My favourite youtuber has finally got round to ELO. Doug Helvering is a classical composer and music teacher. On 'The Daily Doug' he posts reaction videos with Friday being long song day. As a prog fan, I've enjoyed his analysis of various long songs by Genesis, Yes and Marillion. He pays a lot of attention to the way a song is constructed and also the lyrics which puts him ahead of some of the other people who do these videos who just say a song is amazing without much more elaboration.
Here's his reaction to the whole of the Concerto For A Rainy Day:

Thanks tremblinwilbury! Scrumptious, indeed! The presenter puts into words (and is obviously also experiencing) all the feels I got from this song when I first heard it at age 11 and fell in love with ELO. It's hands down the finest track that ELO ever created, in my humble opinion. Thanks again!

Have you ever wanted to watch an almost four hour long video of someone analyzing Out Of The Blue, to death? Say no more!

I know I know it is MBS but .... if you like these type of videos this one one of the best I have come across. At 11 minutes she actually breaks down why it is so damn appealing ... really worth a watch and is really trying to understand it ... top marks

The Daily Doug has now listened to his third ELO song, a long time after the second. He has promised to listen to them more often.
