Holy cow can Elton play piano. That was an absolutely stunning performance.

[@3075bridget]

Elton was utterly adorable and fantastically voiced here.

[@johnniethepom2905]

Centrepoint . How adorable !

[@alexallan-musicaaovivo500]

Has anyone noticed, this is just a " voice and piano" number? No fancy fireworks, dancers, dramatic guitars, nothing....just Elton, his voice, his piano and a tremendous song. And yet, he manages to entice us. That takes a huge amount of talent to accomplish,folks. What a star!

[@solarni1]

Yes What A Star

[@SophiahKoikasWindyQueen]

agree

[@deanronson6331]

Thank you so much for belaboring the obvious and engaging in wooden philosophy.

[@cindyhamilton6128]

Wow I think what talant it's got strength fabulous

[@alexallan-musicaaovivo500]

@@deanronson6331 Any time! It´s always a pleasure to annoy a pretentious snob on KZbin.

[@PeteC62]

I was 14 when this was first shown, and Eric makes me laugh just as much as he did then. When he tried to sit on the top of the piano 😅

[@Basman59]

I was 17 last xmas in UK before emigrating those were the best days of my life fond memories. Great trip down memory lane.

[@aidangriffiths5075]

theres a reason some people are world famous, talent like that. incredible performance

[@SexPistolsRareities]

the funniest Morecambe and Wise sketch ever, the greatest funny men men ever, sadly missed. the world is a less funny place without them.

[@Bruce-1956]

The one with Andrew Preview is classic.

[@camt9967]

It doesn't matter how many times I watch it, never get enough of M & W. Enjoy a young EJ, too

[@richardgaines9450]

His singing ability is SOOOO beautiful------- every bit as masterful and gifted as his piano playing------- WHAT A GIFTED MAN HE IS.

[@glenncambray626]

True, but whose lyrics?

[@MOOSEDOWNUNDER]

What a performance. Halcyon days. Just compare this for a moment with the crap we have today. Reality TV. Good Lord, we watch TV to get away from reality do we not?.

[@janemarett1885]

They were the greatest TV entertainment in the seventies, such a shame reality tv came along.

[@hcrun]

That's just it....there is nothing real about "reality" TV. It's all manufactured rubbish. Utter crap and with no entertainment value whatsoever.

[@promerops]

Elton showing a great gift for comedy here - in addition to his musical talents, of course.

[@garryellison9438]

Whos elton?

[@HSMiyamoto]

Morecambe and Wise had such original characters. Especially about how they insulted every guest star, usually pretending they never heard of him or her.

[@pnynx]

Only his voice and his piano... What a genius..

[@secondstring]

He wrote some beautiful songs. The volume of work in the way of genius musical composition from one man in a single career will probably never be surpassed. Combined with Bernie's masterful lyrics, we were truly treated with magic.

[@brendamilanes8926]

He wrote the music, Bernie Taupin wrote the lyrics. Credit where credit is due.

[@brendamilanes8926]

Ooops sorry didn't see your last sentence about Bernie. My bad.

[@mazda1942]

Irving Berlin wrote 1500 songs with scores being number one hits. I don't think Elton John has beaten that, has he?

[@tonyhaynes9080]

Try listening to the songs that Prince wrote for other artists.

[@ayeitburns1]

Such a good song, and what a great performance of it.

[@GlitzPianoman]

"Sounds like an exit on the motorway!" LOL

[@thehotyounggrandpas8207]

I miss this humble and down to earth Elton.

[@garylawless3608]

I agree, I miss the old Elton - what a talent this man has!

[@thesauce179]

@@garylawless3608 The old Elton was suffering from a variety of crippling addictions.

[@larrycrofttt]

the old elton was a very unhappy person. he didn’t know who he was and he was an addict, as well as bulimic among other things. id say hes in a much better spot than he was back then.

[@annette8957]

Could really appreciate the piano in this version of the song. A lovely performance

[@marionlorimer7506]

Elton has always been the BEST! And will always be!!! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🥰

[@janmcdonald3896]

Such a classic. Elton was good & Eric & Ernie perfect.

[@user-wx9ky9lr1y]

Brilliant post-Ernie Eric and off course Elton just fabulous

[@beverley8987]

god I'm missing something the best thanks for posting this I remember this

[@mchristensen8718]

Gods were in exceptionally jovial, serendipitous, generous and spirited mood when Elton John and Bernie Taupin were born; Gods proclaimed in unison, 'We give them our generous gifts so they may go forth and touch the tenderest part of peoples' hearts so lovely emotions deep inside ascend from deepest part of peoples' soul to transform their lives!' Simply brilliant, were those two young men who continue to touch our hearts even now. Thank you Sir Elton John for your sumptuous sense of humor with your beautiful voice and magical musical prowess transferring (why not, Sir) Bernie Taupin's simply honest and brilliant lyrics to music that has remained timeless forty five years on.

[@RetroSoulGirl]

AMEN you speak that accurately form the heart!! Love!

[@magorzatapiotrowska9739]

They are angeles

[@garryellison9438]

Until he found out he was an arse bandit

[@Lozzlepoppleful]

How can two men waiting for someone to take off their coat and sit down be so funny??!!?

[@RetroSoulGirl]

I don't know it just is I guess it's funny and cute becuase it's Elton lol

[@Dave68Goliath]

You could ask how some other comedy shows are considered funny.. Friends, Bottom, Seinfeld, Absolutely Fabulous etc..

[@geraldinetoughey9622]

It's really hilarious, the innocence and child like goodness shines through. Eric and Ernie - so funny, they were so hard working, their dedication is so rewarding to enjoy for us today. Eric Morecambe, I love you!

[@tonyhaynes9080]

It's like Tommy Cooper walking on stage and having the audience howling with laughter before he has said a word.

[@SophiahKoikasWindyQueen]

lol timing!

[@donnaevans4367]

it's weird everything on KZbin is all eleven years old now. A very young Elton John. Wow.

[@dickybird1963]

I love the way they crack up over the name ‘Elton’.

[@homeone4054]

How gorgeous that Steinway sounds

[@Misano-Red]

Do not be fooled...SOMETIMES, A Steinway is a Yamaha (or whichever piano the artists prefers), with Steinway lettering.

[@vp6941]

@@Misano-Red But Elton used only Steinways during 70s. He actually played steinway until 1993.

[@rosenberg623]

“Its my mother’s favorite, that. If she was out there there’d be tears in her eyes.” “Why?” “She can’t stand me.”

He wasnt/isnt all that short, more like medium height, as was Eric.

[@willhobbs7765]

Gosh could it be that they were consummate professionals who knew their business?

[@Pmfried]

I don't know if this was already commented. But "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" wasn't released until about 1980.

[@antoniormt9929]

FALSE. It was released on 1976 album Blue Moves.

[@carolineh1790]

And then it was released 1st November 1976 as a single.

[@amerkin11]

It was released in 1976!
