WOW!| FIRST TIME HEARING Elton John - The One REACTION

[@williambill5172]

This was my late wife and my first dance at our wedding in 1995...rest in peace, my love! Even more beautiful is Bernie and Elton's song about the love of a father for his son dying of AIDS - The Last Song...search for the actual video to give it even more depth.

[@georgesmith3011]

Without a dougt

[@jennifermartin7791]

The first time I heard that song, I sobbed. I still cannot listen to it without getting tearful. It hits me SO hard. That's the sign of a masterpiece. Very sorry for your loss.

[@lisamayerwille8752]

So sorry for your loss!!!!

[@SweetPea103182]

So sorry for your loss. Yes, the Last Song is heart wrenching. Such an underrated song. This song brings out so much emotion and power with Elton’s vocals. A beautiful song. That I hope they will react to sometime and with the actual video also.

[@maureenormston8356]

The Last Song is my favourite of Elton's, very poignant and so underrated, deserves more air play than it gets.

[@joey22306]

This masterpiece is the most underrated song of his IMO.

[@meriannestoneback7436]

Agreed. It's phenomenal, IMHO. Lots of this album is great, but this song is a masterpiece.

[@markmatkovichjr]

Masterpiece is absolutely correct.

[@steveyoung2317]

Great song and overlooked. Listen to this tune frequently

[@blackwolf6082]

The Last Song on that same album will bring you to tears

[@lundberga]

That song is so underrated.

[@rexgoodheart3471]

Man, no kidding. As a father to a son I just can't imagine the pain... and that song brings me to tears EVERY F'ING TIME.

[@michaelp2776]

My favorite Elton John song.

[@MeMeVoyageOf]

Mine, too! "Candle In the Wind" is a close second.

[@barbarachieppo9603]

Mine too.❤

[@pablosebastianveiga2151]

Mine too ❤

[@32a34a]

Besides Harmony this is probably my favorite Elton John song. Elton's piano playing is sublime.

[@ervicito77]

My uncle is a huge fan of Elton John. He recently is battling Alzheimers. We're slowly starting to lose him sadly, and one of the free things we do to get him back mentally and emotionally with us is by playing music by Elton John. It's been tough for the whole family, but it's a blessing how music has the magic to awaken the heart and soul like that. 💖

[@jeanzounia9094]

C'est tellement touchant. Que Dieu vous bénisse ❤

[@surlechapeau]

Jay & Amber, you'll love his "Philadelphia Freedom" and "Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding" !!!! (i'm guessing on the blocked list?)

[@elizabethfranco1284]

Everyone else has reacted to it

[@mercuryangel5632]

Why? They acted like entitled youtubers with canned comments.

[@stevehatton-bw3bo]

Elton is always good! Half the fun of your channel is the variety of music; the other half is watching Amber get lost in these types of songs!❤❤❤She just melts!!

[@MoMoMyPup10]

She just might play into that lust of yours. Just a theory.

[@brentcox7772]

Sir Elton is so talented! “Levon” is still my favorite!!🤘🔥

[@bkm2797]

Indian Sunset is mine! Same incredible album, Madman Across the Water.

[@KenRoerden]

@@bkm2797 Front to back. It is impossible to pick a favorite song, but my favorite Elton era is '69-75.

[@bkm2797]

Agreed, amazing tunes and great albums, Elton and Bernie were at the top!

[@MrsJoannaG]

I walked down the wedding isle to this song. I love it, it’s beautiful.

[@gaylemalone5897]

Thank you for playing this beautiful song. Elton John never fails to please and this has always been one of my favorite songs.

[@clarionblur]

My favorite Elton John song. Some of the most beautiful lyrics ever written.

[@RickeyWilkersonVoices]

"Salvation" and "Ticking" by Elton are a must listen when you are ready to be blown away!

[@davidrold9770]

Tickin' is a the best song on the Caribou album, one of his best, gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.

[@RickeyWilkersonVoices]

@@davidrold9770 Yes sir and me as well.

