Rod Stewart Meets with Elton John Every Christmas

[@luhoffma8836]

Rod Stewart has more energy than any other rock star. Look at age 79 he’s still going top speed. Amazing entertainer.

[@adrianpoesiat]

Good interview

[@adrianpoesiat]

Long John Baldrey got both Elton and Rod connected in the music biz. The story was that Baldrey met Rod when he was busking in a London tube station at 17.

[@tiffanyroseangeles34]

Def had work done ☑️ to look years younger,but it’s Rod the Mod.?

[@gallardoo9]

Mick has way more energy dancing around and performing and older both are great

[@GT3PORSCHE991.1]

I like how Rod Stewart is so respectful to Dan ❤

[@conmolBry3]

I was thinking the very same thing. That seems to be common to his interviewees.

[@JustinCase780]

Rod talking about the success of "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" and the Rolling Stone critic: So fuck him. Dan: I take your point. And, I don't blame you for one second. 😅

[@johnbrand1893]

Rod is 79, so he’s no spring chicken these days, but I get your point. 😂😂

[@StephanieJeanne]

I've always liked Rod. He never comes across as anything but a decent guy who happens to be talented. He still looks great, too. 💜

[@JamesDean-r3l]

What an incredible man, so open and honest, a true gentleman

[@mrsullyrox]

My younger sister invited me to a Rod Stewart concert. Normally I would've not of gone, but since the ticket was free, I went and had a blast. He was great.

[@EILEENCYBULSKI-mx5bx]

❤❤❤

[@pamharris990]

Love this guy. Talented, mischievous, and funny❤

[@JohnKorvell]

Saw Rod and The Faces at my university gymnasium in 1971. ( Imagine them playing a university gym?! Different times). Any way, one of the best rock concerts I ever saw. So much energy. Soccer balls flying everywhere. The whole band seemed to be having so much fun!

[@VanessaStagg]

Still has the best hair 😍

[@3wheelmannc860]

Rod and Elton... talent almost unimaginable unless experienced live and reflected upon over stories, albums, and videos. Thanks for sharing you amazing gifts.

[@terrytownsend5583]

Elton John is in a different league

[@newc1531]

Freddie was friends with the also. Their name for a band was "hair nose and teeth"

[@johnmoon9146]

I have seen Mr. Stewart in the 80's,90's and 2023. He like fine wine he gets better with age. The dude still can rock.

[@don7680]

Dan does a great job interviewing these great rock stars.

[@bluevictory1010]

Agreed, he's very respectful and gives them time to answer his questions. So many interviewers are rude and keep interrupting, they could learn alot from Dan.

[@MrBlueSky-m2k]

I cooked for him for his fortieth Birthday Party at “ Blondes “ nightclub in Mayfair , he was an absolute gentleman and very appreciative and approachable even too a chef , which was not a prestigious job in those days , God Bless you Rod , you’ll always be my favourite Rock Icon ❤

[@johngalt5411]

Rod's a sweetheart. Cheers mate!

[@babewhowalks]

I’ve seen Rod 4 times in concert, always very entertaining and did all your favorite songs..fantastical!

[@johnbarr2422]

I think this interview puts Rod in an incredible light!!!!!!!!!!! Great Interview

[@mackmaloney3776]

For some reason, Dan is excellent interviewing rock stars

[@andrewSUN17]

Only he acts like he is an interrogator at times, lol!

[@mackmaloney3776]

that's the idea

How Lucky is Dan Rather to meet and talk with all these wonderful people and still doing what he loves in his 90’s!! 💕💕

Not only that, Dan also gets paid decently.

[@NTATchannelNickTaylor]

I'm an older dude and grew up with Rod the Mod blasting out of the radio in the 70s and 80s.

[@trubrit5036]

My word! Dan Rather does a magnificent job for a man in his 90's. And Rod Steward is a great subject to interview. He is always very real, honest, funny and respectful. Great interview!

[@marryellenmonahan5585]

You can tell by looking at him.He's healthy and still gorgeous. Soccer and rock star ... working for him.

[@Brucetta]

80 years old in January and looking so damn good on it , I’m going to start drinking 3 glasses of wine each night.

[@susanbrennan5511]

Maggie May was always a favorite but I loved every song he put out. We saw him in concert when he was in his classics era and it blew us away.

[@Mezza-ld3bq]

I've seen rockin Rod Stewart twice. He's fantastic

[@a.e.7988]

Rod is the best. I've seen his show at least 6 times in Vegas. Thanks for the memories!😊

[@Rjhs001]

Still down to earth and still a real gentleman. Nice one Rod. Your music was the soundtrack to my formative years and I will be forever grateful.

[@ziggyscatworld]

What an icon, classy gent. Oldest brother saw Rod Stewart with Jeff Beck. During late '60s, San Francisco. I enjoyed his '93 tour. Decades later. Timeless music since the '60s. Quite remarkable. 😺

[@ScarlettEmeraldASMR]

Started being a fan of Rod Stewart during the late 80s when Downtown Train music video came on MTV. Great guy. Amazing to hear him talk about Elton ❤

[@robertjones-yo4ql]

ROD IS A TOP MAN , AND HE LOVES THE FOOTBALL .

[@opiumtrail7032]

Why are you shouting? Are you sight impaired?

