Elton John - Philadelphia Freedom (Live At Arena Di Verona, Italy / 1989)

On any stage, solo or with his band, Elton never fails to deliver the goods when it comes to this 1975 US No. 1 hit - his 4th in 4 years. April 26, 1989 was no exception, and by the end of the song it is clear that the Elton and the audience are having the time of their lives as they, knowingly or not, pay tribute to the World TeamTennis team The Philadelphia Freedoms, and its founder Billy Jean King, from 4,000 miles away.

We can all agree Elton John will always be a legend

[@simplyme922]

We can agree!

[@alipeka2812]

Spitting facts

[@austinvoss576]

Was it ever in question?

[@couchpotato4082]

poo u, the only reason this is a fundraiser is becuase he knew it wouldnt get many views

[@paulmorgan2948]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@janea1658]

Just finished watching Elton's movie. Magnificent

[@simplyme922]

@Jane A 👍 I watched it back to back the next day in case I was having a late night wine reaction the first time...lol. Just a great movie!

[@ashleelarsen9430]

@simplyme922 I need to see that!

[@sandeeforeshee3567]

....elton john.....so much more than anyone could ever imagine...his movie is something EVERYONE should see...just cant say enough about it...loved it...💯

[@robertmichalscheck3072]

E Lowe I said the same thing and people bitched me out,Elton’s great,but the movie totally sucked.

[@franciscodiniz4092]

Elton is always amazing on stage ! He never dissapoints the public .

[@StuKuhlman]

Ive been fortunate to see him live 40 times since 86 across the world, the last being 2020 in Melbourne, and he simply delivers every single time. I must say, seeing him in Sicily in 2003 and Rome in 2005, Italian audiences give US audiences a run for their money by way of energy... Italians go absolutely NUTS for Elton and he gives back 3000%....

[@gianlucaluchina9018]

Ero presente a Verona nel 1989 , vidi per la prima volta Elton dal vivo, da lì altre 30 ...Sul palco come lui nessuno , è vi posso assicurare che tutte le volte dal vivo sembra la prima ...quanto ti voglio bene Elton❤️

[@angelomgcpb]

Ciao Gianluca, sono un ragazzo di 15 anni e Elton John è il mio cantante preferito. Quanto vorrei vederlo dal vivo però chissà quando si potrà... beato te!!

[@gianlucaluchina9018]

Angelo io sono a Zurigo il 6 ottobre ultimo concerto dal vivo....ancora disponibili pochi biglietti , acquistali subito , provi un emozione unica ...subito poi ci sentiamo a Zurigo 👍

[@angelomgcpb]

Gianluca Luchina sarebbe bellissimo... ti faccio sapere grazie

[@kamilovskyrocker4665]

Great Elton John !!!!!! Awesome !!!!!

[@yvonnedejoode9413]

Great concert, and lovely that EJ team talks to us fans and asks questions.

[@tarontula_13]

I love Elton so much! 😘♥️

[@dosenwurst101]

Brilliant Show even a year before his life saving rehab. And he came back stronger than he ever was.

[@thefonzkiss]

Lol. Not even close. His voice has been shot for decades and he hasnt written anything close to being a classic since 1992.

[@dosenwurst101]

@@thefonzkiss Don't be so nostalgic, he has written amazing songs in the mid 90's and the early 2000's and his voice in that period is far away from 'beeing shot.' it's just different, more powerful and matured. I don't miss his falsetto at all

[@mariaameliaribeirogoncalve9275]

Amo Elton John desde sempre

[@ErnieCG]

Very good

[@lavalp]

Electrifying performance of the song. Wow!

[@raissaborges478]

Eu amo as músicas do Elton John,por mais que eu tenha 14 anos,a maioria das pessoas da minha idade não gostam do tipo musical,mais eu amo,sinto uma emoção muito boa

[@nicolasliberato2103]

legal, também conheci o Elton com 14 também difícil achar alguém com essa idade que goste dele

[@biapinheiro6789]

Conheci as músicas do Elton quando tinha 13. Hoje tenho 61. Continuo amando ELTON JOHN. Tive oportunidade de ver a 2 shows dele aqui, no RJ. Acredite, de arrepiar!!!

Amo essa música linda lindaaa!!!!

[@wagnerribeirodesantana1651]

Imagens e se som perfeitos desse concerto! 🎶🎧❤️

[@austinvoss576]

I prefer elton with a grand piano but I have to admit he's killing that keyboard!!!

[@jaggass]

Yeah he opted for a digital piano because it was easier for the crew to carry around and he could directly face the audience.

[@adonistopofmen2571]

great song .......

I love him. ❤❤❤

[@urbster1]

incredible! can someone help, who are the bass player and drummer? thanks!

[@berryryder9175]

The drummer here is Sugarfoot (Jonathan Moffett) and bass player's name is Romeo Williams but I couldn't find anything else about him besides the name

[@nelsonarias2023]

Impresionante Show.Lo descargué pero creo que ya lo bajaron...creo que ahora hay que pagar para obtenerlo.

[@GabrielS521]

WHY THE HECK EJ IS PLAYING ON A DIGITAL PIANO INSTEAD OF GRAND ONE???

[@_anne.marie_lisse]

I was wondering the same thing, I guess they had an issue with the transport or something lile that

[@eliassandgren3132]

That was his bag between 1988 and 1993, baby

[@_anne.marie_lisse]

@@eliassandgren3132 Thanks... Parent?

[@eltontothemax]

Because he famously used the Roland RD1000 in stage and in studio for a few years between Steinway and Yamaha grands.

[@RSCavola]

Because, as he said on tour in 1979, “he wanted to show how versatile he is!” 😂

[@neusaaraujo4658]

😅😅😅

[@Cleverogue]

Let me start by saying that I consider Elton to be an absolute legend, and I think that his original band was one of the best backing units ever. That being said, I can’t decide which is worse... That horrendous, grooveless, panicked, and rushing live rhythm section, or that incessantly noodling guitar guy, much less, the “not ready for prime time” synth player. Holy “didn’t/couldn’t learn the parts”, Batman!

[@znrctrnn]

Too fast.
