It's that time again. I've got another song stuck in my head, and you get to reap the benefits (if you can call it that).
Today's earworm comes courtesy of The Electric Light Orchestra. ELO is probably best known for singles such as "Don't Bring Me Down", "Do Ya", and a cover of "Roll Over Beethoven". I'd heard the name before, but only recently got into them after hearing "Twilight" used as the opening for the cult Japanese Drama, Densha Otoko.
I purchased "Strange Magic: The Best of Electric Light Orchestra" to appease my craving. The problem is that ELO's music is very diverse. What I wanted was more "Twilight". And after learning that Twilight was part of larger entity that was the concept album titled "Time", I just had to own it.
"Time" is a great album. While no two songs on the album sound much alike, they are similar enough to form a cohesive being. And also, it's got a bunch of really catchy songs. Like "Hold On Tight".
So, without further adieu, "Hold on Tight" by Electric Light Orchestra.
