  I’m a 63 year old man that used to listen to ELO all the time when I was a teenager. Watching you discover this music and get so into it just made me tear up. I love your legit reactions to the music. You made my heart sing!  Thank you for making my day!

  We had the best music during the 70s. The kids today haven't got a clue about music 🎵

  Jeff Lynne is a legitimate genius. It is so good that every time I watch someone discover his music, they just LOVE it!

  Hearing telephone line tore me up. My wife would talk to me on my way to work, at lunch, and on my way home. She passed away last year, I miss her so much 😥. This brought me to tears 😭

  The album Eldorado is a perfect record from beginning to end. Pop perfection.

  My wife heard Mr. Blue Sky come on and put her book down to watch your reaction. The more excited you got, the more excited she got. After the reaction she said  "She's fuckin' awesome! She really gets it. Can we adopt her?" 😂

  As a 64 year old seeing a teenager discovering boomer music for the first time was heart warming and your analysis of the songs, was very insightful. Its great that good music is safe in your hands. Please inform more of your generation that there is great music out there for them to discover

  There was a time when real people ( musicians ) &nbsp;made real music and yes, Mr Blue Sky ends in a Lullaby.

  Your Beatles remark is spot on. McCartney stated that this is what The Beatles would’ve sounded like had they carried on, &amp; Lennon referred to them as ‘Son of the Beatles’.

  I lived this era, every week another fantastic hit came out and they were all brilliant, ELO, Smokie, Slade, Black Sabbath, Queen, Led Zeplin, Showadywaddy, Spandau Ballet, UB40 as a young teen in the 70&apos;s T-Rex was for me the best until Marc Bolan RIP was killed in a car crash but the music went on and on and on.... British rock scene was the best in the world and this all came after the Beatles.
