Super rad Jeff Lynne song. I heard it because it's on a soundtrack for a 1984 movie called "Electric Dreams". I wanna see this movie (sort of). It looks like it might be about computer romance but in 1984 before computers could do anything. Giorgio Moroder had a few songs on it but i'm not sure if he produced this single. i want that pic disc.
Found a no-singing version and got excited to make a karaoke out of it. Instruments are all there but i had to record all the backup vox. Really fun. Recorded the lead vocal too while i was at it. Here it is. There are dolphin noises right before the first verse. great!
original:
used clips from the above video to make an enhanced version of the karaoke vid. i'm not sure who the bearded producer guy is, but in the comments somebody thinks it's Bud Cort and somebody else think it's Richard Tandy (who played recorded the song with Lynne). I can't tell or find any information about it... looking forward to singing it on monday!:
one more thing! Jeff Lynne released a new solo album this year. i just started listening to it right now and it's amazing so far. click to listen to the first track, "She".
