Elton John - I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues
/ eltonjohn
I wasn't born at the time of this song, but I love the old times... _to good old days!_
I listened to Elton John with my best childhood friend in the 70's and it was definitely the best time ever 😊❤
Wish I could go back to thoses days.
This song came out when my then-fiance had just left on a 6-month tour of duty on the USS Ranger, which subsequently turned into about 7.5 months because of world events. It was a loooonngg wait for him to return. We've now been married 40 years in March. Time flies by but this song is timeless. Elton John is an absolute icon and a gift to music.
He is indeed that and a gift to humanity as well. 💞
God bless
NOBODY CARES!!! Some of us will never have anyone!
Beautiful story. Thanks for sharing. I've got an American soldier ive been texting and I can't wait to see him soon. Wish us luck 🙏
I joined the Army in 1983, and this song released on the night before I left. My girlfriend, now wife, was with me, and this became our wedding song, and is still our favourite
Omg that's so sweet ❤
That’s very beautiful. I how I wish I was a teenager in the 80s. Or just not this time period
Reminiscences are so essential in this fairly fruitless hopeless life
Thankyou @@alwayseverythingg
Congrats on staying together
I grew up in a very dysfunctional family. Severe childhood and generational trauma. I had a terrible relationship with my dad and still do. I’m 50 now. I grew up listening to Elton John. My dad could never show me love but one thing he gave me, was fabulous taste in music. Music has been my saviour. This is my all time favourite Elton John song. ❤️
Little gifts ❤
Music does wonders!! Hope u r ok now and know it was his dysfunction and fault.
Yes, me and my Dad totally clash, he’s not going to change, I’m done trying to change myself for him to like me, he won’t!!! He’s 84 now, just dying before my eyes, it’s sad but he’s already dead in a lot of ways.
Twinnn
Ditto
In my opinion this is one of the most perfect songs ever written. Most definitely my favourite Elton song.
I love it as well, but I must say it took me a few years to pick my top five.
I agree.
Totally agree!! 👍
The video is cool as well.
It's up there but I love Nikita the best
One of the many things I respect about Elton John is that he has never tried to hide the fact that Bernie Taupin wrote most of his best songs. Bernie is one of the very few songwriters whose name is actually known. Songwriters and actual vocalists in films are usually unknown.
Not most.....ALL of them....but just the lyrics. Elton writes the music
“Wait on me girl”
“Cry in the night if it helps”
One of my favorite songs and video❤
I was 16 when this song came out, the difficult years in my life just beginning after a dysfunctional abusive childhood. Elton John music made me happy and in many ways, helped me survive the rough years ahead. Fantastic and stellar musician who brings good info a dark and rough world.
Same
The strength and power in this song is that Boy is leaving girl for a while and instead of moaning about how tough it is to be apart, he emphasises the positive aspects and says they will be stronger if they get on with their lives during this period. They are BRAVE optimistic lyrics. We need to be given courage in our lives and this song does just that. It strengthens us and gives us the beauty of the tune as well. Bernie and Elton at their best.
How is Elton so good? I mean, God gives us all gifts, but Elton's gift changed the world.... He's just a phenom. I'm so grateful I was alive during his time and could really appreciate his music
My God this song really touched soul when I was just 10 years old and at 49 years old it still does
Same here. I listen to it often
Am gonna sing it live for the first time tomorrow (which is why I came here, I was actually curious where it was filmed)... I grew up with the same sentiment & have been looking forward to singing it for years, a stunning song & generational
Me too!❤
@@jamesdavidson7335 Good luck brother!
Same🤯👍
Listening April 2024 on my 69th birthday, remembering the times I listened to this song when my husband and I were stationed on opposite sides of the planet when we were both in the Navy. Between this song and "Right Here Waiting" we survived the deployments and separations. My eternal thanks to their creators.
Parabéns pela sua estrada linda, pelo amor, pela vida!! Felicidades pelo aniversário!!!
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday! Your post put a smile on my face.
Feliz aniversário. Belas as suas palavras.
Happy Belated Birthday
Almost 40 years and this song will NEVER get old.. absolutely timeless!
Wow, Ed 40 yrs.
Where has the time gone?
Dont forget his co song writer Bernie Taupin.!!
Absolutely a timeless masterpiece!
