Oct 12, 2008 - Thank you so much for sharing and the nice slides! Jeff's voice sounds similar like on 'face the music', Maybe it's from that era?

Oct 12, 2008 - It´s Elo like without orchestra. A very nice song. Thanx master Lynne!

Oct 12, 2008 - This is Jeff at his most-Beatlesesque I think I've ever heard. It reminds me of 'Across The Universe' and the vocals are almost like John Lennon reincarnated. Nice slide show with the domestic Jeff pics :)

Oct 12, 2008 - I'm constantly on the look-out for rare un-released nuggets of jeff lynne gold and you have made my year. this is remarkable and especially as its a full length song with a more than decent production. Although I love his layered productions, sometimes his stripped down and more acoustic offerings are amazing - Jeff Lynne Lite sort of thing. Thanks.

heavyheadrecords Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - no.. this song is composed in 1977, in the Out Of The Blue era..

VictorianSquire Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - The intro sounds a little like "Big Wheels" and "Waterfall" with a very generous helping of "Across the Universe" as suggested by euseblus65.Still, unmistakably Jeff Lynne.

JLynnefan Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - Thats right, but it reminds me more at the aera of Idle Race :)Sorry for my english, i'm from Germany ;)

mart2164 Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - Awesome, never heard this before is it available as a track on any of the re-released and re-mastered offerings that are out there ???

stardance99 Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - No, this sounds like Mr. Kingdom from the album "Eldorado". The opening melody is almost the same. Good track, where on earth did you find this?

ericlouet44 Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - Nobody tops Jeff Lynne. Helen Reddy's version of the song is quite cool... But Jeff Lynne... He rules!!!

Burqua12 Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - The verse reminds strongly on the song "Midnight Blue" on "Discovery".I get connotations to John Lennon too.Is this a joke or what?At parts, it doesn't even sound like Jeff Lynne singing.Is it?Hm...Nice plagiarism.There really is no good reason for not to put this song on an official record.Why wasn't it released?

meikelkorleone Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - I'm gonna eat my hat!It's funny, because few minutes ago I just played the song MISSION (A WORLD RECORD)...It starts with the line:"For many days we travelled from a distant place and time..." and that's almost the same I hear on this

philip0460 Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - Helen's is awesome. I posted Helen Reddy's version above... I hope you enjoy it.

panamco Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - Since the song wasn't released, Jeff Lynne may have stolen parts of it for other songs

schalker331 Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - I don't think it's stealing considering Jeff Lynne wrote this song too...Wish there was a better cut of this song done by Jeff though; I like his demo so much more than Helen Reddy's finished song.

panamco Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - Maybe borrowed was a better word. I know wome songwriters put songs aside for various reasons, then later take a bar or a short part of it to use in other songs. That was my real meaning here.

kuiamaii Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - beautiful song, it's true that echoes jeff's song with idle race.

mcmanas Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - my god -fantastic song -all from Jeff is perfect -HI ELO maniac -I am!!!!!

loftoy Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - Great Jeff, great, great!!I want this song in stereo, please!!
