Fun Fact: 50 years ago today, Elton John made his first US performance at The Troubadour on Sunset Strip in LA.
David Rose Wow! How did you know that, man? 👍👍👍
Turd Ferguson Saw it on the news this morning lol
David Rose RESPECT! 👍👍👍
Zoey The Savannah Oh, stop it! I’ve read your comments and they’ve been great! We all edit sometimes! All good! 💖💖💖👍
Sweet! 🤩
Every song on this double album is a gem. Candle in the Wind is probably the most famous.
I practically wore the record out playing it so much! Every song is so good!
Alan Peterson one of many bests from Elton
@@carolgerlt7183 I purchased at least 2 of the albums and 1 CD and now on digital. LOL. It's FANTASTIC, but Funeral for a Friend is my vote as album's best track.
@@carolgerlt7183 same here, great Album, pure gold. 🇬🇧♥️
have a weakness for Harmony. If my oldest had been a girl, he would have been named after an Elton song. Every song is amazing though.
“Funeral for a Friend “! It’s basically Elton’s “Bohemian Rhapsody.” It’s my favorite Elton John song.
Mine, too!
Me too!
Right... but you MUST play "Love Lies Bleeding" with it... they were made to be played together.
It’s Eltons Stairway to heaven
“The Roses 🌹 in the window box 📦 had tilted to one side”🎹
He is talking about someone like a record producer who is trying to make him sell out. He is telling the story of a farm boy, just a story, who would rather go back to plowing and the howling of owls in the woods, back to the horny back toad....it is just metaphors....written by Bernie Taupin, it is simple a story about a guy who decided selling out was not for him. So your promises of finding the wizard and wealth are not important. I am going back home.
Tango Eliott Thank you! I thought it was a break up (with a lover) song! That is so clever!
@@llmitchellb I thought it was what Jayvee said
I thought it was the song Bernie wrote about himself, after having a falling out with Elton
@@yorkiemom6144 I think I know what you mean. Are you talking about the rocket man movie. That didn't actually happen in real life. At least I don't think. They never had an argument in the 50 years that they have been working together
@@yorkiemom6144 Can you site source? I would love to read that. Thanks
"Bennie and the Jets," "Honky Cat," "Your Song," "Tiny Dancer," "Daniel," "Crocodile Rock," "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting," "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road," "Philadelphia Freedom," "The Bitch Is Back," "Rocket Man," "Island Girl," "Pinball Wizard," "Blue Eyes," "Little Jeannie," "I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues," "Club at the End of the Street," "Healing Hands," "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word," "Circle of Life," "The One,"...so many!
Fab, forgot some of them, love Blue Eyes, thanks
Could you repeat that?
I thought Pinball Wizard was the Who, part of Tommy but I guess I was wrong.
@@MyMomo17 it was, Elton acted and performed Pinball Wizard for Tommy the movie.
Don't let the sun go down on me!
If you want to hear an interesting song by Elton John that takes off, listen to "Funeral For A Friend / Love Lies Bleeding". It is long, but worth it.
Funeral For a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding
His masterpiece IT ROCKS🎸
Ditto
And I think the ultimate version is Live in Central Park. That was NUTS!
@@MoMoMyPup10 LOVE THIS SONG!
"levon" is another one of his best
Yes - love that song! I think I read that it’s one of Jon Bon Jovi’s favorite songs.
Levon and many of the songs on Tumbleweed Connection were great! I really enjoyed this period of Elton John best, as it was one of his earlier albums...and I was 16-17 years old....
Agreed, love that whole album, probably my favourite (although it's pretty hard to pick a fave from such a massive, wonderful catalogue)
I can’t believe it’s taken so long for someone to mention Levon 💜
I mentioned all of Tumbleweed Connection, especially Where to Now, St. Peter?
Ok. Now we’re talking! Get strapped in, kids!! This song is a real ride. 💖💖💖🌸💝🥰
Hey Kim, agreed, love all these songs, these two (Elton and Bernie) are probably the most amazing duo of our time, and what's more amazing is they did their part, Bernie writing the lyrics, and Elton the actual music. Iconic, and never grows old.
