Paul Gilbert - Bennie and the Jets

Elton John's classic song performed by Paul Gilbert

[@rockrabbitt]

Hey kids, shake it loose together The spotlight's hitting something That's been known to change the weather We'll kill the fatted calf tonight so stick around You're gonna hear electric music, solid walls of sound [Pre-Chorus] Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet? Ooh, but they're so spaced out B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets Oh, but they're weird and they're wonderful Oh, Bennie, she's really keen [Chorus] She's got electric boots, a mohair suit You know I read it in a magazine, oh B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets [Verse 2] Hey kids, plug into the faithless Maybe they're blinded, but Bennie makes them ageless We shall survive, let us take ourselves along Where we fight our parents out in the streets To find who's right and who's wrong [Pre-Chorus] Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet? Ooh, but they're so spaced out B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets Oh, but they're weird and they're wonderful Oh, Bennie, she's really keen [Chorus] She's got electric boots, a mohair suit You know I read it in a magazine, oh B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets [Pre-Chorus] Oh, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet? Oh, but they're so spaced out B-B-B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets Oh, but they're weird and they're wonderful Oh, Bennie, she's really keen [Chorus] She's got electric boots, a mohair suit You know I read it in a magazine, Oh B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets [Outro] Bennie, Bennie and the Jets Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets, the Jets, the Jets Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets

I so hope that my comment makes it's way to Paul himself. Assuming it does... Paul, effing wow dude. You turned a song that I loved and imagined to be perfect and successfully made it more perfect. Bravo dude, from the bottom of my soul to yours.

I got to see Paul play this with a band called Electric Fence at NAMM in the late 90's. It was mind boggling. I never forgot it. In fact, that's why I was searching for it and found this on youtube just now.

Gilbert's nice sense of writing poppy songs,such as "Take Cover",was inspired by a song like this.

This is great! Thanks for posting. I only found this because in an old program I have it says Bennie and the Jets was the B-side of Girls Who Can Read Your Mind.

Robert Steur That’s right! Paul’s B-Sides can be pretty hard to find!
