Good lord, almost 50 yrs later and still better than anything on modern day radio. This song along with Eltons voice are perfect together.

it's pretty refreshing when some bands can almost exceed their studio recordings.

Someone once called Elton a legend. Fuck that. They need to create a category higher than legend just for him. As a musician, writer, performer and piano player, I have been in love with him since 1971 when I first heard "Levon" on the radio.

This kind of music is timeless. So sad to see that no one seems to be able to replicate this kind of talent nowadays. Even the studio edited crap on the radio I hear every day can't hold a candle to this; and this is live.

kyle clyborne Check out Pia Toscano's American Idol version of this song, you'll be properly amazed. Elton is, and will always be, a legend in the music industry.

I was also 11 when I heard this song I was at a boys club event in a watermelon eating contest. It brings me back every time I hear it. I actually won the contest

I love how in the rock opera Tommy he comes out in his platform shoes to sing Pinball Wizard, and can barely move, the superstar!! He was expressing that feeling of being a star I think. You can't move but you keep performing and playing the role. The person disappears within the costume. Love that they had him use his own costume.

And how it "didn't do very well over here," meaning the U.K., I have absolutely no idea. #16, while in the States, a rightful #2. Ah, well, this was corrected 18 years later when he did it with George Michael. (Though I still prefer the CARIBOU version.)

The singers and players on instruments come in before the ark. Isaiah 45:6 “That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else.” 1 Corinthians 1:27 “But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;” Like the Red Hot Chili Peppers sing in Californication: ," the Sun may rise in the east at least it`s settled in a final location". Malachi 4:2 “But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.”
