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.
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.
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.
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. 💖
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!
Great suggestion @MrSteveLoucks and @63saruman ua-cam.com/video/NPiY81uCxHg/v-deo.html Just notice a 2002 version too - big production wow ua-cam.com/video/iGqrXHMfXpw/v-deo.html
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!!
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.
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!
❤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
Elton John is a timeless talent. Just like Beethoven, Mozart, Shakespeare, Van Gogh and others timeless artists are still relevant today, Elton John's music will still be relevant 300-400 years from now.
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!!!!) ❤️❤️❤️
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.
I recommend every time you do Elton, his duet with George Michael. "Don't let the Sun go down on Me" it will blow you away. Trust me. Much love from England 🏴
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.
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!! 🎶 🎹🎹🎹🎹 🎶
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)".
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.
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!
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
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
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 UA-cam. The studio version is perfection!
I was about 9 years old when I discovered Elton John, in 1973. He made my childhood, in his music and his theatricality. Who made my early manhood was Peter Gabriel, beginning in the early 80s. I would love it if you, who are among my top favourite reacters, would react to more Peter Gabriel, solo and with the band he co-founded, Genesis. --Oron of Montreal
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.
One of many top 10 from Elton John this song reached number 9 on Billboard pop singles chart in 1992 guys Philadelphia Freedom was one of his biggest hits it's was also on the Billboard R&B charts fun fact about this song Elton sang this song on the music and Dance show Soul Train on May 20 1975 . his other number one song that year was Island Girl and in 1979 he had a top ten song called Mama Can't buy you love guys you will like these songs just as much as his other hit songs keep up the great work guys.
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
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.
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.
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.
I had this album, on cassette, and it is beautiful...many years ago, I lent this to my now late Mother and she loved it...said that there wasn't one bad song on the entire album and there isn't ❤
Want a love song from Elton that will make you melt? Album: Songs From The West Coast Year: 2001 Song: Original Sin The video is of a fangirls dream, but the song... liquid gold ❤
Glad you guys did this one. It's one of my favourite Elton songs. Just that build up it goes to at the end sends chills down my spine. So good! Keep em coming!
This was a big one for Elton John. The more you hear it, the better it gets. I agree with comment below. "Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding". Classic!
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.
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! ❤
Most concert tickets sold in the last 40 years... Elton #5: #1: U2 = 26M+ #2: Dave Matthews Band = 23M+ #3: Rolling Stones = 22M+ #4: Bruce Springsteen = 20M+ #5: Elton John = 19M+ On the channel: U2 = 10+ reactions Dave = 1 reaction Stones = 20+ reactions Bruce = 3 reactions Elton = 30 reactions More Dave and Bruce please!!!!

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.
The Last Song is my favourite of Elton's, very poignant and so underrated, deserves more air play than it gets.
This masterpiece is the most underrated song of his IMO.
My favorite Elton John song.
Mine, too! "Candle In the Wind" is a close second.
Mine too.❤
Mine too ❤
The Last Song on that same album will bring you to tears
That song is so underrated.
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.
My uncle is a huge fan of Elton John. He recently is battling Alzheimers.

