When it comes to Elton John, you can literally throw a dart at any of his songs and you'll pick a winner. I mean, I could name a bunch of hits, but what's the point? Almost everything Elton touches is pure gold.
My first CD ever, as a child, was an Elton John CD, i got lot of luck for that.
It’s true. I always thank my dad for introducing me to his music. I hope the newer generations still carry on his music.
Amen to that
Elton John IS gold. Truly no words.
When I was a little kid in the early 70s, my dad had a 69. El Camino with an 8 track player in it. This was my introduction to not just Elton John, but Elvin Bishop, Carol King, Paul McCartney and the Wings, and many, many others of the greatest decade of music in our history.
"Saturday night's alright for fighting", "Sorry seems to be the hardest word", "Crocodile rock", "Someone saved my life tonight", "Candle in the wind" (original version), "Honky cat", "Goodbye yellow brick road". You can't miss with any of them.
And Benny and the Jets!
And Daniel!
IMO, any song on the Honky Chateau album! ❤️❤️
@@abarton1978 Daniel was such a great song!
@@abarton1978 they did Bennie in January ua-cam.com/video/wXe-XXjX--U/v-deo.html
True story alert: In early 2013, my 17 year old cat that I got when she was 2 was having health issues. In March of that year, I went to set my alarm before bed, and the part of this song "How wonderful life is while your in the world" played. I looked for my cat, and I found her deceased and still warm, under my bed. She is dearly missed, but I was blessed with my son 14 months later. God works in mysterious ways. Love you Jay and Amber. God Bless Everyone!
This song broke Elton in the US, and suddenly this record was on the radio, beautiful, masterful, and original. Good times!
I remember the magnetic attraction I felt every time this song came on the radio
Elton John and Bernie Taupin (his lyricist) are one of the worlds greatest songwriting teams. Great reaction.
Very true with a small proviso. Very few covers of their songs. It might be interesting to hear a musicologist analysing what makes their songs difficult or intimidating to cover by likes of Rod Stewart, Michael Bublé, and other great interpreters of songs
Not many covers of The Beatles songs either and those they did try failed dismally at it
Bernie Taupen deserves a lot of credit for writing this and many, many of Elton's songs. EJ is one of my all time favorite artists & he performs so many of these beautiful melodies perfectly. It's a beautiful song & I'm so glad you two like it. Music brings people together especially, sweet songs like this ❤️
He didn’t write the song. He wrote the lyrics.
Philadelphia Freedom!
It was Elton who 'clothed' Taupins words in music. Taupin could never have composed these songs. And he'd be the first to admit it.
@@desmondcoppin591 Bernie writes the lyrics & Elton writes the music. They're a dynamic duo!
@degsbabe This is true but no one can take away what these two do together.
"Sorry seems to be the hardest word" Elton and his Piano.
Sir Elton is so incredible and his voice with his piano just melts me. “ Sorry Seems to be The Hardest Word” is another masterpiece worth checking out. 🌺✌️
I went to an Elton John concert in 2018 and he sounds exactly the same. It's pretty crazy considering he's in his 70's.
@@brandondillman5841
I saw Sir Elton live during the 80’s and it was one of the great thrills of my life! 🌺
Yup.
Beautiful, beautiful song. His early stuff makes your jaw drop. But this man has been recording for almost SIXTY YEARS and his music still sounds awesome!!
"Tower of Babel" from Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy is my favorite Elton song of all time
@@MetalMcfly, yeah…….deep rabbit hole! Personal favorites are Mona Lisa’s and Mad Hatters, Border Song, and Levon, etc. So many to choose from over the decades.
@@pamcoyer9582 You’re the only people I’ve seen not just suggesting lemming picks. I was starting to wonder if I was the only one that bought the albums. The singles are nice but that’s not the meat
Still such a beautiful and meaningful song even after over 50 years!!! Bernie Taupin writes the wonderful lyrics, Elton adds the music. Such a great partnership for so many years. This song came out the same year me and my husband were married. So much has happened in our life together but this song is timeless.
