So there might be debate if Beatles Forever would have been a hit, how about Danger Ahead as the second single in North America instead of Four Little Diamonds? Would that song have saved the album or would it still have slipped away...

I've always liked DA, much more than FLD. In the UK FLD was the 3rd and final single from the album...

In all honesty I don’t really get all the hype surrounding the song. Sure it’s catchy and musically skillful, and I like it, but reality is I can’t really think of it as a real song, like, I don’t think it would ever fit on an album or anything like that. It’s just a cutesy tribute from Jeff to the Beatles and although he delivers a stunning vocal performance and blends the little snippets of Beatles melodies in really well, you can’t get around the fact that it’s campy.

I think the hype around it is because it remained out of reach for a great many years. It's not the greatest Jeff/ELO song by a long mile but it is an annoying Earworm . I literally 'Can't Get It Out Of My Head'

I literally 'Can't Get It Out Of My Head' I think you have nailed it, it's because of it being such a rarity that it has reached lofty heights...

Another forgotten classic, built along the same lines as 'Hello My Old Friend' in structure and melody but rarely mentioned in the same breath....

Mandalay seems to be a bit of a Marmite song, I really like it.
