I dare say there aren't many people in this world that haven't been touched by the incredible Elton John (born Reginald Dwight). He has to be one of the most prolific rock/pop musicians of all time. The fact his career has spanned over 45 years is a feat in itself that few musicians could ever even imagine. A fact that Elton has had hits in five different decades is another feat that I dare say no other musician has probably ever achieved. Thanks for the music Mr. Dwight.
@clditmer1 I think that this upload may have had the audio swapped. The original broadcast is on here, it's easy enough to find, and it's performed live.
Nothing beats this one. Composition brilliant - lyrics are so cutting and brilliant. So sad songs and evocative lyrics like this are a thing of the past.
@getwiththescene Hmmm, I'm not sure about that, He's got 4 thumbs, Uses 2 pairs of drumsticks and he(Animal) can climb the hell outta trees., My favorite EJ song by the way, Takes me back to 12th grade Hollywood high school.
If I only could listen to one song... example being alone in an island... and only could take one song with me... I probably would take this one

One of the top 10 songs ever penned from the era of the 60s through the 80s.

Nice editing on the video, it's sad they had to edit some lyrics on the Muppet show but nice job on piecing it back together! Great song...

Too bad this wasn't a true "live" version of the song. Still great, even if it's just the album version lip-sync'd.