He also wrote with Gary Osborn and Tim Rice starting in 1977 with Osborn and with Rice with the Lion King
Just ***( Epic )*** till the end of time .
"Somone saved my life tonight " is a wonderful, heartfelt ballard. You must take a listen to this gem. 🤎🤎🤎🖤🖤🖤
Elton John and I are contemporaries. "Your Song" was his first hit single, and I couldn't get enough of it back in the early 70s. Surely one of the most beautiful popular songs.
I never realized this was his first hit. Wow
My fav 😊
It's amazing that this timeless classic was penned, music and lyrics, in about an hour or so at most. Bernie Taupin wrote the lyrics over breakfast, handed them off to Elton at the piano, went upstairs to have a shave, and by the time he was done, Elton had written the music from top to bottom. They knew the moment they wrote it that it was something special. The public certainly agreed, since it was their first major hit single (Top 10 in both the US and the UK in 1970 and 1971, respectively).
While the lyrics were definitely about the girl Bernie was seeing at the time, "Your Song" has grown to mean far more than that since then. It has become Elton's dedication to his fans. In the more than 4000 concerts Elton has performed in his career, there has barely been a show where he hasn't performed "Your Song". In fact, there's a fantastic video compilation of Elton performing it throughout the decades. It's well worth a watch, if only for the incredible array of costumes he's worn for his concerts.
That's crazy. I've always heard a lot of musicians say that they almost always write music before the lyrics. It's amazing that Taupin can write lyrics without even knowing how it's going to sound! Unless maybe he does have some idea? I'm not sure what his exact process is.
@@johnjsal generally speaking, Bernie has no idea what Elton is going to write. It wasn't until later on that Bernie had any sort of musical experience whatsoever. In fact, when they first started writing together, Bernie didn't even structure his lyrics with any sort of verse/chorus/etc. Elton would have to figure that out what the chorus was going to be himself, if there even was going to be a chorus! That's how you got such atypical structures like you hear in early songs like "Sixty Years On", "The Greatest Discovery", and "Tiny Dancer".
The "lyrics first" approach is unusual, though I've used it quite a bit myself, probably because I was so strongly influenced by Elton. From what I understand, Bernie just comes up with an idea and starts writing. For Elton, he says when he reads Taupin's lyrics, "a little movie plays in [his] mind", and out come the chords. Usually, if he doesn't get the music in an hour, he comes back to it later or abandons the lyric altogether.
It's worth noting that while lyrics usually came first with Bernie, Elton has written music first with other writers, and on occasion with Bernie. Two John/Taupin songs where the music came first are "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" and "Don't Go Breaking My Heart". Gary Osborne, with whom Elton wrote mainly during the period of 1978-82, wrote lyrics to Elton's music, often fleshing out lyrical ideas that Elton had come up with.
@@robdaviesprogm Great info, thanks!
Thank you for the clear explanation about the songs and team Elton John/Bernie Taupin! It's very fascinating how some artists can write songs. It's something magical they have in them, that, to our great joy, comes out into the world. Indeed, in interviews and articles I saw that many writers first have the main musical lines on which they write lyrics. It can be a real work in progress, as you can see in the video Queen - The making of “One Vision”. Sometimes it's pure luck. The melody for "You Win Again" came to Barry Gibb in a dream. And when The Doors only had a few lines to the music of "Peace Frog", they filled out the rest with lyrics from three poems previously written by Jim Morrison.
"Empty Garden" was Elton's tribute to John Lennon, and is definitely worth a listen.
Yes!!!
Agreed. Totally underrated song
Was a beautiful song!
This is one of my fav Elton John songs. The other is "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me." He even did a duet of it with George Michael. Would love a reaction to it.
Yes! Watch the live version - it’s amazing!!
I had to sing a song in my English class as a child, i picked Sacrifice. But is really hard to pick one song from Elton.
