Its just too bad we don't have all that many talented musicians now a days to fill the shoes of all the greats that we've come to know and love. I feel bad for wherever music is headed...
When you realize you have never known a time in your life where this mans music wasnt woven in the fabric of your musical life, you appreciated it beyond measure. Such a beautiful mind to create such songs.. Thanks Elton.
Listen. I saw Elton John twice. He is a great performer and to those who say he did not hit the high notes. He has earned the right to sing it any way he wants.
He sang it like that 40 years ago. The fact he is still here is more than enough. Elton is legend. God bless him, and god bless us for being here when he was.

It's hard to believe that it has already been a few years since this concert. Where have the years gone? But wow.. he's still got it. Elton John is a legend and he always will be.
Ah... the ongoing discussion of the better between his present or former voice.... in the early seventies his 33 lp album was my favorite album, then when cassettes were big I'd enjoy his singing in my car... now nearing sixty myself I marvel at how his voice has matured and how my daughters (11 and 15) have embraced his music, just as I did. What we hear in Elton today is more than a great singer/pianist but the stuff legends are made of!
Love how he looks over his glasses at his audience. If you've never seen Sir Elton John live, GO if you get the chance. His concert is like a gift. His presence an honor.
i saw sir Elton live at a little venue of less than 6k people in Yakima Washington just two years ago. wow, the best concert ever and i was late due to parking issues. think of this video only three hours long! a true legend and i am a huge fan!
There are few people who have changed the course of music, Elton John is one of those. Timeless music feels like it was written today.. that's an accomplishment to the testament and creativity he brings into his performances.
I love me some Sir Elton John!! Great memories associated with his music from the 1970's to today!! He was absolutely awesome in Charlotte NC a couple of years ago. thank you Elton
Jan 2010 Honolulu - When my 15-year old daughter hooted and howled as he started playing, I realized EJ had spanned the generations... then thanked God for yet another joy my daughter and I could share!!
Im 23 and just the same. But my mum introduced me to elton john a long time ago. And Im a fan of his ever since the true princess of GB died. RIP Diana
seen him las sunday nite !! man hes still got it it!!! he performed bout 3 hrs!! he brought the house down!!! i was third row and got ta go up ta stage and talk to him!! what a nice guy!!! id pay ta see him again tomorrow!!!
Wow, he still got it! I saw him in concert twice and he was outstanding both times..both concerts were totally different. I heard that Bernie got the lyrics to this song while he was driving and he had to rush home and write them down before he forgot them!
William Benner He said it was inspired by a Ray Bradbury story he read a kid about how in the future being an astronaut would just be a normal 9 to 5 job......still not quite there yet lol
This is the best video on CZcams hands down. Absolutely 100% genius, this is the most amazing thing I have ever heard in my life, when he gets into the blues part I get shivers and goosebumps every time. I am completely speechless... Wow
i seen ELTON in evansville in and he was the best musician ive ever seen in my life !!! hands down. im a musician myself and he is a class act with none to follow ,create your own path. SIR ELTON PAVED HIS...and i am very grateful,thank you Mr. Elton John for gracing the stage.....MKE
sheer utter perfection and the only thing I want to hear on repeat for the entire day when that inevitable day comes, shall I still be here......LEGEND
I cannot get enough of this song. I love seeing the Master Of Piano at work. Legendary artist, great man. Sir Elton John. I had the privilege to see him in concert a few months ago. Blew my mind as to how much energy he brings to the stage. AND the man can sing.
One in a billion The best version of Rocket Man.. Bravissimo!! God damn that was amazing dont u think i never seen him so excited while playing the piano
Elton John is an incredible piano player!!! people with the God given talent to make such amazing music !!! he is a living legend !!!! I thank the Lord for blessing us all with such beautiful music!!!!!!
One of the best songs to ever be put together, to experience and be a part of the audience is a privelage I've had three times and hopefully more. The power of the crowd at the end of this song is one of the most overwhelming feelings I've had ever felt in a concert.
I' am a 29 year old male, I listen to a variety of music but mostly rap and R & B. I do have the capability of recognizing excellent music when I hear it. I never new EJ was the artist of this song and I can honestly say he has gained another fan. Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this so much reminds me of me seeing him live in las vegas with his Red Piano-Show at caesars palace. It puts me back in time. AND DAMN, HE IS AWESOME LIVE!!!
Saw him last night, his concert rendition of this song gave me goosebumps and rewarded him with a standing ovation from a packed house during his post/pre song bows and waves.
Went to see him in Caen (Normandy-France) last night and he was absolutely amazing. Thought he was going to perform under normal standard considering Caen isn't a big city but he was having the time of his life and so were the band. Thanks a million SIR Elton John for 2 1/2 hours of magnificient entertainment.
Elton played here in Oct 97 shortly after he lost Versace then Princess Di. I guess he felt the love, and added a 2nd show for May 98. It was a very chilly, rainy, overcast night and he came out and said he was going to play an extended concert for us and did anyone mind? The rain fell halfway into the concert. then he began ROCKETMAN... and it was like magic, the the clouds parted, rain stopped, and stars were visible! WHat a thunder of applause as he sang! SOng ended, rain came back :(
Its just too bad we don't have all that many talented musicians now a days to fill the shoes of all the greats that we've come to know and love. I feel bad for wherever music is headed...
fucking ozzy was there :o massive respect to musicians that changed the face of the planet!

I'm a rocket man... yeah you sing always the way to want. Elton.
I saw him in concert about 30 years ago in Chicago....It was the best concert I have ever seen.

A few years later... I wish there were a better quality version of the whole concert on youtube, but beggars can't be choosers.
His Las Vegas show was outstanding. If anyone ever has the chance to see him live in Vegas you wont regret it!
1,000% Class. 1,000% Legend.
I'm 12 and i love elton john !!!!!!!!!!
27 now 😊
This dude can totally still rock. Nice to see you can keep your voice at this age.
This song is so beautiful... aun the way he plays the piano... is so delicated... perfect!!!

One of the best songs to ever be put together, to experience and be a part of the audience is a privelage I've had three times and hopefully more. The power of the crowd at the end of this song is one of the most overwhelming feelings I've had ever felt in a concert.
Saw Elton in concert in 1982 and it's one of the best performances I've seen.
I can't believe it! Two of my favorite singers in the same clip- Ozzy and Elton! Cool!
I' am a 29 year old male, I listen to a variety of music but mostly rap and R & B. I do have the capability of recognizing excellent music when I hear it. I never new EJ was the artist of this song and I can honestly say he has gained another fan. Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
