I always thought "Telephone Line" was an extension of this from 1971, when they were still officially the Electric Light Orchestra and just getting their feet on the ground --

I listened to an ELO greatest hits playlist from my iPhone on my last trip home from the Keys. I knew most of the words to 23 out of 25 of the songs which was really weird because I've never owned an ELO album. They must have been played a lot on the radio when I was growing up.

trapper189, same here.. I think I first heard ELO on Billy Madison and it's not something I actively played/listened to. Maybe it's something universal, some kind of living thing, or got a LOT of airplay.. I just know that even though I never bought an album, I just can't get it out of my head...
