Wow his vocals are awesome on this. I dare say I prefer his vocal delivery on this live performance to the studio version. He takes this song to another level here. Brilliant.
It's a different vibe, y'know? The original was the next wave of folk. Super laid back arrangement, young elton vocals. This was him smashing it up at wembley with a 6 piece band.
Its not only you. Eltons live performances vocally and the way he plays are a million times better than studio recordings. I play piano and ive learned Eltons live versions as appose to the basic studio version its so much more expressive and full of life. He is a genius and one of a kind of sure. We are lucky to grown up to this music rather than garbage today
What i always loved about Elton in his live performances was he would always look out at the audience while playing...never even had to look at the piano keys...
@@nixon9346 hes 38 here he would have been for 30 years by this point its muscle memory for sure ive been playing 4 years and tons of stuff is muscle memory given im not as good as Elton when he goes crazy on piano but im workin on it lol
This is the first Elton concert I ever saw on Video. I was only 3 years old at the time. It changed my whole life. I fell in love with music and especially Elton's music. He's amazing and this concert is timeless. He will always be my favourite.
this is my most favorite Televised EJ concert ever,I first discovered it in our local video rental store in the summer of '87,I must have watched it 10 times in 3 days,Always loved the power of his voice in the live shows,he was such a legandary singer/performer even then 29 years ago,in his own back yard at the old Wembly Arena,damn look at all those people,I think it was close to 70,000,wish I had been there.
This is my favorite Elton concert of all time. His voice was brilliant and the set list is just about perfect. He was never this good again. Having the original three back was just the icing on the cake.
I agree with you...this is his optimal moment...I compared it with his voice from 2013 concert, sooo different... I think it's difficult to keep our voice as beautiful as we were young?
btw, I watched many covers of this song, because I like it so much. Elton John's version is the greatest, IMHO, no one ever could interpretate this song as good as him(of course, this is his song..)
I was at this concert it started at 12 noon and finished at 10pm, other acts were kool and the gang, wang chung, sector 27, big country, nik kershaw, was a great sunny day and the best concert i have ever been at.
@bandsandgroupsdotcom wow your so lucky ,I'm 43 and have seen him in concert about 14 times now ,but realy wish I had gone to this ,i saw this concert on video and was hooked on EJ from then on .All the best
Sorry, but he still can sing live... especially the slow Songs like Your Song. Hes 67 years old now and he is still playing year for year and he is still great.
for me i like his voice most in the early 2000's He gave some epic concerts in top form in this years...and completly clean without drugs like in the 1980's. Its a wonder that he's still alive after all that. i look forward to see him live this year here in germany ;)

Same
Especially in the second verse and chorus

Well after playing it for 15 years i think he learned it
@@nixon9346 Il avait la même attitude face à son public dès ses débuts ...
Muscle memory
@@nixon9346 hes 38 here he would have been for 30 years by this point its muscle memory for sure ive been playing 4 years and tons of stuff is muscle memory given im not as good as Elton when he goes crazy on piano but im workin on it lol
@@nixon9346 Also he wrote the song, so he should know it by heart
That second chorus hits all the feelz so hard when he sings “you can tell EVERYBODY….”

What a performance! I was lucky to have been at the Dublin gig 2 weeks before, to see Elton at the peak of his career, amazing night
3:11 perfection
Yep
Some 15 years before I was born. Still the best concert ever. Love you Elton
one of the best live performances
There's only a few musicians out there that can give me those chills from just a few notes ! 0:30
Wow, phenomenal. Absolutely perfect. The best Version he ever performed.
A true classic! I will always love & appreciate the music of Elton John! ❤❤❤
This performance and this band is definitely my favorite!
His voice is magical ❤️
I love Elton unconditionally.

His greatest live performance of the song!
there's only one and only elton john
A musical genius
phenomenal he is!
Elton’s 1984 Wembley concert was his equivalent of Queen’s 1986 Wembley concert
I would Dodger Stadium 1975 was Elton John's equivalent to Queen's Live Aid performance
@@gaminglegend not live aid I said Queen’s Wembley stadium 1986 concert
Your Song is my favorite song by Elton John
This is my favorite Elton concert of all time. His voice was brilliant and the set list is just about perfect. He was never this good again. Having the original three back was just the icing on the cake.
The band comprised of Dee Murray, Davey Johnstone and Nigel Olsson was the outft that he made his most iconic records with.

"yOU CAN TELL EVERBODY, THIS IS YOUR SONG.."
everyooooooooone.
Great video, thanks for posting!
Elton in his natural habitat:
How wonderful life is while ej is in the world
Agreed
SUBLIME!!
Who is the guitarist... Took that song to another level.
Davey Johnstone, who has played live with him since 1971 (except from 1978 to 1981).

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Give me one reason ,bitch mm there a big Storm coming
I'm single and Gay and happy truth no lie
I was at this concert. Elton was in top form. Shame he cannot sing live anymore
Sorry, but he still can sing live... especially the slow Songs like Your Song.
Hes 67 years old now and he is still playing year for year and he is still great.

okay, no need to be sorry. You are entitled to you opinion,
for me i like his voice most in the early 2000's
He gave some epic concerts in top form in this years...and completly clean without drugs like in the 1980's. Its a wonder that he's still alive after all that.
i look forward to see him live this year here in germany ;)
Paul McCartney and Ian Anderson ex Jethro Tull are also in the same club.
I believe his voice sounds better now than it did in the 70s.
Find me better... ill wait.
Legend says your still waiting
