"Xanadu" Is a Prog Related album. But in the PR section of Forum we don't more be able to introduce Polls.  So I introduced it here (always it can be moved...). 

The Question is simple: "Which songof ELO section of "Xanadu" preferred?"


I prefer "Don't Walk Away" because, for me, it is the prototype of Prog ballad!!! 


P.s.: For Olivia Newton-John.. nothing against, is capable...  But I prefer...  It have it understood, no?

Olivia was the fairy of my childhood. Her music stinks, but she's so beautiful... Moves me as much as Agnetha from ABBA (although the last's music is great). From Xanadu I vote ofr I'm alive. A simple and great pop song.

boy, are you in for trouble, mand.root – EVERYBODY, incl. j.lynne, hates that
album but your bravery deserves an answer: i'll go for “all over the
world“ because the sick doesn't quite get full
progressive rock and rural tranquility don't match. true or false?

I like both Xanadu and Don't Walk Away equally... Amazing songs.

I voted for I'm Alive, but Olivia had the best song on the album with Suspended in Time.

I went to see "Spamalot" Saturday night and in the playbill it had an article about how they are making "Xanadu" into a broadway musical.  Haven't had a chance to read the article yet, though.  (By the way, Spamalot is a riot!)