[@alicols]

Been a minute… Thanks for reminding me of The One! He can sing anything! So many iconic songs to dive into! Can’t go wrong with Elton!

[@Jude_196]

Have always loved the chord progression in this song - Elton is SO VERY TALENTED!! MAD RESPECT!!! HUGS, YA'LL!!

[@MrSteveLoucks]

One of Elton’s most lush ballads. It was even included in his recent hit with Britney Spears. Glad you like it. Next up, please please please do Philadelphia Freedom! You’ll be glad you did!

[@63saruman]

They should react to Sir Elton's live performance of it on Soul Train.

[@MrSteveLoucks]

@@63saruman I couldn’t agree more. Such a classic performance!

[@masonjames1]

Great suggestion @MrSteveLoucks and @63saruman kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIHMimtnqqirfsk Just notice a 2002 version too - big production wow kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3jUo4t-gsuLptk

[@power9210]

This is one of my favorite Elton John songs

[@cathyortiz1280]

Still gives me Goosebumps! Just sooo beautiful & romantic - his vocals with the music is just perfection!

[@362chop]

He’s the most amazing. Has done it for so long, never dried up.

[@TheNukewarfare2]

Part of the ’90s renaissance of Elton after he got sober. It’s extremely beautiful.

[@jeffthewhiff]

Jay and Amber, I am really glad that you finally reacted to this great Elton John song because it is "one" of my favorites and in my mind, a masterpiece!

[@marieb0625]

I just love to hear him play the piano. Hearing anything he does live is amazing. This is one of my favorites from him.

[@firefighterchick]

This album is amazing! Another song from this album is The Last Song. It's an incredibly emotional masterpiece. It's about a son who is dying of AIDS who is shocked that his estranged father comes to his side to be with him. It was the first single that ptoceeds went to his AIDS Foundation.

[@sadfaery]

Yep. The Last Song is so beautiful and poignant and powerful at the same time.

[@kimdilworth3575]

I love all of his songs. This one makes me wanna cry.😢😢😢

[@lundberga]

This song tears me up sometimes. What a brilliant song.

[@fitzgivesfits1]

"I don't want to go on with you like that, "Blessed", "Club at the end of the street".

[@markharris1125]

'Club' is on Sleeping With the Past - the whole album is brilliant. Love Stone's Throw From Hurtin'. That one would throw our hosts for a loop.

[@scottvanhille5688]

Elton is a legend. His music will never die. This one gave me "Circle Of Life" vibes.

[@lenward4559]

Agree, I believe they both were written in the early 90's

[@ParaisoAbandonware]

the lion king song right? thought it was just me

[@CraigH-ep5db]

My wife’s and my first dance at our wedding in ‘92. Love this song.

[@petercourtien4581]

My good friends had it as their wedding song in ‘92. Bet a lot of couples did.

[@bjdefilippo447]

congrats on 20+ years!

[@mitchrobinson3076]

"In Neon", "Chloe", "Sartorial Eloquence", "Elton's Song" are all amazing and all too often overlooked songs by the great Elton John.

[@MrSteveLoucks]

Ooooh. Sartorial Eloquence is such a perfect song.

[@aks4204]

Sir Elton is the best!

[@Pickersgill48]

One of my favourite songs of Elton

[@user-or1ye3iz6d]

This is one of my favorite songs of his. The other 2 favorites are "SACRIFICE" (original video) and "SORRY SEEMS TO BE THE HARDEST WORD" (live in Sydney with Melbourne symphony Orchestra 1986)... this version is out of this world!!!!) ❤️❤️❤️

[@paulguise698]

I like Candle in the wind from the same concert

[@BAF-db8ps]

❤One of the best songs ever written! A true masterpiece. In my top 3 EJ songs alongside with Circle of Life and Yellow Brick Road, all 3 hits me so hard emotionally every time I hear them

[@joestrock8587]

One of his best

[@allendixon7700]

I I am getting I i h r l b I l l y

[@queenbeedat8726]

Beautiful perfect wedding song..❤

[@priestpega]

"Healing Hands" is his most powerful song from the 90s. A huge hit too.

