From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ma-Ma-Ma Belle is a song recorded by the Electric Light Orchestra.
It was taken from the 1973 album On the Third Day. In the UK, the single version had a different mix from the album original and was edited in length.[citation needed] Marc Bolan plays twin lead guitar on the track alongside his friend Jeff Lynne. "Ma-Ma-Ma Belle" also featured on the ELO EP in 1978. In the UK the B-side "Oh No Not Susan" found its way on to various DJs play lists at the BBC unaware that the songs lyrics contained profanity.[citation needed]
[edit] Daybreaker
In the US, the B-Side "Daybreaker" received more airplay than the A-side; thus, "Daybreaker" charted instead.[citation needed] "Daybreaker" was the first of two instrumentals on the LP. A prominent feature of its arrangement was Richard Tandy playing arpeggios on a Minimoog synthesizer.
