"Hello, how are you?
Have you been alright through all those lonely,
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely nights?"
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything
If you pick up that telephone, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hey, How you feelin'?
Are you still the same, don't you realize the things we did,
We did were all for real, not a dream.
I just can't believe they've all faded out of view, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oo.
Doo da wop, doo bee doo da wop, do wah doo lang.
Blue days, black nights, doo wah doo lang.
I look into the sky, the love you need ain't gonna see you through,
And I wonder why, the little things you planned ain't comin' true.
Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight.
Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight. :laughing:

I was a big fan as a kid in the '70s/early '80s, my 1st record I ever bought was a 3 record LP box set Three Light Years, wore it out playing it so much
Really enjoyed seeing Jeff Lynne and Richard Tandy and band in Hyde Park last year, great night, they haven't lost it, sounded superb

My brothers had all the ELO early stuff. But for some sad reason I have been listening to the Time album first since it came out in 1981 and I have honestly never got bored of it. “The way life's meant to be” song describes modern life……..

just saw Pink Floyd underneath for £20. Paid £7.99 yesterday for that!
Monday
Late again today
He'd be in trouble though he'd say he was sorry
He'd have to hurry out to the bus
Tuesday
Horace was so sad
He'd never had a girl that he could care for
And if he was late once more, he'd be out
Don't be afraid, just knock on the door
Well, he just stood there mumblin' and fumblin'
Then a voice from above said
"Horace Wimp, this is your life
Go out and find yourself a wife
Make a stand and be a man
And you will have a great life plan"
Wednesday
Horace met a girl
She was small and she was very pretty
He thought he was in love, he was afraid
Thursday
Asks her for a date
The cafe down the street tomorrow evening
His head was reeling when she said, "Yes, okay"
Don't be afraid, just knock on the door
Well, he just stood there mumblin' and fumblin'
Then a voice from above said
"Horace Wimp, this is your life
Go out and find yourself a wife
Make a stand and be a man
And you will have a great life plan"
Friday
Horace, this is it
He asks the girl if maybe they could marry
When she says, "Gladly" Horace cries for her
Sunday
Everybody's at the church
When Horace rushes in and says
"Now here come my wife for the rest of my life" and she did
Don't be afraid, just knock on the door
Well, he just stood there mumblin' and fumblin'
Then a voice from above said
"Horace Wimp, this is your wife
Go out and find yourself a life
Make a stand and be a man
And you will have a great life plan"

Bought lots of vinyl back in the day. And although my all-time favourite 7" fluctuates according to mood, my favourite album has always been Out of the Blue. Can still see the album cover, inner lyrics listing, hell... I can ever smell the bloody thing! HEAT.

Yes Strangely I Liked All Their Harvest Albums & Out of The Blue Was A Landmark Album For ELO
You Just Need To See How Many Singles Were Hits From It... Absolute Stunning Classic. :innocent:
When the day is done and there's nowhere to run
And the people of the city have all lost and won
In your city dress you stand and stare
And you smoke another cigarette and comb your hair
And the light that shines
Paints a trace of sadness
On the street I wait
But I can't seem to get to you.
Well, you start to sway, check your Cartier
'Cos it's getting late, you can't afford to wait
So you move along where it's going on
And the people of the night are playing 'till the dawn
And the sun that shines
Paints a trace of sadness
In your eyes that cry
Wishing and hoping
Oh...
[Chorus:]
Sweet, sweet is the night
Now you are near
Dark, dark were the days
They disappear
Sweet, sweet is the night
Now you are near.

Yes Jeff Lynne & Not Forgetting Royston Wood Absolute Genius !!
It was 9-29, 9-29 back street big city.
The sun was going down, there was music all around
It felt so right.
It was one of those nights, one of those nights when
you feel the world stop turnin', you were standing
There, there was music in the air. I should have been
Away, but I knew I'd have to stay.
Last train to London, just headin' out,
Last train to London, just leavin' town.
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you,
Let the music play on down the line tonight.
It was one of those nights, one of those nights when
you feel the fire is burnin', everybody was there,
everybody to share
It felt so right.

I was waitin' for the operator on the line.
SHE'S GONE SO LONG What can I do?
WHERE COULD SHE BE? No no no,
don't know what I'm gonna do,
I gotta get back to you.
You gotta slow down SLOW DOWN sweet talkin' woman SLOW DOWN
You got me runnin' RUN RUN you got me searchin'.

