Definitely ELO. The song might be Mr. Blue Sky, I'm sure its from the same album if not.

Thanks for reminding me, haven't listened to that in ages! 😵

ok, how about

"All we like sheep..."

Anyone have a handle on that? I'm looking for the name of the guy who wrote it, and what it's from. If it's any help, it was first sung in Dublin.
