Endless Lies won the worst song poll in a close run contest for side three.
Side four gives us the above tracks, vote for the worst.

None of these do a whole lot for me, but After All is bottom of this heap imo.

Both "Mandalay" and "After all" rank really high among ELO's worst songs, but at least "After all" tortures us for a shorter while, so I'll vote for "Mandalay".

in the absence of Beatles forever (which is frankly very poor) I'll go for Mandalay

I love After All, particularly the full length version/B-side. It's actually in my personal ELO Top Ten! The real sponge pudding here is Mandalay, very wisely excluded from the original track listing. It's a bit banal and not even a dollop of custard could improve it

Y'know, I have been thinking about starting a discussion about songs that people hated but grew to like. After All is one of those songs for me. Used to hate it but I can listen to it and feel all my worries melt away. I think Jeff said something about swaying palm trees and I can see them in my mind as that song plays. It's not bad. Mandalay however, is yuck for me. Maybe in another 30 years it'll grow on me. But not today.
