now, all u need to do to be considered a great performer is the ability to twerk on stage or good looks. Its like todays performer are artificially manufactured.
The way Elton overcame his throat issues and still sound awesome is amazing.People need to appreciate this legendary singer.Makes a mockery of todays singers!!!!!!
Elton John is a very compassionate human being and a Class Act. I saw him perform at Washington State university in Pullman WA a few years ago and he played for almost 3 hours straight with no break. His concerts are awesome.
This is in my cells, been listening to this, my mom says since i was 2 and i was born in 1969, loved having a hippy mother. She made sure i loved music, and this man is my biggest love of music, but of course the 80s came, and Boy George, and a lot of people got in my head too, buts Elton's always there.
I wonder what he would bring the the table if there wasnt an audience and he was solely playing for himself on stage; how differently he would express himself through his music. He is just one talented guy and a great entertainer.
My dad and mama told me about the wonderful nights that they spent together listening to that song...Oh God!They are so lucky...it's too bad that I couldn't live the good times!=(
this is the song my brother played constantly before he went to basic training and this was the song the played when i got my first kiss at a high school so every time this comes on it brings tears to my eyes
Fabulous lyric and fabulous timeless melody. The greatest song duo Elton and Taupin. Once in a lifetime. McCartney and Lennon, John and Taupin, Rogers and Hammerstein. Amazing to watch this breathtaking performer.
You know what? This is the best song ever and it will never change. This song will never die for me, not my best song, I can't tell you what my favorite song, that would be really hard question for me, saying a favorite song. I would say my best 5 song and I can't choose a favorite of them. But, Rocket Man is the best song ever written.
Idk anything about music but the part at the end where he starts echoing is the closest thing to magic I’ve ever seen! I often think about how I wish I was there on this exact night. What a performance.
The ether of brilliance and freedom that fills the upper regions of space flows freely from a liberated heart and razor-sharp mind. Elton creates music perfection as easily as most men breathe. Give this gift as freely as Elton does - give it to your children - give it to all the people of the earth!

Não existe na música pop compositor que se compare a Elton John. Eu o acompanho desde 1972. Estou com 68 anos e o escuto como se fosse jovem. Eh incomparável. Mantém um alto nível ate hoje.
This man is one of the most amazing artist bar none. I'm 62 and as long as I can remember he's been cranking out hits. I grew up with this man in my ear and will hopefully die with him in the other. I truely love Elton John, his band and music. Rock it brother..
@@NeilMelling-pw6ts i think the live performances back then didnt maintain the original vibe because his voice was more twangy and strained and had less depth plus it sounds better without the annoying falsetto and a richer baritone voice. but the original studio version is still special and i like that.
Terrific performance by a genuinely talented showman. Just saw his Farewell Tour. Today's performers lack the presence and talent of so many that we saw in the 60's, 70's and 80's.
Elton John is my favourite singer. Am Amile 13yrs the biggest fan of him and my dream is to meet elton John. All his songs speak to me specially nikita. He made me fall in love with music and old songs. Hope I could meet him as a request
Raymond Reddington 🙌🏽😍 one of the most talented people ever to hit the stage He sounds so amazing in this live performance He sounds so amazing in this live performance
This song, and in particular the "long long time" fade (here beautifully extended), evoked nostalgia, longing, and hope at a depth that caused both wonder and ache in 16 year-old me. 30+ years later its the same.
Rocket man, yes sir, you are, independent what people say about you, Thanks for be alive. Save Elton!!!! Big hug from Brasil! Your letters are imortal. Yes, they are.
Julho 2019, maravilhoso! Howard Wolowitz 😀 anyone in 2017 listening to this masterpiece? Te amo Elton John! Ouvi a infância inteira! one of the most talented people ever to hit the stage
I'm sorry, but his deeper and "husker" voice really works well for his songs. I'm glad it changed; it gives his songs so much more meaning and character.
I just can’t understand why nobody makes this kind of music anymore. it’s so sad.
BC there's no people like Elton John. just a bunch of wannabes...
I'm on it bro. Gimme some time... :D
now, all u need to do to be considered a great performer is the ability to twerk on stage or good looks. Its like todays performer are artificially manufactured.
What’s stopping ya?
Elton John may be amazing, but take a moment to appreciate the great bass guitar in this song
Don't forget the guy playing that slide on the guitar...
that bass goes right though ya
Kyle Hodgeman no comparison, grapes n watermelons 🍉
that bass is the heartbeat of the song
which he wrote - not gettin fresh. Just mentioning in case people forget the composer does that too. Unless Bernie writes those?
The way Elton overcame his throat issues and still sound awesome is amazing.People need to appreciate this legendary singer.Makes a mockery of todays singers!!!!!!
Throat issues ? From wieners ?
It's crazy how your voice will change over the years!! His voice is alot different from his voice 70's version
Henry Cobb he had a surgery on his throat, it’s absolutely astounding that with technique he is still able to sing so well all considered.
Me too!
Still legendary 👀
it's call growing , maturing , learning , not a bad live version nevertheless, one of the worst wigs , I would sue the responsible for that disaster
but still amazing!!!
My son is a Marine... he loves this song. I do too.. So many months away..
My dad loved Elton John music. He passed away 4 years. This song reminds me of him and miss him.
May your dad rest in peace. He had great music taste!
Pops had great taste.
Elton John is a very compassionate human being and a Class Act. I saw him perform at Washington State university in Pullman WA a few years ago and he played for almost 3 hours straight with no break. His concerts are awesome.
The self reflection of a brilliant person levels above human society....this guys a true journey man
Elton is great himself thats for sure but let’s give some respect to his band, what a great sound they have.
Davey johnstone
The outro is absolutely magical. I saw him live once and "Rocket Man" made me feel like I'd never felt before.
Elton John is rocketman
Amazing performance from sir Elton John... Thanks for this gift
Can't imagine what my life would have been without Elton John
Elton John truly is a masterful musician with such an understanding and respect for his instrument. He truly is a legend.
I think this is Elton's best concert
GOAT

