I think I met the Elton quota on my other blog, so I'll put a few here, too :::g::: Here's one pre-polyp surgery. It's hard to tell with this song, as it doesn't have the range of some of his others... but it's still a favorite!
Your Song:
Maggie would let me sing this one, cause it made me cry -- of course she turned the volume up! Now, with Hannah joining John Lennon in the big party on the other side, I'm both comforted and jealous.
Empty Garden (Hey, Hey Johnny):
One more classic. This one's pre-polyp, pre-hair plugs (in fact, I think it's pre-occupation with hair loss), pre-gay (does he kiss her boobie?!) Elton with Kiki Dee (gotta love the dorothy hamill hair!) (If you've never heard Sugar on the Floor, you should! He wrote it for her! --correction, SHE wrote the words, he the music and he sang it).
Don't Go Breakin' My Heart:
Holy Cow!! 30 years later, he's got more hair, better glasses and a much better (?) wardrobe... Kiki looks HOT with her much shorter but still Dorothy Hamill hairdo!
I can't find the Miss Piggy version... but if you do, PLEASE pass it along!
FOUND IT!!!
I'm not obsessed, really I'm not! But you gotta see

Sugar on the Floor Lyrics:
You're a stranger to me
Then you give me your life
I toss it to one side
Still you're sweeter to me
When we lie on the shore
It's warm where you are
But my lips just don't burn
I feel so insecure
When you try to be kind
Could I ask for more
Looking at you now I know you only want to find me
Still I need a reason to leave the past behind me
Behind me
There ain't no easy way
To learn how to fly
I hope that I can kill
When I turn around you're there
Should I ask for more
I feel like sugar on the floor
I feel like sugar on the floor
