The difference is not huge, but this is not the classic version. Jeff Lynne re-recorded the classic ELO songs a few years back and this is one of the re-recordings. For someone who has been enjoying the songs for decades it's easy to notice the difference and hard to understand why Jeff did it, especially without making improvements.

@Lexy-O Год назад

I think they do it for a better deal on royalties

@Lexy-O Год назад

I much prefer the original recordings

@robd4376 Год назад

Good ear Frank. It’s just not the same and not as good as the original version, just my opinion.

@Lexy-O Год назад

Problem was his vocals were in their prime as was his production and mixing skills on the original.

@jackgilchrist Год назад

I prefer the original recordings to this as well, but I think Jeff is sounding great in the "Jeff Lynne's ELO" concert film I watched a while back (I think the Wembley thing from 2017, or something in that time frame). The musicians, backup singers, etc., were all great, too, and the whole performance was tight. I don't generally have any desire to see old bands on their geriatric tours, as it just makes me sad, but I would really like to see them. The crowds were singing and dancing and having fun too.

What a *shame you didn't react to the original version, this is an inferior re-make done by Jeff Lynne decades later.* Having said that, I'm glad you guys are hitting up ELO more regularly these days. And I was stoked to hear *Lex* say that ELO is moving up on her list of favorite bands! :D Next from The Electric Light Orchestra, please react to their 1979 classic, *"The Diary of Horace Wimp"* you'll love it! (Use the studio version, and Brad, you do *NOT* need a lyrics video, all the lyrics are super easy to understand. Trust me.)

@davidbarrow3176 Год назад

Yes this sounds sub standard too the original.

@sebastianblack6506 Год назад

I knew something was off --- I just thought it was an alternate mix or something.

@markproffitt4935 Год назад

Yes, I noticed almost immediately that this was a different version from the original. My daughter said..."It sounds the same to me." I told her that if she had listened to this song 500 times as I have over the course of my life that she would hear the difference too. This version lacked something. Not quite as good in my opinion. Still good, but the original is better.

@LEE.COSTELLO Год назад

Yes, that's not the original It has something missing and I can hear some of the vocals have been auto tuned. The original is much better plus no auto tune or pitch correction.

Jeff Lynn is amazing. He grew up on classical music, fell in love with rock, and said “why can’t I have both?” His music is like no other. He incorporated orchestral instruments in rock songs. Well, pop songs anyway.

@Lexy-O Год назад

Plus his vocal arrangements, harmonies and production are amazing

@charlier711 Год назад

Agree on Jeff Lynn, I actually didn't realize who he was until he joined the Traveling Wilbury's - oh, he's the guy behind ELO! Good stuff!

Check out Sweet Talkin’ Woman (studio version) by ELO. It’s arguably their best song.

@jackgilchrist Год назад

@petern1938 Год назад

I once heard ELO described as the music the Beatles would have been making if they'd not split up.

@christopherwinkler4451 4 месяца назад

Yep, and that description came from none other than John Lennon himself. He described Showdown as a mix of Lighting Striking by Lou Christie and Heard It Through The Grapevine by Marvin Gaye, "with a little Walrus underneath." Perfectly apt desription.

@chrisa7498 Год назад

Most guilty pleasure song of all time. I remember when this came out and I was in 3rd or 4th grade. You guys make me realize that growing up in the 70s and 80s really was special.

@TheFlowNetwork Год назад

We're probably about the same age. I've been teaching an online class on the history of Rock. Once a week we learn about one year in Rock history...year by year. Tonight we're up to 1983...Thriller, Synchronicity, Business As Usual by Men At Work, Let's Dance by David Bowie, REM's first single "Radio Free Europe", Rock The Casbah, Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This, Come On Eileen!... the US Festival, U2 War tour and Live At Red Rocks "Sunday Bloody Sunday" with Bono waving that big white flag....I'm constantly amazed how great the music was in the 70's and 80's.

@827dusty Год назад

ELO has always been a Symphany Band. That's their trademark style. They dd a complete concert tv show on the BBC (British TV) a few years ago. They are just so good. And we can't forget Jeff Lynn (of ELO) was a member of "The Traveling Wilburys" along with Bob Dylan, George Harrison (Beatles) Roy Orbison, and Tom Petty.

@Buydirectincstore Год назад

ELO is Great, had their own Sound & did their own thing!

@chetcarman3530 Год назад

Jeff was a HUGE Beatles fan, especially. George Harrison's, whose influence can be heard in much/most of Jeff's music. Like this one. Lynne would become friends with George and produce more & more of G's tracks. This is how Travelling Wilburys came to pass, with some of their mutual influences & heroes joining in: Dylan, Petty, Orbison & longtime solo Beatles collaborator Jim Keltner on drums. This is one of ELO's first, biggest hits & one of my favorites by anybody of the period! Good call😃💜💜💜

@roberteytchison2595 Год назад

Jeff was the producer of Harrison's, Petty's and Orbison's come back album and was kind of the connection for the Wilburys. I think he is still the only producer to have 3 songs in the top 10 by 3 different artists at the same time and still didn't get the producer of the year that year. He and Harrison convinced Roy to overcome his severe stage fright and perform again. Gave us some great songs and a Super band in the process.