Wesley Cantrell nice dude
Wesley Cantrell enjoy smile for him
that's way awesome
Love it! Same here! Was 12 at first listening. At nearly 58 love the song even more.
Fabulous lyric and fabulous timeless melody. The greatest song duo Elton and Taupin. Once in a lifetime. McCartney and Lennon, John and Taupin, Rogers and Hammerstein. Amazing to watch this breathtaking performer.
Definitely this is my song! I love you Elton.
hahahahahahaha
Kkkkk
Mind your words ur highness....he may enjoy that
🤣🤣🤣
To me this is the best version of this song by a mile. I don't know why but I simply love the arrangement done here.
ua-cam.com/video/r_QZe8Z66x8/v-deo.htmlsi=-p-1-52th7ZJpJvK say that again after listening to this version before the song even came out on album
YES he sounds so good 🎶🫡
You know what?
This is the best song ever and it will never change.
This song will never die for me, not my best song, I can't tell you what my favorite song, that would be really hard question for me, saying a favorite song. I would say my best 5 song and I can't choose a favorite of them.

Daniel, your song
He sounds so amazing in this live performance
Dude! This is Sir Elton John! He is amazing!!!
Elton John is known as rocketman
Man, I swear as his voice matured it got better. What an incredible vocalist, musician... performer... timeless
This song gives me chills EVERYTIME
..tears as well🚀
He’s so brilliant at what he does, the UKs treasure that is Elton John!.
I can’t believe I’m seeing him in concert next year
Zaonhe said 2022
Idk anything about music but the part at the end where he starts echoing is the closest thing to magic I’ve ever seen! I often think about how I wish I was there on this exact night. What a performance.
He's the greatest legend we have in our world
We have to appreciate it so long we can
Perfeitamente perfeito👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
To me that is beautiful!!!

Darn time goes by fast. I was there standing in the front. Been listening to him since for ever!
There is pure musical genius and then there is Elton John. They are one and the same!
I have never been a fan of this mans music however his band and his piano
playing are always top quality
I think this is the best version of Rocket Man i've ever heard...💖💖
The ether of brilliance and freedom that fills the upper regions of space, though unseen, is as plain as the sun in the summer sky, flowing freely from a liberated heart and a razor sharp mind. Beautifully expressive, Elton creates great music as effortlessly as most people breathe, providing a detour from the mediocre and the mundane.
He’s lowered the keys. Transposed it to suit his older voice. That’s actually brilliant. Adjust. Keep going.
I'm here because of Elton jhon. he's fucking awesome.