Here with 19 years old enjoying masterpieces like this
@@trevorperry7332 he and Bernie are like ying and yang
Makes me remember my husband going off to basic training and leaving our daughter and me behind for 3 months. I sang this song a lot while he was gone, and cried a lot too. 35 years on and it can still make me cry.
So touchy miss... hope u are happy now
Yes I am airforce
I really feel that bro
Man. That's beautiful. I love hearing stories of military families that made it work out. They always fill me with such hope.
Awe.
Elton was my dads favorite artist. My dad passed away in 2017 whenever I hear Elton’s voice I remember my dad. RIP.
Elton is amazing and Rip to your dad.
James Taylor used to be my favourite can't listen to him anymore as he was played at my uncles funeral
Sorry to hear. My dad passed 7 years ago. At least they left us with good music to listen to.
Sorry for your loss! When my Mom passed, Barry White music songs came to my mind. I don't know why.
She was energetic and liked music.
Rest In Heaven to your Dad. My Dad also passed away in 2017. I Cried Nights. Wish I had a chance to hang out with him. Wish just one time.
This is one of the best songs by Elton John👏🔝This song is beautiful, deep, romantic and unforgettable.👏👏👏I really love this wonderful song 👏🥰
Man alive this song gets to you! Between "I simply love you more than life itself" and the end...Wow. Just wow..Thank you Sir Elton John!!
+Mary Aylward Yep, romantic ending right there. Kinda chokes you up.
thanks for the Sir part, isn't he awesome, beyond belief, rightly Knighted
Rosemary Ochoa He's a musical genius, but his politics suck. Stick to singing EJ.
Elton john is by far one of the greatest musicians of all time
Unparalleled genius. That's it!
Ye along with Michael Jackson and queen
By farrrr
Prince
i so agree man-
This song has no chance of diminishing. Im only 25 and the second I heard this song it was like a hole was filled in my heart.
I heard the song for the first time before I had to join the army. I was a paratrooper and often in battles. Elton John's music from the 80s helped me to survive.
RUclips's great, I went from Slipknot to My Chemical Romance to Elton John and loved every song along the way. Music is magical and life's too short to not branch out into tons of genres. 🌈
😂 'chemical romance'❤
Eltons best song. His stirring voice, upbeat tune, great backup vocals, and great lyrics.
almost 4 decades and this song still rolling like thunder.❤😊.
Great comment
I just lost my mom 4 days ago and this song is so relatable, in some ways. She loved Elton and he can express emotions like no one else.
:( sorry to hear that.
Should anyone be wondering, that's Stevie Wonder on harmonica. Beautiful song!
No. Tu hermana
I was. Thanks
And he did it in one take
Get out of town! Never knew that. Thanks for that tidbit of trivia 😊
And, Elton sang and played the piano on a cover of Stevie's 1970 song Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I’m Yours)
"Wait on me girl, cry in the night if it helps. But more than ever, I simply love you, more than I love life itself." This is just beautiful.
I read years later that Bernie Taupin wasn't happy with those lyrics he wrote. He thought it was irresponsible. I can see his point, but most people who love the song, love that line.
Joli Ayala Yes-so beautiful. I'm glad their are people who still appreciate this music
It's kinda amazing how Bernie Taupin could so easily come up with timeless lyrics --- like JD Souther for the Eagles
Oi
They don't write 'em like this anymore, for sure!
Real fact.
Stevie Wonder came to the studio and did the harmonica in this song in one try....that's it...one time and ABSOLUTELY killed it.🤯😆
That's why he's named Stevie Wonder.
He's also on the Eurhythmics "Must Be An Angel".
I'm surprised.
- No one
@@FranSanTeeth90 Stevie's harmonica in that song is superb
Lies
For my ex-wife who is gone, but not forgotten.
this was our song and we were untouchable.
I'm brazilian. My native language is Portuguese. This song was one of the reasons to learn English. I was very young and...I was caught in a trap: it was love at "first hear" that lasts to this day. Just love this song🥰🥰
Music truly crosses all national boundaries, so glad to hear about your experience!
Mesmo tendo 22 anos, eu também simplesmente amo o Elton! 🥺🥰🥰
Letra boa demais, né?!
Love Brazilian peoplev
@@principevanessa9974 Amazing people with an amazing musical culture it would seem.
Stevie Wonder on that harmonica.......breathtaking, brings a tear...!!