Turd Ferguson, right?!!!! Turd, you should look up Sara Bereillis playing/singing this here on youtube. Her rendition is a bit different but very, very good, IMO. Nothing tops Elton back in the day, though.
Brenda McLaughlin G’day Brenda! Definitely. A lot of folks have said over the years that the quintessential songwriter teams are Elton and Bernie and Lennon and McCartney. I have to agree. 💖💖👍
Rob F Thanks, mate. I’ll definitely check it out! 👍👍💖
You could be listen to Elton John songs for hours and hours and not hear a bad one. My favorite is "Tiny Dancer".
Totally agree! I love Little Jeanie, Friends and Empty Garden (about John Lennon)
My favorite is "Belfast". Amazing song.
Madman Across the Water is a great album as well and the song itself is amazing. Someone Saved My Life Tonight is another great song. In fact all songs by Elton John are great
Elton John is/way a fine artist, but i always had a problem with some of his vocals on his earlier songs. A prime example would have to be 'Tiny Dancer.' As good as that song is, why did he feel the need to sing in a ridiculous American accent? The way he stretches his vowels to sound like a yank always bothered me, when the guy was from Pinner. He could only of had the green stuff on his mind, and personally, i feel that lacks a certain integrity!
Tiny Dancer always takes me back to the movie "Almost Famous", the bus scene.
He's leaving the High Society and going back to the farm , hunting the horny back toads. He said he should have listened to his old man and stayed on the farm. The simple life is happier than people with money and booze
ITCJon That’s what I’ve always assumed. “I’m not a present for your friends to open.”
The owl is hunting toads.
The story goes that Elton's co-writer Bernie Taupin wrote these lyrics about how he planned to part ways with Elton because he didn't enjoy the rock & roll lifestyle.
Yep that’s exactly right
He wrote it ABOUT Elton, or about the record company?
MoMoMyPup10 he didn’t like I guess you can say the celebrity rock n roll lifestyle
“Levon” is such a great song as well.
I suggest "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" for your next Elton John song.
The melancholy in this song really hits you in the heart....I had forgotten how incredible this song was. So timeless as well no wonder EJ is still performing and successful
He had a regular band: Davey Johnstone, Nigel Olsson, and Dee Murray, plus so many others throughout the years. He had sooooooooo much great music, more than just the pop hits on the radio. You should dig deeper, you'll love it.
Don't forget Ray Cooper. Saw Elton and Ray live, just the two of them. Incredible.
"Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" is another *brilliant* song by Elton and Bernie. Have you reacted to "Daniel" yet?
'Daniel' is an incredible song also 'funeral for a friend/love lies bleeding' although you may find yourself doing the white man dance.
Daniel, YES! I hope he does the smoothest beautiful song that he has ever done. I hope Jayvee does that one sometime. My Dad even used to love the song. He had a brother named Daniel who died as a child during the Spanish Flu. Yes, it was that long ago. I was a late son.
Daniel !!
@@RayRay-zt7bj My mom's brother died in the Vietnam war. His name was David. My mom and I would always sing that song together when we'd here it, but put in David's name in place of Daniel.
Omg Daniel. I just got chills even thinking about that song! So good!!
My favourite Elton John song. Has special memories!!
Finally!!! An absolutely beautiful song. 🧡 Love it. Now on to listen to “Philadelphia Freedom”. 🎵
Texas Lyoness totally agree with both songs xx
Yes, it's hard to pick a favorite - but this one, "Philadelphia Freedom" and "Tiny Dancer" are my favorites... but I love so many more too!
Yep, Sir Elton is one of the greats. Yellow Brick Road was one of my first albums.
Elton John has many greats songs:
"Someone saved my life tonight", maybe my personal favourite, beautiful and melancholic.
"Funeral for a friend / Love lies bleeding in my hands", album opener on "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road", Elton's Bohemian Rhapsody?! (Which is my favourite song of all time.)
"Candle in the wind" famous song first written for Marilyn Monroe and than rewritten and sang on the funeral of Lady Diana. Saddest thing ever.
