A place where nobody dared to go
the love that we came to know
They call it Xanadu
And now, open your eyes and see
what we have made is real
We are in Xanadu
A million lights are dancing and there you are, a shooting star
An everlasting world and you're here with me, eternally
Xanadu

— Jeff Lynne Xanadu (1980)

At the end of the day I have to please myself. And I've made a record to please myself.

It's a livin' thing.
It's a terrible thing to lose.
It's a given thing.
What a terrible thing to lose.

A New World Record (1976)

I've got a ticket to the moon.
I'll be leaving here any day soon

Time (1981)

I like the natural sound of a room. All the rooms have their own sound, so it's a matter of putting it where you like and seeing what it sounds like.

As I gaze around at these strangers in town, I guess the only stranger is me.
As I see what they've done to this place that was home, shame is all that I feel.

Time (1981)
