This is my grandpa. I never really knew him. I live on Maui now and this has always been my fave song of his... my jaw JUST hit the floor after it came on the radio and for some reason I felt compelled to listen to it again and found this awesome video! Thank you to whoever made this!! I love how the girl looks like me with the Hawaiian flower in her hair 😍🌺🦋
Leon is your grandpa...that's awesome
@@scottburas9649 yeah, in a way. It’s certainly come with its blessings and challenges!
You must feel very privileged 👍
I consider myself to be a 'Lifer' and if you know your Granpa's legacy then you know what that means. How long have you been a Tarot Card Reader? How'd you get into that if you don't mike asking. I'd like to know more about it.
Halen, your Grandfather was to me one of the most genuine, kind-hearted artists I've ever set eyes on. Fell in love with his music & persona back in '67 and first saw him in late 68. He had a very keen ability to see all that was going on all around him. He wasn't (from what I've observed over the years) a very talkative person. But he took in it seems alot. He became alittle more talkative in his latter years. I couldn't tell you why that was though. I saw him one time in St. Louis a very long time ago and long story short was being smashed by a very large amount of people who had rushed the stage and Leon saw what was going on and asked the people to move back and not crowd the stage. Well, that didn't do much to help the situation, so he looked at me and about 10-15 other people and motioned to us to go to the side of the stage which had steps up to the stage. I just stood there as if I had no idea what he was saying and he said out loud to me if I didn't want to feel like a sardine to come up and sit down on the stage while he finished his set. And it wasn't just girls it was a mixture of the both of boys n girls. So, I thought well hell why not, never get an opportunity like that again. I às went up and sat down I looked at him and said thank you Mr. Russell and he smiled and said I hope you enjoy the show. And of course I did, it was the nicest thing that had ever happened to me at a concert I went to. He sure had a nice smile and way about himself
Leon Russell was definitely ahead of his time. I think he turned off a lot of people because of his eccentricities and appearance. However, the songs that he wrote / performed are enduring, and many, many performers have covered his songs. Thx so much, Mr. Russell. We will miss you! ❤
I play this song every single day
What eccentricencites? My era. My part of the country. 😅
Leon was just IN time.
Hes awesome & EltonJphn loved him dearly
@@barbaramcspadden8655eccentricity are a GOOD thing.
Leon's a fascinating guy.
Flanked by Life and the Funeral Pyre...what a brilliant lyric!
I love that plus-- "Like a rubberneck giraffe, you look into my past but maybe your just too blind to see."
Such a good lyric!!
Expressive is impressive & that Giraffe 🦒 is gonna get pulled over rubbernecking out that back window
RIP Leon, you are dearly missed. 💕
Such a loss. 😢
. . Indeed . . .
Tight Rope by Leon Russell was a cool song and a hit for him back in the early 70's I was only 10 but would listen to it on the radio and it got a lot of airtime. If you got to grow up in the 50's through the 90's with all the golden classic movies & music, YOU were blessed.
Nice job🎉
Yes..we certainly were blessed back then.😊
I saw Leon Russell in Albuquerque, NM. My first date in college. I drove my friend's Ford Falcon painted flat black with the hubs painted flaming orange. No muffler. It was a great concert.
So funny. THAT car... my THAT car was a gold 1966 Vista Cruiser station wagon with crimson interior and about 150k miles on it. My dad did all the maintenance on it and had wired it for a trailer so it had some "quirks" like the headlights dimming when you used the turn signals. It was my date car as well. I took her to see a Pink Panther movie and on the way back, the headlights went out. I finally figured out that the fuse for the headlights had just fallen out and it was fine after I popped it back into place.
This song is just so damn good. All of it. I am happy it wasn't overplayed in its day. Always loved Leon.
Leon was truly the king of tickling the ivories of a ragtime piano. His music went completely against the grain of what was called contemporary music stylings but DAMN the man was a genius. Tightrope was a song that will live forever.
Lyrically, the man was unmatched.
Rest in peace Leon, you live on through your legion of fans that still remember you.
truly a great talent Mad dogs and English men. tightrope etc. Great musican
Love that ragtime sound 🎹💜👌
All his music will live forever. My man Leon!
And to think he had to work at least twice as hard to play and even walk due to a traumatic birth injury paralyzed his right side. He took 10 years of piano lessons from age 4-14, then his band was hired on the spot by Jerry Lee Lewis. He also said it took him a long time to learn how to hold guitar pick in his right semi-paralyzed but of course Leon showed great resilience. The fact that Elton heard his session work on an early album and was his inspiration style that he has of course made his own but if you hear LR piano you will understand he was a gifted player despite his right hand having limitations. You wouldn’t have known it 🤷🏼♀️
We listened to a lot of Leon Russel in college when this was first released in 1971-72.
At least you are older than me
Thanks to Brendan Huza for the animation! Lovingly rendered. Mr. Leon is what my older Brother Dan used to wake me up to in the early 70's on his big arse stereo. It was really nice being so young, and listening to such beautiful music. Bless
Leon Russell had huge talent that was under appreciated!
Leon Russell was a giant in the world of music. You may not know his name, but once you Google him , then you'll understand his impact on the biggest names in music. RIP brother.🙏
Leon’s songs always fit life! Especially this song! He was one of the Greats in music and this song fits most marriages! He was a Genius!
I found this song almost a decade ago, and I still push it on as many people as I can
Keep pushing, I do !!🤷
#keepleonalive bro
)just heard this - very unique and quirky love it 🥰
I remember when this song first came out, I have always loved Leon Russell's music, keep telling people!
Found this song in 1972 at the ripe old age of 12; permanently embedded itself in my soul.
Just discovered Leon through Elton fantastic RIP Leon. Talented guy writing songs for other singers😍
Daddy Leon says it all. All his writings and performances were for us.
A few years back he did shows at small towns in Florida. A sound to be

