We get woken every morning by our radio alarm clock, there’s no Scotland the Brave for us, a la Lorraine, but the manic tones of Chris Evans, whom I’ve actually got used to and quite like but the other morning he played ELO’s Mister Blue Sky and committed the sin of talking over the end of it!! Honestly, what makes them do it? Hinging’s too good for them – as we say. Anyway, if like me you heard him chuntering on about nothing important whilst the music was faded out and you too were incensed by him, here’s the original 1977 pro mo. It doesn’t quite capture the whole thing I’m sure there’s a bit of a hiccup close to the end and there are a few notes missing, but it cheered me up.
Wasn’t all that hair great?
I actually had my hair done like that once years and years ago! I cried and cried and washed it and washed it:)
Peggy Ann,
I had a similar experience – a very bad perm!
I was so glad I stopped by and listened to this song. Actually it made me sad and I don’t know why, memories of those day? But I enjoyed it really. I guess it was a good kind of sad.
TracyK,
Apart from the good tune I think I like it just because of the blue sky, something we don’t have enough of here. I was 18 when it was in the charts, people always say that the 1970s were a disaster, fashion-wise especially but I loved that era. I’m glad you sort of enjoyed it!
