Born toward the end of 60’s and this song has been one of my favorites since the 70’s, from the guy with the glasses, hat, and big shoes (…platforms)… At least that’s what I called Elton when I was a kid. I can still remember one of the first times seeing him perform with crazy glasses, a crazy hat, crazy clothes, and crazy platforms on. But more than anything, I remember my reaction to hearing his voice and him playing the piano. He always pulled me in. ❤❤❤

As a Foundational Black American(Freedman) it gives my heart delight how our culture is enjoyed and mimicked by all other cultures around the world. To celebrate the Britain musical icon Elton John through FBA culture is befitting as soul music inspired his work.

This was one of me and my mom's jams as I grew up and may she rest in love❤ I can't stop smiling and do grateful for all her great music choices/tastes as I grew up that knew no gender, orientation, race or culture. She was one of the best ❤❤❤❤❤🎉 thanks Elton for the years of rocking with my momma

Killer performance of this song. I had just read that this was one song that Sir Elton John least liked to perform. He would still perform it, because everyone wanted to hear it.. It has to be in the top ten favorite songs of mine by Him.❤

IDK if I’d believe that, or everything else people write about others. I saw Elton performing this one live in ‘22 in his 2 ‘Farewell’ concerts. Both included this song, and he appeared to thoroughly enjoy it (as well as the audience), plus he did an 👏 awesome imo (@ 70ish)!