Thank You
You're sailing softly through the sun
in a broken stone age dawn.
You fly so high.
I get a strange magic,
oh, what a strange magic,
oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
got a strange magic.
You're walking meadows in my mind,
making waves across my time,
oh no, oh no.
I get a strange magic,

oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,

Every dream in her heart was gone
Headin' for a Showdown

There's gonna be a Showdown

Have you been alright through all those lonely,
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely nights?"
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything
If you pick up that telephone, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hey, How you feelin'?
Are you still the same, don't you realize the things we did,
We did were all for real, not a dream.
I just can't believe they've all faded out of view, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oo.
Doo da wop, doo bee doo da wop, do wah doo lang.
Blue days, black nights, doo wah doo lang.
I look into the sky, the love you need ain't gonna see you through,
And I wonder why, the little things you planned ain't comin' true.
Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight.
Oh, oh, telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight. :laughing:

The city streets are empty now THE LIGHTS DON'T SHINE NO MORE
and so the songs are way down low TURNING TURNING TURNING
A sound that flows into my mind THE ECHOES OF THE DAYLIGHT
of everything that is alive IN MY BLUE WORLD
Really enjoyed seeing Jeff Lynne and Richard Tandy and band in Hyde Park last year, great night, they haven't lost it, sounded superb
Got Shangri la as my departing funeral song... kids have told me no way dad...I said I'll be listening!!
Also a fan since the later Move days..circa 1970.
Hope I can get tickets for his tour next year!!

'In 1976 I saw ELO at the Birmingham NEC. I was there shouting with everyone else – “come back on, ELO, and carry on playing'"
EDIT: damn it, smidav beat me to it :disappointed:

Jeff Lynne's ELO Presale
And how about a bit of love for:-
Monday
Late again today
He'd be in trouble though he'd say he was sorry
He'd have to hurry out to the bus
Tuesday
Horace was so sad
He'd never had a girl that he could care for
And if he was late once more, he'd be out
Don't be afraid, just knock on the door
Well, he just stood there mumblin' and fumblin'
Then a voice from above said
"Horace Wimp, this is your life
Go out and find yourself a wife
Make a stand and be a man
And you will have a great life plan"
Wednesday
Horace met a girl
She was small and she was very pretty
He thought he was in love, he was afraid
Thursday
Asks her for a date
The cafe down the street tomorrow evening
His head was reeling when she said, "Yes, okay"
Don't be afraid, just knock on the door
Well, he just stood there mumblin' and fumblin'
Then a voice from above said
"Horace Wimp, this is your life
Go out and find yourself a wife
Make a stand and be a man
And you will have a great life plan"
Friday
Horace, this is it
He asks the girl if maybe they could marry
When she says, "Gladly" Horace cries for her
Sunday
Everybody's at the church
When Horace rushes in and says
"Now here come my wife for the rest of my life" and she did
Don't be afraid, just knock on the door
Well, he just stood there mumblin' and fumblin'
Then a voice from above said
"Horace Wimp, this is your wife
Go out and find yourself a life
Make a stand and be a man
And you will have a great life plan"
You Just Need To See How Many Singles Were Hits From It... Absolute Stunning Classic. :innocent:
When the day is done and there's nowhere to run
And the people of the city have all lost and won
In your city dress you stand and stare
And you smoke another cigarette and comb your hair
And the light that shines
Paints a trace of sadness
On the street I wait
But I can't seem to get to you.
Well, you start to sway, check your Cartier
'Cos it's getting late, you can't afford to wait
So you move along where it's going on
And the people of the night are playing 'till the dawn
And the sun that shines
Paints a trace of sadness
In your eyes that cry
Wishing and hoping
Oh...
[Chorus:]
Sweet, sweet is the night
Now you are near
Dark, dark were the days
They disappear
Sweet, sweet is the night
Now you are near.
It was 9-29, 9-29 back street big city.
The sun was going down, there was music all around
It felt so right.
It was one of those nights, one of those nights when
you feel the world stop turnin', you were standing
There, there was music in the air. I should have been
Away, but I knew I'd have to stay.
Last train to London, just headin' out,
Last train to London, just leavin' town.
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you,
Let the music play on down the line tonight.
It was one of those nights, one of those nights when
you feel the fire is burnin', everybody was there,
everybody to share
It felt so right.
:stuck_out_tongue:
I was searchin' SEARCHIN' on a one-way street,
I was hopin' HOPIN' for a chance to meet.
I was waitin' for the operator on the line.
SHE'S GONE SO LONG What can I do?
WHERE COULD SHE BE? No no no,
don't know what I'm gonna do,
I gotta get back to you.
You gotta slow down SLOW DOWN sweet talkin' woman SLOW DOWN
You got me runnin' RUN RUN you got me searchin'.
Hold on HOLD ON sweet talkin' lover HOLD ON
It's so sad if that's the way it's over.
Above the clouds - one of my all time favorites.
You're sailing softly through the sun
in a broken stone age dawn.
You fly so high.
I get a strange magic,
oh, what a strange magic,
oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
got a strange magic.
You're walking meadows in my mind,
making waves across my time,
oh no, oh no.
I get a strange magic,
oh, what a strange magic,
oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
got a strange magic.

She cried to the southern wind
About a love that was sure to end
Every dream in her heart was gone
Headin' for a Showdown
Bad dreamer, what's your name
Looks like we're ridin' on the same train
Looks as through there'll be more pain
There's gonna be a Showdown
And it's rainin' all over the world
It's raining all over the world
Tonight, the longest night :laughing:
Yes Sun is shinin' in the sky,
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin'
Everybody's in a play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day. !!! :laughing:
