  • fucking epic

  • I think it's one of the most fantastic tunes ever. When not even a first class rock band like DT can make it sound more powerful than Elton John's original. Awesome version though. Thumbs up.

  • thanks for upload man..

  • you gotta respect these guys..

  • @danieltpc, that is Derek Sherinian on keys, just like on the recording on "Change of Seasons."

  • I was very upset when Paul Diano left Iron Maiden. I was an idiot.

  • For those grieving Dream Theater, type in, "on the backs of angels dream theater".

    Dream Theater is far from gone. Mike Mangini looks like he is a more than capable drummer.

    Looks like Portnoy is going to get more of a break than planned. Career suicide.

  • This is amazing, when was this recorded? I take it's pretty old for Kevin Moore is still on keyboards, pre-1994 I suppose? Despite the fact John Myung still looks like a kid.

  • @AKtifosi ..Mike Mangini is the new drummer now... I say Dream Theater lives on!! Should be great to see/hear them now...!!

  • @sevensecondsdeep but can mangini write lyrics?

  • @babybotch HMMMM!!! A very good point, my friend....Guess we'll have to wait and see... Wont be the same without Portnoy, but so far they seem like they're (DT) off to a good start with the new cd...see what the second one brings us, eh?

  • @yesrushdt Hey, have some faith in Mike Mangini!

  • best guitar player

  • @AKtifosi Totally!!! Cant bear to think of seeing them without him- never be the same

  • @yesrushdt i hope some day mike will get the chance to play with them again as the old days :P

  • @AKtifosi While Dream Theater may not be the same, I am confident that since the rest of the band is still comprised of the same phenomenal musicians minus Portnoy, they will persist without much if any musical degradation. I too, though, am quite sad that Dream Theater lost the best possible drummer they could ever have.

  • In the middle of all those #1 singles, Elton tossed off one of Top 10 prog tunes of all time. He could whip up melodies in his sleep back then.

  • @AKtifosi Dream Theater will roll on and continue to be awesome. Even without the best drummer in the world.

  • I'd love to hear them cover something like "Rocket Man" or "Bennie and the Jets". But it'll probably never happen...

  • Surely the album version.

  • Derek Sherinian is a sexy pimp

  • So this is the live performance from the Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club Bar in London back in '95. You know what guys, I wish Barney Greenway should've sang this song as well aside from the Damage Inc. song he did w/ DT.

  • everything they do is class. thanks.

  • Hold up, this is a funny question to you DT and the person who upload this video, I see some similarity 3:24 on The Best of Times main melody. I just realize this when I get home from visiting my ancestor's grave last week!

  • 1 person die while watching this video because JP enter in his Killzone Mod and accidently hit the dislike button

  • wow look at JP...he hardly has any muscle!!! Just shows how young he is here ;)

  • this is the basic track that is on the ACOS EP, but before the mayor overdubbing they did to it.

  • good cover, but it isnt a rickenbaker song

    

  • bad-ass bass!

  • great song

  • Wow! I thought a cover of this song would suck, but it was awesome. DT rocked it out!

  • One excellent tribute to Elton John. John Petrucci and Derek Sherinian are stellar here, and they play off of each other perfectly. Would have loved to see this live.

  • Where Can I Find This DVD Performance ???????  A Change of Seasons CD Super covers in this Show

  • Not the same version. The audio verson has him singin WAY higher notes everywhere. It's my first time seeing this video, and I was singing the exact ame version as ACOS (which I've been listening to for years), and noticed right off the bat how different it is.

    Now I feel better, James LaBrie is just a human being like you and me...

  • they were sooooo young!!! :D

  • Its a minute shorter because this doesn't have the long keyboard intro that is on the EP.

  • perfect!

  • Wow, I;m stunned and happy to view this.  DT ROCKS!!

  • one of my favourite DT cover.....

  • i like this video much... thanks alot for uploading it

  • Goddammit! thanks 4 uploading this vid, had been lookin for it for years... where did you git it anyways? Dream Theater once again demonstrating their ability to cover anything, now doing it on Elton john, just amazing!

  • Just when you think you know EVERY band a new one pops up and kicks the shit out of you.What year did this band form and where the hell are they from??

  • Bendito por subir este video ya lo esperaba ver con emocion thanls for this video it´s great song and cover

  • grandes como siempre "Dream theater"

  • Interesting....this isn't the same vocal track that is on the A Change of Seaons EP. Must have done some overdubbing.

  • @Awake79 or maybe it's from another show ;)

  • This is definitely the same version.

  • This one is one minute shorter than the one on the EP.

  • But this does sound remarkably similar to it........

  • who's the keyboard player?

  • Derek Sherinian

  • @GrupoPerfil Derek the best keybordist dream theater ever had!!!!!!!!! I miss Dream Theater with Derek.

  • holy crap! im so happy theres video.

  • me too! *claps

  • I love THAT Dream Theater.

  • Me Too !! DREAM THEATER!!!

    going to see them in one week ;)

  • Is this the same performance as what's recorded on 'A Change Of Seasons'?

  • Pretty much. I think James LaBrie overdubbed his vocals on the ACOS live tracks.. I don't know why as he sounds fine here.

  • @yesrushdt :

    This is certainly NOT the same performance as on the album!

  • @PaddyLake ; It is the same performance. Listen to the miscue at 1:34 and the same small mistake is present on the album.

  • @eggo63 Oops, make that 1:33ish.

  • JP looks better with his Ibanez before than now with Ernie Ball guitar!

  • Not only does he look better, he sounds better also, I think.

  • never thought i'd see the video that goes with this, gotta love the bootleg world!

  • wow are there more from this show? thanks!

  • cool video

    thanks

  • Thank you, I've been looking for a video of that cover ;)
