@ NiaAmor..If thats REALLY you..that must have been AWESOME..do you ever hear from him since?..just wondering..He's going to be playing up in NY at the SPAC in late Sept I think its the right date..Hope to be going with my BEAUTIFUL wife..It will be ONE of her gifts as we celebrate 25 yrs together...I hope he puts on a great show like he did at his 60th birthday..
his vocal ability is not that great anymore but he plays like he's still coked up. A madman! And nobody give me shit. I know well enough he got clean in 1990 and he voice got deeper each year after that.
This video was edited for TV, that's why it might be slightly different to the actual event. He must have sang this at the concert because he's wearing his 60th birthday suit same as on all the other videos posted on youtube.
This is one of my favourite Elton video's. It's so great to see all those people (And David!) dancing and... wow! Elton is the king! Best version of this song I've ever heard.
Jake Shears, the lead singer of the Scissor Sisters... they are an American group but very popular in UK.. if you like synth rock, disco, glam.. check them out.. Elton helped them write a song from their most recent album
This song should be called "HAPPY SONG", because everyone is sooooooooooooo happy when they listening to this song, they are even dancing........I don't see no one is crying...........LOL
We were at the show that night. As great as it was, that crowd noise at 3:25 was just some creative editing done by the recording studio to enhance the video. Watch the DVD and you'll see differently.
Talk to people who do the editing if you know any - They're told to enhance the video performance in places. If it's easier for you, explain why at that point in the song, the crowd is "heard" going crazy, but on video you don't see any arms waving, people cheering, or hands clapping. Even you could see the mismatch.
I have seen the video! I have the video with his autograpgh on it! why the hell would they put cheering in the middle while is is playing? and yes hands are flying all over the place!
I've seen the video and was there in person. If the crowd actually had gone nuts in the middle of that song, it would have been a first. Why didn't the same crowd response happen on the TV version, hmm?
who is the moody geek throwing a strop at 0.50 ? There is a great clip of him trying to dance, its in the song 'saturday night's alright for fighting' which is coming later !
Piano genius!