[@andrewkelley434]

I was going to recommend this same song! Such an under-rated song of his and so powerful!!

[@FrankUli]

Hands down Goodbye Yellow Brick Road album is my Fav of all his volumes of work, can't ever go wrong with EJ.

[@rockero1313]

this is ONE of the most beautiful Taupin/John songs ever. the instrumentation (specially the piano) is amazing, the lyrics are perfect, and that Ocean Sounds at the beginning just take you to another place. Definitely ONE of their best.

[@williamdevoe4819]

My fav: TINY DANCER ! Can never get enough of that song !

[@davidkeech9738]

This is my fave Elton song!!! So glad you finally got tomit.

[@FLmickey90]

Elton John is just amazing. Great music for so many years! Anytime I hear him on the radio when going through the stations, I stop every time!!!

[@alanmusicman3385]

Pure quality from Elton - thanks for covering this- one of the best pop tracks of the 1990s.

[@jennyjenny4501]

Grey Seal is my favorite Elton John song. Highly recommend!

[@exalkalibor924]

My favorite elton john song. This is epic. Masterpeice.

[@brianbooher3999]

Thank you for checking out this timeless classic by Elton John! This was on the radio when I was in high school back in 1992 and became my favorite Elton John song. Gotta say though, The Last Song also on this album is an amazing masterpiece as well and I hope you get to check it out very soon!

[@YolandaAnneBrown95726]

I love listening to "The One" over and over again for insane times because it's just so incredibly deep. And the music just hits you so intensely in the feels.

[@dranet47]

Love this song. I sang the chorus to my daughter when she was a baby, so this brings a lot of sweet memories to my mind. You should listen to Blessed, too.

[@stevebyrne6537]

Thanks guys, that one was our first dance song for my wife and I at our wedding in 1992. Thanks for the nice memory😊

[@jasonaugustine3370]

In the instant that you love someone In the second that the hammer hits Reality runs up your spine And the pieces finally fit The most accurate description of falling in true love I have ever heard ❤️

[@JanineNusca]

Elton John’s The Last Song is one that brings me to tears every time. Amber, you will love it!

[@lokolad3541]

Amber's Smile 😊 say all you need to know about one of Elton John's most Beautiful songs 💛

[@milkspan2604]

musical genius...... sooo beautiful

[@VallaMusic]

This song has always been a particular favorite of mine. Great romantic love song, but also has a mysterious, almost otherworldly quality to it as well.

[@terifringer8560]

I love the line "reality runs up your spine"!

[@MetryTyger]

Great choice Amber and Jay. My suggestions for more Elton are: "Ticking" and "Indian Sunset". (1) Ticking is an INCREDIBLE piano and organ and harpischord story-telling piece that is HAUNTING. It is from the Caribou album (Bitch is Back, Don't Let the Sun) and Jordon, this is YOUR PIANO masterpiece :) Indian Sunset is also a story-telling piece about the plight of the early American Indians and is a MIND-BOGGLING orchestral-arranged feast. Elton starts out this one singing a cappella. BOTH of these are absolute MASTERPIECES from Bernie and Elton! Some of the greatest lyrics by Bernie EVER. thanks for all the pleasurable reactions!!! Bill

[@8tomtoms8]

So many great songs to choose from when it comes to Elton.. "Believe" is a one of my favs.. The official video is fantastic!!

[@iangrant3615]

Believe is really underrated.

[@annieberry4008]

​​@@iangrant3615I agree. I love Believe. I'd love if they would react to it.

[@howieroarke]

Agreed. The best video of his and a really great song!

[@TheNotedHero]

One of his best! The chord progression is just so good! You guys still have to react to Elton singing with George Michael live in concert. The video's titled "George Michael, Elton John - Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me (Live)".

