Alex Lester/ELO 11 Years ago  
Played Shine A LIttle Love by ELO this morning. Surely it's time for a Jeff Lynne revival?

Ello ELO

Re:Alex Lester/ELO 11 Years ago  
Oh, JK - you are SO out of touch!

For the record, it is little more than a year ago that Jeff was in the Top 10 of the album chart with Long Wave, at the same time as TWO (!) ELO 'best of' compilations (Mr Blue Sky and All Over The World) were in the Top 10.

Your comments are so wide of the mark.

Mr Blue Sky is so irritating, it's over played and it's the only song people know by ELO.

I thought I was the only one that detested it.

And Chris Evans played it this morning (he obviously reads this forum). It's not one of my ELO favourites but I think the ending is fantastic. One of the very few times I think one of my versions was better than the original is my I Can't Get It Out Of My Head.

No, you're not. It is an irritating record with a overblown sound an insipid lyric. Not knocking Jeff Lynne though, he is immensely gifted and for a while was his own Beatles.
