The Bitch is Back

[Jefgg]

This song was written about my boss. She isn't actually a bitch. She is a lazy imbecile who would rather spend the effort conveying a poor attitude than actually doing her job. And she thinks she can scare people because she is a ghetto nigger. That cunt can't scare me. I will throw a party when she gets fired. I hope she and her bastards go hungry after that.

[battlecamtutorial]

In case you are wondering. The microphone that Elton is using in this video is the Sennheiser MD 441U. I have one. Nice mic.

[mp101979]

Reminds me of Jessica Drake!

[promisedeyes]

Is it bad that I want to steal his glasses?

They look so... fantastically superbly awesome.

[ThisSucks461]

Best version of this song in youTube... love the cranked up the tempo

[ksmit]

Really miss one of the best bass players ever- Dee Murray.

[w3stboro]

the real bitch is god, who indeed is back, and it means ELTON JOHN IS GOING TO PAY FOR HIS SINS IN HELL!!!!!!!!!< ELTON JOHN = FAG GOD!

[vipermanhuntx]

Elton John played this when Madonna beat him at the Golden Globes.

[MrTonyroxy]

WONDERFUL



[RJVACC]

Reminds me of a lady I work with..............

[egurzi]

should someone be irate?

[pfootball43]

can someone send me a link of the studio version?

[Andyilmatto]

What if my dad's the bitch?

[reedrichards82]

has anybody seen the video of where he did this song in vegas? it's freaky yet classic...

[WayneYonke]

@cheekyweelass. And the balloons that say " Elton John - Christmas day"

[Hot80s]

You know a bitch when the "bitch" is stone cold sober.

It's a matter of fact.

[pfootball43]

does anyone have a link of the studio version?

[ckyrox66]

People have a.d.d apparently. Get sigh-tracked on every video and talk about shit that has nothing to do with it.

[RebeccaBlacckVEVO]

lmao ea probably named the quest after **the bitch is back*** in the sims medieval **the witch is back** gotta love ea and elton john :D

[Toedrip]

How do you know he's singing about a female

[Iranianjew4life]

vince neil version is better

[genxxxersize]

Yeppers, I'm back baby's, but I prefer "I'm BAD, I'm nationwide by ZZ Top." ;o)

[ciadanixy]

And the WINNER IS!!!!! Casey Anthony, just sprung from Jail.....TA DA!!!!

[andrewsaccount09]

Casey Anthony has just been found not guilty! This is her new theme song, radio stations should dedicate this song to her!

To counter the top rated comments I'd like to invoke Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann please.

[Froleyboy]

If Hillary Clinton used this in her campaign....SHE WOULD WIN!!!

[cheekyweelass]

This had to be around 26th December because of the reference to Boxing Day.

[yousuckishbitch]

sexy mama

[whistleds1]

i dedicate this to joanie

[ooPreacherManoo]

My ex-wife, all the way

[tickledpink2U]

I actually saw this concert tour.........it was awesome!!! He opened with Funeral For A Friend. And this was the last song he did when I saw the concert. He had left the stage and alot of people started leaving then all of the sudden the lights came back up, Elton ran out and jumped up on his piano and started singing this......it was badass.

[wildnites558]

Should definitely be Hillary's campaign theme song for her '12 presidential run

[wardragonprime]

This song brings back memories!

The seventies rule!!!

[TaraGothGirl]

This song was in Gnomeo & Juliet. RATED G.

[groundedsax]

Try to pause exactly on 11:11:11:11 at around 3:25.

[reedrichards82]

we need new highest rated comments

[reedrichards82]

[1019drummer]

Craftamanship..1st clas stuff...epic.

[reedrichards82]

[Hendrucks]

BEST SONG EVER MADE!!

[bottledmagic]

He has such a sexy voice, not just his singing voice but taking voice too.

[ericsrebel]

Hey gr8 footage, but is there a way to get the clock out of the bottom portion?

