Ray Charles & Elton John - Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word (2004)

[@lclarybethurenasantana919]

Mr. Charles was dying and this was his last recording you can hear he was tired but excellence to his last performance. What a life what a talent. R.I.P.❤

[@lolomicho7202]

Absolutely man 🥲🥲🥲🥲

[@danfab4]

What a talent

[@jintanathammontree3815]

[@rolinde4146]

Amazing

[@dancsmonika3135]

🙏🏼🕊❤

[@qazacoatl]

in my opinion is the Duet Of The Century...

[@joevanseeters2873]

I think this is an incredible version. Ray and Elton both put their heart and soul into their singing in this version. RIP Ray. Both are absolutely incredible entertainers. Ray was without a doubt one of the greatest singers of ALL time. Elton will also go down in history as one of the 20th centuries greatest singers/composers/songwriters.

[@jackierave]

Joe, I think you nailed it.. perfectly.. so wonderful..

[@scotmoser8716]

Joe, One other thing to add to your excellent comment is the roll of inspiration to a young artist. This is a combination of those two things merging. The student and the teacher performing together.

[@lornacastillo9963]

I love Elton John, but Ray Charles broke my heart on this interpretation. Two magnificent artists.

[@cwashington77able]

Two titans of music

São realmente dois monstros da música. Smplismentes magníficos. 😍😍🙏🏽🙏🏽👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇧🇷.

[@therealmanman5769]

Ray charles the best

[@atirasemma7937]

Why am I sad listening to this version🥺

[@maryclark5329]

This is so sad and beautiful at the same time. Tears in my eyes

[@TheBlacknight571]

this is still the version I prefer...

[@yaminichauhan2014]

Omg, I loveeeeeeeeeeeee this song so much!!!

[@exthomes]

How could music sound any sweeter than this! ty for the post

[@RonnieFriend]

UR welcome :-)

[@joetursi9573]

The gold standard of vocalists.

[@scottieeeee]

THE Ray Charles is the MAN, the BLUEPRINT, the FVCKN STANDARD

[@carlomoiola8544]

Wonderful. Ray Charles is a great artist. Unforgettable.

[@chancebrown106]

Even more heartbreaking is the fact that this is apparently Charles’ last recording before his passing.

[@BabyLambCreations]

I was today years old when I learned Ray Charles' last recording before his death was a duet with Sir Elton John. Two legendary singers/pianists collaborating........and now I'm gonna go cry my eyes out. R.I.P. Ray.

[@qwezxc23456]

The way Ray Charles gets into song, amazing.

[@MallikaMenon]

How beautifully they complement each other :) Heartfelt singing!

[@nickvee8744]

Wow ....amazing and perfect. if you don't feel something when you hear this song something ain't right what a gift Ray left on the world and we're lucky to have Elton John still performing.

[@Gabry04_]

Theyre completely different artists: elton has legendary piano skills and when he sings its like hes telling you a story. While on the other hand ray hit you right to the heart as if he was making you feel the same emotions,real emotions. Both legendary artists, legendary album.

[@amaliacarocci8269]

Artisti leggendari..li ho visti a Palermo..sono supr felice ..ch e musica

[@squinteastwood4637]

it's almost like ray is just talking the lyrics, he makes it sound so easy haha elton has an uncanny way of making any song sound like he lived it, which he sometimes did. both have so much pain in they're voice it's incredible.

[@ayo6324]

We might cannot speak the same language but music is the language we can all understand

[@severinecespedes9027]

Oui un langage universel 🥰😘

[@Oh_I_Will]

Amen

[@HansKorte]

Breathtaking, with a huge amount of respect for the artist. Every time I listen to this song I hear how fragile his health was at the end. A great musician has gone..

