My God, as I lay in bed at 67, remembering this absolute legend, and song, I relies how blessed I am to be alive at this particular moment in time. It’s not going to get any better than this.
It's 4.24.24 at 2 am from West Virginia and Elton John is one of the greatest ever. I have seen him concert 9 time's and each concert was awesome. He definitely is a great performer. Hoping his health gets better from a nasty fall in his home. A great icon...
thank you for pointing this out, it's not just me, "one of the best songs ever written" I'm not just thinking personal effect, but many objective metrics, it just blows my mind like magic. The wiki page says that there was a man that pushed Elton on his vocals here, so he's to be thanked as well, because it's a whole character in this. This song is like a book.
We are so blessed Elton never died from any overdoses or diseases. It's a divine miracle. Look at all the beautiful catalog of music he & Bernie gave us. Soundtracks of lifetimes.
Well, truth be told... E & B only had that magic in the first half of one decade. Even Elton said, "We'll never be able to recreate what we had in the early seventies."
I was 32, homeless, 3 overdoses, 3 suicide attempts, given last rites Then someone showed me love 32 years fast forward, married a beautiful son, a beautiful wife and a daughter in heaven and my business is doubling every year 4 books in the writing, one is about to be published. I took that love and serve others now in 22 countries This song goes so deep to my heart Such gratitude Life is good Music is prayer 🙏❤️🔮🦋🙏
The words are Bernie's. And Elton adds brilliantly to the feelings that were already there. We hardly hear anything about Bernie, but I listen to him through these songs, his experiences and struggles, he really was just as important in this career as Elton himself.
I saw Elton live in 1974 Portland OR. He sat down at the piano at 8pm sharp and finished at 11:40pm (w a short break). Being the only act on the bill, it was advertised as 'An Evening with Elton John'. He was the biggest Rock/Pop act in the world. As you might guess, it was incredible. It seemed like he played every great song he wrote (w Bernie). A super far out evening indeed !
I didn’t see him til 1986-backstage-and of course I have a big mouth and yelled there he is! And he said shut the door lol but Bernie was pleasant. And I met 2 New York Metswho went on to win the World Series Ray Knight and Gary Carter!! It was the best concert I had ever seen and we had excellent seats!
The end of a bad relationship left me very depressed. I mean clinically depressed. I felt numb for a year, and just felt down after that passed. This song helped me to come out of that depression. Music can effect people on that level.
This song brings me back to when I was a teenager painting an Army Base in Rome N.Y. A bunch of us coworkers took a lunch break and then realized that one of our coworkers didn't come out of the building and wasn't having lunch with the rest of us. We went back in the building and there was paint fumes and our coworker was passed out on the floor. Around that time this song was playing on the radio. So we got our coworker count of the building and he survived. Thank God. So someone saved my life tonight means a lot to me even many years later😁
I was a major Beatle fan..Big time. But I loved Elton's music too. Now I am 75 yrs old and I never listen to any Beatle Songs. Today not a day goes by without an Elton song in it. Often times I sing myself to sleep singing "Your Song" The best words in any song is " How wonderfull life is while you're in the world". What a loving thing to say to another person. Elton's music will outlive many others.
Like ove said so much,thank you Bernie ,it would have all just been instrumental if he didn't exist and I'll bet none of us would have been listening to that station much growing up!lol?
This beautiful man saved my life. My regret is I couldn't be there to support him.. I was gifted Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by my sister who loved me more than I loved myself. I was doubly blessed to have both Elton and Eva in my life. I lost my sister to breast cancer and I am currently a CNA. Love is an amazing healer and I know what I'm doing. Thank you Reg and Bernie!
If you were young in the 1970s you will remember that he was the biggest entertainer in the world. In 1975 he had two albums in a row enter the US charts at number 1. No other artist in history has done that
Can not imagine life without his music filling every corner of it along the way,,,from the 70's up to now( 64 y.o. here),,.. best of the best...peace,, pat.
To me he seems almost underrated. People today still talk about the Beatles, Stones, Michael Jackson , Prince, Madonna and so on. Don't seem to hear as much about Elton John these days.
Lucy in the sky with diamonds originally a Beatles song , Eltons version is by far the best. I remember him on soul train , singing benie and the jets, in a pimp hat, yeah he was that cool
All that you mentioned are played out or disappeared, Elton John is still standing and relevant. No my friend Elton John is simply an established fact.
I have seen almost 1000 concerts. Seeing Elton just by himself (no band with him) in the mid 90's in Portland, Oregon was one of the top 3 shows ever. 20,000 fans just mesmerized. If ever there was an angelic voice, I would like to hear as I drift off to heaven it would be Eltons.
Yes, I saw Elton in 1993. Half the show solo, and for the second half he was joined by percussionist Ray Cooper, who was fantastic. Elton opened with "Your Song," just him and his piano, and I just remember it was pure ear candy to hear! His piano sounded so wonderful as it began to be amplified through the pavilion's sound system.
That Portland show was amazing. My buddy bught 2 front row seats and invited me. I can only look back now and think of how lucky I was to see that show. In the middle of the show, Elton stopped and came to the front of the stage and grabbed the Goodbye yellow brick record my buddy was holding and autographed it. Insane moment forever etched in my brain.
Heard this song close to a thousand times or more. each and every time I either outright ball my eyes or at least a lump in my throat. Not sure why this touches me so deeply but I'll never tire of hearing it. Elton has so many good tunes.
