Elton John - I'm Still Standing (Live Aid 1985) 

At his peak , Elton is one of the greatest

Best live performer I’ve ever seen. I worked at an arena and seen Hundreds of performances, he would play for hours straight. And sounded better live thst on the radio

I’m almost 50, & I love singing every lyric with my 17yr old niece. You are a timeless, talented genius, Sir Elton. We love you!

I feel Elton John doesn't get enough credit for his performances.... the guy sits in a chair whilst playing the piano whilst singing and STILL has the energy and charisma to engage the audience and gets them and me hyped the f**k up! 😂 absolute legend

Elton was like this Ain't over, and he just started playing 😎🔥💯

I’m 24 and have been listening to Elton non stop I wanna make music like him! He was and still is a legend!!

The sound engineer had a hard time dealing with that feedback noises… Anyway, great performance!

Ladies and gentlemen The musical genius Sir Elton John

Even with the sound engineer messing up this still one of the best live performances

Elton the king of pop-rock

I’ve seen Elton live in cairns Australia, and his concert was Awesome. I couldn’t believe I was seeing him live. He sang I’m still standing. it’s my very favorite of all his songs.

A bloody masterpiece.

One of a kind Sir Elton John a national treasure.

This reminds me so much of the early 80s. I would give ANYTHING to go back to the summer of 1983 Best year of my life. It never got better, just kept getting worse.

37 years later and finally someone got the sound right haha.

I met a guy that worked on the sound system on this show! He was a Santa for Christmas and he met some of the singers/bands!

Love this so much. I saw Elton John in Philadelphia in 2006 at Fairmount Park. It was so fun, and I was so impressed with Philly! What a song and what a rockin beat!

thank you LIVE AID this song sounds the arrival of Elton on stage, the quality is superb .... I remember that Freddie Mercury said to Elton '' but why are you dressed like the queen mother.?(to joke Freddie and Elton were very good friends)

Back when EJ still had all of his vocal range. Great! Bravo!

What a fantastic song!! Almost 50 and still singing and dancing when I hear it!😊❤❤

That was epic

There he is, the man, the legend.

one of my forever cherished memories will be being able to scream this song in the same room as this legend

The show goes on..

I was 7 days old. I've seen him live twice. Amazing every time!

Wow! Elton John is wonderful!

🙌What impressive music!! That music never get age!! Adore creation dear Elton !! Very talanted musician and singer ,no words,only emotions!! Thank you,dear Elton ,for everything!! Respect from Lithuania!!🌾🇱🇹🌾

i was lucky enough to see him earlier this year and i'm super excited to see him next year in royal arena, copenhagen

Wow! I have always wanted to see this man…😥 (2023) still waiting! 🤷‍♀️

I have always loved Elton John's music. His albums were excellent (on vinyl LPs).

Elton had tickets to a 10 pm movie that night and hates missing the previews.

Damn, how good he was on that 👌🏻 One can literally see what happens when he starts his engine Under that condition an outstanding performance ❤

finally it was realised with some better quality thank you

SIR ELTON JOHN FOREVER! LONG LIVE SIR ELTON JOHN!

I'm still standing better than I ever did, looking like a true surviver feeling like a little kid, I'm still standing after all this time.

I always loved this version! Thanks for posting it! The way it just starts with a few piano chords...then kicks in with the band and horns. I also love the minor feedback through the speakers. It really captures that chaos and spontaneity of that hot July day. I still remember watching it all day when I was 16!

My favourite song from Elton,………I am still standing and will continue going forward………we all have a story,…….keep being Amazing,….keep going Strong…Love to you……..💪💋

Thank GOD they patched this one up to be listenable - though I still love the original with the feedback and out of key guitar, seems they touched up his voice just a bit too..

Absolutely love this song 😍 the lyrics and everything ❤️

You could never know what it's like Your blood like winter freezes just like ice And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use And did you think this fool could never win? Well look at me, I'm coming back again I got a taste of love in a simple way And if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fade away Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid I'm still standing after all this time Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah Once I never could hope to win You starting down the road leaving me again The threats you made were meant to cut me down And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid I'm still standing after all this time Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid I'm still standing after all this time Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

They uploaded it!!