Bernie Taupin wrote some of the greatest lyrics ever. Married to Reg's music its exquisite
For most of his early career, Elton contributed the music and the lyrics were written by Bernie Taupin. They were an incredible songwriting team, as Bernie's words were like poetry, but Elton always found a way to elevate them into something just heavenly.
I'm 63 years old and I was 12 when Elton broke through with this song. Great reaction, and, as you say Amber, this song is so very humble. Elton wrote the music to his songs and the lyrics were written by the wonderful Bernie Taupin who avoided the limelight. Beautiful, beautiful lyrics to this song which is now 52 years old. How many songs have stood the test of time over such a long period. Genius!!! Thanks again for a very beautiful and heartfelt reaction. Very best wishes from the UK. Take care.
My favorite song by Elton; so simple and beautiful. I still remember when and where I was when I first heard it.
Love Elton John, I’m going to his concert next Saturday!!! So excited!
I had the pleasure of seeing him in concert several years ago, and was pleasantly surprised when I found out my seats, to the side of the stage, gave me the perfect alignment to watch his hands play the entire concert. It was amazing!!
This one brought me to tears, it was me and my wife's wedding song a long, long time ago. Macy's in Manhattan used to have a little recording booth where you could record your own "demo" and I made one, singing "Your Song" to her. We unfortunately parted ways a few years ago but the song still brings me back to that time and the simple message of how much I loved her.
Your reply has brought me to tears. Thank you for sharing.
one of the most authentic love songs ever written.
Bernie and his beautiful lyrics. ❤❤❤
Remember that it is rare for Elton to have ever written lyrics, so he's making you feel someone else's words. And o stage, Elton was one of the ultimate showmen. Liok up his costumes.
Bernie Taupin, lyricist.
A beautiful song. From the '70s. For more love songs react to:
The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face by
Roberta Flack
With You I'm Born Again - Billy Preston
and Syreeta Wright
Here and Now - Luther Vandross
Amber hit it right on the head. This song was just a beautiful gift given to the world. I’ve heard this song for decades but it still gets me emotional every time I hear it. Great reaction. Thank you.
This song is a warm hug. I can't hear it without crying.
This was Elton John's first his first hit, released in 1970. Loved it and still do! Thank you!
This was my parents wedding song….and my husband and I played it at our wedding too. A very special song
That's so cool that it was in both generations!
This is the young Elton who burst on the scene with brilliant (mostly simple) songs. He wrote many great ones over the years, but for me...that "Elton John" album was the best, start to finish. Damn, 52 years ago! OMG I am old.
Right there with ya Eric! 59 here and was privileged to grow up with his music and see him in concert, with Billy Joel no less! We might be old but didn't we grow up with the greatest, kick ass music?!
It was Bernie Taupin who wrote the songs.
ua-cam.com/video/J39XajnpFV8/v-deo.html sub if you mess with it! 🤌🏽
I'm late to the game in learning about reaction videos, but I enjoy seeing younger people experiencing songs like this one for the first time. I've known this song for 50 years, but it still gets me when I take the time to reflect on the lyrics and how they apply to my life. Watching both of you hearing it for the first time reminds me of how amazing these songs are, how they withstand the test of time, and how they can still affect young people today. Please keep doing what you're doing.
His best songs, “Daniel” “Don’t Let The Song Go Down On Me” “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” “Rocket Man” “Honkey Cat” and “Saturday Night’s All Right For Fighting” The Bitch Is Back”. His first 5 years, 69-74 are nothing less than phenomenal. His music and a Bernie Taupin’s lyrics are unparalleled. His work in the 2nd half of the 70’s was unremarkable with some decent but not classic songs. He has sporadic hits in the 80’s & 90’s some of the excellent: “Empty Garden”, “I’m Still Standing”, “Club At The End of the Street” “I Guess That’s Why They Call It The Blues”.
Sir Elton never disappoints. Yellow Brick Road one of my favourite albums.🌻
One of the greatest albums of all time!