I saw him at liberty lanes in Pensacola FL!
Thank you for sharing this, it's so good to hear Leon again. What a talent! The world's just that bit more beige for his passing 💗
I loved his unique voice , one of a kind ! ✌️
Love it - heard it on public radio in nyc area tonight. They don't write great songs like THIS anymore. I graduated HS in '72 - not a good time in America. Glad something good was done in 1972 - this is great.
DAD I MISS YOU SO MUCH THAT I AM CRYING NOW THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC YOU LEFT ME
Saw him live in concert in Charlotte in the 70's. He could put on a show.
what an incredible song......a song which will never age
I'm having a wonderful Leon Russell night tonight , and so are my neighbours.....awesome evening xxx
👍
I always thought that I'd see you again Leon. Rest in deep, abiding peace. Thank you for the memories your music made for me; for being such a deep and lovely part of the of the soundtrack of my life.🙏🙏💜💚💙💛🧡
One of the best albums in the history of rock.
Lucky to have seen Leon.a.few.times.in Houston,great live performances.
Great One Leon.....we sure do miss you. Thanks for the memories.
O
@@eduardoarrietamorales7884 Not sure what "O" means
Seen him in Charlotte NC in the early 70's
One of the greatest of all time. Embedded into my life by my mother back in the 60s. He was her favorite. Can't wait to see the other videos.
My momma gave me good taste in music too. She's a Leon and Jeff Lynn fan. Thanks mommas
great video! shows the brilliance of Leon's lyrics!
Lady Bue is my favorite song by him. Rest in peace Leon 💖✌🏻
I will miss him until the end of my days......
I saw him play in Ohio before he Died. He was amazing but it was sad to see. It was a dive ass Bar
Always liked him he was different when there was nothing but Genuis Bands by the hundreds!
Stil unic pian și voce
Dormi în pace LEON.
I remember hearing this growing up. Great track. Rest in peace, Leon. Shawn R., Mo-Mutt Music/Sacred & Secular
R.I.P. LEON! Awesome song and video! First song I heard of yours in 1972 when I was 6. Fortunately, got to see you with Elton
For some reason I don't comprehend, this song popped into my brain a couple days ago. I remembered it fuzzily from my teenage years in the 1970's.
I found myself singing it & humming it, trying to recall the lyrics. And who sang it? Leon....
...Russel!
So I have looked it up.
Such a terrific video of the lyrics!
Thank you so much for it. And to Leon for his song.
I remember the album on my turn table, this brings me back in time!! Thank you Leon my 3 parrots love your songs especially a song 4 you!!! R.I.P
This mans music has Always been in my life.
Rest In Peace..U R LOVED
I love Leon Russell's music, especially "Song For You." I can think of at least two men I could sing it to :).

