they just fabulous? Definitely my my No1 band of all time, EVER.
"Roll Over Beethovan" "Rockaria" "Turn To Stone" and my favourites "Don't Bring Me Down" & "Hold On Tight" There's tons more songs you could choose from but that's enough for now. ❤🔥🎵🎼
The ‘80s,for as much as it’s a decade known for the electronic sound, had a LOT of retro ‘50s-sounding hits, from Billy Joel’s The Longest Time album to the Stray Cats. I spent most of my high school years and some of my college years (before I got into New Wave) listening to the oldies stations in Chicago and Milwaukee.
I even got into a self-imposed challenge of trying to stump the Milwaukee station’s all-request Saturday night DJ by calling in with obscure songs. I finally got him when I asked for the Dion and the Belmonts’ cover of When You Wish Upon a Star-he had never even heard of it before, but I had it on a mixtape. I also got a reaction from him when I requested the Kingston Trio’s MTA. I had told them I was calling from Marquette, so they knew I was a college student, and he just asked me how the HECK I knew the song?! My dad had raised me on his folk music albums, especially the Kingston Trio, which is what I told him. He dedicated the song to Dad, which was really sweet.
Me, in the 80s. We would have been best friends if we'd gone to the same high school. 😎👍 First real job in college was at a record store IN THE 80s because of what I knew solely by listening to the oldies stations and my parents' record collection. Best. Job. Ever. Especially so when working in Memphis. Good times.
The Cramps were the 80s band that really made early Rock n Roll contemporary.
This is what I like to hear ELO is one of those band that just gets you, Jeff Lynne is a multi-talented and yes Jay and Amber he has combine all these genre together and comes up with a fabulous sound hearing to the ears
If you guys haven’t heard Livin’ Thing by ELO you should give it a listen. Lots of other great songs too. 🎸
Jay, he said, "She said, 'Wa-ma-la-ma, ba-ma-la-ma rock 'n' roll is king.'" 😜
In wrestling, one of the greatest teams of all time used this song as their entrance music. I remember living in Louisiana and watching Mid-South Wrestling (Jim Ross just starting out as announcer) and watching the Rock N Roll Express come to the ring with this song helping to hype up the excitement. The perfect entrance music for them.
Facts! Ricky and Robert were 🔥they used the same song in Mid-Atlantic/Crockett for awhile as well. 😁
"Hold on tight to your Dream" you will love this one.
'Prologue / Twilight' from ELO is one of the coolest album openers ever.
I was born in 1991 and I listen to Jim Cornette’s podcasts, he was the manager of the Midnight Express, one of the best heel tag teams in wrestling in the 1980’s. Anyways, this song is one of the songs the Midnight Express’s rival the Rock N’ Roll Express used in the 80’s and a lot of young women loved them. So I’m kind of surprised some older wrestling fans haven’t pointed that out. That might be what this song is best known for.
You are to be commended for this comment. Any reference to James E. Cornette shows an innate brilliance on the part of the one that made it. Thank you.
Pro Wrestling in the 80s was 🔥
A good Chicago Song back from the 70's Wishing you were Here ---- another 1988 Look Away
I forget, Have you done "Hold On Tight" yet? That song has a very similar feel to this one.
Whama Lama Bama Lama Rock and roll is king! ELO has so many hits to choose from. You could do a solid week, 3 videos a day for a week and still not get thru all their great songs. Always appreciate some ELO!
ELO is like a box of chocolates. I live in a rainforest so my fav is and always will be, Mr. Blue Sky lol, but I do love this one too :)
If you like this, try "Hold on Tight". Another rockin' song
Thanks Jay and Amber awesome guys enjoy and bless you guys keep up the great work thanks again for the memories
Chicago’s song Wishing You Were Here, is a classic ya gotta hear. 🔥
My husband was watching their concert on a video today.We love ELO.
Their live in Hyde Park version of Mr. Blue Sky is amazing.
If you want to hear "spacey" ELO check out The Whale off Out of The Blue. Very spacey synth combined with actual whale "songs". Used to play my 8 track copy of Out of the Blue late at night while being outside late at night with my telescope in the seventies. Worked all summer to save up for the thing in 78. Was checking out the Milky way one night while listening to The Whale and a little light went flying through the field of view wjile it was playing. Cosmic.
Amber and Jay, I highly recommend you listen to "All Over The World" by ELO and I also recommend you react to the flash Mob dancing video of this song. This song is upbeat and positive and fun, and the video with everyone dancing just adds to the fun. For a Chicago song I would definitely recommend Chicago with Peter Cetera singing lead vocals. One song you haven't reacted to is "If You Leave Me Now" which is the first song by Chicago with Peter Cetera doing lead vocals and it became a number one hit. It is one of Chicago's best and most beautiful songs.
Plus their "You're the inspiration"
I was totally obsessed with that flash mob video with All Over the World. What in the world could be better. Thank you for mentioning. Love you.
This is real rock n roll. Not many bands left like this AC/DC and The Rolling Stones…and that’s about it. It’s that old time twelve bar blues rhythm that is the template to the sound.