[@ernestclowers1431]

Hi.....I'm a new viewer from Richmond, Virginia. I came across you two videos two days ago and you two are great! It's nice to see young people enjoy music that I love listening too. Keep up the great work and I will keep watching and might even suggest so more music for you two!❤

[@Bumperump]

Wow, I haven't heard this song in over 20yrs, I'd forgotten how much I love it. Thanks for the reaction, guys!

[@sueradak2245]

Don't forget the beautiful poetry and imagery of Bernie Taupin. The words are amazing.❤

[@annieberry4008]

I agree 💯

[@289hipo]

Bernie Taupin's lyrical magic shining like a supernova on this one. Those two were a match made in heaven. Can't think of another lyricist/musician combo that comes close to the size of their catalog of top 10 hits

[@BillGraper]

Your next Elton John song has to be "Harmony." It was the B-side to "Bennie And The Jets." I listened to it so much as a kid on my record player. The melody in the chorus is so amazing! Just make sure it's not a live version. I've seen him sing it live on KZbin. The studio version is perfection!

[@MrSteveLoucks]

Same here! I listened to Harmony just as much as Bennie!

[@BillGraper]

@@MrSteveLoucks Yep! Me too! I wore both sides of that 45 out. ☝️😎

[@MrSteveLoucks]

@@BillGraper I still have my 45, 50 years later. It was one of the first 45s I ever bought!

[@thesugarlipslove]

love this one. the live version piano solo on this is epic if you ever get the chance to watch it. one of my fave elton you havent heard yet is "this train dont stop here anymore". worth a listen

[@annieberry4008]

I agree! I love the music video for it. Justin Timberlake plays Elton, Paul Reubens is the guy in the suit (aka Pee Wee Herman. RIP)

[@madious6547]

I love you for react this song, thank you guys.❤❤❤

[@lauriebarrett6789]

Elton John - "Song For Guy". It's a mostly instrumental tribute to 17 year old Guy Burchett who was a messenger for Elton's Rocket Records. Guy died in a motorcycle accident. It's from 1978.

[@ariannakhrystynakahnn9873]

I love how Elton sings and sets music to Bernie’s words. I’m a “baby boomer” and remember the first time hearing Elton John. It was “Your Song”. “Border Song” was also good on that album. I’m glad he’s given credit to Bernie Taupin. I learned of an earlier album called with a song called “Empty Sky” which I really liked. It’s a fast paced good old rock n roll sound. I also love “Where To Now St Peter” from the Tumbleweed Connection album. It’s really worth listening to. Throughout the years, Elton John, has had other projects, on his own, I really loved. It’s been hard to choose a favorite over the years.

[@tonymonk1965]

Eltons songs always have a huge production behind them.

[@magicmike7198]

The lyrics, the lyrics, the lyrics.... Bernie and Elton are up there in the Pantheon.

[@leahsunbury9639]

Elton always delivers! This is one of my favourites. Have you listened to Daniel? One of my other favs from Sir Elton John. He just has a way of setting a mood.

[@bearzilla2462]

This was the procession song at my wedding in 1997. We both loved this song then and I do even more nowadays. She passed away in 2010 and it brings a tear to my eyes thinking of those wonderful memories.

[@wentibbetts7833]

I can hear a flavor of Circle of Life in this I'd not heard b4. He does not disappoint. Love EJ!

[@peteross1246]

IMO the best Elton John song ever.

[@mikefixx7177]

You don't hear good quality music anymore. This was pleasure to my ears.

[@jackieburchell2187]

Yesss with such eeeaasss listening to Elton when he sings these ballads SIR ELTON JOHN❤😊❤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@timmcgrath9708]

Those first few lines are beautiful

[@esclad]

Another great track from Elton (around the same time) is 'Healing Hands'.

[@BathtubBass]

The lead single to the album "The One." This was the first album Elton put out after his time in rehab in 1990 and with it a reborn sound and feeling to his music, I'd say, in my opinion, his music became much more wholesome and meaningful after rehab, this was also around the time he was with his future husband David Furnish whom he's still happily married to! A new Elton and a new sound, fantastic!

