Quiet lurker/music lover who "accidentally" also became a part-time weird conversationalist. Music Recommendations. I prefer CDs and records. Ironic.
This is a "symphony" of four songs, if you will, entitled Concerto for a Rainy Day from ELO's seventh album Out of the Blue.
It's comprised of Standing in the Rain, Big Wheels, Summer and Lightning, and Mr. Blue Sky.
I won't blame you if you don't have time to listen to all 18 or so minutes of this.
But if you do...
It's spectacular.

(please set the order of the photos from a-z on the album, as except for the last few, that's the exact order I took them in.)
That's the link to the photo album, because I was having trouble uploading them to Fimfic.

Ouch, I fell off the tightrope into the abyss below!
I don't know what I just did with this blog post at all.
Ah, yes we come to what I deem to be my "favorite" (hard air quotes there) ELO song.
I mean, there's probably others I like just as much (and I truly enjoy all of their songs) but there's just something special about this one.
It also helps that this song reminds me greatly of Past Sins, but that's a story for another day.
ELO's fourth album is called Eldorado.
Best Fimfiction mod.
It's structured so that a lot of songs flow together without any silence between tracks, which is wonderful.
This isn't my favorite song (Well, a song and its intro song, similar to Sirius/Eye in the Sky), but I would be remiss if I didn't include it.
I love all the references to the geography of the coastline of the New England states in this song.
The Downeaster Alexa by Billy Joel, from the 1989 album Storm Front

Same album as his #1 hit “We Didn’t Start the Fire” in 1989? I don’t remember how it goes before listening to this now but I know it reached #57 on the Hot 100 in 1990 I think. We didn’t start the fire is a great song though.

Yep, the entire album (Storm Front, October 17, 1989 is great, though this song, We Didn't Start The Fire (of course), and Leningrad are my favorites from it.
Leningrad is practically the only song that can make me tear up a little bit.
Look it up sometime.
I will.
But what if I’m Kendrick Lamar?

Nice try; you aren't.
Another freaky coincidence between us is that I also do not know any foreign languages, except that I've studied some Latin like you have.

Are you my doppelgänger? Lol. If we ever hypothetically met in person, that means I would die in some folklore in Germany or something lmao.

It's also like that in every time travel movie ever made.
Do you like the movie Back to the Future? It spawned a number one hit on the Hot 100 in 1985 by Huey Lewis and the News “The Power of Love”.

I've seen part of it, I think. A long time ago.
And I've been meaning to check out Huey..., because I'm rereading Anthropology and they were mentioned.
I love Huey Lewis and news. They’re so 80s it almost hurts. The 80s might be my favorite decade for music, though it’s almost a tie with the 1970s. Lol

70s 80s 90s, late 60s, 00s If you're selective, even some 10's
They're all great.
But the 80s are special.
I love Billy Joel's music so much.
