Even though during this period he was using drugs and drinking, he gives a very moving and charismatic performance. I don't know how to reconcile it. He is a great, great emotive performer.
Never would Sir Elton fake it people, this is THE MAN....get real....When an Artist gives like this, shame on all of you....can you not see? or hear...? Now that's some funny stuff.."he's wasted"?? I would love to see you perform on a talk show, alone on the stage, and put out this product wasted...c'mon now....stop embarassing yourselves...rotfl....
@@salvadorealiberto Darling, once again: The Song "A Word In Spanish" shown in this Video is on the album "Reg Strikes Back" (1988). "Reg Strikes Back" was entirely recorded at AIR in London. The follow up album "Sleeping With The Past" (1989) was recorded in Denmark .
Amazing quality here! Thanks for the upload. I actually really like this song, and this is one of the cleaner vocals I've heard during this period. Just wish Elton was so hard to look at in these final pre-rehab years! :)
He’s not lip-synching Jesus Christ, and there’s many more performances of his where he has a backtrack with the music but it’s his live voice on stage with the piano or the synthesizer.
@weaseldoc13 No he is not lipsigning K, you can see that from the fact that when he goes a bit further than the mic hsi voice is not so loud :) And it doesn sound different than the studio version in some points.
@weaseldoc13 Not even close to Lip- syncing!Watch same show him singing Town of Plenty!backing track only!Just notice when he adds little bits and pieces that don't belong on the original and you will then realize he isn't faking it!By the way!Elton never needed to fake it,except for in bed!
@1caninelover I think in interviews he'd said by that time he was no longer really having fun with it. He was not quite as bad yet but he'd gotten to a point in 89 and 90 where he was drinking, snorting, and smoking weed at a constant rate.
This is making me smile, I simply cannot help it. Very attractive to me is his look, his charisma, and his genius. Lovely eyes. I could go on, lol
Мне было 16😢, так обожала этот клип, который крутили по телевизору по каналу вечерниму... А сейчас 23 год на дворе❤
Странно, но этой песни нет ни в одном Бест альбоме. Вот приходиться сидеть и делать свой. 😁🥳

My boyfriend says he actually does do this one when playing in Spain. I do agree he needs to rediscover his 80's catalog for live performance.

Good times - an Englishman, singing about Spanish, on French TV, from a record made in Denmark.
This track is on "Reg Strikes Back". The follow up album "Sleeping With The Past" was recorded in Denmark.
This definitely wasn't.
@@stud2578 Darling, read closely - "from a record made in Denmark."

@@stud2578 Thank you for this.
I love the actual video to this song I love this song
I've loved Elton John since the 70s...I was a kid...this song is so beautiful
Powerful Performance...
Always the best of the best
Te amo . Esto es arte .!!!! Gracias por existir

I think this was actually February 1989.
Yes, no lip-synching here.
I don´t know if he plays live but he seems to sing live and he sounds fantastic here.
He's absolutely not lip-syncing...
If it's a lip-sync, it's the most perfectly mimed I've ever seen. I'll go with "live vocal." There are noticeable differences from the studio version.
backing trak onlyyyyyyyyyyy! he sang one of the best live versions of Your Song in that same show!
This is live, no doubt about it.
you can see it clearly by the plugged Keyboard
The song itself is studio, the vocals however were live-
Пушка!!!! Сэр Элтон колбасу режет!!!
I honestly don't think there is a clip out there with him lip syncing. In this case, he is singing to a taped music track.

A Word In Spanish (Live French TV 1989)
i wonder if he had to re-train his vocal after the surgery
Could the walk to the piano have been longer? Yes, but not by much.
1989 champs-elyees
@1caninelover fair enough. I was merely commenting on his frail and pale appearance.
what? vocal sounds nothing like the original album verson
@1caninelover well I'm very glad you over came your nightmare. I'm only 22 so I've not been in your position. Hopefully I never will.
He must have aged well in the 90s. He looked quite young in comparison, at the Ephesus show.

How strange, huh, guys? It's definitely NOT the studio-album version, but he's still lip-syncing... Weird - but we love it! :D
This is not lip-synced dude
He's totally lip-syncing. Not live.
This is live singing to a backtrack!