I totally agree 100%. (Except for "Bennie And The Jets". Sorry, but I hate that song.
There's no bad Elton John song, but I'll keep pushing "I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues" for a reaction. =)
It is a must.
If you walk up to Elton and say "Leather Jackets" he will reach into his pocket and give you your $8 back.
I only have to say that if he has a single regret to his recording career it’s that bubblegum pop he did with KiKi Dee, “Don’t go Breaking My Heart”
Not that the song is that terrible, (it is catchy as hell), but I personally believe it’s well beneath Sir Elton’s talents
Great song!
@@Willie_McBride Nah, it's the variety of tunes and styles that make a great artist standout over time and last through the ages. "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" fit well in the time and moment it was created. He has a ton of great duets and larger collaboration groups. =)
"Empty Garden" by Elton was about losing one of his best friends...John Lennon.🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
I sometimes have a hard time listening to 'Empty Garden'.
My favorite Elton John song
Along with being my favorite Elton John song, this is actually my favorite all-time song. Absolutely beautiful. And, it is amazing that one Bernie handed him the words, it only took him like 20 minutes to write the music to it.
The reason this one is "broken down" as Jay has described it is because you're listening to a live performance. The studio version, which was released as the single, has a full string section behind him, which I suspect was replaced in this live performance by a synth. "Your Song" was his debut single when we first learned of him in 1970. A huge hit, and for my money, perhaps his best song. He had so many other great ones through the years, but I'm not sure there was ever one any better. If you ever want to just throw an album on and let it track, listen to his "Tumbleweed Connection" album. Just lay back and enjoy.
ua-cam.com/video/eEnBRoCZdUg/v-deo.html
There's a live version done with a symphony that's gorgeous.
A great album indeed
Technically his debut single was a song called 'I've been loving you' in 1968 it just wasn't a hit. He had a few singles before this. Your Song was just his first hit song that finally got the worlds attention.
My favorite song of Elton John. Every time I hear it I’m taken back to my youth. Sitting in the back seat of my parents car listening to “Your Song” on the radio. It brings a smile to my face every time.
“Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” is a must.
Truly one of the greatest.... Such a huge talent.
I've been an Elton John fan since I was literally about 10 years old. My favorite part of this song is the heartfelt conversational tone of the lyrics, where he says, "anyway, the thing is...." Just brilliant.
This was his first breakout hit! His melody with Bernie Taupins lyrics became the formula for very many great songs!
So fun to see people of your generation discovering the music of my teen years. 😊
And THAT is why Elton is the King AND the Queen of all things:)
Hard to choose, but after so many years, I do believe this remains my all time favorite by Elton John. So simple, elegant, so heartfelt.
HUGE shout out to Bernie Taupin for writing some of most sincere, beautiful lyrics ever and to Elton for composing one of the most stunning melodies ever. This is a perfect song. I highly recommend you listen to Funeral For A Friend / Love Lies Bleeding - EPIC and so cool. Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting is great for more of a rock vibe, and Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me is fantastic and check out the live performance with George Michael too it's amazing!
A beautiful song. His first big hit and one of my favorites.
Tumbleweed Connection is my favorite album. Followed by Madman Across the Water, that period of his and Bernie’s career was spectacular!
Makes me cry when I hear it as I lost two friends. One passed at 14ys old in 1977. The other was my childhood friend that played this song on the piano when we were kids. She passed in 2013. Love this song as it reminds me of both of them so much! That's the wonderful thing about music..❤️
I remember this song well. Was played a lot in the bars up here in Canada. Elton's first hit song from the winter of '70 - '71.
Another awesome love ballad is 'Sacrifice' from Dec. '89. This song has 436 million plus views on one video.
An amazing masterpiece from Elton and Bernie, Elton's beautiful piano fits Bernie's lyrics perfectly. This is perhaps one of the best love songs ever!
My favorite Elton John song! Thank y’all so much!
