Supestardom does not always coincide with talent but to say that Elton John is talented is a vast, vast understatement. One of the greatest songwriters and performances of all time, and as I discovered in Romantic Music history, the Franz Schubert of our day... or maybe Franz Schubert was the Elton John of his day.
Just Elton and his piano .. no need for accompaniment. A true and epic musician.
It sounds great. Another great one with just Elton on the piano is the Old Grey Whistle Test 1971 version: ua-cam.com/video/UroApoVbKn0/v-deo.html

Elton kinda looks like Schubert if you think about it
His voice sounds perfect here.
Legend. The most magnificent, the most extravagant, the most amazing, most wonderful, the one and ONLY: ELTON JOHN ! ! !
I'm in awe! Gotta see this legend live.......its at the top of my bucket list
I can't wait to dance to this at my wedding.
+Stephanie Cottrell has it happened yet?
+davocreative no they got divorced
so it happened
more like play the piano and sing it- me
Im not your daddy Actually I’ve been happily married since August 6, 2016.
This was his vocal prime for me 🎤👌 'Tiny Dancer' is stunning, as always. 'The Big Picture' is a great album! Very underrated 💿
I agree with this era (essentially 1990-2000) being his prime era in terms of vocals. Just so strong and crystal clear.
That is your opinion.
You know that it’s a matter of taste right…….
I don't know why or how, but 1997 Elton was something else, able to hit notes he hadn't hit since his surgery.
@@realjoshhayes same here. I have no idea how he can hit those presurgery notes.
I remember this Instant Goosebumps ! My Idol making me proud !
Elton was in good form at this time. Watch him the previous year on Rosie’s show performing a rousing version of “Levon.”
May not have been the greatest talk show but he put on one hell of a performance anytime he was on it
Goosebumps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hollie Jo this is awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Unbelievable! Thanks for this!!!
Simplesmente Elton john 👏
Little fingered Elton can sure tickle those ivories. He's s cute ,& fantastic.
Damn this was right before farley died rip
11 days before john denver died
Hollie Jo Wheeler hun, This is awesome !
Mmmmaaaan....is he Strong Here !
Tiny Dancer (Live On the Rosie O’ Donnell Show/1997)
Can barely see him with all that camouflage.
Hahaha! I see what you did there. 😉
He says it twice I'm I missing it ! Pretty Eyes? isn't it Pretty Eyed ?
Correct it is pretty eyed but I guess he wrote it so he can change the lyrics if he wants to with Bernies permission.
It works no matter what he says. Lol
He also says "Oh, how it really feels" when it is normally "Oh, how it feels so real"

Jesus Christ died for you so live for him and live live
Yikes! I can barely see him with all that camouflage on.
Uu
