“Come Down in Time” and “Love Song”. And “Rotten Peaches” and “Indian Sunset” from Madman. Too many to name. What a lifetime of masterpieces. ✨😉
Can’t recall another reactor who is moved to tears for the sheer beauty of the music. That’s why you’re special, Nick, and your audience will only grow. Thank you!
There are a few others that are also moved to tears.... remains rare and fantastic, though.
Your reaction to Blues for Baby and Me is priceless. Elton John can do that to you sometimes. He's a true living legend.
Skyline Pigeon is one of his greatest songs. A fan favorite and he does it often in concert, even though it was the B side of Daniel. Very beautiful and inspiring.
I can't imagine my life as a teenager without Elton John. Yeah some of it brings tears to the eyes.
"Friggin' beautiful" is exactly right. Welcome to the world of Elton John!
If music can’t make you cry, you don’t love music. This is a wonderful reaction. I was an Elton John freak as a kid, but I haven’t revisited any one of these particular songs in decades. I cried a bit along with you.
From '70 to '76 Elton, Bernie, Gus and the band (especially Dee, Nigel and Davey) knocked it out of the park every time. I was eight years old in '73 when I got 'Don't Shoot Me'. Hooked me for life. Thanks Nick and thanks to whoever picked all these deep cuts
Great reaction! You'll really enjoy so many tracks on "Tumbleweed Connection"--the entire album/ and "Madman Across the Water" the Title track , Razor Face, and Holiday Inn!! Also---a dark, indelible song of the times---"Ticking" from Caribou.....
How about Indian Sunset Which is one of Elton”s best.
@@joelliebler5690 And maybe my Fav. on the album, Rotten Peaches. Its his 2nd best Album behind Tumbleweed Connection.
@@MrRondonmon My 2 favorite also although I love his first American release too with Your Song, Take Me To The Pilot, Sixty Years On, and The King Must Die. Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only The Piano Man too is great!
You can go the full Madman album , Indian sunset is a big piece
@@stephanmissri9881 Great album as well as all Elton and Bernie’s first 5 or 6 albums!
Try his love song to New York City. Mona Lisas and Madhatters .
That and Madman are my favorites!
@@adamp2029 Yes. Those and Tumbleweed Connection. ✨🤪
the orchestration on Elton's eponymous album is incredible.
Paul Buckmaster needs more credit.
Oh so true about Mr. Buckmaster!
@@joelliebler5690Paul buckmaster was the defining sound of early elton r.i.p. p.m.
@@joelliebler5690 the SUPER 70S in all its splendor
@@kenperkins7921 For sure!
.
Thanks for your very human and sincere reaction! He’s my favorite artist of all time. No one sings/play a ballad like him.
It’s extremely difficult to actually listen to these songs and not be moved by them.
“Tonight,” “Have Mercy On The Criminal,” “High Flyin’ Byrd” are also a few other of the many masterpieces for which you may have the same reaction. But that “Blues For Baby And Me” always get me.🤣
Bernie Taupin's lyrics are just magic. Forgot about most of these songs. Beautiful.
He is an absolute legend and his influence on the development of music from 1970 onwards is immeasurable. Great to see you getting it Nick 👍
for me the whole double Goodbye yellow brick road album is just pure class
Elton John is the GOAT! You could do many marathons on Elton alone and still not exhaust his material. Huge discography! Example : Come Down In Time, Sails, Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me, Solar Prestige A Gammon, Cold As Christmas (In The Middle Of The Year), Believe, I'm Still Standing, The Club At The End Of The Street, You're So Static, Ticking, Bad Side Of The Moon - the list goes on and on and on!!!!!!!!!!!!
At least for his first four or five albums through Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.
@@joelliebler5690 Not so, Elton has had many great songs and many great albums. He wrote the score to the Lion King. Don't forget his duet with Leann Rhymes. Also his hits Believe and Blessed. There are many more. On the Billboard Singles Chart, Elton ranks forth of all time for hit singles and has had over 65 top 40 hits! He is truly the GOAT and is still hitting the singles and album charts today!
