The Music Thread

I remember discussing ELO's album Time here and sharing some of their work. I just gotta say they're honestly great.

Been listening to "The Diary of Horace Wimp" and it's amazing.



Also if you didn't know, they also made Mr. Blue Sky.



Also Time has become one of my top ten, if not number one just because of how amazing all the songs are in that Album. Hell, even the album cover is beautiful. Usually when I listen to an album I'll enjoy one song and dislike the rest, with Time I enjoyed pretty much all the songs.

Yours Truly 2095 really made me see how amazing this album was when I stopped listening to the music and started to listen to the lyrics AND the music. It's a really cool story of a guy who tried to get an android who looked like his girlfriend back in 1981, although while she is an android who looks exactly like her and does the same things as her, he can tell that she's different and SHE can tell that he doesn't like her. She knows that he doesn't like or love her.

Lines like "She knows I think of you, she reads my mind, she tries to be unkind be she knows nothing of our world", "She's only programmed to be very nice, but she's as cold as ice whenever I get too near" or hell even the robotic "I love you, in theory". I think I've already shared it, but give it another listen.