I remember this song when i was 5 yrs old eveyone was still alive then i miss all my family members who have passed love yas forever thanks elton for this great song
This man ruled the airwaves in the 70s when I was growing up, what an amazing talent! So many fantastic songs!!!!! Hard to pick which one, this, or Funeral for a Friend, Tiny Dancer, Rocket Man, just too damn many to pick from, he's a musical genius!❤️👍‼️
In about 1977, a tall thin kid sat bent over a standup piano in the back dining room of a summer camp in Littleton, N.H., playing and belting this tour de force out with all the passion Elton could have ever intended. Other kids crammed themselves into that tiny room just to be close to him as he poured it out all over the valley. It was magical.
Wow, how powerful is this song? Sometimes we never notice the struggle that other people are going through untilit'stoo late. I am so glad that Elton is still here, bless him ❤
Only saw him once. It was at the free concert he gave in Central Park in 1980. Just an awesome performer and great showman. One of the best concerts I've ever seen.
Thankyou for that person who 'saved his life tonight'..because this world is so much more beautiful for having Elton in it..and boy, was he a gorgeous, handsome young man..David Furnish, you are one lucky fella ❤
Elton John saved my life. I was sent to the mental hospital and rehab during my divorce. This song was playing. When I got home 3 days later, I was so glad no one was sleeping on my basement floor. 4 o'clock in the morning. Damn it! Someone saved my life that night.
Saw him in St.Louis in 1971. Could sing along with every song. Bought every album he put out up through Yellow Brick Road. After that my taste of music parted ways from his. Every once in a while he go back to the old original song style, I think to let us old hippies that he knew where he came from. How many of you know the music sound track for the movie " Friends " ? 1971.
I remember listening to Elton for the 1st time my freshman year in my girlfriends basement. We were holding hands playing Mr.John's music in 1975 that she introduced me to .I had at that time no idea how great a talent he was . Years later I saw him live twice and it hit me, in a word " amazing " the talent Elton has is beyond words and this is my favorite song with many others being a close second
Still haven't seen one comment mentioning Bernie,the first lyrics he wrote for Elton was to your song,he was seventeen at the time and Elton said he can remember how it effected him thinking no way is this kid seventeen with this kind of insight on love and life!he knew them they were meant to be!
That is a great song of elton john's then also, No sacrifice , Also , Sad songs , Don't go break in my heart, We'll, I actually 💝❤️,all of his songs.!!!!
This was the year I left school. Just the best memories of going into the big wild world of work and life. Feel privileged to have heard all these classics when they were new. Still enduring.
The first time I heard Erin’s music I was in junior high and my eldest brother brought home Madman Across the Water. I wore his record out. After that, I’d save my allowance so I could buy every album as it came out. Now he’s Sir Elton John and a legend. So many great albums and so little time. Thanks to Elton for being the soundtrack to many great memories of my life.
I am so happy for Elton making music that makes me feel good inside. Thank you Elton for all you have done and being true to yourself. You ate truly amazing. Thank you!
The genius of Elton John shines through remember back whenever I played this song it helped me when I was down about a certain woman I fell in love with with it helped me move on to a better place with a much better woman cheers Elton and Bernie simply the best.
Elton John is not underrated he a great musician and I have alot of respect for him he earned everything he ever has done I just wish I could afford his concerts so listening to his music is a great pleasure to me I really thing he is a genius there will never be another like him a great icon
I absolutely love Sir Elton John. His music really helped me in some troubling times in my life. Thank God for Elton! Thank you Elton you literally kept me alive!
This song connects many of us to so many memories of love and lost love ...Mostly the latter Right ? His voice is haunting and just so much more ..It was instant heaven the first time I heard his voice. Thanks ELTON
This song was playing when I kissed my childhood sweetheart for the first time while slow dancing. It was love at first sight. Wish I could say we married and lived happily ever after but it was not to be. Every time I hear this song the memories come flooding back and I get a little misty.
I love this song. I sent it to my daughter in her 20’s that was going through a tough time and she replied it was one of her favorite songs. This was over a year ago. Now she’s sharing her life with someone who respects and loves her and her 5 kiddos Special Man there. I love seeing her genuine smile. My happy sweet baby girl.
I saw EJ in okc Jan 2022 and I have never been so moved in my 61 years of life. Almost unexplainable. What a treasure. Thank you Mr John for sharing your life and talent with us. Xo
It’s such a treat listening to Elton John’s song’s, especially after not hearing them for some 30 years, but all the good memories came flooding back the min I heard the first song of his, and then another, and another, and believe me, you can’t stop at just one… Strangely enuf, I’m enjoying his songs & music more now than I did in my youth, especially the one’s he personally wrote bcuz the lyrics are timeless, comforting, humorous, sad, loving, charming, happy, and celebratory bcuz he communicates to his fans they’re not alone, and we’re all in this together… 🎤🎧Elton John’s songs, and music is entertainment that’s as good as it gets!!! 🎹 ❤️Thank you Sir John for givin’ it your all!❤️ YOU’RE THE BEST OF THE BEST!!! ❤️Love Always!❤️ 🙏🏻✝️🕊
My father was a DJ when I was growing up and I am grateful for it. I was made familiar with real music at a very young age. I learned a lot from the music. I made sure I raised my kids the same way.
Definitely love his passion for life .... even through his lowest point in life he was able to come back and help many save their life tonight 🙏 Extraordinary musician and gifted individual. Many Thanks from me and millions of other's that appreciate your divine talent throughout the years. Jp Val

