Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) was a successful Birmingham, England rock music group of the 1970s and 1980s. They incorporated the sounds of string ensembles, vocoders and dub echos into rock songs, thereby creating a very sophisticated studio version of rock. The musical content of ELO songs often went far beyond usual chord structures, mixing pop songwriting with classical romanticism and synthesized sounds. Formed in 1970 by Roy Wood, Jeff Lynne and Bev Bevan (the remaining members of the 1960s rock group The Move). The band used cellos, violin, horns and woodwinds to give their music a classical sound.

Bluebird Lyrics
Electric Light Orchestra
The streets, the signs are pointing all one way
But you dont realize just what they say
You may fight, you may run, you may know what youve done
It makes me feel so sad to think what I mightve had
I watch the stars, I watch the sun, now I watch for anyone
But its only make believe
You work, you work, you work so hard and then
Someone, someone will come around again
You may think its for real, but you know how you feel
The places that I go dont feel good anymore
I see it all rainbows in fall I see her face upon my wall
But its only make believe
Fly away, bluebird fly away for me
To a place somewhere far across the sea
Fly away, far away, dont look back, go today
The waves that crash upon the sand
Another place, a far off land
And every day, I have to stay, but you are free
You could fly away-
But its only make believe
