  • It's Elton DMC?

  • SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS - Why is there a live acoustic drummer there when clearly that's a drum patch or drum machine - a snare doesn't make a SNAPPING sound like that.... where's the synth dude?

  • @rlee1976 mate as far as i know it was all a recorded backing track during that preformance. The only thing that is live is elton singing, and( maybe keys but iam not sure on that). its just taped for an upcoming tv show

  • muchos recuerdos 1987 Arequipa-Perú.

  • elton jhon lo maximo,saludos desde arequipa-perú

  • Comment removed

  • the blonde guitar hero with sunglasses(L) NONE

  • How this strange beats are generated?

  • This was aired on September 7, 1988 on MTV music awards from

    LA Universal Amphitheater. Aresenio Hall hosted and this performance

    by Elton was taped and then aired on the show.

  • Eltons Busting Nikes He Is Officially Gangster!

  • Billboard's #43 song of '88. Sir Elton hit #1 AC, #2 pop, #13 rock, in the US. How'd he do in the UK? God bless!

  • @DaveWollenberg Not too well sadly, it should've done well though!

  • Play it bitch!

    LMFAO

  • @GregsynthWizard PLAY IT BITCH!

  • I WILL!

  • Nice Tracksuit Elton :P

  • genial como siempre elton john

  • Great quality clip, the best live version of this song I have herd. Thanks for posting.

  • Amen!..thanks......

  • Kawałek nagrywany prawdopodobnie tóż po poważnej operacji strun głosowych u Eltona Johna,stąd ta chrypa ale i tak jest BOSKI ! Zawsze uważałem go za genialnego artystę, kompozytora i muzyka,któremu mało kto potrafi dorównać a już charyzmą i odwagą napewno nie ! MISTRZ JAKICH JUŻ BARDZO MAŁO !!!

  • What do I mis the good old time, with great music like this.

  • Awesome as per usual, go Elton you rock God

  • Rrjedhja e gjakut duhet të ketë ritëm ...:)

  • Thank you for posting it!!

  • please lyrics :)

  • Great song. Wonder how long it took the backup singers to learn those dance steps. . .

  • "Best" song of Reg Strikes Back.

  • great singer

  • Awesome, awesome song.

    But there's no way this was recorded live. 100% lip-synced.

  • The backing music is on playback, including the piano. Vocals are live.

  • @mcesar84 Correct. This was for a morning TV show I think, it's not a rehearsal. The others are there to make the backing look live

  • What does he say @ 3:13?

    Sounds like, to me, "play it bitch"

    lmao

  • It does sound like he says "play it bitch" Oh Elton!

  • ^5...

  • Great *-* I love this song!!!

  • You got plans to make me one of 45! xD

  • 4 or 5 not 45

  • It's a joke!!!

  • And a damn good joke too!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @sbcruiser2 This "joke" went to number 2 on the Billboard! What did your song get too? Loser!

  • un dios en la tierra ¡¡¡

  • is that Jonathan Moffet on drums?

  • Yep, He toured with Elton in late 1988 into 1989.

  • i really really hate that drummer

  • I've seen him do it solo with just piano and voice, and I prefer that arrangement. All the 80s instrument sounds seem very dated now.

  • I've seen both versions live and love them both! But no doubt that his current sound is very sophisicated and artistic.

  • Love dis song!

  • You know what? In this video...he kinda looks alot like Tom Arnold. I mean, I love this song...it's just so disconcerting.

  • GREAT! Never seen this video before - thx for upload!

  • Always great Elton!

  • most definintly lol
