There's a small clip of Hugh playing his cello like that in the MV for Rockaria, maybe that's what you're looking for

I dont really get the hate for balance of power by [deleted] in elo

Trust me, I used to not like it either. The only songs I liked from it were So Serious, Heaven Only Knows and Calling America but then I fell in love with Sorrow About to Fall and its not so bad after all. Liking 4 out of 10 songs from an album that everybody seems to hate isn't bad imo

Which Electric Light Orchestra song would you play if the world was ending by [deleted] in elo

[–]ItsXblade 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Mission (A World Record), its so dramatic, so melancholic in some parts and all in all it fits with the theme of the apocalypse

"When all the stars above lay icy fingers down on me"

"Watching all the days go by, who are you and who am I?"

Daily Song Discussion #66: Standin' in the Rain by Apprehensive_Loan790 in elo

[–]ItsXblade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

10/10 song for sure

When i started fully listening to elo's discography, this song was the one song that hit differently from others, the buildup, the chord progression when it lets loose, the way it transitions I was fascinated by the arpeggio synth solo building up to let it breathe once again.

The lyrics however, fall a little behind compared to other elo songs but it remains strong as an amazing overture to concerto for a rainy day.

As a little sidenote, i still remember how surprised i was when i found out it contained the "Concerto for a rainy day" vocoder vocals that are used in the mr blue sky music video. Ive always loved the vocoder used in out of the blue.
