So I stole this idea from Hannah#1 because I thought it was a fantastic idea. Anyway, I'm not sure if anyone here has heard of the band "Electric Light Orchestra." ELO for short. My favorite song by them is called Here is the News from their album TIME, which is incredible. One of my favorite bands of all time, Brave Saint Saturn (where my username comes from) did a cover of this song on their last album. While I was looking around youtube, I found another band called "Pain" that also covers this song. So I'll post the three different versions and you guys can pick which one you like best.

ELO (original) - here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRWZxO4UhVE)

Brave Saint Saturn - here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wP7jSpIU9g8)

Pain- here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jU0RBUD3wg)

My favorite is Brave Saint Saturn, because Reese Roper is my favorite singer and he sounds amazing at the "I wanna go home I want my baby back" part.

The second one.

I got a lot of love for ELO though. Cos they made one of the best songs ever in... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98P-gu_vMRc

The fans sing it in my team's soccer stadium also. And his hair is epic.

You chose wisely. The Brave Saint Saturn (or BS2) one is amazing, but the sound quality of the youtube video isn't.


I love that song too. ELO is fantastic. For some reason I'm in love with TIME, I guess because it was the main inspiration for BS2. All the guys in BS2 were also in Five Iron Frenzy. BS2 was their side project. I love hearing soccer fans sing songs. It's quite amazing.

I can't say I have sat & listened to that album, I'll look it up.

My team's fans seriously sing the best songs, Ring Of Fire, John Lennon, Hey Jude. Perfect.

It's my favorite. It definitely has a unique sound compared to their other stuff. "2095" is another one of my favorite ELO songs.


That's the one thing I like about soccer ;).