He’s the best
I never knew that
Dang !! Me either!! Makes me like even more !!
Really?! No wonder why I love that part of the song. I don’t like the sound of harmonicas but for some reason this was the only exception, probably that’s why!
“Live for each second without hesitation.”
Words to live by.
In my own opinion Sir Elton John is one of the greatest performers ever ... fullstop.
In my humble opinion...Elton's very best song NOT included within his "golden period" of 1971-1975. The piano, his vocal and a tight arrangement all make this a memorable tune for me. Cheers!
+usmcfutball i was going to ask if people thought this was on par with his earlier stuff. i always thought it was a real solid track.
Elton John & Bernie Taupin = One of the greatest writing teams ever!
hes a good singer
I'd agree with you there. A definite classic, not just of Elton John's.
usmcfutball , this reminds me when i went to MCRD Oceanside, Ca. 1990 but learned quickly to fuck my feelings. Oooh Raww!!!!
Beautiful song I dedicate this to my Dad who sadly passed away in June "I simply love you more than I love life itself" RIP Daddy XxX
sorry for your loss, one of the best songs to dedicate
I am very sorry for your loss.
My condolences. 😞😞😞
One of the lines of this song is "Rollin like thundah under the covers"
I had heard it on a show , and forgot who sung it !!!!!!!!!!
I love my Metal, but When Elton John comes on, Everything else stops.
SAME HERE, ENJOY FRIEND,OK?
Fellow metal head who listens to Elton John as well
*WHAT ABOUT QUEEN!!!!!!!!*
@@brittanibland6249 Queen, best band ever IMO. But all respect to Elton. Amazing artist.
Good. Good
I'm here because when I was maybe 5 or 6 playing this on my mom's record player wrapped up in a blanket on her porch while it was raining... It gave me comfort. This song has carried me through different situations throughout my 37 years....
Can't believe this amazing man is still alive. This is a real musician who made classic hits. Long live Elton.
Lina Ali for some resone most of the good musicans die young
aint that the truth baby,im still way bad fucked up over Stevie Ray Vaughan,fuck i miss that guy.😞
aint that the truth baby,im still way bad fucked up over Stevie Ray Vaughan,fuck i miss that guy.😞
He the man
Life on the road regardless of whether they overindulge is tough so I'm told. I wish Elton who did a long, long, longer life. Never sleeping in your own bed takes years off. They do it to sell records, to build a career and to become pop stars. Use to be you toured to sell records. Class dismissed. Smiley Face. This song reintroduced me to Elton's greatness.
Last year, I heard he was coming to Chicago. I couldn’t find no one to go with me. So didn’t get tickets. But the day of... I said let me do this for myself. I drove to downtown Chicago and a young man was selling his ticket for 40 bucks. I got it, ran inside and this song was playing as I found my seat. THE BEST PERFORMANCE I WITNESS IN MY LIFE. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Next ask me lol
GREAT SONG AND TİMELESS
I am from Chicago but I saw him in California and yes best concert I was ever had sang and was just totally emotionally happy, I was 20 years old lol I’m now 60 and still love hearing him
Awesome :)
@@elipearl1 amazing story!!
This classic song is made even more excellent by Stevie Wonder on the harmonica. Amazing.
Wonder could he see wat he was at!
kkkkk
Some people don't know but I thought it was blindly obvious
Man, there are a lot of great Elton John songs, but this one is is my favorite. It's just basically a piano and a voice. And the video is outstanding.
I think we are always in a state of remembering our youth and being overwhelmed with happiness from the memories.
true

Who is listening to this legend? vocals are out of this world, timeless masterpiece ❤.
Got to see Elton John in concert just last week and man even at 70+ he rocks the stadium. Probably my favorite live show I've ever seen! God Bless Elton John!
I am planning to go see him with my fiance in a couple weeks! Can't wait!
I would've loved that!
Nice to see he still has it. I was lucky to have sat side of stage at his Adelaide leg of the Piano men tour with Billy (late 90s from memory), they were both fantastic, but totally chalk and cheese people I must say. Elton takes his house with him on tour, his trailer was like a home (my partner got his table flower arrangement which was, well, it was bloody huge)... Billy's by complete contrast, well, I would question he spent more than a few moments in there lol
I saw him about a decade ago or so with Billy Joel. Both of them put on a hell of a show!
