Electric Light Orchestra - On The Run Lyrics

I love this song it’s awesome and works well with any song in your mind.🌬🌬🌬🌬🌬🌬🌬🌬

Me encantan estos tipos,q grandes son,Bravo Jeff...

Never understood the hate for this album within the ELO-fandom. It's a masterpiece and my favorite ELO-album.

Aaahh yes another great tune from discovery....honourable mention to kels bass work😎😎😎

let's get up and dance!!!!!!

Oh... Go on then 😊

love this music so much...

This right here is why discovery is the best. ELO isn’t good cause of nostalgia, hell my dad was a kid when this stuff came out. ELO is good because it has catchy tunes and a distinct sound to it. No other artist has what ELO had. It’s amazing

Great end to a great album!

Great end to a great song, but this was not the last song on the album, Don't Bring Me Down was ;)

RaRaRahhhhhh~

Would this song be considered disco

NightIsRight Probably not, although it’s some great pop rock!

tears in eyes. beautiful

Correction Aladdin was purportedly east Asian not “oriental”

Stay aiRRound..

Great song for running.

Hey guys, if you're ever driving and being directly chased by the police, you MUST play this song in the car. If you don't, well then... that would be the real crime here!

That comment right there just won you the internets son!

Run around

👍🎶

OMG the memories!

ち-ぷとりつく

the album Discovery the best of ELO

CARLOS PAEZ NO FACE THE MUSIC OR OUT OF THE BLUE

My favorite band in scool yers

The end of the song absolutely made the tune: a great use of string! Sadly, Jeff was in the process of abandoning the strings, and on Discovery we hear the results as much of the album was sub par.

It's all relative. There's plenty of great material on this LP and it was a pretty influential synth-pop record.

Esta cancion mejoraria mucho cantada por Ana Torroja.

Estos es la voz de los Beatles con el ritmo de Mecano.

Heard it on Pandora yesterday after decades!! So now Im here!

Wow! What instruments did they use for this song?

Apart from the usual strings, Richard Tandy was behind his shiny new Yamaha CS-80 keyboard, state of the art at the time.

@JBofBrisbane just said the drum Loop for the song is the same as in Don't Bring Me Down except he compress the hell out of it

Jeff Lynne - Lead and backing vocals, Les Paul guitar, acoustic guitar
Richard Tandy - Yamaha CS-80 synthesizer, piano
Kelly Grocutt - backing vocals, bass guitar
Bev Bevan - drums

Mik Kaminski and company: string section

Jeff are one Genie !

One day I'm making an action movie and I'm going to fill it with ELO songs!

I'd make any kinds of movie with ELO songs on its soundtrack.

"Discovery" die beste "Scheibe" von ELO ich liebe sie !!!! und selbstverständlich gehört noch "Time" dazu! <3

This is so nice, feel like heaven when i listen to this Song..

Run around gotta go gotta run around.

Run around gotta go gotta run

EPIC !!

Pinball.

Caminhando ate a escola ....tantos sonhos

❤🎶

tremendo tema!!

Whatever I do, where-ever I go, the same afterglow Is keepin' me low, don't wanna lose it, But don't wanna stay here too long. They see you go by, I tell you no lie, You're up in the sky, make everyone cry, Don't wanna lose it, but don't wanna stay around here. [CHORUS] I'm on the run again But it's like what they say when it happens this way You gotta do it again and again. I hear them talkin' and they go on and on, they think that Nothing is wrong, and so they just carry on about you, Don't wanna lose it, but I gotta move out of here. I see them waiting there for most of the day, I known You asked them to stay but they just won't go away. Don't wanna lose it, but I gotta do it again. [Repeat Chorus] I know it ain't real, but when you are near, You're saying the things that I wanna hear. Don't wanna lose it, but I gotta do it again. [Repeat Chorus]

Jeff said this is the same drum Loop for Don't Bring Me Down he just compressed it

Fantastic ending to this tune. Makes you want to play it time after time. ... run around got to go, got to run around Womannnnn .... love it

It is my favorite part.
I play it again and again.

ELO es simplemente fantástico, su música indiscutiblemente es arte en su mas alta expresión. Jeff eres el mejor.

Dugez TV indeed

Richard Tandy ¡fantástico! El tecladista de la banda es una cosa fenomenal en este tema!!! Te recuerda a los sonidos de los Arcade Games. Richard junto a Jeff fueron un gran duo de tecladistas!!!

@Nombre de la cuenta de marca jeff es un genio para componer musica pero no pudo haberlo hecho sin richard ni los demas

memories - love it ! cool post. thx !

My fav ELO song from one of their best albums!

Jeff Lynne said the drum Loop in this song is the same drum Loop in Don't Bring Me Down except he compressed it way down to change the sound and that he wrote and recorded the whole song by himself and the studio and he said he never said Bruce in the song it was groose just a word he made up as the time Mark in the song he was recording and then left it in as Bruce later due to powers that be

It was also the first ELO song to not use strings

nice song

graphical mode of musically to say: running!

my Favorite

I love the end of this song. The whole album was great, ELO is one of my favorite bands!

Van Halen 5151: Inside!

Yeah brother this song reminds you the arcade games for the sound.

This is great

видео 1979 года.давайте серьёзно кто это.

really gotta go and buy a needle for my old turntable

@Elderzeth
no, not yet, will try first other options

+Elderzeth Dear YouTube user, finally I got the needle for my 30-year-old turntable through a local store. It works really fine and omg the sound is like no other! Now I can listen to my old records again. I feel very happy and I wanted to share it with you and say thank you again, for taking the trouble to encourage me and try and give a helping hand. Some things take time :)

Hah, you remembered this post!

*stylus.

Cassete master race.

Como jamás se hará... :-/

Que banda tan espectacular buena music
