My FAV band of ALL time. Shangri-la is awesome too.
ELO fans say " Welcome to our world...enjoy"
The value of an album. A song that never hit the chart becomes a fan favorite. I love this song
This entire album - A New World Record - from 1976 was a mark of excellence. I doubt if there is a musician anywhere who would not tip his hat to it.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Brilliant comment, you take the award for best CZcams comment ever!
This album is amazing front to back!!!!!
I've been to ELO two concerts in April 2016, have recorded this on my camera. The concerts were great!
Loved the review guys one of my favourites songs from the great elo listening to them for 47 years thanks guys ❤
"turn to stone" "livin´ thing" "do ya" "mr blue sky"
AND JUST LIKE SO SO MANYYYYY GREAT BICENTENNIAL ( 76 ) ALBUMS YOU GUYS😊, THIS WAS JUST ANOTHERRRR ONE OF THOSE! AND THIS ALBUM ( A NEW WORLD RECORD ) WAS THE ONE THAT LAUNCHED THEM INTO THE NEXT STRATOSPHERE 👍😊THE WHOLE THING WITH THE HITS : LIVIN THING, TELEPHONE LINE MY FAVORITE WAS RIGHT BEFORE THIS ( FACE THE MUSIC ) : EVIL WOMAN, STRANGE MAGIC 😊ANYWAY STAY WELL AND ENJOYYYY! 💯
Tightrope is a masterpiece. Been a fan since I was a kid in 1977.Superb!!Well done lads!
"Rockaria"--ELO combines rock and opera. An underrated classic.
Want a scary ELO song? Give Fire on High a listen...
The best opening of an Album ever. Next do Fire On High by ELO.
I bought this album when I was a mere 13 years old based on hearing "Telephone Line" and "Living Thing" on the radio BUT, I was no way prepared when I placed the stylus onto the start of the record and was smashed to the floor by this incredible opening track. Jeff Lynne's most underrated track.
ELO and Jeff Lynne are brilliant! You can’t find a bad ELO song! Glad you guys loved it to 👍
"Standing in the rain"from the Album Out of the Blue.My favorite,very dramatic and catchy
yep...in my list of their best tunes...
Yesss! ELO is one of the greatest bands!!
That's the opener to a "A New World Record" now you need to listen to the closer, "Shangri-la" the best outro you'll ever hear. Spine-tingling.
and at its very end richard randy plays "summertime and the living is easy" in the synth. so crazy cool how he fit that there.
Holy shit, this is a masterpiece. That ending with that heavy outro played in minor taken over and resolved by a beautiful piano played in major. Just masterful. Reminds me of the very ending of Beatles - The End.
then you are ready for the simphonic outro in SHANGRILA pay attention to its very end where richard tandy plays "summertime and the living is easy" a few notes in the synth. so crazy cool how he fits that jazz classic there.
I'm 110% an elo fan ,got everything of the master .
Speaking of Tightrope... Leon Russel has a song by that name. Its a hit from the early 70's kinda bluesy/jazzy... Lots to unpack!
It's so cool to see a younger generation discovering - and appreciating - Jeff Lynne and ELO. There's so many great tracks on all of their albums. Enjoy the journey. Great reactions, guys!

I just love watching the joy on your faces while you're listening to music from my generation 🎵🎵❤️❤️
My parents had this album, grew up on ELO, Tightrope is probably my favourite ELO song. Happy you appreciate it too 👍
Your analysis was dead on. Jeff Lynn was an amazing singer songwriter. What greater compliment can you give any artists than say " Their music took me on a journey , and made me feel. You should react to the incredible super band from the 90's that Jeff Lynn was a part of called " The Traveling Wilburys" I say Super band , and I am not joking . The members were George Harrison of the Beatles, Tom Petty,Roy Orbison, Jeff Lynn (ELO) and Bob Dylan.
Wasn't it Jeff that cooked it up with George Harrison?
Have been listening to them since I was a teenager now 68, and they came from the Midlands where I grew up.
You've gotta hear Fire On High!!!
I've said it before .Living Thing live 2018. 70year old Jeff Lynne rocking it.
One of the best albums up there with Boston self titled…need to react to Shangrila. Unbelievable boys…great job btw🤟🏼
Im 59 and a big ELO fan. Thought i knew all their songs. I never heard of this before. Must be a Mandela effect.....