¡¡¡Muchísimas Felicidades, Elton!!! 🎉🎉🎤🎤🎹🎹🎶🎶¡¡¡Gracias por tanta música maravillosa!!! Desde Argentina!
The lyrics and voice of Elton is just beautiful, but that harmonica playing from Stevie....that's that SAUCE!
They don't make music like this anymore...clearly a masterpiece by Mr. Elton John
Your a 100% right all music today is junk no more classics being made
Now Sir Elton John ❤
@Joseph todays music is absolutely rubbish mate dont listen to it its that bad❤
I stopped listening to most music made after 2000 , I keep an ear out for music somewhat but I mostly listen to the music that I grew up with and I get to go back in time every time I hear those awesome tunes .
YES ... BUT THERE ARE STILL SOME GREATS@@jim944
One of Elton's best in my opinion, how does he make so many meaningful songs sound happy enough to dance to and sing to? I fudge up the words all the time but my heart feels full ❤️❤️❤️
With the help Bernie Taupin!
Exactly
I guess Elton is gifted
Living legend icon
This song is one of my favorites from Elton. The 80s were such a magical time to grow up. I was 10 in 1983, and I love this song just as much now as I did when it was first released.
I feel the same way! This is my fav Elton song!
I was -10 and I love this song haha
73..not 83. That's ok. Boy George had the 80"s. Elton John and kikide did don't go breaking my heart in the 80 early 80s if not late 70,s.
A magnificent song from his magnificent comeback album
@@maehake2791 1976
Ive loved this song since i was about 7 or 8 years old. #classic #iLove80sMusic
##FREE WORLD BOSS🤙🤙
My favourite elton john song
I was 3 or 4 years old. Remember it vividly from the car seat.
It’s the first song I remember giving me that feeling
In 1987 I was 17. Fell in love with a Marine. Whenever I hear this I'm 17 again in study hall missing him looking out the window, feeling sorry for myself.
I'm in...
why
I was born in 1987. ..but I love this song so much!
This sounds exactly like me! Except it was 86 and I was 16. :)
Same! But it was 1984 for me.
I have admired Elton John throughout the whole of his career and loved every song he has played and sung especially this song and will have this played when I leave this earth .
This song, helped me through a very hard break up, lots of tears but also smiles after time. I love all Elton John's songs
Same thing happened to me, one year together and engaged. Than after we are broke up she is talking to a new guy. But Eltons Music has made it easier to get through.
Same. A teenage breakup….drama, drama, drama. Still one of my favorite EJ songs.
Same here. Got me through a tough patch. Still my favorite song.
This is a timeless masterpiece! Has Elton ever done a bad song -no period. Cause he’s a legend. That catchy melody and Stevies harmonica. What a tune 🎶🎶🎶 love Elton 💕
I will never get tired of hearing this song. The talent it takes to create a song like this is incredible
I heard this song when it first came out. The first time the video aired on MTV, when it was MTV. I fell in love with the song and the words. The video was so compelling and I knew exactly how the guy felt when he was in boot camp and layed down in the street in the pouring rain. I Sir Elton John, the man has lived and I believe by the music he writes, he has loved and lost. What a great song. It will ever remain in my top 3.
I imagine it will only be fitting to build a huge statue in this mans image and honour when he passes away. One of a kind.
I wish to not come across as cheesy, but why not now? We do these things posthumously too often. By the way, I think Elton John is a legend!
In Watford...
Will that statue be bald?...Or shall we carry on the lie?
Justaperson The song is a classic my friend
In 83 I was a teenager so intense that still hurts... Listening this beautiful song in those days was like burning myself orbiting the sun... Today's just listening again is more like some drops getting out of my eyes trying to feel back in my autumn those wonderful times of a January man
I think i was there..just like youx
Beautiful description ❤
Linda reflexão
This man is a time machine... Every generation he continues to produce amazing, everlasting hits...Neither time or space confines his amazing talents..
Ausome!!!!
Maybe they should call him the time machine man instead of the rocketman
I was born in the wrong era. Only 16 and came across this song not too long ago. Very quickly became a favourite. If only I was older to get the chance to see elton live. What an experience that must be.
The 80s and 90s were better time to be alive for so many reasons.
What a special song this is.