Best performance of Rocket Man
The 1972 royal festival hall is probably the best
I think 1979 Moscow is the best
Live aid the best
Defunct Transit Hub every performance is the best
U so right mac from baltimore

and the movie "rocket man" is coming :)
Cant wait, cheers!
Starring Kim Jong-Un.
jd kim too bad it sucked
I just saw the movie... Awesome!
It got taken out in India within a week
Guys I’m 13 and I’m glad to say I’m an Elton John fan! This was one of my favorites along with tiny dancer and Benny and the jetts
I was 16 when this song first came out in 1972 and had the 45 RPM record ! I love his songs !
Wow even this performance is twenty years old! Time flies.... Like a rocket.man.💃💃💃💃💃
Best live version of this song that I've ever seen--really maintains the original spirit. Oh, to go back and be there...
Checkout the 1971-72 live performance
@@NeilMelling-pw6ts i think the live performances back then didnt maintain the original vibe because his voice was more twangy and strained and had less depth plus it sounds better without the annoying falsetto and a richer baritone voice. but the original studio version is still special and i like that.
LOVE from PLANET EARTH,LOVING ELTON JOHN and his MUSIC FOREVER,LOVE ALWAYS
One of the best performers of all time!
Elton John songs are the Best. Don't let the Sun go Down on me 😢
this was 19 years ago... JEEEEZZZ!!!!!
Sou Muito Fã De Elton John, Amoooooo Essa Música e Todas As Músicas 🎶 ❤
Un clásico de sir Elton Jonh, gran compositor y cantante , lo vi en vivo, espectacular su presentación un GRANDE con mayúsculas,
Avevo 14 anni quando uscì superrrr
You hear that?!?! That's called actually singing, no auto tune!
shut up nerd
THE WEEKND
easymoneydavid does he uses autotune lol
That's true
@@zaxxorz It's true, real singing was like this, people like Elton, The Beatles, Ac-Dc, Guns N Roses, they had to use their own skill, not a computers
Terrific performance by a genuinely talented showman. Just saw his Farewell Tour. Today's performers lack the presence and talent of so many that we saw in the 60's, 70's and 80's.
Bass effect at 4:13. Amazing!
Elton John is a LEGEND here in Brazil. Many men born in the 1970s and 1980s were named Elton after him.
The last alive master of music.
Maravilhoso artista. Quem não tem uma lembrança associada a uma música de Elton John. Saudade de quando música era música e não baixo nível.
Only and changeless true is - ELTON IS THE BEST SINGER ON THE WORLD!!!!!
Elton è o melhor cantor do universo! Amo sua vòz e seu estilo! show man!
o estilo é meio estranho do tipo estranho feio mais a voz é magnifica
fala sério rapaz!!!!
Flávia Navarro muito bom xará
Elton John is my favourite singer. Am Amile 13yrs the biggest fan of him and my dream is to meet elton John. All his songs speak to me specially nikita. He made me fall in love with music and old songs. Hope I could meet him as a request
Who is going to like it even is who has heard more than 200 times and does not get tired. May 2019
l listened to that song since I was a little boy in 1971 and I love it just the same
Love the slide guitar in this.... definately the best live version of this song on UA-cam,.

Elton ...talentoso, virtuoso ...istrionico La leyenda viva del pop mundial...!!!

Can't imagine what my life would have been without Elton John
I’m thinking some of the people in the audience weren’t born when this song came out. Great great music!
Não me canso de assistir a este vídeo por dois motivos: um porque a letra e melodia são lindas e a outra é pelo show de guitarra!!
Sir Elton 🎩& this Band simply a spectacular performance!🎼🙏🎹🚀🖤
Hoy 7 de julio de 2019, he descubierto que este es mi track, pasando una dura prueba. Gracias Elton John!!!

Uma das melhores vozes do mundo!!! Esse cara canta de mais!

Absolute Masterpiece ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We don't see quality music like this in new singers.
Sou apaixonada pelas músicas do Elton John
clean and elegant on the ivories, love to hear this fully isolated
Cara tenho DVD desse show, é simplesmente maravilhoso a performance do Elton John.
A performance dele na música "Sacrifice" nesse show , é algo memorável !!.
Elton John é foda !!.
There's only one word to describe E.J amazing
I'm sorry, but his deeper and "husker" voice really works well for his songs. I'm glad it changed; it gives his songs so much more meaning and character.
Siempre me ha gustado su música, vi su película y me hizo quererlo más, te quiero Elton Jhon ❤❤ muchas bendiciones, mi alma abraza a tu alma