Yep definitely pulling from the past, from the decade that birthed Rock and Roll with a little bit of Rockabilly thrown in. You two definitely need to watch the movie "American Graffiti" and enjoy the early days and culture of Rock and Roll and Hot Rods!
You got to do "Shine A Little Love". Great song that hasn't been o replayed on the radio like all their other songs.
And it was a top 10 song, yet it doesn't get the same respect as some of their other songs that didn't perform as well.
I love that you went straight to fiddle instead of violin 😂😂 but I’m from the south. I definitely got a 50’s vibe from that song. God bless you guys.
Wonderful song!!!! I love ELO!! Try turn to stone and Livin thing!!! ELO IS GREAT!!!
So many good songs but for some reason "Sweet Talkin' Woman" is my favorite. Mr. Blue Sky is great too
Rockabilly rock, that’s the vibe I get from this song 😊
"Hold on Tight" is the one that makes me turn it all the way up.
ALL OVER THE WORLD IS ANOTHER DAMN GOOD ELO SONG...EXCELLENT JOB GUYS PLAYING MUCH ELO BRINGS BACK MANY FOND MEMORIES OF MY YOUTH!!
A Chicago suggestion... You're the inspiration. And yes Amber, it was played as the first dance at many weddings back in the day.
ELO soundtrack to Xanadu is also good 'im alive' & 'xanadu' with the great Olivia Newton John. Roll over betovine, turn to stone
"Beates Forever" is their most sought after track! In the first days of recording "Secret Messages" the song was recorded but thrown out! Beatles Songs were mentioned in it! You shoud chec that out!
All Over The World is another great happy song from ELO
ELO is one of my favourite groups Jeff Lynne came from were I live .brilliant bank music fantastic there album TIME is out of this world...have sung this on karaoke many times.👊👊
Elo had to move with the times and this is so different to their earlier stuff still brilliant ❤ great review guys ❤
I don't know if you've done Love Me Tomorrow by Chicago, but it's an underrated hit. If you haven't done it, Xanadu by ELO w/Olivia Newton John on vocals is incredible too.
A prolific and exceptional band, 80s music simply ROCK!
yeah that's exactly why they're basically the only ones over the decades they have played master unique and remarkable iconic pieces they are everything from rock opera , orchestral rock to electronic rock not even mentioned the voices but there's more you guys have to react on them like if you want to go soft definitely you'll have to react on Telephone Line a legendary and iconic soft electronic ballad and also you guys have to react on Fire On High which by the way the intro is extremely dark but soon right after the whole orchestral side of it takes over and it becomes one of the most creative and stunning master piece that's why their music has traveled over the past five decades
Two great Chicago songs for you to check out are... "Hard Habit To Break" and "If You Leave Me Now" 🎼🎵❤
My favourite ELO track is "Without Someone" from the Balance Of Power album. I still can't believe it wasn't a single.
Oh... Chicago
- "I'm A Man" was one of their very first songs (back when they performed as Chicago Transit Authority)
- "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?" - from their horns era
- "Saturday In The Park" - also from their horns era
- "Beginnings" is SLIGHTLY more mellow, but it's a great "I love you" song
I'd love to hear some more Chicago, too! Hard Habit to Break, Love Me Tomorrow, Stay the Night, If She Would Have Been Faithful, Color My World. Honestly, I've never heard a Chicago song I didn't love, but these are some of my very favorites.
All Over the World is THE one that will make you want to dance. Rockaria is also one you don't want to miss.
ROCKARIA is a must. Please, PLEASE do it when you get a chance.
This was the ring entrance music for the 1980s pro wrestling tag-team known as The Rock and Roll Express.
For Chicago, you must absolutely hit "Take Me Back to Chicago", with the great Chaka Khan doing backup vocals! Also Dialog Parts 1 and 2!
You have to remember that these 70's bands grew up on the 50's Rock N' Roll so they were responsible for changing the sound to bring it up to modern times. This was a great transition song.
Go Ricky and Robert!
I remember it well from the same album as "TWILIGHT" which was was voted as ELO"S best song by the fans, a masterpiece which nobody reacts to, go figure
You guys said you wanted to hear more powerful voices/really really good opera. .......Okay you said that a year ago, but still. You NEED to see Diana Damrau's Queen of the Night (Der Holle Rache) aria. Not only can this woman punch staccato notes right in the face, her vocal gymnastics are amazing. SHE IS NOT MICKED IN THIS VIDEO. To put the icing on the cake, Der Holle Rache is the THE MOST difficult aria for soprano ever written. There are super, high notes as well as those staccato runs (Crisp staccato is insanely hard to do in the first place), but she effortlessly plows right over it. And she can ACT. Like...at the SAME TIME. Opera singers in the past had an ongoing problem, with this song in particular, wherein they would just stand there, mouths hanging open as notes fly out. Technically flawless but.....ye gods. For heaven's sake, the song's title in loosely translated English is "Vengeance from Hell" and it's about murdering someone. Standing still with no expression whatsoever doesn't look or sound even the teensiest bit menacing. But Damrau nails the rage and fury.....uh...actually she nails it a little TOO well...her Crazy Eyes are kinda scary....anyway. You should go and check her out.
