    Elton John is a very compassionate human being and a Class Act. I saw him perform at Washington State university in Pullman WA a few years ago and he played for almost 3 hours straight with no break. His concerts are awesome.

  • @AndyisStinky

    I wonder what he would bring the the table if there wasnt an audience and he was solely playing for himself on stage; how differently he would express himself through his music. He is just one talented guy and a great entertainer.

    I don't know how it's even possible, but soft rock music can make me kinda nostalgic for a world I've never been and never seen. It calms down and gives a feeling of infinity of time as if our life is not so short at all. It gives me meaning and desire to keep living through this difficult time

    This was Nigel Olsson’s first concert back with the band since 1984 when he and Dee Murray were sacked. Davey Johnstone had been trying to get him and Dee back for years, about 12 years, until Dee sadly died. It was during this song that Elton is quoted as saying he realised how much he missed Nigel Olsson and decided, “its time we brought Nigel back”.

    The ether of brilliance and freedom that fills the upper regions of space flows freely from a liberated heart and razor-sharp mind. Elton creates music perfection as easily as most men breathe.

    The ether of brilliance and freedom that fills the upper regions of space, though unseen, is as plain as the sun in the summer sky, flowing freely from a liberated heart and a razor sharp mind. Beautifully expressive, Elton creates great music as effortlessly as most people breathe, providing a detour from the mediocre and the mundane.

    She packed my bags last night, preflight
    Zero hour, nine a.m.
    And I'm gonna be high
    As a kite by then
    I miss the earth so much
    I miss my wife
    It's lonely out in space
    On such a timeless flight
    And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
    'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
    I'm not the man they think I am at home
    Oh, no no no
    I'm a rocket man
    Rocket man
    Burnin' out this fuse
    Up here alone
    Mars ain't the kind of place
    To raise your kids
    In fact, it's cold as hell
    And there's no one there to raise them
    If you did
    And all this science
    I don't understand
    It's just my job
    Five days a week
    A rocket man
    Rocket Man
    And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
    'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
    I'm not the man they think I am at home
    Ah, no no no
    And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
    'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
    I'm not the man they think I am at home
    Ah, no no no...
    I'm a rocket man
    Rocket man
    Burnin' out this fuse
    Up here alone
    And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
    And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
    And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
    Long, long, time
    Long, long, time
    Ah, no, no, no...
    Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...
