    About 15 years ago, Elton was asked about musicians he enjoyed and he mentioned Ryan Adams. Thank you, Elton! Ryan's album Heartbreaker is amazing.

    Gotta love Crossroads... Elton John + Ryan Adams, John Mayer + Keith Urban, Def Leppard + Talyor Swift, Elvis Costello + Lucinda Williams - the pairings are often unexpected and always entertaining. It's interesting to see who wants to work together and to see them add each other's tunes to their own concert playlist as Sir Elton has.

    I can't imagine how it must feel for a songwriter to be covered by one of the greatest songwriters who has ever lived. Cud-dos to Mr. John for recognizing a fellow great song writer. Great cover!

      He does most of his own work. However, he does cover other singers live. This song was written and recorded by Ryan Adams off his Heartbreaker album.

      Edward Coleman I love the way Elton doesn’t even try to steal the song. It’s like he’s simply saying, “yeah... this song means something to me, too.” It’s really such a beautiful way to cover the song.

    I went down to Houston, and I stopped in San Antone
    I passed up the station for the bus
    I was trying to find me something but I wasn't sure just what
    Man I ended up with pockets full of dust
    So I went on to Cleveland and I ended up insane
    I bought a borrowed suit and learned to dance
    I was spending money like the way it likes to rain
    Man I ended up with pockets full of cane
    Oh my sweet Carolina
    What compels me to go?
    Oh my sweet disposition
    May you one day carry me home
    I've never been to Vegas, but I gambled up my life
    Building newsprint boats I race to sewer mains
    Trying to find me something but I wasn't sure just what
    Funny how they say that some things never change
    Oh my sweet Carolina
    What compels me to go?
    Oh my sweet disposition
    May you one day carry me home
    Up here in the city feels like things are closing me
    Sunset's just my light bulb burning out
    I miss Kentucky and I miss my family
    All the sweetest winds they blow across the south
    Oh my sweet Carolina
    What compels me to go?
    Oh my sweet disposition
    May you one day carry me home
    May you one day carry me home

      NO, NO NOOOOOO!!!!.....an opinion....covers of this should be banned(even Mr John's)...this is a song i've loved for so long sung by the amazing Ryan Adams. A few years back my then 8 year old daughter came upstairs in an HMV store in BATH, ENGLAND with the most excited look on her face and the following poured out of her mouth.."DAD, DAD!!!!....YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS BUT THEY ARE PLAYING "RYAN ADAMS OH SWEET CAROLINA" DOWNSTAIRS"..she hadn't realised it went all over the shop....christ i nearly wept with pride...she'd been listening when i'd been playing it...we hugged and stood there listening to the most beautiful rendition of Ryan's song...HIS!!!!!.....don't believe me??....google the damned song!!!.....now i'm a songwriter and there is one out there with my name attached to it with one of the most beautiful female singer"s voice i'm ever likely to work with...praying you don't cover this one Elton(not that i don't like you brother)
      BREATHE by JASMINE LAMPORT........it's positively flying.