One of my all time favourite songs. Was never a fan in my younger years but what a song and I now realise how talented Elton is
Decades of amazing music. What a great time to grow up- the 70s and 80s. Elton is a legend. Going to his farewell tour tomorrow night!
We saw him March 30th in St Louis Mo. He was absolutely phenomenal!
I'm jealous!! Was it phenomenal?
I saw him when I was 16 years old in Nashville. My first concert. Saw him many many times after that. I thought Elton and Bernie were songwriting geniuses than and still do.
I went to his so called "farewell tour" too - in 1984😂
Sim Lynn essa música é muito linda apesar de eu ser dá Amazônia
As a young, 16 year old Irish lad ( who had only come to London a week earlier ) I stood by the wall of Crofton park railway station watching this video being made.
Where have all the years gone?
That is SO COOL!
Incredible.. that must be an amazing memory
OHHH.... FAR... SO FAR...
Omg so cool!
Lee its crazy the memories of times gone by, we dont appreciate life enough
This is mine and hubby’s song, we met in Germany, he was RAF, it’s our 30th wedding anniversary on 21st July and this is still our song in 2020 😍
Happy anniversary
Happy late anniversary
Happy belated Anniversary! :)
Cute🥰🥰
31 tomorrow, I just caught this comment on July 20 2021 Congrats
Just in case you didn't realize how amazing this song was, that's Stevie Wonder on the harmonica. Two of the greatest artists of their generation together.
Wow I never knew that !
Kane Burgoyne
Stevie also plays on Eurythmics
There must be an Angel
Abe Lincoln
L❤ve this fact to the max...❤💚💜💙💛
Stevie Wonder has featured harmonica playing on many pop artists songs
It doesn't look like Stevie Wonder sat on top of piano playing Harmonica ;)
Iconic song. Never gets old. Harmonica solo Stevie Wonder. Doesn't get better than that.
Really is that stevie wonder playing harmonica? Makes it even better
Yes, I still have all of Elton's albums. Have most of Stevie's also.
I was blown away the harmonica solo. What an amazing surprise to find that STEVIE WONDER was playing!
Realmente é lindíssima, para quem tem um Amor eterno, mesmo que esteja no. Céu, ouvindo está canção dá pra sentir que valeu a pena amar. Só me resta a saudade.Que Deus a tenha.
I used to rock my babies to sleep singing this song. They are 16 and 13, and still absolutely love this song. One of my all-time favorites!
I'm singing and rocking my 6m old son to it now
@@nikkibb1998 Damn that's crazy!
My 6 week old starts to get drowsy within seconds of it coming on. I used to play it when I was pregnant with him x
This is his best song, my opinion... I cry when I hear this. Just lost my young husband.😢
Awe so sorry 🇮🇪🇮🇪
Very sorry
Last sentence wasn’t really necessary, was it?
@@mattboniface598 Your comment wasn't necessary either.
😢
My absolute favorite Elton John song of all time 💗
Hi Laura,have good TIMES with this song from Elton...Mauser HH...
Sim vdd❤
Totally.
Elton has so many amazing songs, but there’s something about this one that I can’t stop listening to it time after time.…
I'm here again because this song randomly pops into my head and I start singing along to the lyrics. Sir Elton John will always be a legend in my eyes, ears and heart.
Literally the same way I come back to this song about monthly
Lol Family Guy bought me here 😂😂😂
Some of the lyrics have been in my head on a daily basis for years now. I only wish I'd found them sooner. "Don't wish it away." Hindsight IS 20/20.
Elton John, one of the great artists of my lifetime, and I've lived a long time.
"Time on my hands" that part of the song, gives me goosebumps every time.
For mine, this is Elton John's best song.......and that's saying something, as we know his catalogue is simply phenomenal!
This is one of those songs that you can't help singing along with.
JW Romig
Such a hauntingly beautiful song! And it’s so timeless that his songs are continuing to be remixed in 2022. Coco heart isn’t as flash as the OG Rocket Man but it does prove that Elton will never go out of style.
Good song always replay
One of the greatest songs ever written period.
It was songs like this that helped bring down the Iron Curtain. If one had watched this video in 1983/4, one would have surely felt that the Iron Curtain countries' days were numbered. How could it have been otherwise?
Lee Jenkins yes it is one of the best song ever written love it
Lee Jenkins as much as I love Elton I wouldn't go that far Dude.