Check out 'Big Wheels' from 'Out of The Blue'. You're welcome.
Proper fuckin music
Watching you from 270, (Irvington). E.L.O. is the shite!
Don't trust anyone who doesn't like E.L.O.!
E.L.O >> Amazing and incredible
I saw ELO in concert in Germany in 1978 and blew my mind. I listen to them every day at home and in my Jeep!😃
One thing about ELO. Most of their albums have and intro and finale or outro. Making the album an experience.
Im sooo excited because I’m seeing them in all places Milwaukee! Whoohoo! Im taking my youngest daughter because at 16 she looooves ELO - who would have thought? Anyway I’m very excited to see them live and the mastermind Jeff Lynne … oh to have that talent in another world - wouldn’t be great if we all could have that? Thanks for your reactions. Very insightful and you seem like a great threesome of mates …. Oh sorry that didn’t come out quite right 😳🤔. Anyway forgive me I’m Australian - possibly nothing comes out right 😮. Live in Canada and can’t wait to see them. Thanks for your reactions - love them 👍❤️
No Jeff Lynne's ELO doesn't have Tour dates yet for 2023. Perhaps you will see a tribute band.
ELO - the funnest band in the history of music
Nice reaction guys. Check out Fire on high, Horace Wimp, Roll over beethoven and Mr. Blue sky to catch a wide range of their music...
This record -- and this track in particular -- changed my life.
Telephone Line from same album is awesome!
"Gangsta's Paradise" .
Sublime, quintessential E.L.O. with more layers than an onion with more revealed with every listen. I've been an avid Jeff Lynne and E.L.O. appreciator since the early 70s. Its a rabbit hole that runs deep. "Tightrope" has arguably the best song intro ever and "Shangri-la" extended version off the same album has arguably the best song outro ever. Please give it a listen. Thank you for a marvellous reaction gents. 👍😊
I always thought they were trying to be another Beatles ......they did a pretty good job !
Saw this live at Radio City in 2016 after listening to it for 40 years. Blew away the audience. Worth the wait!
I'm stoked you guys loved the song--great reaction! And yes, you fellas nailed the lyrical interpretation, nice work. I must say I took a special joy in watching your faces during the track's first minute, when you were each no doubt alternately thinking: "Whoa! What is this??!!", and, "Umm, this doesn't sound like "Don't Bring Me Down"", and, "What have we gotten ourselves into here???", and, "Damn, this sounds amazing!"...............and then that final look of awe turning into relief once the "Electric" part of "Electric Light Orchestra" started! LOLOL Hey guys, thanks!
I don't think ELO ever put out a bad track. Jeff Lynne is a master at his craft.
Even Jeff had a few bad days. But it wasn't until 1986 when 'Balance Of Power' was released that we noticed it.
Take a listen to "Battle Of Maston Moor" and you will change your opinion ;-) (Sorry! Had forgotten that "Battle Of Marston Moor" was written by Roy Wood and not Jeff)
@@avanoosterhout8397 I like the " Balance of power " album.
@@jensbreitenstein9665 was that song a single ?
@@r423sdex No. it was a track on the very first album. They were very experimantal back then. And that song was an experiment that didn't work! czcams.com/video/J0CxTWmv4YU/video.html
One of the Beatles favorite bands. One of the rare artists that all 4 Beatles praised. Thats why Jeff Lynn produced George Harrison and was instrumental in the Beatles Anthology remasters and two new songs.
Greetings from Australia one of my favourites from ELO.
A very George Harrison - like melody. No wonder they got together on Cloud 9 and The Traveling Wilburys.
A New World Record is still one of my all time favorite albums. Do Ya, Livin Thing, So Fine, Telephone Line…all well worth the listen
Constant ear and brain candy!
My emotions ride those strings!
one of my favs from this band...so many moods in a perfectly written song...
Welcome aboard, youngsters! One of my favorite top five bands of all time. I saw ELO at the Hollywood Bowl and it was a magical experience.
I remember when this album was released. It was the must have album. Do yourself a favour, listen to the whole album, especially Rockaria....
I think I wore holes in the groves of this album when it came out ....LOL
Interweaving rock 'n roll and opera, only Jeff man :D
Boy, that would be awesome. This album has several of my favorite ELO songs. And if the guys dug Don't Bring Me Down, they'll probably feel the same way about Do Ya.
