I tear up everytime I hear this song, me and my wife slow danced to this song on the Beach down by the water. It was pure magic, thank you Elton for a beautiful song, from an iconic singer.
One of the greatest songs ever! It had me tearing up at age 14 when I didn't really understand how powerful love could be. It still has me tearing up at age 49! Such pure innocent music.
Has me tearing up as well smh. If you've ever had a powerful love....this speaks perfectly to and of it. Especially the line "I simply love you, more than I love, life itself."
I want this song played at my funeral to remind my wife kids and grandkids that its ok. I'm still here even though im not there. I simply love them more then i love life itself.
Very very touching song! Found my 7th grade crush about 4 months ago! We are both 51 now and both single! I sent her this song this morning! ❤️❤️ she still has the picture I gave her of me in the 7th grade. Now I’m tearing up. Dammit! I still love you Michelle :)
Ethan thanks brother. We chat from Tim to time. She’s retired and still single. I have three years. We are gonna meet after this whole thing is over. God bless you brother :)
I've seen this guy in concert twice. I would see him again, an indefinite number of times. This guy is a human gem - for everyone. A musical GENIUS and an incredible human being! My respect and my love for this guy! I only wish I could convey my thoughts personally. I have been following this guy for decades! My wife loves his stuff. God Bles you, Elton. You write beautiful music for beautiful lyrics. Wow. A beacon in an age of darkness!
Nothing wrong with having real feelings for the one you love. This song is lyrically deep and i love sharing it with my wife. Elton is awesome. Cheers to all hope you fine yourself well during this corona thing.
This song is truly something special. For me, everything about this song is something that I see as especially beautiful and a symbol of something that is nearly perfect from beginning to end. A true work of art from the depths of a fascinating human
It's the first time I saw the words to this song. Someone I spoke to last night has instigated this song and hasn't stop playing it in my head. Not a big listener and haven't heard a song of his in ages but you Sir Elton John, your music is legendary for so many reasons. This is getting saved to my very large RU-vid library
A gorgeous guy,and a beautiful love song. My brother's first serious girlfriend loved Herb Alpert,everytime she'd visit with us, she'd bring all his records with her. What with him,my brother's Mowtown collection,and my Beatlemania,our trailer was always filled with music. Wonderful memories, the sixties had the best music EVER!
Stevie Wonder playing one of the very best harmonica solos I have ever been blessed to hear!!! The original music video 4 this song is one of the best videos 2 come out of the video age...……..Thanks Elton & Company 4 all your beautiful tunes and some grrrreat videos as well...……...
12-26-2018, the day after christmas is the day my girlfriend Jasmine died. I miss her ever so much and this song reminds me of her every time. I miss you Jasmine, may you rest in peace my love.
An era of such talented lyrics, beautiful human language of love and life seems to be leaving the room. Such a beautiful song, live for each second, I do. Thankyou for this song, for your gift of music for singing words we can't say. Blessings 🙏💞 xx
I loved you, Elizabeth. I knew love by knowing you. Oh, how this song just destroys me. “Time on my hands could be time spent with you..” Always my girl, even without.
27 years with my man. He works offshore and is gone for 6 months out of the year. And I can honestly say that I cry in the night when he’s gone….and Elton was right! It helps ❤️
Tbh I am not really a fan of EJ, but this song randomly popped into my head and would not go away. Finally the chorus came to me. I played the video like 10 times and it gives me chills every time. Beautiful song.🤭🤭🤭
There was upon on a time.... some years ago... a girl as other teenager more who attended a concert of Elton John in Barcelona... and this girl could realize that Elton is a beast of scenery and its songs and lyrics are consciences made with real sense for this girl who could check in live the great humanity personality and brilliant friendly of the start showing with humility all your virtues as a great professional and better person. This girl... is me.. and I can confirm that all my life I have been carried with me in the bottom of my heart all your songs...as a real chapter of life to discover and check it self with its true and realities... so that I would like to grate to you all your dedication to do a great job with a tonnes of pure love... which has been received for me and your audience... as a present for life.. that's in fact what it is ineed... a piece of art forever and ever!!! THANKS A LOT FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!!! I WILL LOVE YOU AND YOUR SONGS THE REST OF MY LIFE!!! LOT OF KISSES!!!!😘😘😘😘😘💖💖💖💖💖💖
Elton just simply ....works. On a tram home again after a hard days work and yet my mind is free and relaxed; all because of my "rocket' man - love you Elton♥️
As a soon to be divorced father of two beautiful girls this was a song that I played for their mother a lot out of pain. I have since moved on and ironically ran into the old love of my life, no not connected to divorce with your judgmental ass lol. I have started to relisten to this song but now I hear all the great happy sides to the song like “ live each second without hesitation and never forget I’m your man” it’s crazy how one song can make you feel the full range of emotions. This is a beautiful man who sings such soul stirring stuff that it is eerie how it fits into your own life. Ty Sir John!!!!
I Looked up the lyrics while my hubby and I where snuggling together (phone behind his shoulder, he was facing me) He knew Every. Single. Word...If he only knew he melted my heart ❤️🥹🥺🥹🥰😉😘
I'am sad because a girl that I love "more than life itself" doesn't love me (in fact, she loves an other guy). One morning, I woke up with this song on my mind and I came here to listen this song. I cried in the morning for long minutes, listening this absolute song and I felt better than before. Thank you Elton, thank you Bernie. You are the bests. Your song made me glad to love this girl (even if she doesn't love me). She is the more gorgeous being on earth. If she doesn't love, I would like to be her friend. I love you Élodie.
Time on my hands, could be time spent w/ you Laughing like children Living like lovers Rolling like thunder.... Under the covers.... I played this for the one I'm in love with last year about this time, and I'm singing this verse to her as it played in my truck , and as I'm singing along and looking into her Caribbean blue eyes the rolling like thunder under the covers verse.. she smiled at me right then and ... twas the most beautiful sight I've ever seen ..I knew I was in love....she left 4 months later without warning...I was so certain she was the one... I've never felt pain like I've been feeling since 4/24/18....I miss her so son much I'll always love you Keri Nicole..
Rolling like thunder under the covers is clearly a reference to a “Dutch Oven.” Now, go listen to “It”s like the son going down on me” while I Google my new queen.
