Track 5, "Heartbreaker", from ELO Part II's self-named album.

I don't really have much to say about this track, other than I think Bev Bevan probably could have a better done writing some more thoughtful and mysterious lyrics. Still, there's nothing wrong with a simple, direct message.

In 1988 Bev Bevan, the lifelong drummer of the band ELO, asked Jeff Lynn asking to make another ELO album. Jeff Lynn said no, so in 1989 Bev Bevan recreated ELO without Jeff Lynn under the name ELO Part II. In 1991 the group released a self-named album, Electric Light Orchestra Part II, that attempted to get back to the early/mid 70s ELO sound with mixed success.

Not the biggest fan of ELO Part 2, but this is definitely the best song on the album.

I like this song, a good driving rock out song.I was blown away when I first heard it. Not exactly like ELO, but still good!

This album was listenable, but Moment of Truth was better. In fact, it took a couple of listenings for MOT to grow on me. They didn't make many albums.

As much as I will always admire what Jeff Lynne did with the original Electric Light Orchestra, I'm happy that my musical taste isn't governed by hero worship like some commenters. I love the sound of ELO Part 2, and I LOVE this song!

Every album needs its fillers, and it's always hard to tell what tracks fans will like in particular. In the CD I wrote a couple years back, I received quite a few surprises when I got feedback from other artists in which songs they liked and didn't like. Still, I agree, this song doesn't compare to the handful of gems on this CD, or probably even Jeff Lynn's worst tracks from New World Record of Out of the Blue.

You're right, it wasn't Jeff Lynn. Don't know why I put his name in this one, just a brain fart moment that nobody informed me of. There's probably others in my video descriptions too. But I do disagree that this is a shit song.