@@johnandrews3151 I am an old school Elton fan that knows almost every hit and most songs he has done. His heRt and soul got lost along the way by the late ‘70’s. His early music had his great vocal range with Paul Buckmaster’s great influence with the orchestration. Bernie’s songwriting along with Reggie’s musical ingenuity are unsurpassed in that style of music. He lost his vocal range later on and could not hit the high notes , therefore having a flatter and far less interesting sound on his own. If you listen closely to his early recordings compared to later on especially his live recordings you can tell the obvious difference.
Elton was the soundtrack to my teen age years. I devoured every album as it came out, listening over and over again. My friends and I would gather at one or the others house and do what you are doing. Just sharing some great music and enjoying our youth. I still listen to the music I enjoyed when I was young and watching you transports me back in time to those days, sharing with friends. Thank you for helping to keep this and other music alive!
I can so relate to that listening and scouring for another record I had yet to know.
very nicely written, that's exactly what happened to me too. what a lovely time with great music
Sir Reginald at his best! The list is endless and the well is deep. Start to finish in his career is nothing short of amazing. Lots of emotional music from EJ in his catalog. A really great and heartfelt reaction Nick, thanks for sharing my man!
I couldn't help myself man. Sorry:(
@@NicknLex my emotions get the best of me as well! Music, movies, books, a good Hallmark card...lol!
@@greybeard2280 Nothing wrong with that fella.
I’m just very thankful for my time on earth,born in ‘54,I lived it all.
WHAT an era.
Nothing will ever come close,never mind equal or better!
@@TheCornishCockney I agree my man! Born in '58 here, and the music from our era will never be matched.
@@greybeard2280 And I'm between you guys-'56!
God, I love Blues for My Baby and Me. Such an underrated deep cut of his. My favorite off this album. I wonder why he never really did it live, even when it was new. Perhaps he didn't think highly of it, but regardless, it packs a punch...as your reaction shows.
I don’t know, I love it too but I think it truly holds a tie with “High Flying Bird”.
So very glad that "Cage the Songbird" is included in this episode. Blue Moves is a phenomenal album. The playlist you were given is a tour de force of Elton and Bernie's work together. Tumbleweed Connection (excellent!) is an album that pays homage to American country/folk music which brought me to Elton. It's all "just beautiful "..... Cage brings me to tears ever time.
Nick.. I think you would LOVE Madman Across the Water, title track. It was released before Yellow Brick Road. I am a super fan of Elton and was fortunate enough to have seen him around 13 or 14 times, the first time being in 1973 for the Yellow Brick Road tour. The Elton from back in the day is head and shoulders above his later stuff, IMO. Hope you enjoy the music. His long time partner (musical) Bernie Taupin writes the lyrics that I fell in love with, while Elton composes the music. Again, the musical composition on Madman Across the Water is hauntingly beautiful and powerful. Have fun! PS: I LOVE the fact that you get emotional.. that is what music is supposed to do.. again.. if you have not listened to Madman, please do.. I promise you won't be able to get through it with dry eyes! Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters is another good one.. so is We all Fall in Love Sometimes/Curtains from Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy (from the end of the world to your town), although Captain Fantastic should be listened to from start to finish as it tells Elton and Bernie's story.
Madman is awesome. Both you and Lex need to experience it.
I feel so blessed I grew up in the 1970's. The music/new acts just kept coming. To name a few, Bowie, Elton John, supertramp, Steely Dan, Doobies, Little River Band, The Police, Rush, all broke. It was an amazing decade. Feel sorry for the kids today! Hence why 70's and 80's music is so popular 😄😄
Great selections. I knew all of them but the last one. Thanks Jose. Loved Elton from “Your Song”. Elton and Bernie for awhile. Great job, Nick. And the tears are sweet. When our hearts are full, any nudge of beauty makes them overflow. I get it. Thanks ✨😍
Thank Michele🌹
WOW at last someone who GETS IT.
I have numerous tracks that just gets my emotions going like you said it's not because I'm sad or anything else it's just BEAUTIFUL MUSIC it's what music is all about.
Loving your honesty in your reactions.
PS Jus suis malade by lara Fabian is one of those tracks lol
Mona Lisa and mad hatters. Loved him from the moment I heard him
Blues for Baby and Me is my favourite EJ song. Great choice.
