[raheemullahbjr]

gr8 music

[kd5hms63]

The opening piano intro has more talent encrypted within it than all the songs of lady gaga combined! ~

[hg585]

Eric Clapton!!! yes.

[sbarkah]

...I do like this version...

[fadersfitz1]

Magic!!

[PleschWillfried]

Absolutelly great - the best version

[Akmaral13]

LEGEN........DARY!!!!!!!!!

[lineR164]

Absolutelly fantastic natural sound of this song, much better than orig version of this one.

That´s a pitty of day light, would be perfect for finishing of each rock gig!

[lostintheapplasauce]

Mark Knopfler... FTW!!

[hotstuffandicecream]

Take him or leave him. Love him or hate him. As a true music lover you got to appreicate the TURE TALENT he has given us for decades!

[martinThorn74]

same Gwiazdy:)... cool songs, porywający kawałek:)... pozdro from Poland!:)

[sonnyjayjackson]

Yes

[TheErrol1975]

the swedis artist Eddie meduza hawe done a cover of this song but i think Eddie did the original of this sad songs, Eddie Meduza & New Zeebras - Sad Songs

[TheAlinaLopez]

I really like Elton John, ever I was a child. We washed and painted the house to his music every Spring. I have all his music. All that I could collect. He is an awesome entertainer.

[roseanne74]

Oh my God ... That killer smile at 4:35 ... Throw that in with a rocking version of my all time favourite Elton John song and I am pretty much in rock and roll bliss.

[PrinzP83]

the drummer is funny - he had a goooood time :)

i love it

[gpeddino]

By the way, the musicians are Clapton's band circa 1990 and 1991 (bass, percussion and backing singers, at least). I wouldn't be surprised if Clapton himself suggested the bluesy rock arrangement.

[gpeddino]

Great performance. Elton + Clapton + Knopfler = win.

[alfyhall]

lovely song good lyrics however these guys must get rid of their nasty habits the world is full of woman a man like elton can get any fucking woman he wants fire burn them man repent .mr john go sing to a woman

[syminka]

EJ is the shit <3

[choctawbarry]

[ale85405]

muito bom!!!!

[TheWIELORYB]

BOY

AFRICA

[stepbystepMYway]

Actually livodl it was called Knebworth and was performed in 1989. I know cos somewhere I still have the double cd, but close enough!

[livodl]

This video is so '90s it hurts. I love Knopfler's and Clapton's suits.

[gardenflo10]

i love this guy he is so talented best pianist out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[deviatea]

i bet elton plays this whiles hes gettin drilled up his poofy arseshole, then he sucks his shit of his boyfriends cock, sick cunt :-) as you were........and death to poofter!

[3rddrum]

@deviatea

Are you making an particular effort to be an idiot or does it just come naturally?

[clandscaping]

@deviatea you are out of your god damn mind. people like you should keep their mouths shut before they say something that stupid in the wrong place one day and get put where they should be. in the ground

[pgbruiser]

How cool does Eric Clapton look with a guitar in his hands, a pink suit, and the wind flapping around him like he paid off mother nature.

The dude is pretty cool.

[kd5hms63]

What a grand performance from one the most flamboyant talents of the twentieth century and beyond...eat your heart out Justin Bieber!....you can't compete with Elton

[hawaiianstatus1]

Love me some Elton....Awesome

[TheFunRach]

Wish there was an ADORE button!

[MiguBlack]

This elton is awsome

[setecaveira666]

Dis ís véri gúdi!!!!

[heapner]

Elton john sings like he has a speech impediment.

[deviatea]

@heapner - its the pooftaaaaaaaaaar  gene in the cunt...........

[MyJan63]

eltons homosexuality is not a big deal considering his talent in singing and piano playing which contributed a lot to music industry.. An inspiration to many people.. an Icon....only a few singers can reach his age and still on top and still can rock,,

[freddystinkfingers]

i think he had a little poo poo on his pee pee when he sang this song!

[devuist]

one little slip of elton john and m knopfler has his eyes on him 0:21, very nice atmosphere on that stage :-)

[robertop699]

[Faarque]

fanfuktastic jamming

[CatsEye409]

[55chh]

Incredible!!! Eric smilin' away, pink suit blowin' in the wind.... WOW!!

[082076]

[misterdjin]

Elton John, a super star and with two stars of the guitar. . . Fantastic (Remilton - Araras-SP)

[TheShitHatemenow]

thumps up if u searched sad song

[divadworld]

Dogs and other animals are skinned while they're still conscious in China, Vietnam and Korea for their fur. Over 100 million male piglets are castrated each year without anesthesia, only in Europe. Inhumane methods are used in some slaughterhouses to save money. A few examples of todays animal abuse.

