Just a fantastic song, all these top 10 songs can be interchangeable, but this is just a great great song I remember when rock was young and elton john was number 1 I remember when this came out and i loved this song, but my best friend liked Candle in the wind. This is the song that elton claimed to be the "worst vocals ever", but i like it Yes that's right one from the fox, the long forgotten lp, maybe not as forgotten as victim of love though L ast live song, this is probably one of my all time favorite elton songs, but this entire list except for number 1 can be switched aroundĭon't shoot me makes it debut, first of 3 songs. Made this into a twofer, actually kind of goes together on the lp. I know i said i didn't want to put up live versions but since they wouldn't let me put up the studio versions, i thought what the heck so here is a live version for 74. Two songs he recorded but were never released as singles Most people say that the original recording of a song is the best, well i say that if elton records someone else song then he does it better, so here is a twofer. killer songs that finish up this awesome lp Rock of the westies brought us this very lovely songīack to captain fantastic. I Fell Ilke A Bullet In The Gun Of Robert Ford so as a tribute to this change this song makes itĢ3. This song is what i consider the "rebirth" of elton john, he teamed up with a remarkable producer to completely change his sound and it worked. I love this song from captain fantastic, most of my friends never liked it, but i like it. Well i didnt want to put up live versions of songs, but youtube says this one is banned worldwide, so i put up a live version and it went thru(go friggin figure) so here it is only reason im even putting it up live is because i reall y love this song, its from 2v40
If you saw the 84 wembley concert, elton had a good time doing this song, only heard live one time myself, of course he didnt do all the jumping up as he did at wembley, but its a rocking live number so here is number 30Īlmost forgot one, also one of the earlier songs.įrom caribou, which i believe has the most songs on my list. anyway this is the only song that has charlie morgan on drums(on this list), imo he is the best drummer Elton has had, i just love his style, don't get me wrong, Nigel in his younger days was one of the best there ever was, but charlie is more into rocking than Nigel ever was, Nigel is more into ballads than he is rock songs.
No titles, just numbers, be more surprised that way, ha. anyhow, my top 30 is a bit different, I made a little video for each song, so there will be 30 uploads, just to rehash old memories i guess, some songs I will talk about others i will just upload. seen him in concert 15 times, the first was in 1980 just 2 weeks after the central park concert, saw him and billy 3 times the 2nd show they did together in philly, then 12 days later in Washington dc then the following year in Clemson sc. Hello everybody, i was asked if i could come up with 30 of my favorite elton songs for the 30th anniversary of Allsongslist reg, well as many know it is hard to come up with just 30, but I picked 30 of the ones that for some reason or the other really got to me, may it be a love song, or rocker, or just a song that seemed a bit different, i believe the "newest" song on my list is healing hands, sure some later songs are good, i want love, this train, the one, ect, but to me they just aren't elton enough for me, if that makes sense, anyway big fan since the first time I heard "levon" on the radio. So, welcome Terry, this is your list, thanks for joining us on the celebration. He reunited the songs on dropbox, in case you were interested in the list.
He surprised me sending his list but with videos created of the songs, so you could enjoy reading while listening. Some eltonites I found out there surprising me with something I couldn't expect. My next guest of the list is someone very special.
