    I saved the life of a friend last night. I could not help but to search for this song this morning. Thank you!

    Think what you want about Elton. He has never sang a bad note in his life. Pure beauty. This voice - no matter how old it gets - brings tears to my eyes. Pure perfection.
    Inexplainable grace. This voice never grows old.

    Bernie was at the top of his game on this one. As was Elton.. he wrote the music on a cruise ship heading to America. Two absolute geniuses.

    love, love, love this..Sir Elton, your music will will still be heard 300 years from now and beyond. You are a study in music history. I am honored to have grown up with your music and fortunate to have a mother who said to me "watch this guy" upon hearing 'Your Song' for the first time, way back when.....

    This song forever deserves to be played WITHOUT the band. It has so much soul, just by itself.

    I've been binging on this everyday for weeks now. I'm dying to perform it at karaoke or anywhere in front of some women. I was drunk belting it out in the subway on the Upper East Side a few weeks ago.

    Normally an artist is only as good as his backing band allow but this guy just kills it whether he's on his own,with his band or even with a 90 piece orchestra....

    Bernie would leave the lyrics on the piano, for Elton to create the music. Most amazing songwriting team to ever grace the planet. When something works this well...it becomes the beautiful noise that creates a lifetime of memories..... okay...I've been listening for a long time. And have many memories and never get tired of one single track.

    One of my favorite songs of all time, and a wonderful performance, but I can't stand video directors who feel that they need to change camera shot every 1-1/2 seconds. I would loved to have seen some longer shots of Nigel and Davey . . . such great talents in their own right. Thanks for posting this!

  • @karenhughes4159
    @karenhughes4159 8 років тому +1

    I think this song was written by his cross roads of his well known addiction and how he was in the battle to overcome them and his knowledge his music was still there great song been a fan since I. was 11 years old 42 years of. enjoying his great. talent just saw him in Chattanooga Mar 11 great show

    • @bermudaguy1
      @bermudaguy1 7 років тому

      I always imagined this was a cross roads to the realization that he was gay....and somebody saved him from getting married. It is curious that so many of his songs can be whatever you want them to be about though. Good ole Bernie!

    Circa 1973 I noticed/heard this man. 1971, I thought he might be about. 1974 music as we know it took flight and exploded. Tell you now. Finest form of music ON THIS PLANET is rock/classical. Call my white straight male ass out over Freddie/Elton. I'll defend them both.
