This man is timeless. ELTON IS TRULY ONE OF THE GREATEST!!! I've been blessed to see this man in concert three times..once with Eric Clapton...I recommend if you EVER have the chance to go him, DO SO.. buy the most expensive tickets you can afford you will not regret it. He puts on the most AMAZING performance.. LOVE this song....love them all~~
Greatest piano player of my generation (baby boomer)......and I don't care if he is gay. If you can play the 88's like EJ, you can be anything you want! Rock on, my friend!
hay una persona que ,cuando escucho este tema , ya forma parte de el. Jamás !! por lo visto .. me acostumbraré a que no estés ; Luis AITA .
Si escucho este tema de nuevo, me vienen a mi tus cometarios : quién es ?? es muy bueno!!! yo con 13 años , tu ejerciendo de mi padre , intentádolo .. pero nos unió! porque ¡ ves ! no lo olvido , ni me acostumbro a que no estés aunque ya hayan pasado casi 14 años !
@jramonifyful Im sorry tried to understand and follow what you said something about not forgetting and 14 years but my spanish is very bad written I understand somewhat better spoken but hope what you yearn for you get! Yearn is another word for wish, or to dream of!
It would be so easy for musicians to get carried away with this great composition but these seasoned and experienced guys played it brilliantly. Elton and Bernie's greatest work I reckon. Great music never dates.
Elton John is simply legendary..The version of this song at madison square garden is longer. it's actually righter, and Elton's having fun with it. He doesnt look s happy in this one. But he's still amazing no matter what.
This piece is high at the very top of my favorite crescendo(spell?)emotionally powerful music... with 1812 Overture,William Tell overture and the Who's Tommy Overture (with those great horns)and the lead in to "Cowgirl in the Sand" by Neil Young.Also a good build/fade eruption in "Badge"-Cream. I wanted so badly to hear the lead guitar carve those strong notes but my minds replay took over for the muted cords.Eltons Piano sounded great tho.Iguess that's why I didn't like most live music.
I quite like it slow, it grooves a bit better , but its also good fast. but yer id agree, iv seen better performances of this, daveys guitar playing is a bit dodgy. lol still good tho!
I think I now why davey and the bend are not playing so good davey lost his child in this year and also 9/11 but they still play thats why I think they are the best elton you are my hero
amazing! Thanks so much for the upload...haven't seen this one before....wow, it's quite amazing! Sounds abit low, well atleast for me it is, I have to turn up my speakers up to full notch to hear it. But thanks again!
RIP daddy, I love you anf you will be forever in my heart xx

I love him and this song, but I wonder if he couldn't sharpen this song a bit and make it a bit edgier.

I think the finale of "In Held 'Twas in I" from Procol Harum's Live Edmonton gig could perhaps sneak a look in there too.
Completely agree with you on EJ though!