The first time I saw EJ in concert, I cried through almost the entire show. Then the second time I saw him I was able to control myself until he did "Come Down in Time" and I was sobbing again. I get it.
Sting did a beautiful cover of "Come Down In Time" for the "Two Rooms" tribute album in the 90's.
So here's the thing... all these 70s CLASSIC genius songs by Elton? He composed them in roughly 20-30 minutes each. Bernie Taupin would write the lyrics by himself first and later he would hand Elton a stack. Elton would look a lyric over and then just instantly compose a timeless classic. The next morning he'd teach it to the band and they'd work out how to approach it, and by bedtime it was done!
I'm Back for the tears and Blues for Baby and Me. Unbelievable beauty. Sitar, Drum, Strings.
Finally someone reacts to some Blue Moves. A great and underrated album. Cage The Songbird is beautiful man. React to "Where's The Shoorah?" from the same album.
This was an absolute mega marathon. The best thing is these songs that you reacted to, I have never seen another reactor reactor to. Bravo. If you want to hear an Elton John song with some wicked guitar, try the Mad Man Across the Water cut with Mick Ronson turning in a spine tingling solo in the outro. I believe it is included on the album Tumble Weed Connection. I have double shot suggestion. Band Maid Manners/Black Hole that is a two for one video. ( Sorry, I am a total Maidiac). Finally, I must admit that your accent has always thrown me. When I first discovered you and Lex, I knew that your accent was not totally rooted in the states. Once I subscribed, You mentioned being born in Germany. Having been a long time fan of many German bands, I certainly heard many German musicians speaking English, but your accent was not like the accent that I was used to. Soon after that you mentioned spending many years in Mexico, so I figured, well that's it, Nick is used to speaking Spanish. But the more I heard you speak, I quickly discovered that you definitely did not have a Spanish accent. Your English diction is too good. So I just settled everything in my own mind that you have a German, Mexican, American accent, and it is perfect. Once again, thank you for your wonderful reactions, Remember. Always stay curious, and continue to explore. Cheers.
As a kid, I got hooked on his song, "Bennie and the Jets". After hearing a few others of his on the radio, I bought his 'Yellow Brick Road' album and played it over and over! The obscure " B" side cuts became some of my favorites. "Grey Seal", " Seen That Movie Too" were a couple as well as "The Ballad of Danny Baily" and "All the Young Girl's Love Alice" although at the time, I didn't get the lyrics of that one at first 😂, but loved the music and vocals!
Heidi, those are some of my favorites of that album also. That's what was so cool about Jose's picks. They weren't all the hits, he dove deep.
I’m crying watching you cry. Those early Elton John albums are just magical. Always been a fan, tough not to be while listening to albums like Honkey Chateau, Elton John, Tumbleweed Connection, Madman Across the Water, Don’t Shoot Me, Goodbye Yellowbrick Road and on and on. Thanks Nick and Jose for a great video. ❤️
this music is incredible such great memories when I here this whole elbum.he is my all time favorite and that's saying a lot with all music in this Ara.❤️
Really good songs here cannot wait to watch love you guys
Daniel, Levon, Mona Lisa's & Mad hatters are up there on my EJ list. Daniel makes me cry the most I think.
Not only did he release 2 albums in 1 year but one was a double album. An abundance of great music by him in '73.
Music invokes memories and feelings. I cry at the drop of the hat when I hear great music or see things that remind me of past memories. Sometimes just the sheer beauty of the music makes me cry. Also I think of songs that relate to me and my girlfriend....whom I've just met. Music is powerful.
Elton's core band of Davey Johnstone Guitar, Dee Murray Bass, Nigel Olson Drums, were such a solid backing for Elton. The early stuff is Priceless. Great Reaction Nick. Peace...
Nick, just another great marathon. I was pleasantly surprised to see an Elton John marathon. And Jose, some nice choices. What I loved about Jose's picks is, they were all great songs, but they weren't just the hits that everybody does. It's good to turn people onto the other cuts. But especially the Goodbye Yellow Brick Road songs. All three of those songs are some of my favorites off that great album. I was sitting here watching & singing along with I've seen that movie too, great song.
Nick, what I also loved was your real emotions coming out during those first couple of songs.
