    Even though I'm an American, Diana's life and death touched me deeply. She was my ideal of what a princess is supposed to be. Beautiful inside and out, and with a loving heart. You could see that she wasn't just performing for the cameras. She genuinely cared about others. This was a fitting tribute because Diana really was England's rose.

    It could only take a consummate professional and a dear friend of Diana to pull that off.. no one will ever come close to a tribute like that - not now, not ever! That is the definition of a heart felt tribute to a beautiful friend. God bless you Elton and thank you.

    "Candle In The Wind" was written by Elton John & Bernie Taupin in 1973 in honour of Marilyn Monroe. Elton later used the same melody but changed the lyrics to pay tribute to Princess Diana in 1997. It was changed to "Goodbye England's Rose".

    Princess Diana was a beautiful person inside and out. 🙏♥I am an Elton John fan I watched the funeral . Also the wedding. She requested a patriotic Church Hymn to be sung at her wedding. They also sang it at her funeral. It is called ... Jerusalem. The group ELP recorded Jerusalem and did a fanatic job. HOWEVER it was initially banned from the BBC because "how dare you turn a beloved church hymn into a rock hit." Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Jerusalem

    A few interesting facts about this version of the song:
    1- it’s the second best selling song of all time, only beaten by White Christmas.
    2- the song was #1 on Billboard for 14 weeks, a record he held for over 20 years.
    3- he only performed it once, and vowed to only perform it again at the request of Prince William or Prince Harry

    I bought a cd with just one song on it... this one.
    Some folks thought it was lame to repurpose a used song... and I can only imagine what he might have written given time.. but there was no time... and changing up the lyrics might seem easy.. but he captured the essence of the loss to the world... with only days to do "HER" justice.
    and, on a personal note.. thanks for bringing back that memory, because its a bigger memory... I took my mom to many concerts.. but the last one before she passed was Elton... playing three 'small towns' in Alberta Canada.
    I live in Red Deer... and he played these three small towns to 'work out the bugs', for his then, next world tour.
    hard to even imagine bugs in the show, since it was just Elton, at the piano.. no band, no singers... just 2 hours of good ol' Elton.
    My Mom's vision was crap by then, so she couldn't really see his outfits, but unlike when I took her to Pink Floyd.. the Rolling Stones, etc, etc... there was no "show" that she missed... we had 2nd row seats, and the spotlight on him and his piano was enough for her to know she wasn't really 'missing' anything.
    OK... I've babbled long enough... and I'm crying...👍🏼✌🏼🇨🇦
    ...Back for an edit.. you mentioned seeing her in your mind's eye smiling, etc, but not maybe knowing much about her... the lines in the song about placing herself in the world... she was big on and travelled to open the world's eyes to children dealing with land mines, etc. The line "You placed yourself where lives were torn apart"... SHE was what the royalty needed... too bad things got so f*d up, she died running from paparazzi. SIGH..........
    (I have a couple, well, a few folks on my list of "Gone TOO soon"... a musician(John Lennon)... an author(Robert A. Hienlien)... and a "Princess"🤔

I saw it on TV again and I was mesmerized and moved seeing the huge crowd and the commotion on the faces of English people. That was something you very rarely see. I'm not English but I'm still moved by all that.

    I was 14 when sadly we lost Princess Di. She may of been stripped of her royal title but that never meant a thing to the People of Britain. She always will be the People's Princess. Even now as a 40 year old man it still makes me emotional looking back on that day. I just remember the whole country hitting the brakes hard! Instant stand still! We all shed tears over the news of her passing. So so sad as she was finally happy in her life.
    Elton john loved her dearly and to write this and perform this for the world after his loss must of been so difficult.
    A beautiful song for a beautiful Princess!
    Sorry for the story. She was just everything to my country and so loved by all.

    Don't get too choked up about it. He rewrote the song he made for Marilyn Monroe and stapled Diana's name onto it. And don't be misled into thinking Diana was some great humanitarian. Throughout her public presence in life, she would show up to some location where humanitarian effort WAS being made, would stay long enough to do an interview and photo-op, then promptly leave, typically in no more than 8 hours or so. Her cousin Fergie however, has put in DECADES of humanitarian effort in the actual locations, _living there_ in those desperately hard situations, on the frontlines of the areas Diana only briefly visited for those photo-ops. Fergie did the work, hands-on, but because she was deemed unattractive, nobody paid her any interest. Diana was effectively useless throughout her time despite the international media salivating over her every move.

    I don't like Feudalism or Monarchies as a concept. I believe they are relics of the past and should stay there. But I can still appreciate Dianna on the merits of being a kind and generous soul. The unfortunate irony that historically so few in positions of power actually used it to help people. So very few examples of that when you think about it.

      @@user-cv8gn8hy9m There's probably a whole lot more context to that situation than we know. Being that they are a 'Royal' family might also suggest she didn't have much say in the marriage, which was likely more of a binding financial or political contract.
      I don't really know enough about it to pass judgement. It is an objectively bad thing to happen but I doubt her love-life precludes/precluded her from doing good where she could. We can't all be saints in every aspect of life.
