DEF: Electric Light Orchestra “Calling America”
Birmingham, England-based band Electric Light Orchestra has appeared on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart 27 times in their career, with 20 of those singles reaching the Top 40. The last song by Electric Light Orchestra to appear on the chart is also the band’s last Top 40 hit to date, and exactly 30 years ago, that song — “Calling America” — climbed to a peak position of number 18. To commemorate that anniversary, “Calling America” by Electric Light Orchestra is today’s Daily Eighties Flashback.
