Amoreena ~Request

As part of my series 'Covering Elton John's Obscure Songs', I received this request for 'Amoreena'. I am getting back in the groove, posting videos of requests as well as songs from the 1970-1975 albums. Music and words by Elon John and Bernie Taupin, from the LP 'Tumbleweed Connection' (1971)

Hey two questions..first how do I subscribe and second what key are you playing this song in?

[louvregroove]

@treble18dnu I am playing the keyboard in the key of G major, but have transposed down to E to suit my voice for this song.. If you have an electric keyboard, transpose to -3, then play they keys in G..

To subscribe, hit Louvregroove, go to my channel and hit subscribe.

Hope this helps...

First and foremost, this is spectacular!!! This is the best version on youtube and you are officially NASTY at playing the keys. Question for u...where do I get the midi track to this song? I am trying to copy you on the video but it's very difficult because you're so fast...any ideas? Sheet music? All I could find were easy versions but I want the composition that you play...please, if you know anything let me know...well done man

@treble18dnu Thanks for the comments on this. This is my own improvised version of this song....Not sure about midi track. You may want to to check out a website called EltonCafe ( I think that is it); it has very good trascriptions of EJ songs, and I believe this one is one that site. Please subscribe....DSC

Not bad.....not bad at all!

@stegaflaps Gee, thanks.

Great stuff, love this song and love your cover of it. I attempted a cover at a recent gig (please see video response) - but I think there are a few more bum notes in mine!

[H3B3JeeBee]

just wish the recording was a little clearer, would be nice to hear the keyboard with a little more fidelity, a bit tinny

@stegaflaps - Not bad, are you fucking kidding? He nailed it!!

[BeatleEDs]

Great dude, just great

[louvregroove]

@TableAvocado To my ear about the same tempo as the album version....granted, its my own version.
