Like electric light in a Ballroom scene (One x one lyrics), Like Electric Light Orchestra? The changing chords?

Hi Gang,

I was watching the British serie "Life on Mars" and at the end of the 5 th episode of the season 2, I've heard this tune who rang my bells: "10538 overture" by Electric Light Orchestra, Jeff Lyne's Harrisonesque Band. Don't you think it really looks like the beginning of "The Changingman"? And it's really really strange because the ELO's sleeve for their first LP (Oveture's on it) was almost ... an electric light in a Ballroom Scene or floorboard! (One x one lyrics...)... Anyone knows anything about it? Please tell us the story if you know it... Didn't check the Weller's compi...

Share your dreams,
Give us all the beam we need
like electric lights in a ballroom scene
Goin' on one times one...

10538 Overture, Electric Light Orchestra 1 st LP, 1973.

(Wiktionary) Kundalini (kuṇḍalinī कुण्डलिनी) Sanskrit, literally "coiled". In Indian yoga, a "corporeal energy" - an unconscious, instinctive or libidinal force or Shakti, envisioned either as a goddess or else as a sleeping serpent coiled at the base of the spine, hence a number of English renderings of the term such as 'serpent power'. Kundalini is considered a part of the subtle body along with chakras (energy centres) and nadis (channels). Each chakra is said to contain special characteristics. The overall concept has many points in common with Chinese acupuncture.

Yoga and Tantra propose that this energy may be "awakened" by such means as austerities, breath and other physical exercises, visualization and chanting. It may then rise up a subtle channel at the spine (called Sushumna) to the head, bringing psychological illumination. Yogis tend to attempt this alone, Tantrics in couples, both usually under the instruction of a guru.

When Kundalini Shakti is conceived as a goddess, then, when it rises to the head, it unites itself with the Supreme Being (Lord Shiva). The aspirant becomes engrossed in deep meditation and infinite bliss.

The Spanish Connection strikes again! Manu and Juan M did it!