Totally agree
One of the most beautiful songs ever...
I can't stop getting excited every time I hear it... Sublime
His first 5 albums are all you need. They are all great, close your eyes and just point one and you can't lose. I was a teenager in the 70's and he was as good as anybody.
Me too
Throw in Captain Fantastic
Same here. My first album I bought was "Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player". Fan for over 50 years. Saw him 5 times. He ages like a fine wine. Im fanatic.❤✌🌻🌻
I've loved Elton John since I was in elementary school. My favorites are Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me and Believe. But I pretty much love all of his songs.
I agree. I’m 39 and I was raised on his music. It’s very nostalgic and meaningful for me. He’s such a phenomenal musician.
Double album ....played this over and over.
Loved Harmony
Now Benny and the Jets!
Absolutely
Benny and the Jets made me nauseous it was played so much. I was much more a fan of Elton's more serious and melodic work.
"Daniel" is one I really love. Very deep, touching.
I saw Sir Elton in 2009. When he started "Daniel", I started crying, which I did not expect.
Classic Album
Great band, world class musicians, all putting the work in.
Elton "Saturday night's alright for fighting". You'll like it Jay
My sista looks cute in her britches & boots- handful of grease in her hair!
Written about a Saturday night watchin the locals fighting in a pub 15 miles away from where i live.
They will play Funeral for a Friend at my funeral. I have requested it, it's one of the best with Love Lies Bleeding.
I hope you'll react to Elton John's "Empty Garden", which he dedicated to the memory of his friend John Lennon.
“Someone Saved My Life Tonight” by Elton John.... hollllly hell ❤️🤘
I still have this album. This and "Bennie and the Jets" were my jam 👍❤️
BaBaBaBennyntheJets
Great song by Elton
You are sooo close! Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding! Same album
@gary nelson indeed
I always took this song as a guy being fed up with celebrity. Going back to the farm he came from.
Levon, Burn Down the Mission, Amoreena, Ticking, Captain Fantastic, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Mona Lisa's and Mad Hatters.. I could pick so many great songs.
Bernie Taupin is my favorite lyricist ever. And Elton is just a legend. His discography is vast. The Beatles and Elton John...I could live on them forever.
One of my old college buddies was a huge Elton fan, and played piano himself. He subsequently went on to become a known TV producer in America and had his own reality and chat shows, also appeared on Undercover Canadian Boss. He's back in the UK now, with his little dog, and his twin lives here and is a drama teacher. We all used to hang out and were in the same drama classes together. Happy days 💙🎶✊
Hi from the UK, well I have said before ,,, a great big legend ,,, from my side of town OMG 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩.
Elton John songs to react to: I'm Still Standing, I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues, Sad Songs(Say So Much), Bennie and The Jets, Daniel, Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me!
Elton John has a lot of songs that make you go "Wow I can see why this guy is a legend and household name" definitely do a dive on his stuff your soul will thank you
“Philadelphia Freedom “ and “ Rocket Man” and “ Empty Garden” are a few of his huge hit lisr
An amazing singer, and band as well. He has always been my favorite.
He was a child prodigy playing the piano at age 4 classically trained disappointed his parents when he changed his name and became a rock star
What I read in an interview, Bernie taupin, the lyricist, and Elton John who wrote the songs from the lyrics....they were a duo for many years. Bernie grew up on a farm in England from a very poor family where he indicated that even in the 60’s their farm wasn’t wired for electricity. Once Elton/Bernie made it HUGE, and dealing with all the drugs and alcohol involved and anger issues, Bernie wanted out of that business arrangement and wanted to to a quieter life, hence, I wanna go back to my plough,
Always enjoyed listening to Elton John. Definitely painted a picture and made you feel
best concert i ever saw -elton john on our country's bicentennial -july 4th, 1976 at foxboro stadium where the n.e.patriots used to play. 23 years old then and elton played for 3 hours dressed in a red white and blue sequinned uncle sam suit with a top hat and shorts. and of course the encore was philadelphia freedom. a concert never to be forgotten. unfortunately no footage of it exists that i can find. it's a shame
What a fantastic memory to have
it was definitely something special. probably been to a couple of hundred concerts - still the best by far.jethro tull was the next best
I remember when this album came out!! Awesome album!! Lot of great songs!! So much talent!! Stay safe!