@larryhalbrook6874 Год назад

ELO is one of my favorite groups I played it work so much the guy in next dept. said aren;t you tired of listening to them yet, I said nope. LOL. I love thier sound and harmony and thier songs are upbeat and happy. they make you feel good and like all the stuff they put in thier music , that just catches your attention . It is chill fun , I can listen to them anytime, Strange Magic was one of my absolute faves. I think your talking of unrequited love, where they love but not returned, and thats fine if person accepts that and realizes its just not there for them.

@leogothisoscar271 Год назад

ELO have their live show down to a science and this is one of the songs that sounds even better live.

@olavjorvik94 Год назад

Watched them live in Norway in 2017 for the first time. They NAILED the live sound. It was SPOTLESS. Best live sound I’ve ever heard, and I’ve seen the odd show. The mix was so clean, it sounded like the album, honestly. Almost identical. And Jeff at his old age, sang and played perfect with his shades and curls. He’s my second favorite song writer, after George. And I hope he sticks around for a long time❤

@jeffreyflint6286 Год назад

Another great band that was so ahead of their time. So many great songs.

@CoffeeConnected Год назад

I can't agree with that because how many acts around today are doing the ELO thing? They are very much of their time and place, England in the 1970s. I do agree that they created so many great songs though.

@txrojas Год назад

They had their time. Decided to go disco and never recovered. They were original but not ahead of their time.

Sailing away on the crest of a wave, it’s like magic.. Rolling and riding, slipping and sliding, it’s magic. For me this song is about surfing. And it was often stuck in my head while surfing as a teenager in the late 70’s.

When I was a kid, ELO was my first rock band obsession. I had all of their albums and spent hours listening to the records and admiring the album art (we didn't have the internet yet...don't hate). Actually, I would say all that ELO album art inspired me to be an artist, and I've been an artist professionally for almost 30 years.

@JFLY78 Год назад

As a person born in 1978 I don't think there is any other band that invokes more nostalgic memories for me than ELO...the weird thing is that the memories that come flooding back are the most mundane, day-to-day activities as these songs played in the background, it's weird, I can remember them very vividly and with great clarity...."Strange Magic" indeed!

@ericq9049 Год назад

I would argue that Jeff Lynne has had as much impact on the sound of rock in the 70s and 80s as Phil Spector did in the 60s, except he changed the sound for a lot of already well established artists. His vocal production is beyond compare.

@CharlesBryan1 Год назад

Love is love. It is like a radio transmission. You can transmit a radio show, but if no one tunes in to it then no one will hear it. But the radio signal is still there. And so, the transmission of love is still love even if there is no receiver. The Charles has spoken. :)

@berniemargolis4288 Год назад

I would argue that you can have one-sided love. It can certainly devolve into obsession, but it doesn't have to. When the intended recipient makes it clear that they have no wish to receive that love, then making the decision to back off and stop overtly expressing it is itself an act of love. You don't have to forcibly express love to feel it. In other words, love doesn't necessarily have to be given to be felt.

@jensen220 Год назад

From Songfact: There has been lots of speculation as to what this song is about, with a popular rumor being that it is an anti-abortion statement. ELO frontman Jeff Lynne has said it is simply about the loss of love, although its initial inspiration was a bout of food poisoning. He let that slip in a talk with Hi-Fi News & Record Review in 2014. "You'll never be able to listen to it the same again," he said. "I wouldn't want anyone to think it's about a bad paella on a Spanish holiday." The song features uncredited vocals by Patti Quatro (sister of Suzi Quatro), Brie Brandt, and Addie Lee, who were all one time members of the female rock group Fanny. According to Suzi Quatro's autobiography the trio sang the "higher and higher" parts. "Livin' Thing" returned to a Billboard chart for the first time in 40 years in 2017 as a result of its featuring in Volkswagen's "The New King" commercial. Fueled by its appearance in the ad, the tune entered the Rock Digital Songs Sales chart.

There is unconditional love which is an animal, it's a natural way of being. Single love can be you loving someone or loving yourself and when you love yourself, you are open to love from others. If you stand in love, you also give that to everyone around you because of the frequency of it. Just let it happen and don't define it.

@TheFlowNetwork Год назад

When ELO started, the concept was to pick up where the Beatles left off. Jeff Lynne was not only great at capturing the sound and style of the Beatles, but it's like he was able to channel each individual Beatle and write a song in their style. To me, this song is pure George Harrison. His melodic sense, choice of chords, singing style and subject matter (Harrison had a #1 hit called "Life" just a year or two before this came out)....love and spirituality. "Can't Get It Out Of My Head" is Lennon...."Telephone Line" is McCartney...."Mr. Blue Sky" is "A Day In The Life" revisited. "Strange Magic" is Lennon verses, McCartney chorus and Harrison guitar. Check them out and you'll see what I mean.
