More of Allison, Please
I'm not crying
Put it in 1,5 x faster π
I think this take has a special merit as do all of Scott's undertakings. However, it is underwhelming compared to the ELO original. Slowing it down as much as it's been done has taken the energy and the breath out of the song. Add in that ELO had amazing harmonies and so much musical complexity in the original recording that I find lacking here.
While Scott and his musicians have done a stellar job, I feel this is a tune maybe shouldn't have been tried with this format. It just falls short of the mark in interpretation. I know there are many here that will think I'm wrong and that's cool. It's all subjective so what the heck. π
Superb lighting on this video. Allison Young looks like she's sunlight personified, complementing the gorgeous sunset background. And good rendition by PMJ, as usual.
I love PMJ so much. They turn great music into such great retro versions. Not to mention all of the musicians and singers looks so happy to be able to do this.
Trivia: This orchestra was illuminated with electric lights.
I want to give this a standing ovation right here in my office by myself. Spectacular.
564 people's skies are gray.

That Y of the last blue sky kills me.
Great arrangement and phrasing! Jeff would approve.
PLEASE do a sultry jazz cover of Toss a Coin to your Witcher!!!!
O_M_G what an awesome stumble upon. O K IM listening !!!!! what a voice!!!!!!!!!
Love it. Redheads r cute.
What a massive song! And what a massive talent singing it! This needs FULL VOLUME!!
Brilliant
This just in from the crew of the Milano:
"I am Groot"
High words of praise from the space based hero and music critic. High praise indeed.
Excellent.
Masterful
My mind always thinks of how to fit these types of songs into cinema and this would just be so great over a montage of a guy who lost someone and just tryna get back to normal after that slowly working on himself and finding new love and relationships
Love the steel guitar!
Sun is shinin' in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin' everybody's in the play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day, hey hey
Runnin' down the avenue
See how the sun shines brightly in the city
On the streets where once was pity
Mr. Blue Sky is living here today, hey hey
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
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
Mr. Blue, you did it right
But soon comes Mr. Night creepin' 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
… Running down the avenue…. She's adorable
Love this version, beautiful voice β€οΈ
