@hesuckssherules who said anything about driving? i just like sitting in my car listening to the music due to my sound system. i'll agree being sober and clean is your best bet in life, but i don't find any harm smoking a relatively safe plant. much better than alcohol that's for sure. my mentality is that as long you're not hurting anyone, do as you please.
@MrPaulTaper Whilst I cannot the extremely high likelihood that it is about some form of hallucinogen, I would prefer to think that Elton was singing about how he was "high" on love, and that this is nothing more than a strangely worded love song, but hey, I read what I want to read into it to avoid something that I do not agree with, but can do nothing about.
@hesuckssherules That's a good way to stay ignorant and naive about drugs or anything else in life.. at least read into the "drugs" and what kind of affects each one has, then you can decide for yourself which ones are dangerous or not...
This song always brings me to tears. Just listen closely to the words. I think too many people think it's a positive song, when really, it's sort of depressing.
i cant listin to this song with out crying cause my freind loved this sone he was only 18 its almost gonna be a year since he has bin gone but it still feels like yesterday
@KameronMr5 Great, another really ignorant and uneducated comment among millions of others, thanks for your input you truly are an individual... "Faget"
pretty sure his lyrics are saying his wife forced him to get high so he can get away from her and he wont does drugs to be alone. he's gonna be so high you can call him a rocket man
@xblFishflash The lyrics aren't saying that "his wife forced him to get high so he can get away from her and he wont does drugs to be alone. he's gonna be so high you can call him a rocket man"! That's just weird! The lyrics are referring to NASA's flight Apollo 13. I'd try to sum up what went wrong, but I haven't got enough room. Since I don't know how old you are, either you remember first-hand what happened, you remember the movie Apollo 13, or you should REALLY REALLY REALLY watch it!!!
@LoboTheAztec Unfortunately I am unable to make any more videos as every time I try, the syncing on the video is horribly out of place, i.e. I get 10 seconds into the timeline adding lyrics, and the song is about 30 seconds in :/.... Sorry
Regarding ur comment "GOD isn't real" geez that's a heavy statement and I'm left speechless. I copied this statement off the Internet these are not my words. This is what I copied ("I would rather live my life as if there is a GOD, and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and find out there is"). Please don't take this reply as offensive. Cuz right now I'm confused. Maybe u can help me with this statement.Happy Holidays (friend) and GOD bless.
After reading that incoherent argument on this i dont even want to listen to this song on your channel, i don't know and i don't wanna know what kinda troll bollocksing made this happen but your all fags for doing this in the presents of such a badass song... :'(
how come everytime theres song on youtube gay has to come into it at all, like really... should be negative or positive comments towards gay, because positive comments, just strike negative ones so lets pretend hes straight and dont even acknowledge hes gay....
Guys, it doesn't matter if Elton John is gay and this song mentions a wife, he isn't singing about himself. This song is about someone else and he is singing it as someone else.
Yes. Elton John is gay, people! The majority of gay artists (melissa etheridge, k.d. lang, luther vandross) make gender neutral or hetero songs so they can sell records to people who arent gay.
Hey, sorry (Not really sorry) that I had never heard this song until I saw a commercial on TV. Not my fault I wasn't exposed to Elton John as a kid, and now that I heard him, I love him. So maybe you should be thanking the makers of the commercial for showing me and a bunch of other people how good he is.
@jacobusofcourse I love Elton John now too from that commercial :T and I totaly agree with what you said, that commercial is awesme for putting that song on to show the world his great music. But I'm very young to even like him lol I'm only 15, my mom even laughed when I said I love Elton John's music lol.
@jacobusofcourse i've known Elton john for some time now, im a little young so i wouldn't have known Elton from when this song first came out. But i did hear a few songs of his including this one. but when i heard this song on TV i almost jumped out of my clothes in joy.
@15TheNobodies The song isn't about Elton John... in fact, he didn't even write the lyrics. But even if he did, someone can still narrate in first person without actually talking about himself. Most authors that write in first person CREATE the character that does the narration, and that character can be a completely different person. I hope that makes sense.
All those ''I didn't come here from the commercial'' need to sit down and shut up cause they know that that commercial reminded them of a great song so they came to hear all of it sang by a pro. copy and re-post if this what your feeling