How much better, can anyone make a song? As solo singers go, he is on the very top the tree. I first saw him, in 1971, I was 9 then, he was 24, a youngster with thick blond hair. Talent beyond talent.
I remember being in elementary school and finding out that pinball wizard and Lucy in the sky weren't his song's. Still two of the best covers ever imo...♡
I absolutely love your reactions. You so get it. You're always wanting to know more. LOVE IT!!!❤❤❤
That whole album was fantastic. It was a double album. Popular when I was in high school. Elton was always played at parties and events. Great memories.
"Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" has been my favorite song for 20+ years. Still makes me emotional in the right way.
One of my favorite Elton John songs! I'm Still Standing, I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues...he's a class act!
This was the first record I ever bought - could have been 47 years to the day because I bought it with birthday money (birthday on August 23rd). I can't believe that I'm really that old - was 10 at the time - or that this record still stands up so well almost 1/2 a century later.
Great song
One of his best. Also "Blue eyes" is a particular favourite of mine. Thanks Jay, very nice.
That whole album was awesome. Funeral go a Friend is astounding.
I would like to see your reaction to rockin’ Elton either “The Bitch Is Back” or “Saturday Nights Allright For Fightin’”.
Check out: Saturday Night is alright for fighting, Bennie & the Jets and Philadelphia Freedom
If you haven't seen the movie Rocketman yet, I highly recommend it.
I tried to start watching it but it seems like opera with singing everything. Awful.
But know in advance that it is different, kind of like a musical.
Incredible movie!!
@@suem6004 It's not like an opera. It's a drama/ Comedy/Bio with great productions of his music
Don't expect "Bohemian Rhapsody", it's more of a Broadway musical in movie form.
Hi from Brisbane, Australia. Love your reactions
Linda Cox Sydney! 🙋♀️🇦🇺
I'm up in Cairns.
I'm glad you listened to this! Elton John was HUGE in the 70s, and I think the best introduction to his work is Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.
Lots of hits after this, like Philadelphia Freedom, Daniel, Someone Saved My Life Tonight, Bennie and the Jets, and so on. I think the 70s was his best period.
This is the first Elton album I purchased way back in the early 70's, loved it, also on this album is candle in the wind written originally about Marilyn Monroe and re written in 97 as a tribute to princess Diana, it was released as a chatity single and remains the second biggest selling single of all time. You should check out the original version, also someone saved my life tonight from his captain fantastic album my favourite Elton song. I love seeing your reaction to songs I have grown up with it's a bit strange really because these artists are mega star's to people of my generation and you just assume everybody knows who they are and what great songs they've recorded.
So good! Your eyes lit up at the exact point in the song that hooked me years ago...just divine! ❤️
We were all singing these songs brother, thank you and the other brothers and sisters for listening to these classics 👍they each bring back good memories 💯👈👈👈😊😊😊😊
Great Elton John classic! Also, "Yellow Brick Road is the name of the best cover band in Las Vegas for the past 20 something years. They originally started out as an Elton John cover band but went on to do classic rock fro groups like The Knack, Pink Floyd, Journey, Aerosmith, Ozzy Ozbourne, Lynard Skynard and much more! They are still going strong (aside from the Covid19 break) with a new lead singer. Their original lead singer Brody Dolyniuk was and STILL is the producer of the band. I got to see him make a comeback performance with the band this past New Year's Eve. It was awesome!!
Born in ’79. Know every word. One of my favourite songs ever. Elton is the pianist. This ones about the music industry. Want about his recovery from drugs and alcohol, “I’m Still Standing”. He’s 31 years sober, God bless Elton 🏴
It's amazing how much higher Elton John's voice was in a younger day.