[@l_Live_In_Oregon]

The first time I heard this song was in 1977 in the movie Slap Shot. It was perfect even if you only heard a small portion. This version is incredible

[@mrcoacoa123]

Real music leaves a tear in your eyes. If it's "too depressing" than you are much too scared to listen to real music, and go back to your Cold Play, or Justin Bieber.

[@lowselvaggiani]

"Charles we miss no one in the world as immense as you"✨❤️🎙️

[@marwanrasamny6847]

charles and elton john, legendary, i can listen to them sing anything for hours, u dnt get bored frm such wonderful voices, never gets old, pure talent and pure voices

[@jacquelinelekbir2677]

L’inoubliable ray Charle quelle talent il restera pour toujours dans l’histoire ❤

[@barryleeper5634]

I saw Ray Charles live a long time ago and let me tell you it was such an honor. Ray was such a great showman, when Ray got going man his right leg was bouncing up and down while he was tickling those 88's. It was a thrill to se a living legend back then!!

[@awesomeg7284]

i love how ray sings. his voice can touch your soul

[@lusuga6807]

Ich liebe diesen Voice von Ray! Es hat so viel mehr Tiefe und holt dich als Hörer ab! ❤

[@MrTPain]

It does reach your soul. Don't it? 🙄

[@lloydprince4941]

I call this album his master class in singing with feeling. There is a difference when he sings.

[@richardcondon3797]

Notice that this audience is international and that may be what language the world needs now.

[@danieleclauzel1674]

Oui, oui, oui, vous avez raison.

[@jelenaabramova3907]

Such songs make me cry....not because I feel sorry I just miss the time such music was written and made...

[@RamFawzyGarasCEO]

Sadly true

[@stedebassett1523]

I can almost imagine how two meastros talked about. They are both incredible pianist and their depth of knowledge of the interpretation of composition is deep.

[@woodylaura44]

This song was beautiful to begin with but this duet with Ray Charles and the arrangement take it to a whole new level.

[@yaminichauhan2014]

Beautiful version!!! Just LOVE it !!!

[@martinwatson4398]

Ray Charles the Legend.

[@davidstoltz1]

With all due respect to Elton,I saw Ray do this alone at a NAMM concert and it was much better alone.Ray took this off the roof emotionally and it was very moving.It was was also spot on technically.He never faltered....pretty cool because he was older and quirkier at times.It was a magical moment!

[@suebyles1434]

Why have I only just found this? So much emotion in this song; incredibly uplifting. Wow, just wow!😍🇦🇺

[@cassielclark6919]

Two classics singing a classic...both legendary.

Beautiful song Ray was going to leave in another world. I’m crying when I ‘m listening this song to emotional

[@emibazzi4752]

😭 it's sad so sad to not hearing your warm voice again . the legend Ray Charles rest in peace 💙🙏 2020 and still can't stop listening to this song

[@allymayful]

WOW!!! Ray had 'it' right till his end [2004]. The 'soul' he added to this song is superb. Loved his amazing music since l was 10 yrs old, - in Australia, in the early '60s.

[@stevebujega3757]

Absolutely Outstanding Vocals, From 2 Legends. Actually had Goosebumps listening to This Version of that Song.

[@0lamilekanadewoyin177]

His last song, so beautiful, so touching, so emotional just imagine if a song like this went to the grave with him. Rest in peace Ray Charles I dedicate this song to my late friend Adeola who died on the same day you died June 11 2004, I miss him like crazy with each and every passing day. I miss you home boy

I view this as a stroy being told through a young man, Elton john and when he's old it's ray charles.

Obra de arte …es increíble la voz de un genio que va a morir al día siguiente de este tema conmovedor…. El dúo es magnifico

[@beachside1]

This is Ray Charles last song he made for this album and the last one he ever made. The guy was superhuman. He never complained while he was in pain from cancer. He expected the best from everyone including himself. Elton still talks about Ray Charles at his concerts and dedicates this song to him. The original mixing board for this song has never been changed since he made this song and died. Til this day it still hasnt been touched
