7. Rocket Man - Elton John - Live in Hyde Park September 11 2016

[@aren4319]

Elton's voice has grown with him, it's still as amazing as ever.

[@St1llor]

You’re pfp is the best thing ever 🤣

[@ogiecruz8063]

Elton John is one of the greatest songwriters in music history. A true legend. Long live Sir Elton John

[@jamesolson6613]

ogie cruz he doesn’t write the songs.

[@prOflod]

He wrote this one.

[@pietrolavaneve5392]

prOflod he didn't

[@prOflod]

@peitro lavaneve Yes he did, he co-wrote it with Bernie Taupin.

[@louis9446]

Except Bernie mostly wrote the songs

[@calebcopas9982]

Idk why people are calling this a bad performance. He obviously can’t hit the high notes anymore but he still sounds good. People saying it’s atrocious and crappy are absolutely crazy.

[@CanuckSoldier3]

I just watched '77 performance of this and he didnt hit the high notes then either. Most dont live, its a way to preserve the chords.

[@Someonesaidthis]

Any Elton John performance in person is a good one.

[@Spamus]

Honestly, I think he sounds better. His voice is much richer now, and full of life and experience.

[@cla247]

exactly the dude has gone through surgery that even changed his voice and he’s pretty old so cut him sum slack

[@arynickson]

I think that he still sounds great!

[@saucysimpson259]

His voice has just gotten even better with age

[@rosswhitaker1200]

Was just saying to myself how his voice has completely changed, yet they're both so incredible.

[@tagmstr02]

Like a fine wine.

[@smokesmoke8311]

Legit yea

[@connorjoseph6565]

Um, no. He can’t hit literally any falsetto notes anymore

[@saucysimpson259]

@@connorjoseph6565 be quiet nerd. You don’t belong here

[@axeltholen7870]

The percussionist is having the time of his life

[@rhysm.5915]

0:59 That is friggin powerful. Better than the falsetto in the original.

[@Nancy-rq1lu]

Rhys M. I completely agree!

[@meadowjones7879]

i agree

[@fanaticaldueling6337]

Am I the only one who loves his new voice?

[@bocobob]

Just Musicians yes you are

[@fanaticaldueling6337]

bocobob jesus how? It sounds much more emotional then his previous voice. And its still very good in terms of voices. He may not sound the same but he still sounds very good. Watch him live now if your willing to spend some money. He was amazing

[@bocobob]

Watch Elton John Rocket Man live at Royal Festival Hall 1972 after watching this video and then maybe you'll see what I'm saying. Back then it was raw emotion , now it's just going through the motions. I get the fact that he's not a young man and things change, but it's just an observation. He's still great of course.

[@fanaticaldueling6337]

bocobob I just watched the video. I still feel this one has more emotion. I also like his volume in this one, it's much louder and bold. I personally didn't like his voice from 1985-1993. In 1994 when I heard him sing "The Circle of Life" that gave me hope in his future. But now, in my opinion, he got his game back. I love his lower voice and I love how he modified the songs to fit it.

[@splash5427]

Just Musicians I agree

[@jarvisfamily3837]

This was the first Elton John song I remember hearing as a teenager growing up in Cleveland back in the early 70's. I was a geeky sci-fi fan and this song really hit home. I still play it on the piano at home when no one's around except the dogs, who don't care how badly I sing it. :-)

[@jeungkabkim9757]

친애하는 앨튼존 의 당신의 음악은 우주와닿은 아름다운 music E V O L,

[@SageOfHeaven]

Fellow can't be expected to be able to be long winded enough for this song anymore, its amazing he still can sing like that. Who cares if he can't take all the high notes or hold the breath too long. What he cannot do with his voice, he does with the piano. Did anyone even take the time to listen and watch those hands? The man is a legend. Sir Elton John, one of the greatest of our time.

[@ryanbardwell5641]

I miss the younger Elton..but, I get it. We All get older..God bless him and ty for the music and fun memories.

[@j.wat.3437]

The greatest entertainer ever!

[@bluray2012ify]

Reggie Hammons, you are right. No one sings like Elton John.

[@theSnowXRIDER]

NOTHING TO DO WITH FREDDY MERCURY....

[@excelerater]

ullshit and experience is all it takes, right

[@benjaminminer5645]

Reggie Hammons Garth brooks.

[@alexandervillasenor9703]

Michael jackson

[@royataylor1969]

One hell of a singer. His songs remind me of a kid growing up in Colorado in the 1970's.

[@maximillianforrest5284]

I was at the front row some twenty odd feet from Elton during this performance...and it was an AMAZING experience.

[@maxwellrigomoraes582]

Who's here in 2024?!

[@woutdesmytere4076]

The outro is gold.

[@susubear13]

Goddamn one of the best performances I've ever seen

[@josecampos4823]

shame his old man voice fucked up his career the only reason he can still do concerts cuz of his past

[@carlwheezer2766]

Beefy I’m not to keen on rocketman with this voice but I love tiny dancer with this voice it’s so good

[@satyabratamishra4670]

@@josecampos4823 fam the diving board and the union was a masterpiece would put it up with gybr and madman across the water. i personally say the diving board is the new tumbleweed conncection. its pure genius. shame his songs are not being played in the radio these days especially his new songs. u shd give his new songs a listen. its been a treat for me.

[@JeffFreemanPresents]

The world doesn't have many artists of this calibre. Very few indeed.

[@Sn0wman5]

The percussionist is in its own world. :D

[@briangoodfellow3681]

Elton is still great after all these years would live to see him live never had the chance

[@paulfranklin8636]

I've seen him live twice, this was the last time....this I watch...being there was so much better

[@lavatube8060]

JUST WATCHED THE 1972 VIDEO, and it's interesting to compare the differences. One where he sings it publicly for the first time, the other where he's been singing it in concert for 44 years. Great song either way...timeless.

[@Mark-on2mt]

Amazing brilliant gets better and better

[@mikeoxmall3431]

I often wonder if Elton was coming out in this song

[@dazsin]

Bloody hell. How good is this. Amazing

I'm in awe of how beautiful this is ...

[@danielepinna7494]

Thanks buddy, thanks for being close to me when my father was passing away, thanks for giving away these emotions. I love you.

[@marcpeukert6405]

It's really interesting to see how his performance has changed over the decades. A lot of the higher notes are sorta left out or changed and I think that kinda helps mix it up a bit. I honestly don't get the people who think he's a shitty singer now

[@jackfahey7459]

I like how he has ramped the piano up aswell. It more than makes up for a change in voice.

[@carlosgarciamusic953]

There are things that are timeless are indestructible. Even all of the dark forces coming at you from all directions will miss the real target, for they are looking for their own demons, and it is through that ignorance that they will eventually miss the essence. You had it for short while, but you lost it in an instant even before you noticed, the kingdom that could have been yours, departed you, for you betrayed yourself. There is only self, and this is something that til this day you are yet to comprehend.
