All three singles released from OOTB went to number 6 in the UK charts ( 666) and then in 198 6 they split up,1 6 years (more or less) after forming and then played Hyde Park when Jeff was 66, exactly 28 years after their last proper live concert and what does 8-2 =? 6! What's more, Jeff was 69 when playing Wembley this year and exactly 39 years after the last Wembley show and what does 9-3=... 6!!! Spooky eh??

So Jeff is the devil then? hehe..... It all starts to fall into place when you look at it. I ruined two good needles and my copy of Face the Music trying to spin it backwards at JLs urging. Look at how he beguiles and transfixes millions with his infuriatingly catchy melodies and string arrangements. At a whim he can summon tens of thousands to worship at his presence and get them to pay for the privelege! Hell, I shelled out 200 quid last year and now he's got me to do it again and wait a full year into to the bargain . Just look at those black clothes and permanent shades (see the back cover of FTM).And what's lurking underneath that (frankly unnatural for a man of his age)mop of dark hair? Look what happens to those who displease him:poor Bev, condemned to playing old Move songs to half-empty community halls in Redditch on a Sunday night! And then of course there is Alone in the Universe, a cryptic reference to being The Desolate One, if ever I heard it.Do we realise what we're messing with?

....And of course the next single after the OOTB releases was Shine A Little Love which also reached No. 6 on the UK singles chart. Technically speaking though, they released the ELO EP before that and that only reached No. 34 - you guessed it, 6 places in to the top 40!!
OK that was a bit tenuous

OK that was a bit tenuous Tenuous? On this thread? And that 34, of course makes 7. Take away their only No.1 (Xanadu) and what do you get!!?? Right, I'm off for a lie down.