Definitivamente de los mejores conciertos de la historia

My baby is 2.. first song she sings.

Glad they uploaded this

Fantastic impression of Les Dawson at the start there Elt.

I hope a new 40th Blu-ray edition of live aid with all performances that were cut from the dvd will be released in a few years needs to happen 🎉😊

Very cool

I thought my video speed was at 1.25 but it's just the power of cocainaaaaa!🤣🤣🤣

Master at his craft

Sir Elton is One of the best

NO AUTOTUNE NO A.I, THE BEST ELTON HI FROM BUENOS AIRES ARGENTINA

⚡Damn I miss the flashes of Cameras ⚡ Zero cell phones , what a time

The best performance!

Thanks for this , will be nice to see the set FINALLY complete once the next track is uploaded. Hope for a up-scaled Blu Ray of the whole concert one day...

I'm still yawning like I never did!!!!!!!!

Idk what people say there should have been a remake of this at the end of rocketman

I was mesmerised by Elton's performance. Watching his stubby hands producing that sound. I remember seeing him getting pissed off with the sound even at the time, but it was a huge performance, the horns are amazing, and Kiki 🥰 looked hot.😜 Its no secret he was at a low ebb personally at the time, but live he still kicked ass.

I was 15 and still standing 🙂

nice

When you finish with you video put all together pls to 10h or more of live pls 🎸🎸🎸🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

my inspiration

YESSSSSSSS

It is great to hear this mixed better although I don’t know what happened to the Bryan adams songs which have been made private it would be great to hear all the Bryan adams songs in the complete set using the version of Tears Are Not Enough uploaded a few years ago

Nice clean up in the mix ... Davies guitars are muted to block out his foot pedal transposition problems... and his solo is dirtier and clearer... it's great... thank you Live Aid.

more like live aids lol (jokes, Elton, Freddie and everyone who performed at live aid was absolutely amazing)

They actually went and did it

Nice

Eu. GOSTO DAS MUSICAS. DO. ELTON

Eveenyothebestever!

'...and over to you Philadelphia.." oh. what could have been

🔥❤️

The banding on the camera lenses is caused by sheer outrageous decibel levels.

Damn

Good

Like 708 wow🎉

I’m almost 70 yrs old now and grew up with Elton John and his music. I always liked him, but NOW that he’s gotten older, I can honestly say that I ❤ him and think he’s improved both vocally and instrumentally (he’s added a LOT more piano 🎹 in his concert performances)! This is a an ‘old’ song that doesn’t go out of style imo, and he’s still been playing it at his ‘Farewell’ concert tour in 2022, but SO MUCH BETTER than this 👎 version! I’ve watched all the videos from this concert he did, and not one has been nearly as well done back then in comparison! Elton’s a real legend in the music world - not only is he talented but he’s also a terrific performer and has great showmanship! * I went to his Farewell concerts 2 X’s within a 6-month period in ‘22 w/ 1st row floor/stage seats - the entire band, including his original members like Davey Johnson 🎸 and Ray Cooper on drums 🥁 (who just never ceases to amaze me with his enthusiasm), etc. made for wonderful memories. Too bad he’s retiring or I would buy tic’s to see him again in a heartbeat 💓!

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👑🔥❤️‍🔥🎼🎹🎶❤️‍🔥🔥

Spare a thought for the lead guitarist with the director focusing on the piano!

How many times does he change the lyrics? he changed "well look at me I am coming back again" to "well look at me I am on the road again."

Not sure I’ve seen Ray Cooper playing a traditional drum kit in any of Elton’s other live performance videos

Istenien énekel es csodásan zongorázik

L E G E N D

It would've been pretty cool to see the Rocketman movie cross over with the Bohemian Rhapsody movie here at Live Aid, and just have Elton come on stage as Rami Malek and the rest of Queen leave

Elton John - I'm Still Standing (Live Aid 1985)

Wait this isn't shown on the live aid dvd is it? Why not??

Phil Chen on bass? Wow....

🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

What happened to all the great music?!!!

I’ve read that Davy Johnson messed up on guitar? At the start?

The camera man😂

Is it possible to edit out the feedback issues ?

Did he do this song along with the other songs? Or this was performed separately