Elton's band is amazing to, they've been with him most of his career. Davey Johnstone on guitar, Nigel Olsson on drums, Dee Murray on bass & Bernie Taupin writing the lyrics for Elton's music.
Nick, they do have some songs with some rocking guitar. Saturday night's alright for fighting, All the Young Girls Love Alice, the Bitch is back & he does a killer cover of the Who's Pinball Wizard.
Great job Nick, & I just seen you have a Blood Sweat & Tears marathon so I'm going to check that out next.
I would live to request some marathons for myself, have a few different ones that I think you would enjoy. Keep it going Nick
Nice list
Deep cuts
He has 100s of good songs. Dozens of huge hits. This shows songs many won't know unless they grew up with him :)
I was a fan since Your Song and the first album I bought was Madman Across The Water. And I bought every album after that up until Blue Moods. I was definitely an early adopter!
This was wonderful. Another Elton marathon please. This time with Funeral for a friend/Love lies bleeding, Madman across the Water, Country Comfort, Levon and Stinker all classics! Keep up the good work.
everyone who grew up with EJ will give you half a dozen songs that are essential, that aren't on each others' lists.
you simply have to listen to every album.
The 70's were spoiled with Elton John and Billy Joel on grand pianos
It's next to impossible to pick a favorite Elton John album, but one that I particularly like is "Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy." The title track and "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" are especially good songs.
If you want to hear an Elton John song with guitar, you've got to hear "Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting", it's the hardest rocking EJ song you'll hear, great electric rhythm guitar!
He was encouraged by Leon Russell who he saw doing what he wanted to do, Leon actually took him on tour with him in early 1970's. He repaid him later in life when Leon wasn't doing well and they recorded an album together and Elton lobbied hard to get him into Hall of Fame
This Song Has No Title is amazing.
Bernie Taupin has a way of making you feel the way he felt.
One of the greatest songwriters of any generation. Back in the 1970s he could do no wrong.
Blues For Baby and Me is in my Top Five Elton Songs. Its Glorious!
"I've Seen That Movie, Too" has long been one of my favorite of the lesser-known songs by John & Taupin. The whole piece is such a fantastic combination of all aspects of writing and recording. The guitar work, with what sounds like phasing or a similar effect, knocks me out. But the lyrics and singing are spot on, too.
Beautiful reaction to one of the greatest musicians of our time. The 1st two songs were only somewhat familiar and I'd never heard the last one, with the gorgeous harmonies of Crosby and Nash! The cuts from GYBR are some of my faves, especially "Grey Seal!" I spent a lot of time with that incredible double album as a teen. It was great to revisit them and give a closer listen to the others!
🎵❤️🎵
I get it. I've always thought "Blues for Baby & me" was such a beautiful song. I've loved it since I was 14 years old. Another one that I think is equally beautiful is "Mona Lisas & Madhatters" from the Honky Chateau album. That one always gets to me as well. "I think it's David Crosby and Graham Nash singing harmony vocals on Cage the Songbird."
Blues for Baby and Me always brings a lump to the throat even as it caresses your heart.
I am so appreciative of these selections by Sir Elton you've made Nick!! It just goes to show that there was much more than just the hits these albums produced!! I understand the emotion they bring. Having been a teenager in the 70's, living in the suburbs of Chicago, I was exposed to sooo much unbelievably great music that I would have a tough time where to even start!! This why I appreciate you listening to what I listened to in my younger days (and still do). My two favorite tunes here are "Blues For Baby And Me" and "I've Seen That Movie Too". Thank You for this wonderful reaction.
Hi Nick. Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the marathon and that you played some lesser known songs.The first elton song i heard was Honkey Cat back when it first came out in the 70s so you can guess how old i am.I immediately bought the LP and after that any time a new Elton album came out I bought it immediately without hearing any song off of it first because i knew it would always be good and I was never disappointed. He is a musical genius the way he is able to take a sheet of lyrics and quickly write a song.There is a RUclips video where someone gives him a washing machine manual and right on the spot he creates a tune for it on the piano and sings it.Amazing!!!!
