Elton writes the music and Bernie writes the lyrics!
Think of Bernie as a poet. He writes poems and sends them to Elton. Then Elton puts the music to it. That’s their special sauce.
Bernie wrote these lyrics in 30 minutes, while sitting at the breakfast table. He handed them to Elton, on his way up stairs. Elton went straight to his piano and composed the music in one quick take.
And that's how is told in the movie "Rocketman".
@@oskarobit Exactly. Although many of the scenes in the movie aren't accurate, Elton has said that this scene is very accurate.
@@darrinlindsey at least more accurate that the Disney's Bohemian Rhapsody ;)
And a lot more cinematic by far.
Bernie wrote his lyrics, nobody knows how long it took. When Bernie sent his lyrics to Elton, Elton wrote a song in 30 minutes 🥴
Bernie wrote all the lyrics to Eltons Music .
Bernie Taupin wrote the lyrics to almost all of Elton John’s songs. Elton would then be given the lyrics and he would compose the music for them.
This is the first song I remember hearing from Elton John. Instant love. I still know the words by heart.
Top of the Pops was in Britain. Like Bandstand here. Or Midnight Special. I never heard of Top of the Pops either until I saw the movie about Freddie Mercury, Bohemian Rhapsody.
But oh how this beautiful song takes me back to high school.
Never herd of Rod Stewart? Wow!
It's amazing how you think that music doesn't need to be written. It's just out there somewhere and you start singing right after the lyrics is ready, and the rest is "production".
Bernie writes the lyrics, then hands it to Elton who writes the music sitting at the piano. That's how their magic works. You can't say that either music or lyrics is more important. It all comes together. When I discovered Elton John I didn't speak English, like, at all. So I didn't understand what he was singing about. And still I loved his songs.
It's such a beautiful, unselfish lyric - how wonderful life is while you're in the World. He's not saying my life is better because you're with me. He's saying my life is wonderful just knowing that you're somewhere out there in this World. 😭
This is my favorite song of his. It fits any relationship you have and is so beautifully written and sung. Elton John is such a great singer. He delivers all of his songs with such heart.
Bernie wrote the words (lyrics). Elton wrote the music. This is how they worked together to write their songs. This was Elton's first hit song. The song where most of us first heard of Elton.
Btw, there are other famous songwriting teams like this. Hal David wrote the lyrics to most of the music of Burt Bacharach.
This was his first big hit.
This is the song that got the superstardom of Elton started. It took over the radio airwaves and became a huge hit. It is my sentimentally favorite song. It reminds me of my long departed wife .if you do not know Bernie Taupin wrote all of Elton’s lyrics in the early days and for most of his songs still to this day. Bernie would write the lyrics and send it to Elton where he would sit down, imagine what the lyrics meant to him and put the music to it often in less than 30 minutes!You should react to the original studio recording because it is special!
I found out a few years later, after getting familiar with Elton's music in 1970, that I'd actually first heard him in 1969 (when I was 9). I'd been enthralled with the sounds and lyrics of a song that was playing on the radio then but I never paid attention to who it was sung by. It was not until a few years later, when a compilation album, "...To be Continued" was released that I heard it again and it was "Lady Samantha" which took me right back to 1969.
It was the first song that was my own, not influenced by anything that my siblings or parents were listening to. For that reason, it's among the best songs ever of Bernie and Elton for me.
Just to help you, Bernie wrote the lyrics then handed, posted, faxed or emails (depending on the era)to Elton who then sits at the piano and composes the music.
If he can't get a song within an hour he'll discard it and move on to the next one. "Your Song" took him within 15 minutes to write.
The producer was the late Gus Dudgeon. Production is way different now compared to back then.
Gus Dudgeon was to Elton what George Martin was to the Beatles.
No, it was not written by his "right hand"... it was co-written. Bernie Taupin, was not a "right hand". He was the lyricist and Elton was the composer.
It's strange that with his massive library of great music, his first hit was this song. It's arguably the best song Bernie and Elton ever did.
Elton John - Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding, Crocodile Rock. I've Seen The Saucers , Ticking, Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me...
I believe this was his first hit in the USA. I think I was about 18. I’m 74 now.
Yup. I think it was 1974-ish? This song, "Daniel", and "Philadelphia Freedom" came out in what seems like pretty quick succession. I was completely hooked :)
Elton writes all the music, Berney writes just the lyrics
Taupin/John are the second most successful song writing team after Lennon/McCartney of the Beatles.😮! Like the Beatles, Elton's deep album cuts rival his hit singles. Try his song called Blues For Baby And Me from the 1973 album Don't Shoot Me, I'm Only The Piano Player
another great writer/singer combo was Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman. Jim's writing was perfect for Meat Loaf's powerhouse voice, and Meat Loaf was perfect to deliver that big sound Jim wrote.
