Elton John - Crocodile Rock REACTION VIDEO

[@Scooterboi60]

Hi, the lyrics do reference Bill Haley and His Comets song Rock around the Clock which came out in the 50s which is the era Happy Days is themed on so that’s why it sounds like a 50s song. If you saw the Lion King then you would have heard Elton. He wrote the songs Can You Feel the Love Tonight, Circle of Life, Hakuna Matata and other songs from the movie with Tim Rice.

Elton John is an icon. A musical genius.

[@joeterp5615]

You are just too irresistibly cute reacting to this! Elton John is a MAJOR rabbit hole to go down! He is a musical genius - one of the greatest composers of popular music of all time! Good Bye Yellow Brick Road, Your Song, Rocket Man, and Daniel… are among my favorites. I’m seeing him perform in DC in September - bought the tickets over a year ago!

[@pamagnolia]

Elton has sooooo many hits and great songs Tasha!! Three of my favorites are Don’t let the sun go down on me, Someone saved my life tonight and Tiny dancer!! But are scores of others I enjoy! Super star!!

[@pleutron]

Tony Danza is a great song 😂

[@conniekat3424]

Tiny Dancer is my favorite!!

[@michaelchilcott210]

I have seen Elton live over here in the UK 4 times i have followed his music since 1970 when i was 11 years old brilliant reaction

[@kennethhaven7098]

hey Tasha one of the few songs from Elton I really like. I'm 78 years old and still rock out to this me and my wife up and rocking around the room

[@bwilliams463]

Probably my favorite Elton John song; though when I was younger, I was baffled by him cramming the entire word 'crocodile' into a single syllable.

[@cathybrookeburt2616]

Elton is a beast on his piano, just like Billy Joel is. Great performer!

[@cynthiacampbell7433]

I was 9 when this came out. My uncles would play it when we went to visit my grandpa

[@dansavoie5087]

"Flashback in Time". What's significant about remembering good times is having them to remember. Not everyone does. I know I was lucky in "Life" and I never forget that. Fun reaction by you. Very energetic.

[@scotthuish67]

You can't help but dance to this one!

[@2CheekyRabbits]

I smiled the whole time, watching you discover and enjoy one of my favorite songs from childhood. I was 8 years old when it came out. Wore my dad’s headphones while playing the LP.

[@terrybaby4vr]

One of the great classic songs by Elton! Gets you up wanting to groove! 🕺🕺🕺

[@pamagnolia]

So great to watch you enjoy this so much!! 😊

[@UniversalBlackRocker]

Good morning buddy! This is a great way to start my day off with some Elton John! Everytime I hear this song, I always seeing Elton performing the song with The Muppets LOL! Elton has a lot of classics. And also, you're on point on Rock Around The Clock being a Happy Days song because they used it as a theme for the first season (or first couple episodes) before they changed it. Thanks buddy for making my morning better. 🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽

[@Nana_Reads]

It’s such an infectious song , glad you did one of his fun ones!

[@jjbklyn4260]

Should be noted that Bill Haley's follow-up to "Rock Around the Clock" in 1956 was "See You Later, Alligator (After a While, Crocodile)"

[@waymore4472]

Loved the reaction!!! Lord I haven't heard that song in years!!! Thank you Tasha!!!

[@cynthiacampbell7433]

Wow didn't know you haven't reacted to Elton. I would've suggested a long time ago lol. LOVE IT.

[@leswinkeler4553]

Album is full of great tracks.

[@conniekat3424]

This is a classic...always reminded me of something my parents would have danced to at a sock hop!

[@BrittanyHolcomb1]

I did that dance in Jr high and high school. I'd probably stroke out doing it now.

[@kennethw7831]

The best concert I went to was Elton and just a piano. Concert lasted 3 hrs no breaks.

[@itchyandred4131]

What a fun song ❤️✌️

[@davidsimon9303]

Whatever year it came out, i's based on 1950's music

[@allmirth1583]

What a blast! Fun reaction to a fun song! Love it

[@henningkallerhoff3967]

... even it was not the Muppet Show version which is really awesome and funny :-)

[@hippiejoe969]

You so much fun to watch checking out songs for the first time because you have so much fun with it. Such a cutie 😆 Much Love ❤ PEACE ✌

[@joannbrooks9410]

i bought this LP when i was 13 years old

[@realbser1956]

Ever? Hope you and T had a great holiday. If you want an Elton song with a little church credit, I highly recommend Burn Down The Mission. You are such a wonderful person to see first thing on a Tuesday morning. Thanks for listening to Elton Tasha. ❤️😁

[@Bobbyliscious]

Elton John has a plethora of music. What drew you to this particular song? Depending on what avenue you travel, he had over 70 # 1 hits!

[@warrenburlingame1172]

one of my favorite songs by Elton. He's still on my bucket list but from what I understand he's retired now.

[@TiggerC]

He’s just going to retire from touring so he can spend more time with his family. He will still be working in the music industry.

[@joeterp5615]

Nope - I’m seeing him in September in DC! I bought these tickets over a year ago! (This is my year for seeing legends - as I saw McCartney last month)

[@brad2290]

Great fun happy song!!!

[@TheMike_I]

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and Bennie And The Jets are two of Elton’s best. album versions 👍

[@777petew]

You would have felt ok 51 years ago. I was 13. We had fun. Thank you.

[@theccpisaparasite8813]

All you need was the Bobby Socks and Poodle Skirts and you are there! My mom's generation

[@scotthuish67]

A really great song by Elton John is "Blue Eyes"

[@SteveSmith-ir2xq]

Here is a band for you and your husband to react to,JACKYL. I Stand Alone and The Lumberjack. These are 2 great songs to start with. There is also a video for each one

[@Ocrilat]

Elton is very...all over the place. Other than great singing and amazing music, he doesn't have a style or sound. Crocodile Rock is a very 50s style Rock and Roll song, but even on this album you have 'Blues for Baby and Me' (a sort of rock ballad), Texas Love Song (a tongue in cheek shit-kicker country song), Have Mercy on the Criminal (dramatic storytelling) and Daniel (sad story telling). Also oddly, the entire album is great...every song.

[@Ocrilat]

If you listen to full albums, you'll find this. Very eclectic music styles, and most if not all the songs on each album being good to great. This holds true especially when he was with this band (1972-1975, 1983-1984), plus they worked very quickly. Each of these albums were written, recorded and produced in two weeks or less. From 1969-1976 he released 1-2 records every year. So 1-2 albums for 1969-1976 and 1978-1986. He released 2 albums in 2021 lol.

[@lukusblack6442]

If you like this, you really need to watch the video for Xanadu (movie version) by Electric Light Orchestra with Olivia Newton John on vocals.

[@MichaelJohnson-vt1qp]

Michael Johnson in the the YMCA are doing good work in

[@todd8414]

Beautiful reaction and beautiful woman! 😍

[@cmoeller3]

Funny thing is Elton HATES singing this live in concert!! But bc he loves the fans it’s a staple in live concerts!!

[@williamstokes5299]

Philadelphia Freedom

[@atuuschaaw]

Please do yourself a favor and take a stroll down the path of Elton John. Live or recorded, you will not be disappointed I'm thinking. And No...I do not know how to do the Crocodile Rock. 😉♥

[@paul34326]

I'm sorry, I'm in love ❤

[@ronkitchell6061]

What year did he come out? Um, about that….

[@dannyworten5876]

You cant base his style off of any one song because he is a chameleon
