OK, this is it! We have 256 songs by ELO, Jeff Lynne's ELO, Jeff Lynne solo, The Move, and The Idle Race. Your job, if you choose to accept it, will be to vote for your favorites in each round. Simple enough, right?
I'll bet you're asking yourself "Chippa, how do you choose the songs for each round?" Well, I'm glad you asked. I copy and paste the list of songs here. Whichever songs are at the top of the list, get placed into battle.
As always, REMEMBER TO VOTE IN THE POLL OR YOUR VOTE WON'T COUNT!
So without further ado, here we go....
The first contest in Round one of our tournament features the rhythmic deep cut from Out Of The Blue, Jungle facing off with the closing track from A New World Record, Shangri-La.

A great start, thanks for sorting this out Chippa two strong songs to start with Shangri-La gets my vote it’s a classic album end song.

Thanks for doing this, Chippa, they are both good songs, but Shangri-La just edges it, for me.

I quite like Jungle but it’s Shangri-la for me.

Ditto, the amazing outro to Shangri-La makes it a winner in most comparisons for me

I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority for ranking Jungle in the better half of OOTB. Always been a fan of chooka-chooka-ooh-la-ley's! Still, Shangri-la gets my vote.

I like Jungle too, it seems Jeff had loads of fun adding layers of stuff to it. I bet it's one of his favourites.

You didn't vote in the poll, eloneen. Remember to vote in the poll itself or votes don't count. I don't make the rules here..... hah!

Hard to beat Shangri-la as an album closer, easy choice for me

Shangri-La for me. That keyboard sound at the end is almost Genesis-like, certainly of the same era.
