Comment: The very essence of Beatle enthralled 70s Brit rock, and for once that's no bad thing... The lyric means nothing as the atmosphere created by the churning cellos and slow arpeggio guitars is everything. Imagine it as part of the soundtrack in say, Casino or Boogie Nights or some such, in a slow motion aftermath. Theres an underlying sense of decadence and a detachment here that is truly enthralling.

One of my favorite ELO songs. I haven't listened to it in ages though. Thanks for reminding me about it. I should get the album on vinyl.

I didn't say digital. I said on vinyl.

That is a nice blast from the past and thanks for posting it; ELO are wonderfully over the top and some of their stuff is brilliant. While I have most of their better known songs on my iPod, I don't have that particular song, so it's nice to be reminded of it.

Cheers and good luck