@@marksapienza3832 technically elton didnt write this song
Elton has a powerful voice and it's on display here.
For me, this is Elton's best song.
Absolutely
Without a doubt 👍
Same my brother
Absolutely
Someone saved my life.Is Favorite one.This was my breakup song .Heartbreaking but life lessons. Lol
Elton's a genius on piano. No question.
Still remember this song being on the radio in 1983 --- great memories of my 80's youth!
Not to mention, it was on MTV
Mein Sohn spielte dieses Lied bei seiner musikalischen Abschlussprüfung für mich, der dieses Lied so liebt. Danke elton für das Lied! ❤❤❤
I'm 38 years old, and I am just now discovering my love of Elton John
Congrats
Super hope u av Goodbye Yellow Brick Road 👍👍👍👍
The love will continue to grow. What an amazing talent 👌
It's never too late!
Perfect
I had forgotten just how much I love this song. Beautiful.
I can’t believe this is 40 years old. I was just a teenager when it came out. Where did time go 😞
Exactly. where did it go?
Yeah
I have an older brother named Daniel and even though he's still alive, I cry everytime I hear the song. We don't live in the same country. When I hear the part" Oh I miss Daniel, I miss him so much" it really hits hard
call him then! what ya waiting for?
He always seemed to surround himself with excellent musicians. This is probably my favorite Elton John song. Reminds me of when I had to leave my fiancé to go to boot camp. But unlike the song, my gal stayed faithful. 44 years later, here we are.
The righteous brothers
but the song lyrics are not about unfaithfulness
YES YES YES
andy wilson the girl in the music video, not the song itself
❤❤❤❤❤
Remembering loved ones that passed. This song always makes me cry
Same here
Same 😢
Me too.
Ditto 🌹
His songs are truly timeless. Love Sir Elton John!
The true reason its called to blues is because anyone who has ever loved can relate to the words of this genius. It truly is better to have loved and lost but its never better to except a broken heart and not do anything. Elton is truly a good man for writing this and someone saved my life tonight
I can listen to this song over and over again and never get tired of it. What a masterpiece
been doing exactly that
Exactly ❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of my absolute favorite songs. And my favorite bands is Tool.
When this first came out in 1983 I was with a group of girlfriends, 19 years old and clubbing as everybody did back then. A cute guy asked me to dance to this song and I accepted. We married in 1984 and still happily married! When I met him he was in pilot training in the USAF and I wasn’t at all familiar with anyone in the military so my life was going to change drastically, but I’ve loved every bit of it.
This song was just so perfect for us at that time. Somehow over the years I forgot about this song until recently. Loving it again.
Beautiful story....🥰

It was in the movie 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Absolutely love it, happy memories x
What a Fantastic Songwriter ELTON JOHN IS This Song Makes Me Think of All The Wonderful Years I HAVE Shared With My Husband Keith ❤❤❤❤❤
Christopher Matthew Landry - I listened to this song a million times over when we broke up.... your wonderful mother introduced it to me and i fell in love with it like I fell in love with you - hard and fast - and now its one of my all time favorites, to listen to it always brings back fond memories of our time together - and it broke my heart when you left this world so young, and without me ever being able to tell you how I really felt... lesson learned....your son is the spitting image of you, such a handsome young man, you would be so so proud....i know you watch over us all...may you rest in peace, and ill see you on the other side...
Truly touching. Bless you.
Gosh damn what a song. What a freakin song. Good lord it speaks to me so loud, deafening
Same!

+Luis Naranjo of course, because it´s Stevie !!!
+princessfam Ty Did Not Kno ! :0
Oh wow I had no idea that was Stevie!!! I actually had to look that one up to see if it was true and it is!! Thank you!! 🤗
+Luis Naranjo Absolutely!
+operagirl81 My pleasure! I love Stevie...an appearing on a song with Elton John...pure brilliance!
The Too Low For Zero album has special meaning for Elton, as it reunited him with Taupin and is also where he met his first spouse, Renate Blauel, who was an engineer on the sessions. Elton cites this song as his favorite from the set, telling Rolling Stone, "It's just a great song to sing. It's timeless."
I’ve been listening to this song since I was four and almost thirteen years later this song still tears me up. I can listen to every single live rendition of this and not tear up and I listen to the original version and it tears me up.
Elton John gave me a childhood.
