Taron also sang “Your Song” to get into music school apparently. Also, the reason he was cast into this role was because he was recognised by Elton John during the filming of Kingsman: The Golden Circle.
Rockerman was a great movie. Many didn’t get it. I loved it. Particularly if you understand what EJ went through with his addictions. Im an alcoholic 14 yrs sober. Here is one of the most talented people ever, who almost lost everything to his addictions but overcame and put his life back together.
Wonder if he and his mother are still on the outs. I wonder if she really did try to blame him for ruining her crappy marriage to his father. That scene where his father says, "Don't you ever touch my records again" was like a sudden arctic blast with that contempt and hostility in his voice. I remember being spoken to that way on a regular basis by the so-called adults in my life when I was little; it's like being slapped, especially when you're trying to reach out to them.
Because oscars are useless and meaningless recognition driven by insiders owing other insiders favors. The problem with oscars isn't who gets nominated and wins. The problem is that people even care about the farce.
They didn't use this at the end of the movie--it's an alternate version. It confused me because I couldn't tell if the video was all a recreation or original. I think they should have used this version instead.
I love this mix of the movie and Elton himself. As someone who grew up in the 70s and loved Elton, this movie was such a joy. And Taron did a great job.
Grandissima l'interpretazione di Elton!!! Top,top... Ecco come finisce BENE questo bellissimo film su Elton John😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤dove ad un tratto arriva Lui ....il vero e unico Elton, con un video bellissimo...❤❤❤bravissimi tutti 😂❤😂❤❤😂❤
@@growlusnotneeded3251 In the second part, the first half was Taron. I didn't know Sir Elton John himself CHOSE Taron for the part, that must've been such a huge moment for him
I admire Elton John. Unfortunately I never saw him live in concert. But he inspired me and touched my heart and soul. Wish him joy and hapiness with his family. ❤
I've watched Rocketman, it's a fantastic Bio Pic. And boy, what a bad guy his father was. I just couldn't grasp, how in the world a man can treat his own son like that?
OMG! I just watched the movie 🚀 Rocketman and it was excellent! I've been listening to Elton John since my teens. When I found this vid, I didn't know it was Taron in the beginning! 😳 He did a marvelous job! 👏 Happy the movie ended with this song. I've been singing it thru all of my good and particularly bad times. Glad Sir Elton found his much deserved true happiness! 🌈🤩👑🎹✌️
The most amazing thing about the movie Rocketman is that Taron Edgerton did all his own singing. Elton John, a living legend. One of the all time greatest musical artists.
You could never know what its like Your blood like winter freezes just like ice And theres a cold lonely light that shines from you Youll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use And did you think this fool could never win Well look at me, Im coming back again I got a taste of love in a simple way And if you need to know while Im still standing you just fade away Dont you know Im still standing better than I ever did Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid Im still standing after all this time Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind Im still standing yeah yeah yeah Im still standing yeah yeah yeah Once I never could hope to win You starting down the road leaving me again The threats you made were meant to cut me down And if our love was just a circus youd be a clown by now
Truly scene that i should depict on my body as a sincere expression of my relatability with this melody and lyrics,this should be deeply engraved on my own skin,every pinch of pain will be remainder how absolutely masterpiece this song is
One day I will be able to thing this great song and mean every word. Until then, I will continue to listen to this amazing music and admire the artist.
Fuckin' hell, this song has always been a banger BUT this version is EVEN BETTER, and goddamn, if anyone asked which was my favourite song ever, I couldn't pick from the few hundred which I LOVE TO DEATH, but man... This would be up there.
Although I'm not gay, this has been one of my favorite Elton John songs for a very long time. Rocketman was an excellent movie. Didn't know Sir Elton had such a severe drug and alcohol addiction.
I was in my bedroom with friend listening to the album, Yellowbrick Road in the early 1920s. The phone rang. My Mom answered it. Came to the bottom of the stairway after about ten minutes. Said the call was for me. As I spoke with my best friend at that time, she told me her brother committed suicide by shooting himself in his mouth in his bedroom. Funeral For a Friend was playing during that time. He had cancer and couldn't deal with it. I've known him since Kindergarten since 1964. I will see him again when I go to Heaven. 💔🙏😇😢
I actually liked how Elton John danced and moved in the original music video better than Taron Edgerton did. Elton was more natural in his motions, while Taron seemed to be mugging for the camera at times.

Don’t forget to sing an Elton John song for your successful audition for performing arts school

14 years? That's incredible 👏
You're amazing for that my friend, and EJ was to. He had almost everything but happiness and selfcontrol, but he overcome it all. Amazing
I read that wrong at first. Read, "I'm an alcoholic 14 yr old. Sober." at first and then had to reread. Congrats though,
I still don't know why Taron Edgerton didn't get an oscar nod for this.
I totally agree 👍
He did. He just didnt win tho
He wasn't gay

Can we get a round of applause for Taron Edgerton
*applauding emotionally*
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Yes indeed!
BRAVO!!!!
Excellent I like how they incorporate the original version of this song classic 80’s music.!!!

@@rainamoonastrology14 They used a lot of the original video in the movie, but they remastered it so as to look better and fit the modern recordings.
Boss
Yes when I heard it was coming out I was oh no. Then I heard it and was pleasantly surprised
This movie was what made me officially become an Elton John fan.
Same actually
Me too!
Welcome to the party!
thats depressing, you must have never heard elton john before
@@ensabrenur no I heard of him, I just never knew how much music he actually made.
I've been coming back to this version every couple of weeks... I love the slow buildup.. There's such a beautiful feel to it..
I love this mix of the movie and Elton himself. As someone who grew up in the 70s and loved Elton, this movie was such a joy. And Taron did a great job.