[@MichaelStoneArt]

This song is pure poetry set to music. For me, I hear the story of, not a man and woman's love, but the love of two men. It seems so clear to me.

[@lucytaylor3139]

This was our song we danced to at our wedding in 1997 still love it very special place in our hearts I'm lucky to still feel so in love ❤️ with my husband xx

[@Scooterboi60]

Also saw your reaction to Carpenters “This Masquerade” and acknowledging Leon Russell. Leon was in the audience in 1970 at The Troubadour for Elton’s debut. He then invited Elton to tour with him in 1971. Elton was listening to some Leon tracks in 2009 and that prompted him to contact him. The result was an album released in 2010 of the two of them with lyrics written by Bernie and Leon. Leon had brain surgery during the recording sessions and the album debuted at #3 on the Billboard hot 200 charts. My favourite from the album is “Hey Ahab.”

[@PDXFilmmongers]

How many times after an Elton song with many comments mentioning "Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding" until it finally gets a listen 😅

[@sharkbjs]

After a shaky time with just OK music in the 80s, this song and album really restored my faith in E.J. It makes sense that it was his first album recorded after he became sober.

[@claviclenotch1876]

Thats some amazing piano from Sir Elton

[@donnawallace9938]

I love this song so much!!

[@DavidKing-ut9wr]

You must here his song Blue Eyes. The best video is with him in a white hat, outside at the beach on a white piano. Beyond beautiful

[@brucedillinger9448]

This song, and the album from which it came, was a breath of fresh air. Imo, it was a return to form for Elton especially the more piano-centric pieces. ✌

[@michaelpayne8000]

Grew up with listening to Elton.."Someone Saved My Life Tonight" "Philadelphia Freedom" and "Blue Eyes" are 3 of my all-time favourites..He's definitely a musical genius along with lyrasist Bernie Taupin..🎤🎶🎵🎸👍😄🤘

[@HollywoodBob39]

That piano and synth (I believe) at the end, is one of the most beautiful melodies of all time. I only wish they continued it for another 5 minutes!

[@bunnyheywood]

Love EJ since 1974!! My favorite music of his is 1983 and back. This is one of a few of his songs after 1983 that i really love to listen too. It gives me vibes of his older music. I have every EJ album from 1969 to present. Loyal fan of his for forty years!! 🎶 🎹🎹🎹🎹 🎶

[@beedeegee9374]

My favorite Elton/Bernie song is YOUR SONG, it is also the first Elton/Bernie song I ever heard as a young teen in 1971. Over the years I collected most of his albums.

[@stormy8207]

Water is the symbol for emotion. So yes, very profound.

[@helindove2237]

I had forgotten about this song until I heard it again a few weeks ago. “All I ever needed was the one, like freedom fields where wild horses run.” Elton John had a strong connection with the lyrics. That had to do with his private life and the phase he was in. 5:10 Not her, but him in this case, even though you see a man and a woman in the video. Elton now has two children with his husband of 10 years.

[@robertorojasbalarezo]

this song hits you right in the feelings

[@tmr626]

Two more real good Elton John ballads that you may not have heard before are "Blessed" and "Believe."

[@annieberry4008]

I agree!

[@bookhouseboy280]

One of my faves by Sir Elton. Many have praised the songwriting, musical diversity, and emotional depth in this album. Among the other standouts are the hits "Runaway Train" (with Eric Clapton), "Simple Life", and "The Last Song."

[@ParaisoAbandonware]

the piano and the guitar at the end... mind blowing

[@GCOE63]

This tour is the one and only time I saw Elton John and it was mesmerizing. Few bands give you that feeling live.

[@imsirius2]

Another formulaic song from the Elton John hit machine. Please react to Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding for an amazing different sounding song.

[@goldilox369]

It's funny, my 1st husband was into metal & prog rock. But we used to "show each other" music. I actually got him to admit Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding was an excellent song! ❤

[@jeanzounia9094]

Une chanson magnifique qui réveille les émotions ❤
