Elton John Too Low For Zero Live

[@jcc1451]

This album is brilliant.

[@sherrymurphy855]

What Sir Elton did for my life could have never been predicted and perhaps still cannot be put into words.💜In L. A. @ the Universal Amphitheater - the 80s. Elton stopped his performance after seating himself for his 4th number (Rocket Man) when I appeared at the stage with 2 dozen meticulous red roses (presentation style) He pulled a spotlight on me and proceeded to bring me up for a photoshoot.🌹He was speaking to me and sweating on my vintage black sequined sweater! (What is vintage for if not for SIR ELTON!) This man is not only a musical genius but the most extraordinary person I have ever met.🌈TEN YEARS AFTER: Crisler Arena - Ann Arbor MI.... he stopped another performance to accept roses from me and actually looked at me as if to say: "Don't I know you from somewhere?" And I looked at him and said: 'You are my hero." Perhaps even my saving grace. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Love this album and song..also the cocaine use shows

[@katievonolendorp5894]

Awesome! It was one of my favourites in the early 80s. Elton and Supertramp. So glad, that they are all still well and alive. Everybody but Dee. RIP. What a great concert.

[@jaggass]

A song that isn't played enough live.

[@mickandmj]

agreed... brilliant song

[@daveracey2429]

Pure magic from Elton,one of my favourites,full of energy,passion, true musicianship,genuis piano maestro

[@joydavis6191]

Such a bright happy tune to brighten our day and Elton and Nigel look great.

[@nickavenoso7851]

It’s not really a bright and happy tune if you listen to the lyrics. It’s about a man who can’t sleep, his relationships are worsening, he’s having trouble understanding the world and he’s just so down. It’s still a really great song.

[@TravelinBand747]

@@nickavenoso7851They made it more upbeat for this performance, which was a great call given the high-energy concert, but you’re right, the album version is much more subdued. I always found it soothing in a way because it was pleasant sounding, but the lyrics were indeed very somber.

[@nickavenoso7851]

@@TravelinBand747 I know that. I was talking about the lyrical content. In this performance it sounds like a happy song, but when you dive into the lyrics the song takes on a whole new persona and you realize the story that Bernie wrote about. Too Low For Zero is personally one of my favorite Elton songs from the 80’s.

[@robertweedman8043]

Amazing version. Really well played.

[@TravelinBand747]

They kicked it up a notch here, a drum machine is keeping the beat, which is why Nigel is standing up front.

[@f.m.r.1437]

Nigel was the cutest guy in that band and still is. Love & Merry Christmas 2019 from Phoenix, AZ, Nigel!

[@joshuapressley4441]

The arrangement on this live version is better than the studio by far!

[@davidracey7438]

Full of energy the piano king master, never be another man like this...

[@tntamusements]

[@JustinVisser1]

I love the piano solo.

[@jaggass]

Did anybody catch the a bit of a Beatles song Baby You're a Rich Man near the end?

[@heatherbaker362]

Okay, we're all WAAAAY older now, but I'd STILL do Nigel Olsson, heh heh...

[@f.m.r.1437]

I'm with you on that. He was so cute in those days---love the smile. Plus, he looks like me...really.

[@nanvanoverbeek3210]

Yeah, he was/is beautiful and is super nice. Sings great too!!

[@f.m.r.1437]

Been crushing on Nigel Olsson for decades. Such a cute guy & not a bad drummer, either!

[@CHR1SMOV1ES]

I bought this record random in eBay and I really love it. "To low for Zero" :D

[@barbarastanbanks4815]

CHR1SMOV1ES I got the album as a cassette and played it so much that I broke it and my dad had to buy me another copy which he then copied on a blank tape!!!

[@arkangelmichael9594]

My first concern ever and was in Christchurch addington raceway at age 13 helpin out with food shops .Got stoned walking from stall to stall . Was way cool.

[@luismarceloinostrozabidart922]

I've always thought that the lyrics say " two low for zero" ...It makes me more sense...

@MissEltonJohn yes well if you are a woman than I'm afraid you won't have much luck in winning him over lol. He is truly happy with David Furnish

[@toniisaacson6282]

The growl has just started kicking in by this point.

[@f.m.r.1437]

All I see is Nigel...such a hot guy, ski clothes or not. Ah, Nigel...so good to see him away from the drum kit.

[@JosieReddingtonDeSanta]

I soo agree with you!! :D I also wanna marry him ;D The sexiest man alive, surely!!

[@f.m.r.1437]

He looks like me and I love his smile then and now. He was the cutest and still is in that band.