I'm so thrilled you love this song...Elton's first hit 1970. This "unplugged" version is the best IMO. Just a piano and Elton's heartfelt emotion in his voice speaks right to my soul.
Early live Elton is some of the best. I love these live BBC shows from 1970 and 1971. You could literally pick any song from any one of them and you can't go wrong. Border Song, Madman Across the Water, Levon, Burn Down the Mission. The well is deep.
Excellent list! I was going to mention all of these, along with Daniel, for one, as suggestions for reaction videos.
I've always felt that this song was meant for every single person. That we could ALL say it was OUR song.
I have only watched one reaction to an Elton song called TICKING. The reactors dubbed it a masterpiece and I completely agree.
It is quite long so I understand why people don't choose it but...you REALLY will be BLOWN AWAY by it!
(Off of his 1974 album CARIBOU).
Elton John had so many great songs. It's going to take a long time to get to them all. My favorite is That's why They Call it the Blues. I love to see you react to it.
This was Elton’s first hit and the start of many more to come, what a talented writer and singer! I also think you two are great by expanding your music knowledge
He never wrote a song bernie did
@@Andy-bl2oq Bernie wrote the lyrics then handed them to Elton to compose the music to the words. What legends they are to create countless masterpieces together.
Now your talking iconic! There's no one like him!
"Sacrifice" is one of the most beautiful songs by Elton John. Have alisten. Cheers.
Elton is absolutely one of my musical heroes.
I've had the pleasure of seeing him live many times. Guys, if you ever get the chance to see him in concert......do it!
Great song by an absolute legend 💕
This was such a favorite song of my mom, we played it at her memorial service.
Hey Jay and Amber!!! I know this was already mentioned, Bernie Taupin was Elton John's Lyricist for all those great songs!! And things that he (Bernie) experienced that he wrote about. Elton does such a great job conveying what Bernie wrote that you would think he went through it! Elton just writes the music 🎵🎶. But what great music it is!!!
His most beautiful song in my opinion. And I love Elton.
His songs are timeless...his music just transcends generations and eras. He truly is Sir Elton, the greatest of all time. His partnership with Bernie Taupin(writer of the lyrics) has no equal!
Y'all need to do Tiny Dancer, imo his greatest song!!
They've already reacted to Tiny Dancer.
@@AzaleaLuna missed it
As you are into Elton John and his great, heart-felt lyrics, you should react to some Neil Diamond. Amazing singer songwriter- some to get you stated "I am I said" "Play me" "Yesterday's Songs" "September morn" "Love on the Rocks (album version, not cut down video-promo version) "Longfellow Serenade" "Forever in Blue Jeans"
Don't forget that Bernie Taupin was (is?) Elton's main lyricist.
Elton John didn’t write lyrics…. Bernie Taupin did, Elton worked out the tunes.
When I was a teenager this was my favorite song. When I got older I had a car and used to go to this bar called Bronzo's where all the Italians hung out. One Saturday night I had Elton John on the 8 track playing Saturday Night's All Right for Fighting. As I pulled into the parking lot all these guys were fighting and one guy is on my hood and another was thrown over something. This song was playing and it was ridiculous!
When I was young in the 80s, I really liked his song "Sad Songs Say So Much."
Yay! You guys are finally reacting to Elton and Bernie's break out hit! 💗 Such a beautiful song and a beautiful reaction.. much love! 😊
You HAVE to hear his duet with George Michael on "Don't let the sun go down on me". It's a live performance and it is epic.
One of the greatest love songs ever written.
Young Elton singing songs that touched hearts 💕.
Seeing him live was an out of body experience…… i was ‘blessed’ & grateful to have been in his presence. Thank u ✌🏻🎼💙❤️
Yes me too Him and Billy Joel at the Meadowlands back in the 80's.. it was great!
This is one of my favorite songs of Elton and Bernie’s. But I have to admit that I like the studio version a little better. You hear the piano stronger in it. If you get a chance, listen to that version. Thank you!
