I don't go out of my way to listen to them, but I often hear their work on Sirius XM's "The Bridge" and enjoy it. I can't name any songs of the top of my head.

Can't get it out of my head

It's funny.  I used to hear ELO on the popular radio all the time in the 70s and early 80s, then they went away for a long time.  Then, starting in about 2001, they came back with a vengeance.  I couldn't walk into a Target or Wal-mart without hearing Evil Woman or Sweet Talkin' Woman or Blue Sky.  Even Strange Magic was popping up in elevators and shopping malls by about ten years ago.

You probably hear them all the time in certain venues and just don't realize it.

That's one of my favorite songs.

I'd love to see a light show at a science place with their music. They do it all the time around here with Pink Floyd, why not ELO?

"Calling America" is even better than Telephone Lines in my opinion.

"Hold on Tight" is my favorite though.

I like the 70's a lot overall and ELO are pretty good with a host of catchy songs. Like Supertramp who also has a good deal of nice songs, I definitely dig their instrumentation and overall spirit.

Sort of a nice, fond, enjoy in the background band for a couple songs or an album side but not one that draws me in obsessively like Roxy Music, King Crimson, David Bowie, or Kate Bush.

Freedom Band, but I'm not their biggest fan by any means.
