Elton John......musical genius. Have loved him since I was 14. Now I am 63 and love him more than ever. Saw him in Charlotte NC in 1975 for 9.50. There are no words. Love you Elton!!!!;;+
Lucky. I live a couple hours outside of Charlotte, I would’ve loved to see him in his prime. I’m 27 and I even miss the way things were 20 years ago. I’m in the wrong generation I hate it
I have a feeling John had those certain "ideations" MANY, MANY times in the hardest years of his life. Sing on, John, because my tears never stop rolling when you do with songs like this. It NEEDS to come out. Thanks for providing a neutral, even sympathetic, medium for me to do as such. Thanks for everything, John. Take care, and play and sing on, even if the hour is nigh.
I just lost my husband and brother in 2023. This song reminds me of roller skating with my baby bro and when I turned 13 I met my soul mate.. life will never be the same. Dear God help us heal we need you more than ever... Amen
Oh, I know this pain. 2018. Gone in 4 months to gastric cancer which is a very insidious cancer. Married 50 years. I lost my best friend and soulmate. Now growing old alone. I see 80 year old couples holding hands still and I go home and sob.
When a song can bring back good and bad memories that is how you know it is an amazing song..... (Just an opinion from a king who rules over nothing more than his own bodily functions👍)
@@MikeySkywalker Well.... I mean as far as the bathroom is concerned.... I have as much control as possible over those "bodily functions" until I need a diaper I'm ruling over that kingdom! 😀🌽🦆🤘
Please play this song at my funeral. I see Stevie up there in the suggestions list as well, Mack. Yeah, you can throw them in as well. A tribute to an old friend, in Bowling Green, OH.
Glad it touched you too...in a good way. I just heard it for the 347th time and it's been a year or 2 but I still shed a few. Means you have a heart! ❤
song has that do-wop, 50's feel. John is brilliant, his music is SO powerful and sad, and this song speaks to me, SADLY in a painful way. When old friends no longer......old female friend recently blocked me. But I still hold out HOPE that one day I will see her at least one time to show her how I have changed, and tell her also I am sorry for all the evils and faults that I perpetuated during living together for several months, rooms across. She has a powerful life story and is intense in personality just as I am, and I never got enough time to show her this to a greater extent. Yes, addiction is what I am partially speaking of, but I wanted to show her that there is indeed that other good side to me. Such reunions, despite what some addicts might claim, toxic people changing and being appreciated by old friends while in addiction. If both in recovery, it is somewhat uncommon, but it DOES happen, and when it does, it is a beautiful thing to see. When I hear addicts say they are permanently cutting out "toxic old friends," I understand it to a point but it does NOT apply to every addict, and if one ever tells you how YOU SHOULD be reacting to ALL your old friends, regardless of if they TOO are at your LEVEL, yes, level, recovery is ongoing, lifelong (heh......fails to take into account the harm reduction or ANY other approach than abstinence for life, despite emerging research on DEGREES of addiction) these LEVELS exist, degrees, whatever. Just....really busted up right now, because it comes on the heels of TWO very traumatic events for me last year, and a possible diagnosis NOW of PTSD. After going on two DECADES of misery. Yeah, this song hits. So badly I am trying to AVOID IT right now. Only came back because it is in my head and wanted to view the comments. I love the song, but it hurts so badly to even listen to it right now. Because the man at that piano should be me. I could say something else, but it would NOT be YT Comm. appropriate. PAIN. For all her blessings, YEAH, life is an expletive B----H. God Bless you, John. If you don't believe in Him, may fortune and blessings and the BEST shine upon you. Thank you for empowering SO MANY lives, bringing empathy and love, sympathy to so many of US in pain.
dont get me wrong, I love this song, its been in my head for 4 days now. I purposely searched out a video with the lyrics, hoping to actually figure out why they call it the blues. Did I miss something, because as far as I can tell, he never says. lol
As i said before. 2020 was a traumatic time for all of us. But i played this song out to the point when i started crying like peter griffin in that family guy episode.....

Tremendous.
@@Jr1188-w5r I take it you mean Ray Cooper. Awesome percussionist.

For me maybe one of his Absolute best and most inspired and inspiring tunes. Optimistic, spiritual and so intense Song...Simply fantastic

Loss, it's so painful grief. I know. Please take care of you
I'm so sorry. I truly know what your feeling.
I love this song..in many ways these lyrics fill all my emotional boxes..and the voice is phenomenal ❤️
One of the best songs ever. It sure brings back all kinds of memories, good and bad.

I only have bad memories in my head :(
@@wizenedoak5046how do you rule over bodily functions? If you can control those, you are a super hero in my book

This song never hit before, now it does because you made me read the lyrics. It is the most beautiful love song I've ever heard 😢❤😊
Elton ha realizzato un disco più bello dell'altro,grazie genio❤
Great song, brilliant Elton and Bernie and Stevie Wonder playing harmoica. So many memories
A masterpiece
Heard this song for the first time at work through their radio and became obsessed. I love Elton John but never heard this one.
Congratulations!
My family always sings this in Karaoke for my Uncle Pat who is watching from Heaven

"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."
I'm here home waiting 🖤
My favorite 80's Elton song.
To the Young Pilgrim Music: Thank you ever so much for getting the lyrics right!!! It means a lot! Job well done!
I can't believe it!! I discovered this song just yesterday!!
Enjoy 😊
When Elton comes on wherever, whenever, you better believe I'll be singing like it's my lifeline lol.