yes love Elton's song's, snap,
Agree with other comments. There will never be anybody close to Elton John. Timeless talent!
His collaboration with Bernie Taupin and his band in the album good bye yellow brick road was fkn Stella. Who knows every word like I do?
You are obviously too young to remember Liberace!
Elton is a legend. One of the best videos I've ever seen. One of the best songs ever written. God I love him.

Bernie helped Elton write this song.
So blessed to have grown up in the 60's and 70's to experience this excellent music
Indeed
Yup Yup. Graduated HS in 76. Great time to be Alive!
This is ELTON JOHN at his best... This song is so damn good.
the drumming is great too
I totally agree
1975 proved to be a great year to cap his creative musical genius
Nigels drumming is pure genius
Damn, you Brits gave the world some of the very best music…….. thank you 😊
You know you’re a true recording artist when your music touches the soul of another human being
So true! Our beloved late mom loved this song!!!😢😢😢❤❤❤
@@Nick-ck6kg Your mom had lovely taste in music. I suspect that she also raised some amazing human beings. God bless her. Hugs.
Ditto❤
What a gem we have to have THE MAN & HIS MUSIC alive during our lifetime!
I was 32, homeless, 3 overdoses, 3 suicide attempts, given last rites
Then someone showed me love
32 years fast forward, married a beautiful son, a beautiful wife and a daughter in heaven and my business is doubling every year
4 books in the writing, one is about to be published. I took that love and serve others now in 22 countries
This song goes so deep to my heart
Such gratitude
Life is good
Music is prayer
🙏❤️🔮🦋🙏
You need to write your story
Hell yeah brother!!
You are truly legendary
Very well said sir! Music is prayer with no borders and no need for translation.

I know that pain glad to have you back 🙏🏽💜
Is your "music" still alive?
Elton would be happy to know that......
I can’t believe it’s been 48 years since I’ve first heard this song on the radio. THIS IS TRULY A TIMELESS CLSSIC SONG ❤
I was 12 omg
Perhaps the greatest song ever recorded.
Perhaps not. Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding is much better.

Isn't this song about gay sex saving him from getting married to a woman?

