Electric Light Orchestra - Mr. Blue Sky

Great music share.

Thank you my friend and fellow music-lover with eclectic tastes CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing the music video of Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) performing "Mr. Blue Sky" from Out of the Blue which was ELO's seventh studio album, released in October 1977.
Very upbeat song which is typical of ELO
Hopefully most of you my friend are rain-free this day.

"Mr. Blue Sky" written by Jeff Lynne
Lyrics
"Morning! Today's forecast calls for blue skies

Sun is shining in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped raining
Everybody's in a play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day
Hey ay ay!

Runnin' down the avenue [*panting*]
See how the sun shines brightly
In the city
On the streets where once was pity
Mr. Blue
Sky is living here today
Hey ay ay!

Mr. Blue Sky
Please tell us why
You had to hide away
For so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?

Mr. Blue Sky
Please tell us why
You had to hide away
For so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?

Hey you with the pretty face
Welcome to the human race
A celebration
Mr. Blue Sky's up there waitin'
And today
Is the day we've waited for
Ooorrr

Oh, Mr. Blue Sky
Please tell us why
You had to hide away
For so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?

Hey there Mr. Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Everybody smiles at you

Hey there Mr. Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do,
Everybody smiles at you

[Robotic voice 3x:]
Mr. Blue Sky

Mr. Blue you did it right
But soon comes Mr. Night
Creeping over
Now his hand is on your shoulder
Never mind.
I'll remember you this
I'll remember you this way!

Mr. Blue Sky
Please tell us why
You had to hide away
For so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?

Hey there Mr. Blue (Sky)
We're so pleased to be with you (Sky)
Look around see what you do (Blue)
Everybody smiles at you

[Instrumental]

[Robotic voice:] Please. Turn. Me. Ov-er."