Top of the Pops was a British TV show.
The beauty of this is it could be to a lover or a child , it is open to interpretation. Bernie Taupin wrote all the lyrics. He is a Poet ,Lyricist,Painter . Elton writes the music. The artistic mind is a wonderful place. The music is quiet but lush . It cradles the words . The blend is what makes them amazing ☮️
Awesome reaction of my favorite Elton John song!!!!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I saw him twice in concert in Detroit in the 1970s. He used to wear interesting outfits and change a few times during the concert. Once he was Donald Duck. He was great LIVE.
Bernie never mentions who he wrote it about. He was only 17. Just a teenage crush.
Top of the pops was a must see every Thursday at seven o'clock dating back to 60s I watched religiously.from the Beatles to Madonna and beyond
Bernie writes the words...sends them to Elton, who THEN writes the music by how he feels the words take him forward. Bernie is NOT a musician but a poet and lyricist...meaning WORDS ONLY. Elton gets the words in front of him reads them and immediately feels a vibe about the mode and type of music he will compose for those specific words...tempo, everything. Then he hashes out the music...and has said, it usually takes him fifteen to twenty minutes to write the core skelton of any song. He said if the song isn't coming in the first 15 minutes or so, he gives up on it because longer than that feels forced and is like pulling teeth where it just doesn't come naturally. Their songwriting partnership is an odd one but has always worked.
Taupin was a writer in need of a specific singer, and Elton a singer in need of a specific songwriter. It was magic, not hyperbole
You read this IN your 1st Elton reaction , Bernie lyrics, would give them to Elton and he would write/compose the MUSIC to the songs...
My favourite Elton song is someone saved my life tonight. This was written by Bernie but it was about Elton.
GREAT REACTION TO A GREAT SONG, THANKS DREW!!!!!
Perfect Collaboration ❤❤
That the first time and first song we ever heard from him. Huge hit.
Border Song is another Elton song I think you will like. The last verse is perfect.
Check out Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - definitely one of Bernie and Elton's greatest songs.
It's always a teamwork, with each talking and working out the ideas and kinks together. They knew each other like they knew themselves.
An amazing masterpiece from Elton and Bernie, Elton's beautiful piano fits Bernie's lyrics perfectly. Lyrics are the words to the song. The composer writes the musical notes. Some people do both in which case they are referred to as the songwriter. I've loved this song since it first came out and put Elton on the map.
Do Rod Stewart’s collab with Sting and Bryan Adams… next for Elton should be Something about the Way you look tonight ❤
Top of the Pops (TOTP) is a British music chart television programme, made by the BBC and broadcast weekly between 1 January 1964 and 30 July 2006. The programme was the world's longest-running weekly music show. For most of its history, it was broadcast on Thursday evenings on BBC One. Each show consisted of performances of some of the week's best-selling popular music records, usually excluding any tracks moving down the chart, including a rundown of that week's singles chart. This was originally the Top 20, though this varied throughout the show's history. The Top 30 was used from 1969, and the Top 40 from 1984.
Elton is great live but nothing can match the magic he makes in the studio😮! You should really check out the studio version of Elton's songs before you hear the live version. Try his song from the album called Tumbleweed Connection, titled Come Down In Time and this matter will become crystal clear😊.
any song on that Album is fantastic
Bernie wrote the lyrics. Elton composed the music. They took it to the studio where the producer layed everything down in the track.
Hi, many songwriters work as a team. Usually one (Elton) writes the music and the other (Bernie) write the lyrics. Often the lyricist gets lost in the shuffle but most remain the team. Sometimes one has a complete song/lyric and the other finishes it. Sometimes they write together.
I want to hit on Rod Stewart whom you mentioned. Here’s a crossing of the streams. You earlier reviewed Superstar by Carpenters. That song peaked in the US at #2 on Billboard Hot 100. So how this matters. The song that was sitting at #1 and blocking it was Maggie Mae by Rod Stewart. So now you have your first song for Rod as you open a new rabbit hole for him. And a story with it.
Great job, keep going I’m loving your exploration of music of my time.
For Elton, try Crocodile Rock, Bennie and the Jets, PhiladelphiaFreedom for some upbeat rockin’ songs.