When I was, like, 8 and 9, anytime my parent had to arrange for a sitter meant that it was Elton John Nite ---and that was 48 years ago, when he was in the midst of a solid half-decade bossing the airwaves
Well worth a listen: *11-17-70* ---a live radio broadcast in NYC that was edited down for an album mix (look for the entire show as the radio audience heard it; you'll find it on here)
What makes it stand out is the fact that while EJ wasn't accomplished in the States yet, absolutely every insider in the music biz knew that he was poised for a massive breakthrough, and he totally meets the moment ---enjoy
In England growing up, I only got to witness the later stuff of Elton John, late 80s/90s stuff was on all the tv channels still.
When princess Diana died and you see him George Michael walking together crying it’s heartbreaking to then listen to his rendered edition of “candle in the wind” / goodbye English rose; moves you to tears in the video - you can see Elton John holding it in as he’s playing - he and George loved her very very much.
My favourite song by EJ is “someone saved my life tonight” based on his attempted suicide.
George Michael is my favourite artist/singer/musician of all time - head and shoulders above anyone else. If you did a marathon on that I’d have to get the tissues ready for a complete emotional breakdown.
Lovely reaction this - from a fellow musician And song writer - I like your attitude and grace thank you sir
Beautiful pick and beautiful reaction
Great. I've always reacted exactly like you when I heard a piece of music that was beautiful and very good. I still do even at the age of 68. If you have the time listen to Elton's song "Feed Me". It is quite unknown but my absolute favorite. I recently discovered the group Jinjer and am totally absorbed by them and oh yes, there are tears.
Kudos to you young man. Instead of concentrating on his hits...you went for some of his best deep cuts. Songs that life long fans know and love so much.
Thank you Nick for doing this special Elton marathon.👍🏻❤️☮️🎹🎤
Elton John has an album called "Live from Australia" where he has an orchestra with all the songs and omg wow so so beautiful!! You would absolutely enjoy it, it gets me crying for sure!!! 💓🤗
This is the link to the (almost) full concert starting with his 16 piece band in the first half and then with the orchestra and band in the second half. Almost because there are three songs not included.
This was the final night of the Tour de Force televised live and simulcast on FM radio throughout Australia and New Zealand.
ruclips.net/video/P5IwEQDjZcc/видео.html
That album I s a beauty!
@@Scooterboi60 Thankyou so much for the link, I checked it out....just beautiful ❤️
@@Claudia-zu9wu I watch it all the time. It’s just awesome, I think anyway.
@Nick don't ever apologize for having emotions, it comes with the territory of being a musician. You can't be one without having passion for the music, without it you're just a guy with a guitar. To have music spark the emotion for a loved one that brings tears is a testament to the love you have for that person......
Nick, no need to apologise for an emotional reaction to music that moves you. Shows its real and you get it. It happens to all of us who love our music. Carry on being you Nick! 👍👍
Elton and Bernie we're master songwriters.
never be sorry for your tears, Nick - any song that doesn´t move the listener to tears is not worth a dime! and yes, Elton made 2 albums i a year and one is a double album - take this generation tictoc!!
What great titles you chose. I'm very happy about young people rediscovering this music because it will always be there because it's just so good... . great job and the emotions are so strong that they are understandable... because the music is just so touching!!! THANKS
Loved 🥰 this marathon. You are so precious. The way you feel the music 🎶
Did you mean "harpsichord" when you said "clarinet"? Anyway, sweet to hear all this music again. I turned 16 in 1970 so Elton John's music accompanied me on my journey into adulthood. And I cried gallons and gallons of tears during those years, often enough with Elton as the soundtrack.
If you want to react to more classic Elton marathon tunes with Lex here are Thor one’s I recommend; Take Me to The Pilot, Burn Down The Mission, Love Song,Levon, And Indian Sunset!
This selection of EJ songs is brilliant and vastly underrated
Fabulous selection. Such a discography you could repeat this another 10 times and still have quality
As great as these songs are, serious Elton fans know there are many other deep cuts that are as good or better. Nothing against this list....it is the AMOUNT of great songs that is incredible. A couple of others "Mona Lisa's and Mad Hatters", "Border Song" and "Sweet Painted Lady" being a couple more. Fantastic reaction!
BTW, in the Goodbye Yellow Brick Road time period, Elton would not look at the lyrics from Bernie Taupin only when he was in the studio and would write the music in 20 MINUTES.
