most emotional was watching this performed at the last concert ever

[@michellourenco2905]

I was at the age of 14 back in 2000, living in a one-horse-town in my home country, Brazil. One night, I was watching tv and, during the break of the sopa opera, an advert for a collection of 1970's music flashed on the screen. I couldn't care less about that old people's music. I was a teenager who hadn't even been around until 1986. Only, one of those songs caught my ears. I looked at the screen and saw a bespectacled, strange looking fellow. His glasses were huge! His voice got into my years and I felt something so good inside. I waited for the commercial to appear on the screen again, so that I could discover who sang that song and its title. I had to read it quickly! Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - Elton John. Cut the long story short, I asked my mom where Elton John's vinyl, which she'd bought to me several months prior was. I hadn't given it too much thought because it didn't have The Lion King songs on it. I looked for that LP for a few days until I finally found it on a sunny Saturday afternoon. I rushed to the record player, eager to listen to the song whose chorus had enchanted me from the word go. I will never forget the moment I heard Elton getting to "The bluuues..." and the band heavenly singing "Aaaaaaa", while the drums sound sort of ripped my heart. I felt like being taken to another dimension. Seriously! As they say, the rest is history. I've been a die-hard fan since then.

[@caliwildflowers1]

Elton John would not be who he is today without Bernie Taupin, the incredibly gifted songwriter who penned most of the lyrics of his songs. Elton's moving, complex, beautiful compositions and fantastic showmanship made for some glorious music. I was at this concert and it changed me. I will never forget it.

[@aviatorpianokraft]

I disagree, not because Taupin isn't a great lyricist, he is. The first thing that gets your attention in a song is not the lyrics, but the melody, the tune. If it's a great melodic and rhythmical sound, it's catchy and sticks in your mind, then you will hum that tune all day and then maybe dig deeper into the words of the song. Just my opinion.

[@anthonydallarosa8314]

@@aviatorpianokraft you also need to recognize the people that were involved in the production, mixing, arrangement, etc. A great player or great singer is simply just that but without Bernie and the other crazy talented people that worked with Elton we would not have the personification of beauty that some of his biggest hits present. People focus on the star only to forget that it’s the entirety of the night sky that makes it beautiful. 👍

[@honumoorea873]

@@aviatorpianokraft Yeah...the first thing you may see is the beautiful ass or eyes of a girl...but in the end what you will love is her brain. So...melody is part of it but the lyrics are what make a song...a real piece of art, rarely the melody only.

[@jacintolorenzo2362]

@Peter O'Connor Whatever, but this song with normal lyrics could still be a masterpiece. Those lyrics with normal instrumentals, I doubt it.

[@epona9166]

This particular video is from a TV show that obviously had a very small audience and he appears to be lip syncing, because he never moves away from the microphone like that when he's singing live. Plus the sound is way too full/produced to be live. I also know that there isn't a serious Elton fan alive that doesn't know how much he credits Bernie for his success. You make it sound like he's a glory seeker or something. That said, I also agree with Roger Hawkins above.

Truly one of the best rock and roll songs ever written! Thank you, Bernie Taupin!! And especially Thank You Elton!!!

Benny and the Jets was excellent ... as was Candle in the Wind.

Crazy how I am 35 and not until watching “rocket man” this song has a whole new meaning to it

[@sueecavanau]

Happened with every song in the movie; like it became a completely new song. It was mind-blowing.

[@Andrew11017]

Was thinking about watching it and was wondering do they incorporate Daniels story into the movie?

[@Jamie-mx8dv]

I am 13 i love him

[@tinmania]

@@Andrew11017 No. That song, according to Bernie, was about a US Vietnam soldier returning to home, in Texas. He read about him in an article in Newsweek. In his lyrics he used "Spain" since it was easier to rhyme with than Vietnam. The last verse explained it a bit more, but Elton cut it out (Bernie doesn't seem to care that he did). Great song! But probably not a fit in a movie about Elton John's life.

[@Andrew11017]

tinmania yeah I figured after I found our Elton didn’t write his own songs. I always thought that song was Written by Elton about his actual brother I was surprised when I found our it wasnt and he doesn’t write his own music

True, it is Elton John's best song of his career.

Im far older than you, was a fan when this song was a hit. I always thought this was the second part of his hit Honky cat, from a couple albums before Goodbye. In Honky cat he's leaving the farm, in Goodbye he's going back. Both songs were big hits

do yourself a favor kid, think for yourself and don't get caught up in your "feelings". there's enough of those self loathing idiots. don't get indoctrinated by your liberal teachers and their insanity. think for yourself and you'll see all the liberal nonsense for yourself. good luck with your future kid

Lyrics When are you gonna come down? When are you going to land? I should have stayed on the farm I should have listened to my old man You know you can't hold me forever I didn't sign up with you I'm not a present for your friends to open This boy's too young to be singing the blues Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah-ah, ah So goodbye yellow brick road Where the dogs of society howl You can't plant me in your penthouse I'm going back to my plough Back to the howling old owl in the woods Hunting the horny-back toad Oh, I've finally decided my future lies Beyond the yellow brick road Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah-ah, ah What do you think you'll do, then? I bet they'll shoot down the plane It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics To set you on your feet again Maybe you'll get a replacement There's plenty like me to be found Mongrels who ain't got a penny Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah-ah, ah So goodbye yellow brick road Where the dogs of society howl You can't plant me in your penthouse I'm going back to my plough Back to the howling old owl in the woods Hunting the horny-back toad Oh, I've finally decided my future lies Beyond the yellow brick road Ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah-ah, ah
