   • Electric Light Orchestra, “Showdown” (1973) In the late 1960s, I was in a group called the Idle Race and this guy called Roy Wood that was in the Move, we used to meet up at the clubs in Birmingham and we got to be pals.
   • Electric Light Orchestra, “Evil Woman” (1975) I wrote this in a matter of minutes. The rest of the album (Face the Music) was done. I listened to it and thought, "There's not a good single."
   • Electric Light Orchestra, “Telephone Line” (1976) I can remember writing this on an old out-of-tune upright piano. I somehow squeezed this song out of it.
   • Electric Light Orchestra, “Turn to Stone” (1977) "Turn to Stone" is one of my favorites I ever did. It's just so primary and simple, but yet very evocative.