Probably the best reaction to this iconic artist that I have ever seen and let us try and comprehend for a moment that these songs as great as they were wouldn't be found on Elton's "hit" list.Living legend for sure and you my friend have a new sub!
Its hard to believe that Elton never played such a great song as Blues for baby and me live. Its one of his best songs ever.
Elton John/Stevie Wonder - the 'musical twin-flames.'
Liaising along with you here, like you're in the room... And both of us wiping away tears, shaking our heads in disbelief at the beauty... Right along with everyone else here... I don't have the words. Thanks for this experience you've shared.
Those were all pretty much mellow songs. Elton can ROCK!
Burn Down The Mission is a must from Elton
Nigel on I've Seen that Movie Too...he owns this song.
Sublime. Each and every one of these songs...just amazing! ✌
On crying...us Elton fans get it.
dude, you dug deep. love it! I'm only 1/3 in and damn! Thought only I knew this...heh! This songs got no title? You are killing it
Yes I very much enjoyed that. Thank you.
I loved him.
The first song " I Need You To Turn To" with arrangements of Paul Buckmaster and Elton John is playing a harpsichord. Try to listen "First Episode at Hienton" and The Greatest Discovery" also with Paul Buckmaster arrangements.
Thanks Nick! Great tunes!
Just beautiful what a marathon the only thing Miss was Lex
blue moves is my fav album from e john crazy water the best track
The man is a musical legend.
What a great reaction. It's so cool to hear lesser known Elton John songs. I love how his music can make you FEEL SO MUCH!! Please react to the songs We All Fall In Love Sometimes and Curtains. They are back to back on the Captain Fantastic album. If you want to hear BEAUTIFUL MUSIC that will bring tears to your eyes - because it's so beautiful - these songs are a must!! I can't wait to see your reaction!! They move me every time and I want you to feel the same.
And great song selection!
Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only The Piano Player rocks! Lesser known gems include “Teacher I Need You”, “Elderberry Wine”, “Have Mercy On The Criminal” and yes I even like “Texas Love Song”.
Been a fan since the early 70s and when I saw him in concert in '97 he played Grey Seal as the deep cut. He always seems to play a different deep cut on each tour. In '82 he played Tickin'. Amazing! For another great deep cut, try High Flying Bird on Don't Shoot Me... just so beautiful.
DID YOU JUST GO TO A LOSS FOR WORDS MY FRIEND??? LOL :) THAT WAS GOOD I GOTTA TELL YA! HE'LL DO THAT TO YOU NICK, IT'S UNREALLLLL AND SUCHHHH A HUGE LIBRARY TO TAKE IN :) REMEMBERRR NO ROCK BAND EVERRRR DID WHAT HE DID WITH THOSE 7 STRAIGHT MULTI PLATINUM ALBUMS BETWEEN ( 71-75 ) , INSANE STUFF MAN
Couldn't get enough of EJ as a kid. He was everything. Right in the sweet spot of his peak and my burgeoning interest in music. 8th grade graduation present -- tickets to see him in Chicago, 1976. First concert, just special. I've ebbed and flowed with him over the years, but songs like these, deeper cuts, showing off so much of his range of talent ... incredible. Still makes the hair on my arms stand up. He's an all-timer. So glad you did this reaction; so glad (and not surprised!) that you enjoyed it.
Been an EJ fan since the early 70s, so about 50 years. He's a genius. Love all his songs. Never saw him live, did get to see him in the movie Tommy in 1975 age 14, Loved it. Loved him. Loved the song, loved his Beatle's cover too Lucy in the sky with Diamonds. He has something for everyone. 😊
I KNEWWWW YOU WERE GONNA TRIP ON ( I'VE SEEN THAT MOVIE ) ;) PRETTY INCREDIBLE HUH? :) DAVEY ON THAT GUITAR, NIGEL ON THOSE DRUMS, DEE ON THE BASS AND OF COURSE THE MAIN MANNNNN.
You should listen to Tumbleweed Connection! The whole album is perfect and it has one of my favorites Elton´s songs: Come down in time
Blues For Baby And Me off of Don’t Shoot Me . . . might be my favorite Elton John/Bernie Taupin tune.
