Good Tuesday Afternoon my RP Brothers and Sisters!
Well I am not doing very well in posting my Music Interludes today... or for that matter, getting anything done that I need to do... I guess we all have those days once in while!
It is just after 2PM on the East Coast, but it is just a little after Noon in the Mountain Time Zone area... So this will be a Noonhour Music Interlude for all those in the Mountain Time States
The song I have selected is by the ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) titled "Last Train to London"
and I hope you all enjoy it... It is a live performance, so full screen, and sound up, folks!
Lyrics:
It was 9-29,9-29 back street big city.
The sun was going' down,there was music all around
It felt so right.
It was one of those nights,one of those nights when
you feel the world stop turnin',you were standing
There,there was music in the air.I should have been
Away,but I knew I'd have to stay.
Last train to London,just headin' out,
Last train to London,just leavin' town.
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you.
Let the music play on down the line tonight.
Background:
"Last Train to London" is the fifth track from the Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) album Discovery.
The song was released in 1979 in the UK as a double A-side single with "Confusion". It peaked at number 8 in the UK Singles Chart. However, in the US the two songs charted separately, with "Confusion" in late 1979 followed by "Last Train to London" in early 1980. It peaked at number 39 on the Billboard Hot 100. In Spain the single was released with the Spanish title "Último tren a Londres".

Thank you, my friend Sgt (Join to see) for posting the official music video of Jeff Lynne leading Electric Light Orchestra as they perform "Last Train to London"
Last Train to London written by Jeff Lynne

It was 9-29, 9-29 back street big city.
The sun was going down, there was music all around
It felt so right.
It was one of those nights, one of those nights when
you feel the world stop turnin', you were standing
There, there was music in the air. I should have been
Away, but I knew I'd have to stay.
Last train to London, just headin' out,
Last train to London, just leavin' town.
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you,
Let the music play on down the line tonight.
It was one of those nights, one of those nights when
you feel the fire is burnin', everybody was there,
everybody to share
It felt so right.
There you were on your own, lookin' like you were
The only one around, I had to be with you,
nothin' else that I could do,
I should have been away, but I knew I'd have to stay.
Last train to London, just headin' out,
Last train to London, just leavin' town.
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you.
Let the music play on down the line tonight.
Underneath a starry sky, time was still but hours
Must really have rushed by, I didn't realize,
But love was in your eyes, I really should have
Gone, but love went on and on...
Last train to London, just headin' out,
Last train to London, just leavin' town.
But I really want tonight to last forever
I really wanna be with you.
Let the music play on down the line tonight."
