I had no freaking idea he was revisiting ELO. I thought he had given up on that after the Zoom album didn't go over that well. That was a good Jeff Lynne solo album, but it didn't really have the ELO sound.

But this... the "strings"... the Beatlesque chords. It's ELO again. I actually got chills listening to it. I was taken back 30 years or more, remembering exactly how it felt to be listening to Waterfall for the first time.

Thanks for making my month.

I love this song. It really sums up my life with music and just about every person's love with music.

I can't wait for the album and tour!!!

I have determined that I am not biased, and it truly is an objectively awesome song. It's like traveling in time to only the really good parts of my life.

Thanks again for calling this project to my attention. November 13th can't get here fast enough.

He must be pushing 70 now?
Do you like The Move also? One of the biggest British bands of the 60s but went nowhere in the US...I wonder why...they did the original "Do Ya" years before ELO redid it.

Might like this...