Search for "A Shocking Look Inside Chinese Fur Farms" here on youtube, for an example.. It's time to start helping our brothers and sisters in nature (humans are animals too, for the idiots).

[Ashweedy]

Actually, the guitarist is Mark Knopfler!!!!, Eric's in the pink suit guys.

[xXxlaurenthyxXx]

anyone else here status quo in the beginning..

[AKIMOFFICIAL]

@xXxlaurenthyxXx If You're Referring To Rocking All Over The World, Yeah I Hear It To :)

[000darky]

[waterboy51]

Elton is better live than in the studio!

[cacasarq]

Mr Eric Clapton is just one of the "rest of the band" .. anyway... Elton is great.

[Assasinwhite]

I like hes laughing abit when he looks at the band smiling...:)

[RolandRhodes1]

who is playing the keyboard. He is awesome

[colbybelk]

@RolandRhodes1 Primary or auxilary? Elton and Guy Babylon, respectively.

[CharlieMcCotton]

@RolandRhodes1 Wake up man! The whole band is awesome!

[RolandRhodes1]

@CharlieMcCotton

That was supposed to be a joke :)

[CharlieMcCotton]

@RolandRhodes1 sorry didn`t get it, I was too busy diggin the music :-)

[RolandRhodes1]

@CharlieMcCotton

Heheh . Yes I can understand that . The music is awesome

[michaelrmutt]

Justin...sorry that's not talent...maybe in today's market it is but today is known for only producing shi*...What's good about the current artists? ZIP!

[oaspich]

for love of my God, never compare this boy with the great Elton. He'll needs to eat beans a lot to go to feet of Elton (The One)

[bigiron94588]

Female backup singers are Tessa Niles (foreground, with hat) and (likely) Katie Kissoon (in background at 1:22). What an excellent performance!

[arapata16]

 attn: warnings of wrath) =you and your god are the queer cunts.....

[prmister]

com clapton destruiu tudo!!!!!

[warningsofwrath]

He will be singing sad songs when he gets put in Hell by God Almighty. Repent or perish. ( warnings of wrath . com )

[kd5hms63]

@warningsofwrath Judge not, lest ye be judged....Repent or Perish applies to you also!

[edixavi]

Love Clapton's Miami Vice suite! Excelent combination, Clapton, Knopfler and John, what else could you ask for?

[1111ENDO1111]

[sprintbass]

[rhcppetar95]

[The1stPrinz]

@rhcppetar95 also mark knopfler

[roseanne74]

@rhcppetar95 It's both Eric Clapton and Mark Knopfler ... Clapton is in pink and Knopfler is in orange.

[Rocketman2396]

why is his hair like white?

[roosevelthighschool]

Heard this song at Wendy's restaurant over my lunch hour.

[21at53]

Hey You MFs, You talk shit, do you really know the sit?? Huh? Justin is from a single parent family,He -played git on the side fo mo yo to hep his mom yo to servive!! He took the chance and youtubed....... and was picked up by USHER !!!!!! Don't dis cred You might youtube MF"s............say wat!!! Huh!!!

[jiraiya720]

look at that crowd!!!

[HARDisTHEword]

Elton John picked a wrong title for this song lol. I felt so excited and happy when listening to this song. :o How came it's called "Sad Songs"?

[PeterSpaeter96]

@HARDisTHEword

... because it is exactly about sad songs and the comfort and consolation they can give to you when you might need it. Just check out the original version from 1984 or so and you'll understand what I mean.

And check out his outstanding "Sorry seems to be..." to hear a sad song that really does the trick.

[Sweetgirl55100]

uuh any Guys want to chat I feel sooo lonely

[DangerousMusicProd]

@Sweetgirl55100 lol..

[Notebookstudios]

@Sweetgirl55100 Eh heh...Everyone is like. HELL YEAH I WANNA CHAT!!

[Luarrangel]

Great song!!

[1975overthehill]

performing in front of this ocean of people shows the greatness of elton john

He's so good the queen even thought so she Knighted him Sir Elton John

[tracyeats]

a truely wonderful and talented performer...hats off to you sir.

[wesselpinballwizard]

Why is everybody here talking about Justin Bieber, of course his music is robish. But why whould you ever waste time and comments about it? Just listen to the music!!