[feloniuschunk]

What's up with these motherfuckers who want to bash their most disliked politicians via a goddam musical performance on youtube. Why don't you idiots go watch the fucking news and beat your meat?

[london2canada]

katie wassel is singin this on xfactor this week

[TwistedIllumination]

@london2canada Rumor has is she refused, and now she singing Saturday Night’s Alright (For Fighting)... We'll see what happens...

[thelepewguy]

Every single republican undersexed (by your KKK ED husbands and aging boyfriends) witch...dedicated

[mizofan]

Elton's great new album The Union, with Leon Russell, is #3 in the US charts. The bitch really is back!

[myryckyz]

Elton John at his or her best?,,,concert at Hammersmith Odeon, London 12/24/74

[coolbeauty09]

The perfect P.M.S. song! Now back the hell off !!

LOL. Kidding! Good song.

[northshore7x]

I took the paddle for this in Sister Mary's classroom in St Marks School. By starting off the verse.....BITCH....BITCH......­THE BITCH IS BACK............WACK.........o­uch........it still hurts 35 YEARS later

[DAVIDSILVERCA]

SARAH "see you on Thursday" PALIN'S THEME SONG!!!!!!!!!! Though in truth, she's more of a SLAG than a bitch. Takes brains to be a bitch.

[MySallyjoe]

[taz50jaz]

Dedicated to the Govenor, Matthew Barnett, Dr. LIm, and Panama Hotel.

[pvesny]

[pvesny]

I knew this was coming... Richard thanks for thinking of my bitch <3

[bmetz16]

Made in '74... ;-)

[mmcki55632]

74 or 1975

[terry9911]

74 my senior year

[MyRickyz]

Elton why not sung Captain Fantastic in that show?

[thatshackinawsome]

wow this is a great classic video. what year is this?

[eunicesux]

This song is DEFINITELY about my ex-wife. No question.

[carmondiaz]

my boss is gay and likes to tell say he's a bitch and i was like wow elton john.

[earthmother]

CLAAAAAAAASIC

[Spike1885]

how beautiful he is.

[elvisghost100]

I work with a bitch. She just walked in. I am playing this for her.

[thatshackinawsome]

lol

[obbzerver]

Jeezus, did this guy ever have hair?

[Aaberg123]

He had for about 20 min's, back in the 60's.

[bjracing84]

no, never

[coolfunkandthefab4]

yeah, in like 1968

o and now. its red :)

[MaddAlexis]

I love this song

the b**** is back by elton john

[breedsauce101]

HAHAHAHA NICE ONE!!

[greeniem]

i would so eat her like an oyster though

[JackCoxx]

I wash thinking it was Sarah Palin's theme song.

[Carolinahiker]

No, Gov Palin is not some global fascist who wants to micro manage my lfe and confiscate my income, savings and property. The "B" term applies well to Speaker Pelosi.

[nightdragon567]

right on!

[scladyusa]

@Carolinahiker Oh that was a good one!!!!

[ptraiders40]

@Carolinahiker lol

[Mextazectaces]

@Carolinahiker

And Sarah Palin.

[perys8880]

I think that elton wishes he was young again.

[vhopson]

Well, it was more appropriate when she was still in the running. Perhaps it will resurface in either 2012 or 2016.

[Scribe66]

I've enrolled into the bitch college of further bitchification, been too nice too long to too many people.

Just gotta love Elton.

Great video. ^5

[luangu]

4:11- sizzle chest!!

[bryemycaz]

Has Sharon been taking fashion advice from Melina here;) Queen fans will understand:D

[gannipgannop]

Holy christ ! I hear my old-lady's car pulling in, the "bitch is TRULY BACK !! Gotta Goooooooooo........Arghhhhhhhh

[jimmmmy41]

LOL I spilt my vodka down my chest. You owe me a drink;)

[paragon000]

Especially considering she just took Ohio, and it looks like she'll take Texas.

