I Can't Get It Out Of My Head - 1974

- Moog sounds with no hands on moog (near the start)
- Sounds just like the studio recording (these guys are good!)
- real choir (hiding in the next room)
- JL singing with his mouth closed (ven·tril·o·quism)

Hey...At least his guitar is plugged in!

I don't mind seeing a video like this... but ELO did a lot of this
fake stuff in front of audiences as well.
