MDC, you got a strange magic!<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/lol.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="lol"><br><br>
Sorry, I'm 40 and ELO has such awesome memories for me!!! Jeff Lynne, will you marry me? (Or just let me be a backup singer, at least?):<br><br>

The links in post #1 I think are of a pretty recent concert on MTV or something. All I know is I hear them on like every freaking commercial lately...and every Adam Sandler movie.<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/winky.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Wink"><br><br>
At least there is <b>one</b> other fan like me on MDC!<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/lol.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="lol">

Oh, I love ELO. They bring back memories from HS, and this boyfriend I had who was a huge fan. The song "Livin' Thing" was playing at Subway one day when we were eating there shortly after I broke up with him and he was so heartbroken and it was so awful....don't know what was wrong with me. To this day I still get all nostalgic when I hear that song.

Awwww. It brings back big memories for me, too. That was rotten luck that song had to play right after you broke up!<img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/lol.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="lol"><img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/innocent.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="shy">

I love ELO! I remember having them on 8 track. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/lol.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="lol"><br><br>
Most of the mamas here probably haven't even heard of 8 track.<br><br>
Now I can really live up to my DDDDC. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.mothering.com/discussions/images/smilies/lol.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="lol"><br><br>
Telephone Line is my favorite.

How I didn't catch this the other day is beyond me! I love ELO! The first song I heard was Fire on High and I was hooked. Just hearing Livin Thing makes me think about driving around in parent's old van, letting the breeze run through my fingers on a spring night! I have noticed the increase in commercials using ELO lately. It's good and bad, but I don't blame them for wanting to make some cash. Rock on, Meredith