@@iangt1171 Rock Aria is unbelievable
Me too.Used to sneak into my older sisters bedroom In 77 and play it to death Anyway I'm still alive so she didn't catch me!Been a fan ever since!
THis whole album is outstanding
It's my favorite ELO song and I love most of them!
One of there best tracks is Wild west hero magic track
I saw them live at Wembley arena London in 1978.
I'm still a big fan they are absolutely brilliant
Ahhh ELO such strange magic. The tight layering of vocals, rock, beatlesque pop and classics. What was not to love? Depression, falling, asking for help, but finding that the answer lies within. Where is the journey taking us next? As always, thanks.
I have so many of their albums! I just love this band! This band was so different when they came out! I used to refer to their music as classical rock!
Come on guys, more reactions to ELO. You guys will love 'Do Ya' and 'Ma Ma Ma Belle' Keep it up!!!
Love this whole album. A local Saturday morning horror movie program in Phoenix, AZ used the intro of "Tightrope" as their theme song.
Jeff Lynne the most underratrg man in music...
Jeff Lynn is underrated???? By whom?
Telephone Line from the same album……”Live at Wembley Stadium” is quite the experience. However the studios release was one of my favorite ELO songs of all time and I own all albums!
Congratulations from South América, Chile 🇨🇱. Electric Light Orchestra, sensational rock band.
The band's frontman Jeff Lynne regarded his own songwriting at this point to have reached a new high.
"The songs started to flow and most of them came quickly to me. To have all those hits, it was just ...I mean amazing really. Going from doing okay for probably three or four years to suddenly being in the big time, it was a strange but great thing." - Jeff Lynne
At the time it felt like a brilliant album and a logical direction of his music until then.
It was only when Out Of The Blue was released that we understood that A New World Record had "only" been a kind of pre-study for what was to follow.
Every time i hear that opening fat synth, in my head I go "mister crowley...."
I got to see Electric Light Orchestra open their live show with this song accompanied by a full orchestra three nights in a row at the Hollywood Bowl in 2016 and it sounded phenomenal! They were my first “favorite band” when I was 13 (“Telephone Line” was the first single I ever bought) so I’m very familiar with their catalog. Some recommendations for the next ELO song you feature:
“Fire On High” (bewarned there’s a long spooky intro before the actual music starts)
“Eldorado”
“10538 Overture”
“In Old England Town”
“Dreaming Of 4000”
Fantastic band. Awesome song. Great reaction. 🌺✌️
Can never go wrong with ANY ELO. They are one of those rare bands that have no bad music. I haven't seen that you guys have reacted to Peter Frampton, Do You Feel Like I Do? Please react to the audio of the live album version and possibly remastered if you can find it.
I know this band must have a bad song. But I still have never heard it. LOL!
Rockaria!, Jungle, The Whale, Wild West Hero, Mr. Blue Sky, Xanadu, Can't Get it Out of my Head are samplings of all different mixes and styles of ELO. Jeff Lynne produced George Harrison's comeback album and Tom Petty's comeback album and was part of the Traveling Wilburys
This song is a tight trip.
I enjoy watching you gents react to songs. I have my favorites, and ELO often tops my list. I hope you continue down this path and explore more ELO. Here are my suggestions.
Showdown, Rockaria,
Concerto for a Rainy Day (Entire side 3 from double album, Out of the Blue), Last Train to London,
All Over the World, Yours Truly 2095, Bluebird.
Keep having fun and thank you!
Guys, try MaMaMa Belle. Again classic rock with a little orchestra. Come on keep on going down this hole. Its soooo deep!
Luv ELO
1st vid today, 14th overall….love ELO! Thanks guys!!!
Great review! "Living Thing" from same ELO album (a new world record). Please.
Every time I watch one of your reactions, I wonder how it's possible you guys only have 11K subscribers. One of the best reaction channels on CZcams. And another great job this time with another amazing ELO song. Keep up the great work. It's really appreciated.
I agree, they are very likable and sincere. I was listening to a comment The other day that Ty made a comment that made me laugh, yet pause to think about what he said. I think it was the Al Stewart Time Passages reaction….he said “who has been hiding this song from me my whole life”? Well that’s pretty profound when you think about it. I had four sons and they are all about you guy’s age and they grew up in the 90s and early 2000s with nothing but my music! They still like it more than the music of their own generation and have such a deep appreciation for the music I exposed them too. But if you three didn’t have a dad who did the same for you, then I can see how you could grow up without ever hearing these great songs. Your Year Of The Cat reaction sucked me in to your channel and to the three of you individually. I would not have any respect for your opinions if you failed to recognize that song as one of the best song in recorded music history. It makes your opinion of anything else carry more weight!