C'est tellement touchant. Que Dieu vous bénisse ❤
Great song and overlooked. Listen to this tune frequently
Part of the ’90s renaissance of Elton after he got sober. It’s extremely beautiful.
Sir Elton is so talented! “Levon” is still my favorite!!🤘🔥
Indian Sunset is mine!
Same incredible album, Madman Across the Water.
@@bkm2797 Front to back. It is impossible to pick a favorite song, but my favorite Elton era is '69-75.
Agreed, amazing tunes and great albums, Elton and Bernie were at the top!
This is one of my favorite Elton John songs
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!
They should react to Sir Elton's live performance of it on Soul Train.
@@63saruman I couldn’t agree more. Such a classic performance!
Great suggestion @MrSteveLoucks and @63saruman ua-cam.com/video/NPiY81uCxHg/v-deo.html
Just notice a 2002 version too - big production wow ua-cam.com/video/iGqrXHMfXpw/v-deo.html
This song tears me up sometimes. What a brilliant song.
Jay & Amber, you'll love his "Philadelphia Freedom" and "Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding" !!!! (i'm guessing on the blocked list?)
Everyone else has reacted to it
Why? They acted like entitled youtubers with canned comments.
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!!
She just might play into that lust of yours. Just a theory.
Besides Harmony this is probably my favorite Elton John song. Elton's piano playing is sublime.
I walked down the wedding isle to this song. I love it, it’s beautiful.
"Salvation" and "Ticking" by Elton are a must listen when you are ready to be blown away!
Tickin' is a the best song on the Caribou album, one of his best, gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.
@@davidrold9770 Yes sir and me as well.
Thank you for playing this beautiful song. Elton John never fails to please and this has always been one of my favorite songs.
Elton is a legend. His music will never die. This one gave me "Circle Of Life" vibes.
Agree, I believe they both were written in the early 90's
Have always loved the chord progression in this song - Elton is SO VERY TALENTED!! MAD RESPECT!!! HUGS, YA'LL!!
Still gives me Goosebumps! Just sooo beautiful & romantic - his vocals with the music is just perfection!
My favorite Elton John song. Some of the most beautiful lyrics ever written.
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.
Yep. The Last Song is so beautiful and poignant and powerful at the same time.
One of my favourite songs of Elton
Sir Elton is the best!
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!
musical genius...... sooo beautiful
"I don't want to go on with you like that, "Blessed", "Club at the end of the street".
'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.
I just love to hear him play the piano. Hearing anything he does live is amazing. This is one of my favorites from him.
One of his best
I I am getting I i h r l b I l l y
❤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
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!
He’s the most amazing. Has done it for so long, never dried up.
My wife’s and my first dance at our wedding in ‘92. Love this song.
My good friends had it as their wedding song in ‘92. Bet a lot of couples did.
congrats on 20+ years!
How many times after an Elton song with many comments mentioning "Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding" until it finally gets a listen 😅
Seriously, there's not one bad song by Elton John!! His vocals are just amazing all around❣️
I could live without "Jamaica Jerk Off", but other than that, his catalog is really solid.
Elton John is a timeless talent. Just like Beethoven, Mozart, Shakespeare, Van Gogh and others timeless artists are still relevant today, Elton John's music will still be relevant 300-400 years from now.
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!!!!) ❤️❤️❤️
I like Candle in the wind from the same concert
"In Neon", "Chloe", "Sartorial Eloquence", "Elton's Song" are all amazing and all too often overlooked songs by the great Elton John.
Ooooh. Sartorial Eloquence is such a perfect song.
Hands down Goodbye Yellow Brick Road album is my Fav of all his volumes of work, can't ever go wrong with EJ.
"Healing Hands" is his most powerful song from the 90s. A huge hit too.
I was going to recommend this same song! Such an under-rated song of his and so powerful!!
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.
I recommend every time you do Elton, his duet with George Michael. "Don't let the Sun go down on Me" it will blow you away. Trust me. Much love from England 🏴
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.
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!! 🎶 🎹🎹🎹🎹 🎶
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!!!
Beautiful perfect wedding song..❤
My fav: TINY DANCER ! Can never get enough of that song !
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)".
Grey Seal is my favorite Elton John song.
Highly recommend!
You simply cannot go wrong with Sir Elton.
The lyrics, the lyrics, the lyrics.... Bernie and Elton are up there in the Pantheon.
I love all of his songs. This one makes me wanna cry.😢😢😢
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.

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.
Pure quality from Elton - thanks for covering this- one of the best pop tracks of the 1990s.
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
Elton John's music was timeless just like Rod Stewart, Billy Joel, Michael McDonald and Tina Turner.
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
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)
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 UA-cam. The studio version is perfection!
Same here! I listened to Harmony just as much as Bennie!
@@MrSteveLoucks Yep! Me too! I wore both sides of that 45 out. ☝️😎
@@BillGraper I still have my 45, 50 years later. It was one of the first 45s I ever bought!

So many great songs to choose from when it comes to Elton.. "Believe" is a one of my favs.. The official video is fantastic!!
Believe is really underrated.
@@iangrant3615I agree. I love Believe. I'd love if they would react to it.
Agreed. The best video of his and a really great song!
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.
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
One of many top 10 from Elton John this song reached number 9 on Billboard pop singles chart in 1992 guys Philadelphia Freedom was one of his biggest hits it's was also on the Billboard R&B charts fun fact about this song Elton sang this song on the music and Dance show Soul Train on May 20 1975 . his other number one song that year was Island Girl and in 1979 he had a top ten song called Mama Can't buy you love guys you will like these songs just as much as his other hit songs keep up the great work guys.
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!
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.

I love the line "reality runs up your spine"!
IMO the best Elton John song ever.

The video is of a fangirls dream, but the song... liquid gold ❤
This is my fave Elton song!!! So glad you finally got tomit.
Echo Beach by Martha and the Muffins. Canada's answer to the Go-Go's. Outstanding tune!
In the instant that you love someone
In the second that the hammer hits
Reality runs up your spine
And the pieces finally fit
Glad you guys did this one. It's one of my favourite Elton songs. Just that build up it goes to at the end sends chills down my spine. So good! Keep em coming!
The lyrics of this song are the best description of falling in love with someone that I have ever heard
You don't hear good quality music anymore. This was pleasure to my ears.
Wow, I haven't heard this song in over 20yrs, I'd forgotten how much I love it. Thanks for the reaction, guys!
Thats some amazing piano from Sir Elton
Gosh it was lovely watching where reaction ,never seen her smile so much
More Elton - "I don't wanna go on with you like that".
Pino Palladinos’ bass playing, timeless!
You can't go wrong with any Elton John song. My favorite is Simple Life.
I can hear a flavor of Circle of Life in this I'd not heard b4.
He does not disappoint. Love EJ!
Yes ,beautiful song from Elton John. Another good one to check out is a song called 'Religion'-Colin Ward
Tiny Dancer is my favorite since a teenager in the 70's!
I love you for react this song, thank you guys.❤❤❤
This was a big one for Elton John. The more you hear it, the better it gets. I agree with comment below. "Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding". Classic!