Totally agree ❤
It's because his songs, voice and music are filled with real raw emotion, stories and experiences, Beatles is full of pop fluff.
I Personally feel Elton is one of the most gifted person of our age. Beautiful human. Thank you Sir Elton for giving to us for decades.
Actually from Mark Douglas, Rebekah’s dad!

Everything this man sings is pure gold. My mom played his CD so much in the car, it broke. Lol Thanks Mom for getting me into great music!

This is one of the best songs 🎵 ever!! Its incredible elton john can look at words written and turn them into a song like this!! ❤️
Loved this in 1975 when I was 16 and love it now. Alot of good memories.
Saved me and I’m not a fan.
Can not imagine life without his music filling every corner of it along the way,,,from the 70's up to now( 64 y.o. here),,.. best of the best...peace,, pat.
I so miss the days when artists where allowed this kind of creative freedom by their record companies. What a golden age for music 70s-80s
The chill factors way up there with this song. Its always been my favorite elton john song.
One of my favorites.................

I saw him in 85. Best concert I've ever been to. And I've been to a lot.
What were the other two?
No one can listen to this song without being moved.
I love music .I agree 100%. There are many that move but few that hit this hard. To add adultery is a bitch
What a great song. It's never included when his hits are mentioned but it's better than most of them. Brilliant.
Do a search on his all time hits, critics got this on top.
I consider this Elton's best song, absolutely beautiful masterpiece for 50 years

You know you’re a true artist when your talent gets the soul of another human being😢😮
Out of all his songs, this is my favorite.
"Damn It, Listen to me Good"
Elton John’s genius shines though on every song he sings
Gotta give due credit to Bernie Taupin

Listened once and I was hooked on Elton...
Saw both him and Billy Joel play together in 1991. Right after 9/11. Elton didn’t get the love he so deserved!! He is a rock KING 👑 🎹 🎤
A song and a musician who connects deeply with 3 generations : boomers , gen X and millennials
I am so happy for Elton making music that makes me feel good inside. Thank you Elton for all you have done and being true to yourself. You ate truly amazing. Thank you!
It's like telling a story through song. Best book ever.

Have had the good fortune to see Elton in concert five times.. As always BRILLIANT!
Love the harmonies. The outro is so awesome.

Management . He commands two million a show , so divide that into the seating capacity ....Like a few other artist I've seen wish to see .
Save your money. Elton can't sing anymore. But he still loves the money fools throw at him. Paul McCartney is the same way.

This song was playing when I kissed my childhood sweetheart for the first time while slow dancing. It was love at first sight. Wish I could say we married and lived happily ever after but it was not to be. Every time I hear this song the memories come flooding back and I get a little misty.
Definitely a master of the most incredible music in my life...
I love this song. I sent it to my daughter in her 20’s that was going through a tough time and she replied it was one of her favorite songs. This was over a year ago. Now she’s sharing her life with someone who respects and loves her and her 5 kiddos
Special Man there. I love seeing her genuine smile. My happy sweet baby girl.
I had the wonderful opportunity to see this great artist at Madison Square Garden in concert in the early 70s and he did not disappoint.
A Masterpiece,,,,,........by a Master songwrighter,,,,,...for the ages.
One of Eltons best!
The BEST. ❤️
I saw EJ in okc Jan 2022 and I have never been so moved in my 61 years of life. Almost unexplainable. What a treasure. Thank you Mr John for sharing your life and talent with us. Xo
A masterpiece.
Wonderfully
ICONIC.SIMPLY ICONIC
It’s such a treat listening to Elton John’s song’s, especially after not hearing them for some 30 years, but all the good memories came flooding back the min I heard the first song of his, and then another, and another, and believe me, you can’t stop at just one…
Strangely enuf, I’m enjoying his songs & music more now than I did in my youth, especially the one’s he personally wrote bcuz the lyrics are timeless, comforting, humorous, sad, loving, charming, happy, and celebratory bcuz he communicates to his fans they’re not alone, and we’re all in this together…
🎤🎧Elton John’s songs, and music is entertainment that’s as
good as it gets!!! 🎹
❤️Thank you Sir John for givin’
it your all!❤️
YOU’RE THE BEST OF THE BEST!!!
❤️Love Always!❤️

My father was a DJ when I was growing up and I am grateful for it. I was made familiar with real music at a very young age. I learned a lot from the music. I made sure I raised my kids the same way.
I loved this song when i was 19
And i love it still at 67
Pure talent
Love Elton. He gifted.
