Brings me back to Des Moines, Iowa. I was spending the summer in the homes of Vietnamese and Laotian refugee families. I had a little clock radio. Little Jeannie came on the radio so much--i was so excited every time i heard it. It was a summer of Vietnam and Laos in Iowa, LIttle Jeannie and Michael Jackson's She's Out of My Life!
In the summer of 1980 i remember me and my friend went the fair and we meet two girls and one was named Gina and i dedacated this song to her then i remember when she moved away i would always hear this song on the radio and i would think of her and i being together she was as beautiful as this song.
Takes me back to the days sippin on pinnacoladas .... watching the palm trees sway in the wind. Nowdays we are SUFFOCATING in ipods,mobile phones, commercialized music, arabic threats, zionism, corporate meltdown, globalisation - the list of pressures is ENDLESS. Bring back the 80s I say !! I'd give me left leg !!
been listening to the soul soothing lyrics and musical craft that is "Elton John"..for the last two hours..and I haven't stopped crying..I'm building a time machine..and I'm going back to the times..where we jammed dimes and quarters into the jukebox..to hear his songs over and over and over..and I ain't fuckin' ever coming back..thanks for the memories Elton..as pitifully pathetic as it sounds..thanks for the memories..Mike from Canada xo
I could listen to Elton John forever. Let me know if you get that time machine Mike, make sure you come by and pick me up....I've got a roll of quarters waiting and I'm never coming back.
this takes me back to a time when i knew i was happy