Hold On Tight by ELO is a great song.
This was a great ELO choice¡¡¡ yes, makes you wanna dance. Some orhers different but great songs from them are "Telephone Line", "Night in the City" and "Confusion"
This song is the definition of rock and roll this was the first form. Just a slightly upgrade from rockabilly from the 50s. Of course ELO but it's on magic into . You hear this song you just want to do the jitterbug and jive. Always puts a smile on my face
Elo's genius sound. 😎
Yes....ELO!! Have not heard this song since high school... very 50s based. Now for Roll Over Beethoven..
Chicago: "Just You 'n' Me" "Baby What a Big Surprise" "Old Days" "Call on Me" "Beginnings"
Chicago "Colour My World" is a beautiful 70's ballad!
Well, very not bad. Greetings from Russia. 👍
Yes, yes, you've got to hear "Rockaria"!
Great song!! You guys MUST react to SHANGRI-LA !! You will be stunned.
We had all the ELO albums growing up... I sure miss that time period!
I suggest "Calling America" from their last album before they broke up. It's very 1986, but pure ELO.
Love me some ELO! Many moons ago, there was a wrestling tag team known as The Rock And Roll Express and this was their entrance song for a period of time.
Hey !..🙋...
Yep ELO is from my glory days..😄😄😄..coming of age..young adult...
Such a fun band..very versatile in their music...
Please please..🙏...Home Free has a new recording out...
October is anti-bullying month...
💥...Don't Laugh At Me...
Have a wonderful week you two...🌿🌿🌿
ELO you just started your dive into them they are a black hole of amazing talent and songs!!!
Confusion is another good one
This came out in a period of the 70s when there was a big rock n roll throwback fashion, at least . I was just a little kid then and I looooved it lol. I don't really remember if Grease kicked it off or if it was the fact that rock n roll was the childhood sound of young adults and the musicians grew up on it too. At the time I was just too busy boogieing my little legs off 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Always down for some ELO, but "Captain EO" by Michael Jackson is a go. Bars! Chicago suggestions: If This Is Goodbye, Along Comes A Woman, Feeling Stronger Everyday, Old Days, If You Leave Me Now, Hard Habit To Break, Love Me Tomorrow, Look Away, Beginnings, Colour My World, Make Me Smile.
Roy Wood was in ELO before he started Wizzard; their song "Angel Fingers" is alot like this.
saw them live in the late 70's in the old Pontiac (MI) Silverdome.....at the time, ELO consisted of guitar, bass, drums, piano, synth, violin, and 2 cellos...check out their song "Sweet Talkin Woman"
Classic song! And as a wrestling fan of over 40 years, every time I hear that song I think the old-school Tag Team of Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson otherwise known as the rock ‘n’ roll Xpress! Lol!
Back to the music, you need to look up “evil woman“ by this group as well.
Thanks for reacting to ELO again!! They have so many songs!!
Maybe you have to react to Livin' Thing (a complete classic), Telephone Line, Shine a little love (Disco), Confusion, Can't get it out of my head, Fire on High, Wild West Hero, Turn to Stone, Standin' in the rain, Night in the City, Rockaria!, etc
Regards from Chile 🙂
This is the cd I have in my vehicle that I have to listen to every sunny day .
Joan Osborne "Shake Your Hips" Live. A singular live performance.
This song, along with "Hold On Tight (To Your Dreams), was such a departure from everything else they did - but... it was the 80s, and they were joining the trend of bringing 1950s and 60's sounds into their music.
There were quite a few acts in the 80s who tried to bring back sounds from the 1960s like this: The Honeydrippers (Robert Plant's 80s group after Led Zeppelin split up - their "Sea of Love" is a remake of a 1960s original), The Stray Cats ("Try Stray Cat Strut" or "Sexy and 17"), and others that I can't recall right now.
There are no bad Chicago songs, but you may try "Hard Habit To Break". Whichever you choose, you will enjoy it and I will enjoy sharing you reacting to it. That's what this is about. Those of us who love great music, sitting down and sharing it.
4 little diamonds is a banger
Jeff,Richard,Kelly and Bev Bevan were the core members
The lead singer is Jeff Lynde (one of the Traveling Wilburys with George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan)
Willow, Jeff's last name is Lynne not Lynde. The center square from the Hollywood Squares was Paul Lynde.
Thanks for that. I've been hoping for that one for a while. A good start to my day!
always love me some ELO. Some other favorites from their early stuff: Showdown, Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, Can't Get it Out of My Head, Do Ya
Ricky Morton & Robert Gibson, The Rock & Roll Express!!
I have asked several times for a reaction to the movie "Xanadu" which stars Olivia Newton John and features the music of ELO. Maybe you could start by searching CZcams for "Strange Magic & Livin'Thing" ELO (HD). The title doesn't say this is live, but it is.