1976 was an incredible year in music! I was only 16/17. Way too young to really appreciate everything that I was listening too!
When they toured this album the set was a spaceship that opened to this song at the beginning.
I always thought this one is one of their best along with telephone line
JEFF PICKED UP WHERE THE BEATLES LEFT OFF.
Try Frank Zappa "Inca Roads". A great story about Alien's. Complex, entertaining, and hilarious. Otherwise.... ELO Tightrope exemplifies the Metaphor that negative thinking perpetuates, and sometimes one needs help. A Life Lessons piece. Chinese philosophy, "Walking the Razors Edge".
Prolouge-Twilight.........by elo is a must............both songs together......amazing
Y'all really got OG Kanye remixed in the intro😂 I dig it
Hello bois….old boomer here. Proud that I was there when all the greats from the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s came out. After that, music died for me. Please play Edge of Seventeen by Stevie Nicks. Hold on! Love your reactions…
and an ELO fan was born
Paul McCartney loves Electric Light Orchestra. That says it all.
GOOD times guys
I thought I knew ELO’s songs pretty well, but I don’t remember this. Good one!
Really looking forward to this one!
The change from night to day is really only hours
It's just along the line, can't you see the sign
Man, you guys gotta do a reaction to another ELO song, they got so many gems! If you want something a bit different then their usual stuff try Calling America on the Balance of Power album. It's a great pop rock song that you could replay million times over and never get bored!
Ya'll should check out The Traveling Wilburies.
And next from ELO, I'll give you another great song, but this time one that's more accessible to the mainstream listener---so accessible that it was a TOP 10 HIT in 5 countries, including the US and UK: "Evil Woman". Studio version, and pick the link that has a duration of 4minutes & 32seconds, and has a photo of the "Face The Music" album cover (an electric chair) as the thumbnail. (Other links chop off part of the song.) "Evil Woman", which came in 1975, is the song that launched ELO into superstardom!
As the one who recommended this song, I want to thank you fellas for making it happen, and I can't wait to see your reaction to it in just a few short hours! "Tightrope", is quintessential ELO, one of my 5 favorite tracks from their entire catalog! It's very different than the first ELO song you reacted to last New Year's Eve, "Don't Bring Me Down". That song, while a banger, lacked the string section (a light orchestra) that defined the band throughout most of its career. So in, "Tightrope", you're going to hear what the band was *really* all about. (By the way, gentlemen, my T-shirt that I won in your Livestream Trivia contest arrived, and it's terrific! I had answered, "Frankenstein", as the first song with a Sax you reacted to.) Thanks again, and Rock On!!!
Great choice. Thanks for putting it up. And their reaction was exactly what it deserves
Agreed, definitely one of their best!
Hi Cosmo!
@@unrulyjulie4382 There she is! lol Hope all's been well. I was glad these guys loved, "Tightrope"! Let's get on them in a couple months to do their 3rd ELO reaction!
ps~My sponsored reaction for, "Can't Get It Out Of My Head", is up over at HarriBest Music Reactions. Unfortunately the studio version got blocked, so I had to give him a live performance. A lot of people were annoyed because the song sounds different without the full orchestra, and Jeff varied his vocal style in the performance compared to the album version. But some people thought it was great, and hey, ya can't please everyone. Lol
Thanks for suggesting this. I bought this album as an excited 13 year old when it was released. I'd heard two singles off it, Rockaria! and Telephone Line. But didn't know anything else. I got home and played it with my Dad listening. During that huge intro, my Dad said "it sounds like a Frankenstein film!" which is funny considering your comment about the t-shirt! And the reaction of the guys describing parts of the song as 'scary'!
This is one of their best tunes along with Telephone Line, Livin’ Thing, Evil Woman,Can’t Get it Out of My Head!
Boring overplayed songs, there are so many other good songs that are not overplayed that are much better.
@@user-rb5il9zo5f When making a comment make another suggestion not just knocking one that you don’t like for a reason.
Please guys play Mr Blue Sky ❤️❤️❤️