[TheIrishman1973]

Fantastic. I love me some Elton!!!!

[TheKitcat4]

LOVE IT>>>>LOVE IT>>YOU HAVE BEEN THERE ALL MY LIFE LOVE YOU!!

[sunflowerofpeace]

Elton rocks...Justin needs to go through puberty...too funny how people keep bringing up this lil kid from ONATRIO,roflmao...all this negative talk serves the same as the positive,ATTENTION..Elton is unique.....it's like comparing Britney Spears to Celine Dion....voice over to accapella..anyway,cheers from Canada

[trellend]

Yes, but what is it that defines that sound, that mo town, gospel, etc something sound. There is a formula, and he's aware of it...

[shadownsand]

EXCITING !!!...no word !

[ssssacdcsssssbonscot]

Justin Bieber--IS SHIT!!!!!

[joeylutelu]

I agree Justin & Elton their is no story line their, can i ask how old you are im guessing maybe 12 or 13.

[andypcamp]

Roland rat is better than Elton John

[FoxyOneON]

jabnhook? With a Nick name like that it's not wonder you sound like an idiot! Elton John is a Legend and always will be, but keep in mind Elton came from a different generation, saying that you cannot put down Justin Bieber by calling him a "PUNK" because he is THIS GENERATION!!! and all the young ladies I know LOVE HIM! So please be nice...and if you can't be nice, don't comment :P

Thank you and Have a nice day :)

[LiangRome]

@FoxyOneON well he's mostly a punk cause he acts like a punk

[jabnhook2]

WOW!!! REALLY??? Elton John and Justin Bieber mentioned in the same sentence??? There is NO COMPARISON!! One is a LEGEND and the other is a modern day PUNK!!!

[24fraze]

There so relaxed and to put on such a great show wow. Eric keeps screwing with Elton the whole song thats good fun. These people are so great. Who in the hell would ever say JB and Elton unless its a joke. PLEASE

[denestud]

a dude with white hair, still sounds awsome, dont care if hes gay or not, elton jonh will be always elton john :)

[RainbowBoi95]

shit, now that's a crowd O.O

[TheSpencr8]

How rude to even mention J.B. while listening to the greatest singer and songwriter alive.... why don't you buy his music, enjoy it and stay out of the Elton John room - no offense intended -just a no-brainer!

[cp80artuz]

¡amazing! Roland RD 1000

[Volgin93]

Mark Knopfler :)

[VaultTec3000]

When evrybody hates Justin Bieber so much , why you talk about him in evry damned comment on Youtube ! He still gains fame when you talk about it so let it be and dont say the B word in front of so great music !

[proudtobefromwv]

@VaultTec3000 Elton John has more talent in his little finger than Justin Bierber will "EVER" have. Just a pretty boy trying to make it. I wouldn't walk across the street to watch him, but I have seen Elton John in concert and I would go see him again if I got the chance. Two and half hours of nothing but his songs, what a great show. Justin will fade into the sunset, but Elton will never!

[loungelizard5000]

@VaultTec3000 I've been saying the same thing. They bring up that stupid B word in EVERY video comment now. They need to just shut the hell UP !

[JonInCCTX]

Good post-breakup song...btw post #666

[wishpeace1]

Justin bieber all over the comments, im so tired of this little boy with not much talent . damn .. he get's to much attention .

[hotstuffandicecream]

If you remember this song, halter tops, bell bottoms, jamaican red, muscle cars, parking on dirt roads, and 8 track tapes then you grew up in one of the best times ever to be a teen. Class of 1975 was my year and songs like this has helped me have memories that will last past 100. Still rocking to the 70's in North Carolina.

[OilfieldSmokeEater]

@hotstuffandicecream  but this song came out in 1984

[MyJan63]

i really love listening to all elton johns songs..a great singer and inspire a lot of people.. thank you elton . you are one in a million..

[stevenchudobiak]

omg, a real singer! very rare these days.

[Adarious]

you know ... the rest of his band seems to have such a 'good' time just getting in the rhythm with the song ... you simply don't see that anymore.

[CharlieMcCotton]

@Adarious so agree with you! simply doesn`t make music like that anymore either..

[SaturnTrack]

Great song, Elton. Is that Ray Cooper on percussion?

[2BeHonestNow]

Elton John is not King of Pop. He is The Master of REAL music.

[GSharon710]

LOVE this man!

[FatherTimeST1300]

Looks like the wind was blowing 20- 30 mph.

Does anyone know where & when this concert took place? Thanks.