Neon Leon from Oklahoma, I’m a Aussie but loved your music since the wrecking crew joe cocker shelter people etc etc we lost a good soul god rest your soul mate gave some much joy to so many people. Some have , or don’t even know you’re name however in the pantheon of musicians you will be remembered,as a good southern boy who made music that translate to the whole universe, If only listen to the Lyrics and the song RIP Leon
The first time I heard this song I was 14…. I was in a home improvement store and it was playing on the loud speakers…. I thought who is that? . It was unforgettable. I’ve always loved the punchy little rhythms and the carney persona that he adopted. His vocal and the lyric are seamless! Brilliant!
Who's still listening to this in 2021?
My first time seeing this video. Absolutely perfect images for this amazing song.
Absolutely awesome video.. I used to have the wedding album .. bought it as soon as it was released. Peace
EveryTime. Brings me 2 my knees. What a legacy. What a Gift.
Leon was a humble part of the "Wrecking Crew". Magical folks all.
I had the privilege of going to Leon shows in San Diego and Sacramento over the years. His voice aged so well.
Where does such magic come from. From the ether..where the Gods live......RAM ON!. MOST DON'T SEEK IT. LET ALONE THE MANY WHO DON'T FIND IT.
He was just so brilliant.He will live forever.
I'm at work. It's Friday morning.......... Listening to Leon by chance. Now I don't know what to do except listen to more of his tunes, his art, his greatness. Think I'll go home and put his albums on the turn table and drift away.
this legend should have bare min one million subs. what an innovator. I still own some of his records
I wear a top hat almost everywhere. A gentleman saw me and asked if I knew about Leon Russell. I didn't but I am glad that I do. Excellent music 👍
A few Mad Dogs and Englishmen brought me here. Leon (RIP)
What a classic from his greatest album Carney.
Love this!!
Always walking on a tight wire
Brilliant guy awesome composer sadly missed ☺️
I like it and it's always wonderful to hear vintage LEON...But, Leon never had red hair.
I got to meet Mr. Russel in my first job when I was 14. I usually saw him about once a month. We never really talked until the last time I saw him. He was always very nice to me and I made sure to not bother him or ask him for anything. He was one of my favorite recording artists when I met him and it was hard not to be a fanboy. My family was in the film industry though so I was taught not to be annoying to people who were well known.
I feel very fortunate to have been able to spend some time with him though. The last time I saw him he said it would be the last time and asked me if there was anything he could do for me. So I asked him some things about songwriting and he was very nice about giving me very well thought out answers. I think getting to spend a little time with him made me write a lot more songs than I would have without his influence.

The video is done very well! I loved Leon! He definitely had a very unique sound!
They don't create musicians like Mr Russell anymore. The kids these days don't have a clue what good music is, and Leon was one of the finest to musicians to ever walk the earth ..
I love this song , Started down this road with a copy of one more for the road many years ago.
Here in Lawton giving a listen
Beautiful!
I remember setting back stage in Tenn. My father playing Guitar ( Joey Cooper) im 12 yrs young. . I wish i were older really to get the whole INVIBE OF SHELTER AT ITS BEST.
Hes singing about the either/or mind game thats played. One sides ice and one is fire. One sides hate and one sides hope. All this or all that heres your 2 choices.
An unforgettable classic......just like Leon himself......his time to reboot was here......its sad he was'nt!
Love Leon r.what a great👍 song
味があって、大好きなんだよね。なんと言うかな 心からの鼻歌ぽくって。💕
Halen Nelah. I am a life long fan of Leon's. Always be proud...hold your head high and know he gave his ALL to his music! He will live on forever in his music.
Leon Russell is a bar room entertainer. And I do not mean that in a bad way. Everybody loves him.
One of the best
Leon was always so good you never felt like he was just performing he was always putting on a show with part of his soul in it..........♾️🪖
I saw Leon Russell in concert only 3x, and I won the tickets!
🎵🎼🎶😎
What a peaceful genius. 🎩🎼

Everyone here, such fun we would all have reminiscing together about "the day"! (The "day" of "back in the day fame" 🥰)! One thing for absolute certain; yes there were protests, some riots, a war no one wanted, so many deaths, so much (what did they call it, the word eludes me) OH so much "civil unrest". BUT, we always come together on the bottom line ! which is "we wouldn't have missed those days for love or money!!! Once in a lifetime AND WE WERE THERE. 👍How blessed we never knew at the time! Yet, ALL OF US REMEMBER THOSE DAYS WITH LOVE AND INTENSELY HAPPY MEMORIES. God bless each and every one of us here. Definitely older, hopefully wiser, never give up, fight the good fight, confront lies with truth, hate with love, anger with peace, and pain with compassion; you know~ as we always did. God bless you each and your families. Thank you beyond thanks for this hour down memory lane. Listened a few times and replied to some comments.
one one of my favorite song since a boy ....go Leon !!!!
THEE Master of time and space !!!
to be continued!!! love Leon forever
this is how i feel in 2020, time of COVID.
Miss songs like this
Grew up listening to him. Tulsa boy he is. Perfected the Tulsa sound. Has a recording studio here.
Hopefully, You will see this post to You.. Your Grampa, was a genuine genius at playing.his piano, singing,and songwriting and was a gentleman, very straight-up guy. We all loved him ❤💙♥💕💜and still listen to him.(Leon)😇👍👍✌

May December brought me here
Leon Russell; what an icon!
a song for youは特にこのかたの声がなんともいい感じで切ない 他にも有名な素敵な曲作ってますよ
LEON RUSSELL FOREVER
Thankyou for this beautiful cartoon. I don't think we'll find another person, even close to this man.With all the hate today, I hope someone can break through and be like Leon. Parents should teach their kids about our great musical past, and all the talented people we've lost, and ones still here. My son is 31, he always love music from the past. He's not a big fan of Leon's music, but he can appreciate his talent. So glad he's not a fan of rap, he hate what they call music today. Thanks again.
I found it this evening
He was one n a Million great talent. He wrote over 400 songs good google . RIP
This song really takes me back... The video, not so much.
We loved Leon Russell
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEON RUSSELL!
Thanks Jan and family, this is awesome. Great animation Brendan!
