Free Music Notes for Very Best of Electric Light Orchestra 2 (Snyr)

Free Music Review: The Lesser-Knows' Day in the Sun
Hit: 5 Stars

First off, I have to say that Electric Light Orchestra is my all-time favorite band. I seriously love a lot of 70s/80s bands (I've seen Styx in concert twice), but nobody can beat ELO. This CD covers mostly their 1980s songs that never really got a lot of attention, and a couple of the minor classics. Let me give you the run-down:
Twilight- Time. A good opener for the CD.
Do Ya- A New World Record. Pure ELO magic.
Can't Get It Out of My Head- Eldorado. One of those haunting ELO songs that won't (ha ha) get out of your head.
Latitude 88 North- Out of the Blue remastered. A good catchy song. It escapes me why it wasn't on the album originally.
It's Over- Out of the Blue. A nice slow one. Good for rainy days.
Ticket to the Moon- Time. Slightly mournful, but good nontheless.
Heaven Only Knows- Balance of Power. Really good. I played it at my church retro party and everybody started dancing
Starlight- Out of the Blue. 'Nother slow one (nothing wrong with that).
Four Little Diamonds- Secret Messages. This one is really really good. I never grow tired of it.
Secret Messages- Secret Messages (duh). One of ELO's little digs at the people who accused them of backwards Satanic messages. Very good.
Eldorado- Eldorado (duh again). This is the only track that doesn't really mesh with the rest of the CD. It sounds much better on its own album.
So Serious- Balance of Power. Nice little boppy song.
Last Train to London- Discovery. One of the very few disco-y ELO songs (but who cares? Still sounds good).
In My Own Time- Zoom. I didn't know this was a "new" song until I read about it on Wikipedia. You can't tell, really. Jeff still sounds exactly the same.
Destination Unknown- Afterglow (compilation) and Balance of Power remastered. In other words, previous to Afterglow, unreleased. Seems a shame it wasn't on an actual album; I really like it!
The Way Life's Meant to Be- Time. Not my favorite ELO song, but there's nothing wrong with it either.
One Summer Dream- Face the Music. Yet another haunting Lynne melody. How he could come up with so many very different-sounding songs is beyond me...
Calling America- Balance of Power. The whole CD is good, don't get me wrong. But if I had to pick ONE favorite track, this would be it.
Moment in Paradise- Zoom. A very nice song. Contains the lowest note I've ever heard Jeff Lynne hit.
Surrender- A New World Record remastered. A not-so-typical-ELO boppy song. It WILL get stuck in your head All. Day. Long.
So yes, this CD doesn't have all their mega-hits, but that's the point! There have been so many various ELO big hits CDs that I guess they decided to release the lesser-known songs to give them a chance to show off. Believe me, they can stand on their own. This is a highly enjoyable CD. Every serious ELO fan must have it.
