This sad song brings back my painful memory of being traumatized in my past. Unfortunately, with no accountability for justice to be done, I feel "All hope is gone." That is, after 27 years "every little bit of hope is gone" so I accept it sadly that Elton John's lyrics have a way of confirming to me that "sad songs say so much."
I remember i blasted track the day after my Dad passed away last year a week before my Birthday. Like i said Elton has the ability to make you smile and cry at the same time.....THANK YOU SIR ELTON JOHN😊❤/💔😢
"When all hopes are gone" That's how exactly how i feel right now, so so low and so sad, not just because everything is going so wrong but also because a lot of it was my own fault, but I didn't mean to, i promise. Well, this song speaks so much truth to me at this very moment. Cheers Elton.
The lyrics were written first by Bernie Taupin, then given to Elton who then composed the music. That was the way they always worked from the very beginning of their collaboration.
@@bruced.campbell4498 Thank you for that. It is enlightening and I did not know it, but according to Wikipedia: "Bernard John Taupin (born 22 May 1950) is an English lyricist, poet, and singer. He is best known for his long-term collaboration with Elton John, having written the lyrics for most of John's songs."
A great Elton John composition that speaks to me ... really speaks to me ... been a musician for 58 of my 70 years ... music is a TimeMachine (the band/group name I have worked under for a couple of decades now)!
This song brings me back to a time before music was segregated. If it was a good song it got played on every station because it was good music. I miss those days
Ok I'm going to call a spade a spade😆 pun spur of the moment. You're right brother. We both have seen better days. Today as a matter of fact I saw a funny video that used a short bit from the Cosby show to bring the laughs. Remember those days when men and women were... Men and women who weren't confused about it at all... I don't think I'm going to shock anyone's senses by saying that the... Mmm group most responsible for the decay and debasement of ALL American youth and culture. black and white red and yellow all perverted and undermined by the... Merchants of sin 🔯
"If someone else is suf... er..ing ENough to write it down" gives me goosebumps. Great piece of lyrics with a great musical beat....BAM a hit to behold.
Music like this gets us thru those moments and when we hear a song it takes us to a moment in life that were not suppose to forget whether it hurts or feels good
I luv all his songs. Thank you for sharing. Yes, I agree,sometimes, to take the pain and the loneliness in life, nice,beautiful songs as this, can help us lift our spirits and it can make our days. Thats what Im doing normally, to hear music.
NOW MORE THAN EVER I FEEL RELIEF WHEN I LISTEN TO THIS SONG MY EX WIFE PASSED AWAY JUST TWO WEEKS AGO BY HANDS OF HER HUSBAND LEAVING MY CHILDREN WITHOUT THEIR MOTHER SO SAD THANKS FOR THE LYRICS AND THE PICTURES SPECIALLY THE ONE ON MINUTE 2:22 THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
He'll be remembered in history for his musical brilliance not his personal life that I don't even care about or agree with. You don't have to agree with someone's personal choices to appreciate their artistry! Why does everyone think that you should?
I like the music. It's happy music and very powerful. For me, though, I don't listen to sad songs when I feel flat. That just sends me deeper into darkness. I listen to songs with words of hope and joy, as well as beautiful happy music. That lifts me up big time.
It's the definition of ART - taking intangible emotion that we each experience is an intensely personal way and presents it in a way that is universally shared and understood and many different people react by saying "YES! He (or she) is describing exactly the way I feel!". Think of how personal our individual experiences of our emotions are - most of us wouldn't be able to describe them in a way that so many others can relate to. When someone has the ability to relate to your innermost feelings like that - that is an ARTIST creating ART.
How did John do it? He created a song that makes me smile with joy. But at the same time a song that makes me cry tears of sadness😊/😭❤/💔at the same time....
Sharon Ross I had two 8 tracks tapes. My mom got me an 8 track player from Sears. She got me two 8 track cassettes. One was Boz Skaggs and the other was Bill Joel. I wore both out. I will always dig both. I know exactly what you mean.

Same. It’s why I shun all men. N I don’t even try to make new friends. Jesus is my only friend. It’s lonely but peaceful. ☺️
Anyone still enjoying this in 2024?
@dustinmatthews387: YESSS! I am 🖐💕
Immer wieder
Yes gay men
Of course.
Going through alot of depressions, this song is really cool to listen to. 🙏🙏
"When all hope is gone, you know sad song's say so much" That is so true! Sad song's always help me out.

Eight years later , hoping life is finding you in a much better place Cheers
@@jamesgentry4556 me too
I hope things are going far better or have changed into something good
I hope you all are better now, good luck
Seek to God, be light
So,I admire your honnesty to recognize it was your own fault,that's mean to me you was on the right track bro!
what awesome lyrics. so much meaning in his words....this guy and his writing partner deserve every praise
I heard Elton John say that it took Him all of 15 minutes to write this song and the music to it. Talk about a gift of talent. Beautiful song , to Me.
The original idea and basic melody might have taken 15 minutes but the final product took at least a few weeks, I can guarantee it.
Bobby Hutchinson you are RIGHT brother
Apparently it was written about his hamster# devasted lol

When were happy we love the song! When were sad we hear the lyrics!
So true
Absolutely
Felt that
Just left a funeral for a very dear friend. This post says exactly how I feel at this time. Thank you.
This song brings me back to a time before music was segregated. If it was a good song it got played on every station because it was good music. I miss those days
Amen to that my friend!

Everything in our society is meant to divide and segregate all of us. Music, fashion, sports, politics, it’s sad.

Back when songs on the radio actually SAID something!
October 2020 and this music still makes me vibrate. So many memories from the past and so much strength to carry on through this Covid-19 times.

What a great song I even shared it with my sister and brother in law 🎵
80's was great and such wonderful memories.... some good & some bad but would not change a thing. Yes, great to hear a thankful heart!

How did John do it? He created a song that makes me smile with joy. But at the same time a song that makes me cry tears of sadness😊/😭❤/💔at the same time....
Good song but I never realized how 80's-out it was until I listened to it on headphones lol.
music isla a universal idiom and this is beautiful
Gotta love Elton..I love this song...x
This song bring me back to my childhood.in a time when i was very and really happy.
I am happy just now,but not like that time.
Love it !!!!!!!! Straight to the heart !!!!
Elton John - lyrical/musical genius
The lyrical genius is Bernie Taupin. The musical genius is Sir Elton John. And it's been so for 50 years.
I believe it is, 'When every little bit of hope is gone', and not, 'When all the little bit of hope is gone'.
,
You're right, thank you for the correction
How i feel right now...turn them on....turn on them sad songs....
Old forgot this!! It’s perfect!
This is so true...
-Reminds u of that one person who can't be yours-
I love music!
Kick inside is in the line
That finally get's to you
And it feel's so good to hurt so bad
And suffer just enough to sing the blue's.
♥~Elton John~♥
Elton john can still rock. And thanks for the good music

This song makes so much sense.
Sad songs they say ... much !
If it were not for music, I would be dead!
I totally agree with me. Music is my salvation on Earth.
what will happen when the music dies though ?
Thomas Kopv, it never will.
youre right :) .... but it seems to me that "real" music is slowly fading :/
i know youre right but i just wish i could enjoy nowadays music like i enjoy these classics :(
Awesome!!
Elton at his best !.
Love him,his songs will never be outdated as well as Billy Joel,both great!!
Sharon Ross I had two 8 tracks tapes. My mom got me an 8 track player from Sears. She got me two 8 track cassettes. One was Boz Skaggs and the other was Bill Joel. I wore both out. I will always dig both. I know exactly what you mean.