Everything Elton touches turns to gold! Genius ❤️
Hand picked to play the part by Elton John himself after working with him in Kingsman 2. Did a great job
No...that was actually Sir Elton.
I woulda figure it’s because Taron is the voice of Johnny in Sing, who also sings I’m still standing
@@growlusnotneeded3251 In the second part, the first half was Taron.

Elton John is an amazing performer.
This isn't Elton John
@@JamievanZutphen the actual music video is Elton
I admire Elton John. Unfortunately I never saw him live in concert. But he inspired me and touched my heart and soul. Wish him joy and hapiness with his family. ❤
Saw this on TV. The next day I went and bought the DVD. Fabulous.
This version gets better every time! The blend between movie and original perfectly captures Elton's incredible journey. 🎵✨
Ok
I love these song and many others of Elton John and I trully love him...
Kisses from Brasil! 🌹
Bro u know Elton John is still alive today right?
This adds so much to the story arc of the song seeing this slowed intro showing the begining to the eventual glow up
I LOVE THIS SONG

The timing is brilliant
listening to this while doing all the forgotten assignments at the middle of the night because tommorow is the deadline... very cool
Mi hija de 15 años.. Se obsesióno con elthon por esta escena.. Otra generación con buenos gustos musicales..... Gracias.... ❤❤❤
Taron not having an Oscar for this role is a crime. A crime.
Elton John is one of the greatest singer of all times and there aren't that many of them.
I always kinda cry at this scene
Omg me too
same haha
It’s the way the song is sung
Edgerton doesn't play Elton John, HE IS Elton John in this movie (voice, attitude...)
He deserved an oscar
he's a true talent
AMAZING ELTON JOHN , saludos desde Perú, que sigan los éxitos 🎉🎉🎉i
Love you Elton. Never saw you live on stage, but you are incredibly strong to me
Loved the movie and Elton's music
0:49 me after getting insulted by a kid in a wheelchair
The original video is shot so well. A fantastic visualization of the music.
I can’t stop listening to this it’s too good
realizing Taron was playing Elton John, I now have a theory that Elton John was once an agent of the Kingsmen
Which explains why he was in Kingsmen: The Golden Circle
A special thank you to Sir Elton John. Please keep giving you are a game changer.
Man.......DONT YOU KNOW IM STILL STANDING,BETTER THEN I EVER DID.ITS SO GOOD
This is so neat :) Love it.
From a fighter to a singer !
Now that’s a actor/performer !

Exelente lo moderno y lo clásico siempre Elton gracias por descubrir esta bella canción.
My gosh.. there is *so much feeling* in the first part here, far more so than when Elton takes over.
This is my favourite version of this song.
This is an masterpiece 🥹🤧
I've watched Rocketman, it's a fantastic Bio Pic. And boy, what a bad guy his father was.
I just couldn't grasp, how in the world a man can treat his own son like that?
Tarons performance when he was back in the car watching his father carry his half brother was moving.
so good. so f'ing good. Made me tear up. Thank you!
OMG! I just watched the movie 🚀 Rocketman and it was excellent! I've been listening to Elton John since my teens.

Yeah untl Elton starts singing...he's just on another level of talent.
After covid we still be standing here like a true survivor!!!
This was beautiful.
He deserves Oscar for this
That video of Taron Egerton dancing to the Bee Gees was hilarious
Thank you I actually found the correct version from the shorts. I really enjoyed this cover.
Elton John is the absolute best ever. I love Rocketman. Love the way he is still standing
Great way to closed the movie with this awesome song.
I love the freeze frame shots of people leaping in mid air.
Bravo Taron❤Elton sei l' orgoglio della musica 💕
I LOVE ELTON AND NOW I LOVE TARON
Pov: You caught Matpat doing side quest back in time.

I love this version... and I love, love, loooooooooooooove this song!!!
Very entertaining and fun to watch. Thanks for posting this.
He did a fantastic job at playing Elton John
The fact that Taron wasn't even nomintated for an Oscar, let alone win it-is a travesty.
Taron Edgerton ♥️♥️♥️ did a wonderful job ..
Brings /a=s to my eyes knowing that we will never see elton john sing and that song was like it just came out this year
The most amazing thing about the movie Rocketman is that Taron Edgerton did all his own singing. Elton John, a living legend. One of the all time greatest musical artists.
You could never know what its like
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And theres a cold lonely light that shines from you
Youll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use
And did you think this fool could never win
Well look at me, Im coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while Im still standing you just fade away
Dont you know Im still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
Im still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
Im still standing yeah yeah yeah
Im still standing yeah yeah yeah
Once I never could hope to win
You starting down the road leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus youd be a clown by now
0:50 is the best part
Agreed!
Bellissimo. Il. Concerto. Nello. Stadio. Di. Milano... Grazie. Elton. John.

I am fifty two years in old thisbIm Still Standing song and video was my first Elton John
Can I just point out how smooth the camera shots were for the first part? each transition was smooth and they matched together perfectly
such talent and paulbonerism
“ITS JOHHNY!!” “THATS MY SON JOHHNY!!”
I honestly wish it was like this in the movie.
You know you've gone too far when Elton John is the most heterosexual thing in sight