This is a killer album. When it first dropped back in 74, I was in junior high school. Our music teacher played us the entire album. "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road", still gives me goosebumps...over 40 something odd years on.
He's got so many great songs. Love Your Song, one of he's much older ones. He's had an interesting life. Check out his story which is still ongoing luckily. LOL check out some of his 1970's live performances. He wore some crazy outfits and sunglasses. Great performer.
This and “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me” are my 2 favorites! I love your reactions and there’s probably a 50 year age difference between us!
One of the great rock albums ever made. What you should remember about Elton John songs is that he writes the music while his songwriting partner Bernie Taupin writes the lyrics so you really can't take the songs as autobiographical. This song is about a singer refusing to sell out and going back to the simple life on the farm. Elton John never had any desires to live a simple life on a farm!
I laughed a little when you said Elton John must be popular! Over the years he’s had 9 number one chart topping hits along with a hundred others falling shy of that goal. He’s sold so many records he is a billionaire! Yeah. I’d say he is popular. So popular in fact that Queen Elizabeth II knighted him. He is now Sir Elton John. 🥰🥰🥰😉😉😉
Probably this is my favorite song of Elton John ❤️
England's most favourite singer bless him all his songs are great. Jay please react to Daniel or sacrifice please. He has such a great voice. Love him. Not so much into drink but he did do other things back in the day he has talked about that a lot. He was a great friend of David Bowie. Mick jagger so many and our beautiful princess Diana they were great friends. ☺☺💖💙💖
Love Elton John's music.Brilliant arrangement on this one.
This is the ultimate Elton John! Love it! Love it!
Your genuine reaction made me relive my love for the song. Thank you!
Always liked his music. What a talented man. Great reaction.
Gotta love these feel good songs. The feelings he sings with his voice...just makes you dreamy...
Such a beautiful song i have never gotten tired of hearing it!
Sir Elton John a living legend. Knighted for his services to music. Such a beautiful soul and voice
I was a tot when i heard this song for the first time and remember feeling deeply moved then already. Music speaks. Haunting, melancholic, beautiful😍
"Hey hey Johnny" is a tribute song for John Lennon. Very moving.
I reckon Elton John is the greatest pop/rock artist ever. Not only is he a prolific song writer, but a massive catalogue of really great songs and the ability to perform them as well live as they were n the albums. A rare attribute!
"Ticking" is a phenomenal story and one of Elton John's best. Very powerful.
Elton John is ONE OF THE BEST performers!!! Listen to him even more & u will come to see that. He has SO MANY great songs. He sings a very beautiful song in honor of John Lennon, called... "Empty Garden".
The writer Benny Taupin was raised on a farm in England and the big rich life was overwhelming and too different to handle for his humble upbringing..The Yellow Brick Road is a reference to Wizard of Oz and being in Kansas on a farm .The yellow brick road is the fantasy world that he did not want anymore .
His reaction to this song, is literally everyone’s reaction to this song when they first heard it, this honest to god, one of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard in such a long time
You are bringing some GREAT songs tonight Jovaughn......Love watching your reactions..... . Back with a BANG 💥❤️
This is my favourite Elton song. Thank you. 🎶🎧
So glad you found Elton. Another iconic musical genius. This is one of my fav songs. Enjoy the Elton train. Toot toot
This is simply my favorite song from Elton... It makes my eyes wet each time.
I just love music and when I see someone listening to a piece for first time wow it's like I heard it for the first time all over again! Elton John is always a good choice! Anything from is catalog is a winner!
The First Album I ever bought back in 1973,as a 13 year old,thought it was amazing then and the songs still stand up today,great memories,great reactions,keep up the great work my friend 👍👍
I really love your reactions!
Today "Wonderful Life" by Black came to my mind. Beautiful melancholic.
I was only 11 years old when I first heard this masterpiece, and it still haunts today as it did 47 years ago. It doesn’t get any better than this👍🏻Very good review.
One of my favourite Elton John songs! It’s in my top 100 songs of all time!!!😃👍☮️❤️
Good interpretation of this song. The backup dinner's and orchestra are awesome. One of my favorite Elton John songs.