[reedrichards82]

@vhopson have you seen that short little video on here? it's awesome

[flyfysher]

@vhopson

Fuck you!

[VrgniaMailman]

Now THIS is how to play a rock song!!  thanks, Satterthwaite, for posting this one!! Side note: friend of mine had a female dog that forecasted the weather (!!) for a radio station, but when he and his wife left town on a vacation, they put the "bitch" in a kennel, so the dog made no weather forecasts while they were away. When they would return and the pooch returned to making her forecasts, the station celebrated by playing this Elton song!

[72miche19]

This is 12-24-1974 at the Hammersmith Odeon in London. It was broadcast live on BBC as an "Old Grey Whistle Test" Christmas special.

[beatbrain]

"the bitch is back so give her a smack"

[shan45]

I think it's 73.

[SuShIIsYuMmY]

I think this was similar to the Here and There album

[42Ville]

i don't think that's a hair transplant. i think that's a VBR (very blatant rug).

[infinitewizdumb]

I like it.

[backdoorlounge]

cool . he has cash / but he a;nt got me , gerry x

[Cutii3Babii3]

33 years and still the same awesome voice!

[entopic]

aha, didnt know about that.thanks!

[entopic]

he's got more hair today..33 years later, than from this clip..cool stuff

[Saeba1Ryo]

That's because he had hair replacement back in 1990 when he checked himself in for rehabilitation.

[princev11]

i thought he did that in 1977, cuz if u c him in 1976 and 1979 theres a difference...

[mondeo]

Im looking for this concert on DVD or VHS,anybody has it? please pm me! thx

[beatleaholic]

This song is awesome! Reminds me of SOME people

I know *AHEM AHEM* lol

he looks hot at :41 ;)

YEOOOOWW! lol

[TakersSexyAsHell]

His absolute best!

[angelkisses7591]

my ex sent me this video, to get me upset,hahahaha,good video tho

[deliverindagoodes]

rb306is a knobjockey

[BadPianist]

Thank you for that crude and tasteless commentary rb306. On a different note, this show (I think this was the Dec. 24th one?) is probably my favorite Elton concert. I particularly like the way he played 'Your Song' that night.

[FutureAbe]

wow that looks like fun. Is that ray cooper on the drums?

[Satterthwaite0]

Bernie said once for a documentary that he writes by titles.

[clokverkorange]

@Satterthwaite0 I know a guy like that - he'll go to deviantart, find a picture, and write a short story from it, pretending that's the cover image. It's nuts.

[emzypoo3]

i LUV this song! it's Eltonz theme song ;) thanx for posting this! herez some more trivia from "songfacts.com" about the origins of this song-

"Elton is the "Bitch." One day when he was in a foul mood, complaining about anything and everything, Bernie Taupin's wife, Maxine, saw him and said "Uh-Oh, the bitch is back." Bernie Taupin writes Elton's lyrics and thought it was a great phrase. He wrote lyrics around it and Elton put it to music. "

[CrocodileRockx3]

I like how he took off this jacket.. he he

[TheSanityInspector]

It's interesting to see drummer Ray Cooper with a full head of hair, too. He's the percussionist on, among many others, Eric Clapton's Unplugged. Thanks for posting this!

[eltonRey]

long life to king Elton!

[Satterthwaite0]

Well, you have been a very lucky person!

[chelseaboy2005]

You really cannot believe (both lookin and listening) that this is the 59 year old thats still goin strong. Nice reference to my second team Watford who play Inter Milan at the Vic in a few days. Come On You 'Orns!!

[LadyEpur]

I'm loving that outfit this guy's got on. This song is way fun to sing out loud. Too bad I wasn't born quite yet to get to this concert!

[Lindasdc56]

The greatest!!!EJ Rocks!!

[sgtpepper2]

Awesome!!!! Elton Rocks!!!!!