Joe
what a ballad...very good choice
Elton was only 20 when he wrote the melodies to their earliest collaborations. But what's even more amazing? Bernie was only 16 when he wrote the lyrics!
Rod Stewart - Maggie May
Just to let you know I'm 55 and I've never heard of that show until you just mentioned it, so you're not alone.
Bernie would write poetry and send the poems to Elton who would then come up with the music to go along with Bernie's poems.
I picked up on how he used his voice to go country for a second, one line of "you've ever seen."
An example, is the band Rush. Neil Peart was the main lyricist, but they all made the music. Also, lyricists often take what another band member, or musician wants to say; and put it in a lyrical format.
Rod Stewart... Listen to the song "Sailing"...So beautiful. ""Mandolin Wind". live 2008 unplugged with Ron Wood who was in the band FACES with Rod back in the day. Now Ron plays for the Stones.. Anyway enjoy..Peace to you✌I really enjoy your reactions
Bernie writes the words, Elton writes the music
Great review! I love your inquiry of the artist *after* you hear the song, not before. Keep it up!
Oh, and if you're on an Elton kick, PLEASE do "Tiny Dancer."
-Jonathan from Switzerland (originally a Brooklyn Boy 😎)
Top of the Pops was like Midnight Special, only in Britain. “Old Grey Whistle Stop” is the other huge British music show.
Top of the Pops was the British version of American Bandstand.
This was his first breakout hit!
Another top notch job keep up the great work. You really are one of the best out there now.
"Nothing great is done indiividually" - REN says hello :)
He became the first independrent artist EVER to have an album debut at #1 in the UK in October, bur he does not do radio-friendly, a lot of his songs are very personal.
Top of Pops is a British show.
sometimes the best poets can't play an instrument
If you read the lyrics, it sounds to me he is talking to a fan. He can't recall her eye color, and he says you can tell everybody this is your song. To me that's like when you hear a song you love on somewhere (store/radio/club) and tell your friends "that's my song!" as in you love it... If you read through the song you can tell it is impersonal and not really as romantic as it first sounds 😊
Parabéns você faz ótimos reacts
Bernie Taupin wrote the lyrics to all of his songs. They never wrote together like Lennon and McCartney. Sir Elton said that Bernie would always drop off the lyrics then he would compose the music to go with them.
👏👏👏👏👏
Now go listen to the studio version. Do not pass go, do not collect $200.
Nice reaction Man.
If ya wanna react to Elton Johns greatest song ever, please
react to "Someone saved my life tonight."
Please do the one with lyrics.
It's his best son ever, imho.
Keep up the nice work.
Yes you got it right, lyricist writes words only.
This was his first big hit in 1970. This is not necessarily to a specific person; it's just a love song. Bernie wrote it. The MUSIC was written by Elton - the words were written by Bernie - the lyrics are the words. You should really know this before you start listening to songs. The other version never went anywhere - Elton's went crazy. It was his second album but the first one, Skyline Pigeon, was only released in England. Elton wrote the music - it has nothing to do with production.
Brickyard Road - Johnny Van Zandt
Studio version is always better for first listen. Always.
The music is written by Elton. This is not a producer type work, he would sit at his piano and write it first...
This song was my entre to Elton John. Then I heard the album and I learned why people sat around in basements listening to music. Elton is a religious experience.
Loving all your reviews I've looked at so far check out, country boy style, by Big Chuk
The Greek word "lyricist" in the English language is incorrectly used to refer to the writer of a poem(poetry). A poem is incorrectly called a song in English because the song is a melody and a poem. This is where this misunderstanding comes from. A person who writes the words of a poem is a poet and not a songwriter. Bernie is a poet. A person who writes melody and music is a composer/melody writer. Elton is a composer/melody writer. A songwriter is a person who writes both together - words and a melody. A producer is a person who organizes the sale of a song. He knows what style is sold, where to find the band members, and things like that. Quincy Jones was a producer, but he was also a composer as well. This does not mean that all producers are composers.
You should listen to Selena....Disco Medley. It will knock your socks off
please react to "take me to the pilot" by Elton John
You definitely have to check out Rod Stewart.
Stay with me, I know I'm losing you, Hot Legs and many more!
Great reaction! Ellie Goulding does a fantastic cover of this song. You should check it out!
Top of the pops like American Bandstand not live
To think Bernie was 17 when he wrote Your Song.
This video shows Elton adding music to Bernie's lyrics. ruclips.net/video/fswdJilCBKM/видео.htmlsi=iWY2J19z1KqAfGrO