Amber totally get it...Thank you !
The best of John Elton.
Man, this is just a timeless song. So beautiful 😍 There are so many to suggest it's hard to name just a few!
Tiny Dancer
Goodbye yellow brick road
Benny and the Jets
I guess that's why they call it the blues
Candle in the wind
Hey guys,
Amber … You have no idea what this song means to me!! ☺️
It’s in my top 3 OF ALL TIMES!!
I almost stopped breathing when Jay paused it right before the most crucial lyric 😩
It’s like you read my mind when you told him to rewind it! 😁
Check out the recorded version. It’s pure perfection!
❤️🙏🏽
I felt the same way! I think my first response was, Oh Nooooo! That was followed by aargh! aargh! aargh! until Amber - thank you *so* much, Amber! - got Jay to rewind a bit to catch the full effect. Whew!
I so agree!!!!!!
One word: Levon. One of Sir Elton's best.
This is my number one Elton song of all time, period!
Hey Amber! I love how you described the song. A humble offering telling someone how much they are loved.
Emotions running for me. I was 11 and my parents decided to divorce. Such a long time ago, but when I hear this song it all comes back. Music is so powerful.
this is his best. and you hear and feel every word and because it is written to "you", written and performed that way, and melody reaches into your heart...
This is the first song from Elton that I heard. I think it's one of the prettiest love songs ever written. The man is Brilliant!!
"Your Song" was one of Sir Elton's biggest hits back in the 70s and still holds so much emotion today. Beautiful lyrics and heartfelt music. One of my favorites of his is "Blue Eyes" and "I Guess Thats Why They Call it the Blues" and, of course, "Daniel"
First song I ever heard from Elton John. Always brings back memories. Beautiful song
First song for me, too. On the Andy William's Show. Had never heard of Elton before.
My favourite Elton John song!
Bernie Taupins lyrics, Elton's arrangements & piano, one of the most beautiful combination.
If you are looking for emotional songs from Sir Elton, try "Sacrifice", "The One" and especially "The Last Song". That one is about the reaction of a young man dying of Aids to his father visiting him.
É minha música predileta desse monstro da música, igual a Elton John não existirá jamais, choro toda vez que ouço essa melodia perfeita.
One of his first and finest tunes ….. loved him for decades and all his tracks are amazing ….
My absolute favorite Elton song
You should listen to the duet Elton sings with George Michael. Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me. It's live and it's EPIC!!
THIS!!
If you want to see Elton's playing at its finest (IMO), check out "Madman Across The Water" live 1971. So much sound from just 3 guys. Piano, bass & drums. Awesome performance.
Absolutely! That performance is incredible! 👏
One of the best albums ever. I saw him at the Greek Theater in L..A. just before "Madman" came out. He did the whole album as an encore. Unbelievable!
My favorite album .
Yeah,it's super cool!
Love Elton John ❤️
I had read that this was Princess Diana's favorite song by Elton John. 💌
How much more wonderful life has been for the rest of us for more than 50 years thanks to the musical genius of Elton John, and it started with this song, 'Your Song,' back in '71.
He's had countless great songs but I'd suggest, Amber, you would love hearing either his dedication to Marilyn Monroe, 'Candle in the Wind,' or his tribute to Princess Di, ' Goodbye England's Rose.' Same tune, different lyrics.
You can't go wrong hearing songs by Elton John, Neil Diamond, Roy Orbison, Cat Stevens.. thanks so much for your excellent and heartfelt reactions!.
Other great Elton songs you guys need to react to are "Levon", "Someone Saved My Life Tonight", and "Mona Lisa And Mad Hatters"
ESPECIALLY Levon..
I will second(or third?) Levon... It's my absolute favorite Elton song.
One of my favorite songs. This song sums up how I feel about my wife . I've sent this to her on her email several times. Thank you for reviewing it.
Oh he is just so brilliant and simply wonderful!! Keep listening to him!
