Jeff Lynne Song Database

1980s Songs

Welcome to the
Jeff Lynne
Song Database

This site attempts to list and catalog all the known songs ever touched by Jeff Lynne spanning his entire career (with a few minor exceptions), in order of chronological production (or as close as can be figured). It is not a discography (there are plenty of other sites for that kind of information), although one might be able to describe it as a "song-ography" of Jeff Lynne's career.

A note on some of the title variations: A 'take' is a particular performance of a song, of which some songs have different takes having been released, an 'edit' refers to a song where some bits have been removed or rearranged from the standard release, and a 'version' refers to a song that is in some way different from the standard release.

If there are any questions, comments, corrections or complaints (!?) about this database, please feel free to contact me at elofan@juno.com. I welcome your feedback. This is a living document and will be continually updated. Check back periodically for updates. The latest update was done on February, 2012.

This database contains all the songs that were performed, written and/or produced by Jeff Lynne throughout his career. There are, however, a few exceptions to this.

Jeff Lynne written songs performed by other artists, which Jeff Lynne had not previously recorded are included. (For example, Bonny Tyler's Time Mends A Broken Heart.)

Songs remixed by fans and non-officially released (as in DJ service mixes) are not included. As with the live bootleg material, this stuff is widely varied, impossible to keep track of, and quite frankly, some of it isn't very good.

If there are any questions, comments, corrections or complaints (!?) about this database, please feel free to contact me at elofan@juno.com. Thanks!
