Reseña
El álbum de 1976 'A New World Record' es la obra que catapultó a la ELO al estrellato mundial de manera definitiva, y una pieza esencial en la discografía de ELO. Por lo tanto, en este trabajo, Jeff Lynne perfecciona su fórmula de pop sinfónico hasta alcanzar un equilibrio magistral entre la ambición artística y el éxito comercial. De hecho, el disco es una colección impecable de éxitos.
En consecuencia, la producción del álbum es una de las más brillantes y pulidas de la década. Cada canción es un universo sonoro en sí mismo, con capas y capas de voces, de sintetizadores y de cuerdas que crean un sonido espectacular. Como resultado, el disco fue un éxito de ventas masivo en todo el mundo.
Además, el álbum es una auténtica fábrica de clásicos. "Telephone Line" es una de las baladas más bellas y melancólicas de su carrera. "Livin' Thing" es un tema de pop orquestal con un estribillo inolvidable, y "Do Ya", una revisión de una canción de su anterior banda The Move, se convierte en un potente himno de rock and roll.
En definitiva, 'A New World Record' es una obra maestra del pop barroco. Es el sonido de una banda en la cima de su poder creativo, un disco que no solo dominó las listas de éxitos, sino que también estableció a ELO como una de las bandas más importantes y originales de su tiempo.

- TightropeVer letra
[X]letra de Tightrope
They say some days you're gonna win,
They say some days you're gonna lose.
I tell you I got news for you
Your losin' all the time you never win
If you believe that's how it's gonna be I'd better put you down
Get off your tightrope up there come down on
The ground you gotta save me now,
You better turn around.
When I looked around, I was heading down.
Won't somebody throw me down a line.
They say some days you gotta give--
They say some days you gotta take--
If that's the way it's gotta be,
Roll it over and you will see.
The city streets are full of people going nowhere making time.
The change from night to day is really only hours,
It's just along the line can't you see the sign
When I looked around, I was heading down,
Won't somebody throw me down a line.
I want to look you straight in the eye,
I want to tell you how I really feel,
I can feel the wheels turnin' round,
Won't somebody throw me down a line
The city streets are full of people going nowhere making time,
The change from night to day is really only hours
It's just along the line, can't you see the sign
When I closed my eyes, I was so surprised
Somebody had thrown me down the line--stopped me drownin' - Telephone LineVer letra
[X]letra de Telephone Line
Hello, how are you?
Have you been alright, through all those lonely nights?
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything
If you'd pick up that telephone
Hey, how you feelin'?
Are you still the same?
Don't you realize the things we did
Were all for real, not a dream
I just can't believe
They've all faded out of view
I look into the sky
(The love you need ain't gonna see you through)
And I wonder why
(The little things are finally coming true)
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
OK, so no one's answering
Well can't you just let it ring a little longer?
I'll just sit tight, through the shadows of the night
Let it ring for evermore
I look into the sky
(The love you need ain't gonna see you through)
And I wonder why
(The little things are finally coming true)
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight - Rockaria!Ver letra
[X]letra de Rockaria!
Just got back from the downtown palais
Where the music was so sweet
It knocked me right back in the alley
I'm ready, yea, yea, yea, I'm ready,
Wo, wo, wo, I'm ready
And I'm really gonna rock tonight.
Sweet little lady sings like a songbird
And she sings the opera like you ain't never heard,
But she ain't ready,
No, no, no, she ain't ready
No, no, no, she ain't ready,
And she ain't gonna rock & roll
CHORUS
She's sweet on Wagner,
I think she'd die for Beethoven,
She loves the way Puccini lays down a tune,
And Verdi's always creeping from her room
Come on I'll show you how to sing the blues
Now baby, come on over you got nothin' to lose,
Are you ready, hey, hey, hey are you ready
Ooh, ooh, ooh, are you ready
I wanna show you how to rock and roll.
Now listen here baby she, said to me
Just, meet me at the opera house at a quarter to three,
'Cos I'm ready, yea, yea, yea, I'm ready,
Woo, hoo, hoo, I'm ready,
I'm gonna show you how to sing the blues.
CHORUS -- repeat
Far, far away the music is playing.
Well we were reelin' and a rockin' all through the night,
Yea we were rockin' at the opera house until the break of light,
And the orchestra were playin' all Chuck Berry's greatest tunes.
And the singers in the chorus all got off on singing blues,
And as the night grew older everybody was as one,
The people on the streets came runnin' in to join in song
Just to hear the opera singer singin' rock & roll so pure,
I thought I saw the mayor there but I wasn't really sure,
But it's alright. - Mission (A World Record)
- So FineVer letra
[X]letra de So Fine
Two drifters on the morning sky,
Two drifters sailing wide and high,
When summer breezes blow across your mind,
With you, I will walk the line.
CHORUS
I want it so fine
I want it so fine
I want it so fine
People walking hand in hand,
Everybody's singing to the band,
I want to be where the stars shine bright,
And hear sweet music on a summer night.
CHORUS -- repeat
Sundowners we'll go on and on,
We'll find the land of the midnight sun,
And when you look you'll see for miles around,
You'll see, the world is in your hand.
CHORUS -- repeat
CHORUS -- repeat - Livin' Thing
- Above the CloudsVer letra
[X]letra de Above the Clouds
I came along to see your face,
But the only thing I got from you,
was telling me it's fantasy,
That you would always be with me,
I can tell you that's it's true,
I'm waiting here, but it's alright,
It's alright with me, you better believe me now.
I guess it's like a mountain side,
You've got to climb it to the top,
Floating in a sea of dreams,
The only thing that you can see,
Is the view above the clouds.
I'm waiting here, but it's alright,
Still it's alright with me,
You better believe me now. - Do YaVer letra
[X]letra de Do Ya
In this life I've seen everything I can see woman,
I've seen lovers flying through the air hand in hand
I've seen babies dancing in the midnight sun,
And I've seen dreams that came from the heavenly skies fromabove
I've seen old men crying at their own grave sides
And I've seen pigs all sitting watching, picture slides
But I never seen nothin' like you.
Chorus
Do ya do ya want my love
Do ya do ya want my face
Do ya do ya want my mind
Do ya do ya want my love
Well I, heard the crowd singin' out of tune,
As they, at and sang auld lang syne by the light of the moon
I heard the preachers bangin' on the drums,
And I heard the police playin' with their guns
But I never heard nothing like you.
In the country where the sky touches down
On the field, she lay her down to rest
In the morning sun,
They come a'runnin' just to get a look, just to
Feel to touch her long black hair they don't give a damn
Repeat Chorus
Well I think you know what I'm trying to say woman,
That is I'd like to save you for a rainy day,
I've seen enough of the world to know,
That I've got to get it all to get it all to grow.
Repeat Chorus - Shangri-LaVer letra
[X]letra de Shangri-La
Sitting here, waiting for,
Someone calling at my door,
Too bad,
I'm getting out of love.
What's the use of changing things,
Wonder what tomorrow brings,
Who knows,
I'm getting out of love.
CHORUS
My Shangri-la has gone away,
Faded like the Beatles on Hey Jude
She seemed to drift out on the rain
That came in somewhere softly from the blue
Clouds roll by and hide the sun,
Raindrops fall on everyone,
So sad,
I'm getting out of love.
CHORUS -- repeat
CHORUS -- repeat
