Elton is a true talent there's so much of his music you can explore. This is a beautiful version of the song the studio version actually has a lot of nice instruments in it if you're ever interested in checking that out. Loving your reactions by the way

This shows his talent. The original studio recording has extensive orchestration and background singers. Really beautiful.

Icon Genius superstar Elton John is magical. Mona Lisa’s and Madhatters is one of my favs. ❤

Can't believe you reacted to this! It's been one of my favorite songs for 50 years. I'm happy that you like it. Thanks!

Just him and his piano

Dude Mona Lisa’s and Mad Hatters is my song!!

Elton writes the music for his songs and his lyricist is Bernie Taupin (taw-pin). This is about Bernie's wife at the time called Maxine. There is incredible diversity in Elton's catalogue. There are many piano ballads, but a load of other good stuff as well. E.g. "Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting" which is a ballsy rocker! It was inspired by Bernie's raucous teenage days and, in particular, the fistfights in his local pub lol! 😜 Elton would get the lyrics through the post and set them to suitable music.

Elton John is a true legend. His creations & sounds always offer something special. He definitely is a good one. Thank you for sharing.

Of all of Elton John's songs, this is my favorite. Reminds me of LA. ❤️

So many legendary songs from this genius. My favorite is Empty Garden.....his tribute to John Lennon after he was murdered.

MDreeezy - This is another iconic piece that exemplifies the sound of the 70's. What a good song - brings back so many memories. Wish you could have been there with us in real time.

I saw Elton in 1976 it was his bicentennial tour. it was phenomenal in his prime in the seventies✌️❤️

Elton is another one that does dot have a bad one in the whole catelog. He has a variety to choose from Candle in the Wind, Saturday Allrights for Fighting, Funeral for a Friend, Your Song all great!

Madman Across the Water. The original album version.

My favorite artist. Another good one is Goodbye Yellowbrick Road.

A master ❤

Mona Lisa's for sure!

Great review/reaction. This music is the playlist of my life, as I was almost a teenager when this came out. To me, Elton John (and Bernie Taupin) are top 5 songwriters and Elton is probably one of the best musicians and harmony/melody writers and performers of all time. His first 9-10 albums (From Empty Sky to Captain Fantastic) are all brilliant, and most of the deep cuts on each sound better to me than most hits in the last 20 years. I feel lucky to have lived through the 60's, 70's and 80's listening to the best music of all time.

Listen to him do 'Sacrifice ' it's brilliant. I think you'll like it.

I am an absolute proponent of artist songs never being altered or cut... whether it's for radio or whatever

He should be called Elton John and Bernie Taupin because they are a legendary team who can't really be separated! Cheers.

Tiny Dancer one of Elton's earlg songs, ..I just love the Chorous ..There's such an varied selection of his music..my favourite is his duet that he did with kiki Dee, 'Don't go breaking my heart'..The late Princess Diana was very fond of his music Elton did his piano tribute of Candle in the Wind live at her Funeral... I agree with you Elton Jhon from that time when 'Pure Quality Music' with real instruments was produced.. Don't forget to react to 'Ambrosia, Biggest Part of me' and Player, 'Baby Come Back'..You're sure to enjoy

❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️

Checkout Funeral For A Friend! The live version, at Madison Square Garden! Starts slow and builds and builds... Showing his range of styles, changes in tempo, one of his best! In my not so humble opinion... 😂

This beautiful song is used in the movie Almost Famous, which you should check out. It's great and is based on the true experiences of rock journalist Cameron Crowe, who made the film.

Funeral for a Friend (from his double LP Good-bye Yellow Brick Road) is an instrumental that leads directly to and inextricably linked to Love Lies Bleeding (banger!) so if you choose to react to that one, I recommend you use the studio album audio and do both songs 😁

Neil Young, Old Man - Live. Just him an acoustic guitar and a harmonica.

Live version of Burn Down the Mission.

"Harmony "

Listen to the album..not live. Elton John has some Great songs.

Live is ok and Elton is great live BUT... The studio recordings are unmatched compared to a live performance. Please hear the lyric video. You still have not heard this song as originally presented to the people en mass.😮😊

Eric Clapton. Old love Layla. Eric was no 2 under Jimmy Hendricks greatest guitarists

I have a question Has your journey into the past reinforced your opinion about what's about for the ears of the younger generation. If the answer is yes, then it's down to you and those like you to educate those less savey. No pressure 🤪
