dEFROG ON 45 #12: IT’S GROOS, NOT BRUCE

And as long as we’re fessing up to liking the ELO, I had this on 45 too.



FUN FACT #1: This was the first time ELO dropped the “orchestra” part for a song.

FUN FACT #2: “Groos” doesn’t mean anything. It’s a made-up word Lynne used to fill out the lyric. But he has been known to change it to “Bruce” when playing it live, in acknowledgement of the fact that most of of his fans think that’s what he sang in the studio version.

One of these days yr gonna get it right,

This is dF
