    I went to one of his concerts yesterday (14/06/2009) and he started the show with this song like he did here and i must say it was bloody fantastic. Go Elton - He always puts on a gr8 show.

    Que sentimientos, qué sensibilidad, que emotividad, ¡QUÉ RABIA! Cómo se puede expresar tanto con la música. Sólo Elton John sabe hacerlo……………….

    Agreed, mate.

    That buzzy,brassy ARP that comes in @ 0:41 is just the Bomb, even to this day. And the whole piece shows that Elton certainly had talent as an arranger as well as a writer of pop songs, as he beautifully melded this whole song together. Brings back lotsa memories, and still sounds great today. Thanks for the video !!! Peace:)

    My best friend died 10 years and after the graveside service. I got in my car to leave and as soon as I started the car, this song began to play on the radio from note one. Every hair on body stood straight up and still does thinking about it. It is very rare to hear this song on the radio.

    Thanks for posting the video. My dad is in heaven now and this song reminds me of my best friend that I lost…my dad!

  24. leebees30 on July 4th, 2009 10:23 am
