The thing about this classic song is that it is a simple song yet so challenging to do it justice when some tries to cover it. Also the base line is so simple but so! so! important, the way it comes in at specific times in the most subtle way is perhaps the key to this being such a great classic. This also had a special place in my heart because i too remember as a kid hearing for this first time and thinking what a cool song.
Jeff brother thanks so much for doing my request! You are always so astute about the songs and artists it's a joy to watch and listen to you. My nickname btw comes from the fact I have Stage 4 COPD and live daily in a 6-wheeled power wheelchair as I can no longer walk due to lack of oxygen. I was a singer and trumpet player as a young lad and miss playing and singing these songs. I stream now playling simulation games on YT and Twitch and I spend a lot of time watching reaction vids as they bring back so many good feelings and memories of days gone by. Thanks again Jeff! God bless!
My brother, it’s a pleasure having you as part of my channel. Sorry to hear about your struggles with your health and I sympathize greatly. You are an honorable Stratele Studios Warrior! 🫶
Good version of EJ, Jeff. I love the number of different little-known musicians and groups that your channel is valuing. Well, some have millions of views on the internet, but they are unknown to me. Each of those discoveries is a magnificent moment. Thanks
@@StrateleStudios Constantine and Darren (the lead singer in this video) were the co-founders of HSCC. They had a major (legal) falling-out and Darren left and founded Sing It Live. This also resulted in a split in the allegiances for a lot of the performers.
Superb absolutely superb
Love this! Elton is one of my absolute favorite artists! Elton & Bernie Taupin are a dream team! Was lucky enough to see him perform live in 1989! 🩷🩷🩷

I’ve never been an Elton John fan, but love his excellent songwriting. This was a beautiful performance.

The singer Darren and HSCC leader Con founded HSCC now sadly Darren and Con have parted- incredible talents both.
As a subscriber to their channel as well as HSCC, can honestly say I look forward to the vids weekly! ❤🔥🎆
