Elton John was the first record I bought at 12 years old, and have bought everything he has done since. 45 years later his talent still amazes me!

[@alyanni]

Wich one was your first record???

[@jrcwwl]

@@alyanni Caribou and his greatest hits, then worked backwards, and then bought everything from Caribou on. First saw him in concert when I was 21 while traveling in Madrid, Spain.

[@bushbasher85]

The look Elton gives his band at the start of Rocketman right after 'he sings preflight' is like he's saying to them "Okay Guys we have to come through on this one" and by god did they come through.

[@shades1718]

when sting said that he always wanted to hear Elton sing "roxanne" Elton was seriously thinking about it for a second

[@martinadejaquiz2482]

Be sure to check out (if you haven't already) EJ and Band with the Royal Academy of Music orchestra & choirs in London (or the combined Royal Academy orchestra with the Julliard orchestra/choir in NYC) - these are PHENOMENAL performances!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKTGmZuQbLmrf68 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rl7WmX1nabqXl7s

[@karenmcdunn3852]

Just listened to this concert all the way through again (after just seeing him live for his final GYBR tour performance in Pittsburgh, four days ago), and I must say, I totally agree - Elton and the band were in top form here, the sound quality was excellent, and the playlist was superb!! (Although I must also say that the farewell concert was outstanding!! My BFF and I, hard-core EJ fans since 1972, were thoroughly satisfied... and incredibly impressed - Elton is 75 now (20 years since this concert!!), and he still sounds, AND PLAYS, like the GOAT he is!!! Long Live Sir Elton!!! Thanks for all the incredible music and memories!!! 🌟🌟🌟💖💖💖😘🥰😍🤩

[@bat2185]

This is the first time I have seen this. OMG. a women ask Elton to sing rocket man....her husband was killed in the world trade center and he like that song that brought me to tears.

[@billcolston1903]

Wow what talent. Probably one the greatest composer of our time.

[@karenmcdunn3852]

And one of the greatest rock/pop/jazz/blues pianists EVER!!!

Always loved it when he lets loose and plays that barrel house boogie woogie piano. He still rocks post lion king. Thank god

[@quacksacker]

Elton has so much great new music and all anyone wants to hear are the same old songs

Always has been and always will be a legend. Seems hitting "play" starts an emotional roller coaster every time. Be well all, great show.

[@dd07871]

That was awesome. Elton in his prime. Thanks so much!

[@alyanni]

Thanks

[@gahloot]

Don't know how I missed this one, but I'm glad I found it. As well I am glad his voice still had some of the old voice to it!

[@alyanni]

Thank you so mucho for sharing your thoughts. For me is the most special version of Rocket Man. Greetings from Uruguay.

[@69dragster]

all his music is great but rocket man was this great to dedicate to robbie and her husband RIP Peter

[@theguitarman4440]

Yeah, that was special and great and sad all in one. God Bless all of us effected by this horrific tragedy...

[@shawnjesseman664]

That hit me right in the feels. I almost lost it when she started crying.

[@kentsilverfour]

It's one of the most memorable things to me. Robi's husband it's being honored. A very emotional moment that always makes me cry. Respect and thanks to all the men and women in that sad event!

27:18 my introduction to “improvisation” at the age of 12 - still gives me shivers to this day! Learned by ear and still can play note for note 🙈

[@alyanni]

I consider there's no other Rocket' solo piano so delightful like this. And there are other versions in concerts out there so so great! But this one is the best

[@jasoncook4794]

Elton John live in Australia is still one of the greatest live albums by anyone. Madman Across the Water is amazing. Even in 2018 listening to Rocket Man and that dedication during this broadcast brings a tear to my eye. Nothing but love to the families so impacted by 9/11.

[@alyanni]

Jason Cook Absolutely. Tour de force is one of the 50 pieces or concerts someone must to listen before die.

[@Scooterboi60]

I was there at that concert, the one two nights before that, the last one and one in Perth (not the one he had to cancel 😢) and even though he was suffering vocally he gave it everything he had and I reckon a few of the songs performed have never sounded better. Although I haven’t been to every concert that other artists/bands have performed I reckon you’d be hard pressed to find one that comes close to that tour.

I would have requested ‘this song has no title’ and ‘tell me when the whistle blows ‘

[@zoyataylor]

boy in red shoes is great and rare live ! thanks

[@busteralde764]

Nice song by elton jhon

[@thomasallison4257]

I love Elton John music I love listing Rock man, your song Daniel ,blue eyes candle in the wild , and all his love song great to.

Great show. I don't understand the reasons why we haven't a DVD like the Bee Gees for example... ?!?!?!?I guess Rocket Man from the Breaking Hearts Tour - Wembley Stadium jun.30.1984 still the best version after all this time. The second best version maybe Rock In Rio 2011 - great solo piano, he played like no one show before. Check it out !Hi, Ana Boschiero, you was there by phone !!

[@Humpydogg]

Davey Johnstone

[@isabellafinegold]

Johnstone been with him since the beginning. So has the drummer here(Nigel Olsson) even though he has had periods away. Dee Murray(bass) was in the original band. He died about 10 years ago.

[@redhairgirl50]

passion4posh Does it really matter what they still look like? If they are like me they are growing older and want to hold on to their youthful days! The music is what really counts though. They are 30 years older and so am I. However, they all play their music just as good as they did in their younger days. Elton's voice may have changed however he is not 20 something anymore he is now 60 something and is still very good.

[@passion4posh]

I didnt mean it in a negative way ,but i can see why you would feel so touchy about it.

@@isabellafinegold to nitpick, Olsen and Murray were there first, Johnstone came in a little later.

[@antweezy171]

completely agree :)

[@r.a.contrerasma8578]

I would have requested Funeral for a friend/Love lies bleeding. Apropos for the moment then, not to mention his rock anthem.

[@alyanni]

I would like to know about that widow or any relative at this time, after so many years of that special request (Rocket Man) PS the only record of this concert , ergo this particular song was completely recorded and uploaded by me, from a VHS in 2001 Greetings from Uruguay

[@thegatewithbriancohen]

I was in Montréal in 2001 when this concert appeared on the television in my hotel room, and that was the first time I heard the song “Ballad Of The Boy In The Red Shoes”. I immediately liked it and thought it sounded like his songs from his heyday in the 1970s, and it was at that moment that I decided that I had to add the Songs From the West Coast album to my collection. I still think that album is one of the best by Elton John. After all these years , I immediately recognized this video when I saw it. Thank you for uploading it.

[@alyanni]

@@thegatewithbriancohen THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS LET me tell you a story Back in 2001 I had not a digital recorder set, just a vhs. In that time I receive cable tv analog ( not digital) That night in L.A. there was a very heavy blizzard that lead to several technical difficulties at the first part of the show. Everyone saw a flashing transmition.. for a while , wich obviously ruined my record and That broadcast service obviously. That was at 9pm East time. Eventually at the reposition at 1am at the next day, we can see the 3 songs from the beginning without that technical difficulties. Just to realize that they replay and re recorder (internally) those songs that were broke up due to that bad wheather in order to get a proper clean register. I recordered 2 times In Uruguay. Place where I live, and from where I writing right now. Happy Saturday Greetings and prosperity 🖑👍👍👍

What?

[@BetaDaysStudios]

Its soo sad I didnt hear my favorite..Nikita

[@John19182004]

not really "by request" though. If you phoned in, they gave you a list of songs (all hits that he knows) and you could request one of those.. so not really what the title implies.

Ik I would have requested Mona Lisas, Harmony, or My Fathers Gun
