Best ELO cover on the planet... oh, wait... In the UNIVERSE!

[VinceLammas]

I saw the title here and my preconception was 'Come on, there must be limits to what you guys can do, this is ELO! Something's going to be lacking, surely!' Three listens through and OMG this really blows my socks off. An ELO fan of 58 years is madly impressed.

[dirkbag]

So great. I hope Jeff sees this. Magnificent.

[georgebudimir]

I love that Toni is playing a solid mahogany Martin D15. I also own one and it's underrated. It has exceptional high and low tones that flow through the sound hole.

[davefroman]

When the four of you get together it is strange magic.

[mrichling]

As a person who plays, performing is such a wonderful drug... especially when it's done well. You guys smile, you have fun and you truly enjoy what your doing... remember the feeling. It is wonderful, and listening you you, it brings back lots of great memories and emotions. Remember it with all your heart. Thank you.

[pkane]

Hear what Reina said after the last note? "hell yeah" She knew they nailed it.

[smetlogik]

The title didn't lie. This whole thing is a Strange Magic. Hell, yeah.

[Filipgroesbaek]

For me, an important of the appeal of these marvelous young musician-singer-performers is the setting - here a living room arrangement. So up close & personal, intimate even, with the group wearing normal, everyday, unpretentious clothes, & really looking like they're having fun being together. I hasten to add that this is NOT the most important appeal they have: that would be their talent & skill. But sitting together in a homey room like this, or outside in a park or by a river, in a non-concert venue, somehow makes the wonderful music more charming & accessible.

Hey, I’m a 63 year old boy who grew up lovin ELO and had the privilege of seeing them live a few times. I heard a few bands trying covers over the years with different degrees of success probably because of the sometimes complex arrangements but, and I don’t say this lightly I absolutely love this rendition and in my humble opinion I love it better than the original. Brought back a lot of memories thank you

I don't often comment but I have to say, this is one of the best covers I've ever heard. Please never stop, we need you in this world that is so devoid of good music.

[christianwacker]

It’s never wrong to like a Reina del CID video before watching, especially when the Other Favourites are involved. Great cover, fantastic harmonies, brings back memories. Thank you all

[stevenance]

I saw ELO in 1977…I’m 70 now and these guys certainly do this song justice and brings back a great memory for me.

[peterbroad]

Great cover of a great song. It brings me joy that 50 years on younger people are still listening to and appreciating this superb music and adding their own take to it.

[Sup_ERS_Tar]

What an arrangement, with each person demonstrating their advanced musical abilities.

[ЕкатеринаБелослудцева-юс]

You are incredible!!! This cover is the only thing that can make my 11 month child stop crying. Seriously. No one in my family can understand, but when I turn it on, my baby becomes so peaceful and relaxed. Thank you for the cover. Wish you success in all.

[Purple_Pixel]

When you guys (Reina, Carson, Josh and Toni) perform together it is like a supergroup.

[dinopharis]

Hell yeah it's right Jeff Lynne would even be impressed.

[brecknichols]

Stunning! Beautiful! Wonderful!
Greetings from Dallas, Texas!!!

[markcraven]

If only Jeff could have been in the room, he should have been ! Josh and all his " technical extras" spot on. More lights and dials on the floor than a jet cockpit. LOL
