I heard this live back in 1976 and it floored me then and still floors me now. Making it all the more special is knowing Elton performed it at young AIDS victim Ryan White's funeral gratis. He became very close with the family and with Ryan as he slowly lost his battle to AIDS, which he got from a blood transfusion. It was Ryans death that got Elton to assess his own lifestyle and go into rehab.
Obviously, the spanish voice is an interpretation of what Elton is saying...no big deal... Not everyone speaks English. - - Incredible piece of music; one of my favorites. Thanks for posting this!
Elton's voice was in a higher register when he was younger. I guess that's normal for it to drop in later years. Plus, he had surgery on his vocal cords at one point. Great song. I love the original off of Empty Sky the best. Reminds me of being a kid.
"Skyline Pidgeon" é de um disco do mesmo ano cujo título é: "Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player: 1973", eu tinha dez anos nessa época, nunca tinha visto a cara do cara, porque tv naquela época era artigo de luxo, e vc de vinte e cinco com um tremendo bom gosto. Mas deixa-me dizer que eu penso que o melhor dele está nesta época...nos anos setenta
This is such a beautiful song...always makes me cry. Elton sang this song at Ryan White's funeral...may his sweet soul rest in peace.
The best live version of this I've heard yet on here

I remember this tour. I loved it, even though - as he said - I didn't know some of the songs. He played smaller venues and put on an outstanding show.
Quite simply, I love this song.
I hate that Empty Sky didn't really get the recognition it deserved. This is a great song!
The only under-rated song by Elton John.

Well, the audience is here to listen to English songs.. I'm sure he knows English, what the purpose of this annoying translator?
He is far from being genius. Musician and I prefer to say nothing more.
