You know what's weird? She has some of the best Jazz club singer arm movements around, just incredibly expressive and perfect for the moments in the song. I assumed she had been doing it for many years to get that good. But her other videos are generally her with a guitar ... and she is ridiculously young.

The ELO original is the last song I played on my Radio Shack (Technics) turntable with Optimus 1-B RS speakers the last day of summer before my senior year in college. It capped off a summer of transition in which I cut my long hair, shaved a Lasse Viren beard, got contact lenses and became a new young man determined to fulfill my potential as a runner at Luther College. This song's optimism with a touch of sadness was the perfect way to wrap up August and go get it the best I could. A week later I'd fallen in love at first sight with a green-eyed beauty who I met at an RA retreat. I rose from seventh man on the cross country team to second man and helped lead the team to an NCAA D3 second place at nationals. That love affair carried me through 800 miles of training, lasted another year or so and imploded after we tried to keep a long distance relationship going. But the innocence of this song sticks with me to this day, and this version captures an older man's appreciation for an earlier time. Nicely done.

Hey there Mr. Blue (sky) We're so pleased to be with you (sky) Look around see what you do (blue) Everybody smiles at you

Wow! Talk about making a song one's own! Jeff Lynne would be (and likely IS!) very pleased with this fantastic performance. Absolutely stunning work and, as I'm an ELO fan, lots of fun to listen to. ❤🎶👍🏼

Beautiful performance by miss Young. Great.

i been fallowing Allison for a around a year now. always thinking: "i don't understand why PMJ not doing a video with her she is the perfect singer for them!" happy to see i was correct. hope this will get enough views for them to invite her again :)

Just goes to prove that a well written song can be performed in almost any genre. Very well performed.

@MusicMadMaurice I see what you mean. Very good version.

Wow, this is a electrifying Version (without the Electric Light Orchestra) of a genious song! But with another super accompaniment, very well arranged! Perfect sung! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Two years later, still fantastic in every way. Listen to this every day.

You would have been a huge movie star in the forties, but glad you here now for us. You are such a joy.

I used to say she was adorable but wow, she is straight up gorgeous!

ELO’s song is one of the most happy upbeat songs. I’m trying to find any happiness in this version.

"Living Thing" "Telephone Line", "Midnight Blue" and a dozen others of E.L.O.'s are better than "Mr. Blue Sky," in my opinion. It's good, but overrated.

Such a depressing feel for the happiest song ever written. This is such an amazing version

She is genuinely amazing...she has a stellar voice, presentation and stage presence. God bless her with continued success and good health. She is what we have been waiting for...someone with talent, personality and class.

Allison Young is a force of nature, a dryad, a demi-goddess of a chanteuse.

I met her on KZread “Yesterday “ this morning @4:22 I have ❤listened to all her tunes …next week I’ll buy some of her records.

Слушаю в 1000й раз,и, не могу отрваться. ЭЛИСОН !!!!!

I’ve been hooked on Allison since her first recording (Crazy) with Josh. She never disappoints.

To be totally honest, I wasn't going to click on this until I saw Allison Young in the title. She's easily my favorite singer.

When a song has enough substance to be reinterpreted at this level you know Jeff Lynne wrote a great one. Scott Bradlee's arrangement is superb. It could be the first act closing number in a Broadway musical. For me, the setting and attire for the performers lends a comfortable formality to a shared moment celebrating the return of blue skies after a long period of rain. The instrumental performances are excellent and create a structure, texture, and space so lush that a singer of Allison Young's talent can take us on a walk through its verdant landscape as a fond companion and guide. Truly a great performance. Thank you.

Oh my life! This is such an amazing interpretation. The final verse brought tears.

It feels like rainy Friday evening with a cup of hot tea

Allison's beauty is exceeded only by the quality of her voice. She's the whole package.

this cover should come with a warning for sufferers of major depressive disorder. It blasts you with so much positivity and happiness you might feel like you don't belong on the same planet as the artist and band. great job, I'll listen to it again when I feel better, thanks for sharing this

I absolutely love it when a cover breathes new life into a song. This is an excellent example.

The part where she sings 'Mr. Blue Sky please tell us why you had to go away for so long. Where did we go wrong?' reminds me of a post-apocalyptic era where a nuclear fallout covered the earth's atmosphere in dense clouds and the sky was no longer visible and people can only glimpse it very rarely. And when they ask 'Where did we go wrong?' Its rhetorical and satirical at the same time, as if they were begging for forgiveness for what they've done.

Reminds me of the west coast fires that filled the air with smoke across many states. The sky was gray, and red and orange the closer you were to the fires, for many days. It's still gray outside where I'm at now.

Please invite Allison to come back. She is fantastic!

She’s gorgeous.

It is a most beautiful song! I didn't know this song before. All is important and actually now. Mr. Blue Sky is a symbol of peace of all the world. I want to see Mr. Blue Sky every day. Thank you.

This version makes me feel free and magical. Feelings I only have once in a blue moon. It made me cry.

Why on Earth are you not wildly famous? You are such a gift!

This was one of my husbands favorite songs

One of my all-time favorite songs, and you just took it to a beautiful, different place.

A very big fan of Electric Light Orchestra and an admirer of Jeff Lynne here -- I adore this version.

PMJ and Allison Young - a match made in heaven

This is real music. It transforms my room into a luxurious place. The voice fills the atmosphere, imbuing it with its charm...

While I’m not crazy about a slow version of this song, I think I’ve fallen in love with this girl

really clever to time the "mr night is creeping over" with the actual sundown. and amazing performance all around

PMJ: So long Me: Soooooo loooooong. I love you guys

I can't believe I JUST discovered this phenomenon! I love, through Scott Bradlee's translations, that the lyrics of songs we all know and love seem to take on a whole new meaning and life. I really adore this version of this song. I am SUCH a fan!

Beautiful.