[@davidpayne3938]

It's always nice to see interviews of famous people like Rod to get a small insight of his life, he's certainly a happy person so good for him and I've certainly enjoyed his music over the years, I'm sure he would be one of the first to laugh at himself and the parody Kenny Everett did of himself back in the day was absolutely and still is hilarious.😂

[@mikewinston8709]

In 1973 I worked at the Marquee Club on Wardour St; I was 18 and a barman. I met Rod, Elton and Long John Baldry. Baldry used to bring his pet goat into the club on a chain! Elton had his record label, Rocket Records, across the street and used to pop in for a drink. Different days then; 1000 times more privacy.

[@charlesyateschalfant]

Rod's a great artist, one of the classics.

[@PerfDayToday]

We’ve been blessed to see Sir Rod in Vegas twice the past few years; and, one more time this spring. 🙏🏼

[@chuckc7375]

Rod the mod is the greatest and had the most unique coolest voice of all of the singers that were known and famous. I have most of his albums that he ever recorded.

[@joereedsmith1531]

Sir Rods a very nice man and loves model trains as much as he loves music and football.

[@davidmarais1048]

Amen on the wine advice, Rod!

[@67Pepper]

Now I can never listen to "Maggie May" again without laughing.

[@charlesodumeosemene9256]

I listened to his music when I am lonely and it makes me love myself by feeling self importance and worth

[@sharkyfish3492]

[@pierrelalonde3705]

Other celebs should look up to Rod for never taking drugs, no rehab I admire him for that!

[@seaturtledog]

He said he dabbled in them.

[@Godin12345]

Did alot of drinking and dabbled with cocaine...clean for a rock star but not totally

[@philipk9783]

Old interview

[@richguest]

Such an underrated artist, great to see him finally getting the recognition he deserves.

[@purplecowideal]

He hasn’t been underrated. He’s always been at the top of his game and the fans and world has always known it. Where have you been? (No disrespect)

[@willcambeul6172]

@@purplecowideal Too true. Millions and millions of record sales, worldwide. A career spanning 60 years and still packing the venues. I first saw him, in The Bromel Club, in Bromley, in 1964, when he was Long John's unknown backing singer. (Saw Reg in the same year, btw). Long John's throat was playing up so Rod did the second set (bands did 2 sets, with an interval in those days, in the clubs) and blew us away - singing R'n'B, Soul and Blues. saw him a number of times over the years. As for other recognition - a knighthood, in the UK isn't at all insignificant and not many rock artists have it.

[@IWMD]

It’s great when your heroes turn out to be interesting, uncomplicated people. Loved the Faces and Rod Stewart. One of the best voices ever.

[@ST-xg3gy]

Great interview once again! 👏

[@markmoran916]

We lived near him in Essex and used to see him at the chequers pub and restaurant in matching green and he was always very polite and friendly and people just let him have a meal

[@juliemarie5926]

Never had time for that 😂 him and Elton hoover the stuff up at one point

[@ThePHCHIEF]

Exactly. Where do these KZbin comments come from anyway? I think most must be AI.

[@boydbare9579]

Long John Baldry discovered both Elton John and Rod Stewart. He was a great guy.

[@mrdeafa25]

In The Faces years Rod was awesome, his disco years not so much but it did widen his audience. He still has the voice even after all these years but most of all I respect him as a family man. He is a good example to any father.

[@nicolemurphy2629]

We don't know.... We are not his kids.... but he seems ok

[@adrianpoesiat]

I like how Rod gave homage to Long John Baldrey. ❤

[@coolcat6303]

Rod is such a down to earth guy and has more hits than you can shake a stick at. He's also one of the few music legends that i've followed for 40 years but have never been lucky enuff to see live (other than concert videos). Still glad to see that he's healthy, happy and making new music though.

You are a fucking legend Rod

[@SeanCollins-t4w]

In everything I’ve seen with Rod, including KZbin shorts where he’s just in public with fans or what have you, he’s always been just a really nice guy, humble, and kind. Gotta like the guy. I’m 57 and I wonder if any people recall the urban myth, rumor back in the day about his having to have his stomach pumped as it was full of….

[@plantmillionsofteees5676]

Oh gosh YES!! I had TOTALLY FORGOTTEN about that! Now let me see if I can match you, urban legend for urban legend: Mikey (from the LIFE cereal commercials) ate Pop Rocks and drank a Dr.Pepper, and his head exploded 💥 😂

I absolutely loved Rods earlier blues type music. I’d rather go blind, you keep me hanging on,etc. Tremendous blues singer in his time. Rods version of,I am a man of constant sorrow was probably the best blues song I’ve ever heard. Another was ,I know im losing you when with the Jeff Beck Band. OUTSTANDING.

For everyone, if you can get it online or go to your nearest library and request it, the memoir that Rod Stewart did several years ago is absolutely wonderful. Chapter by chapter he goes through his life and loves chronologically. The book is very well written and it's the kind of thing that if you ever had the chance to meet him you'd say to him, "I read your memoir and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you for many years of great music!" I finally saw him in 2007...

[@violinmke]

A story in it ( as memory serves ) he actually had throat cancer and couldn't sing for 6 months and wasn't sure if he'd ever get it back. After 6 mos brought his band to his garage and each day he'd sing a little, then a little more til it strengthened.
