How did this get no replies?  Ahhhh....you made the cardinal sin of actually writing the words 'NO GUITAR'! Oh well, their loss! Must be current Elton cos I don't know this one but the instruments and orchestration are superb and the vocal fits like a glove. Great stuff...next time put 'chock full of whammy and arpeggios'! |

i have heard this song many times and i like what you guys did with it. john you did a good job with the vox. elton is a tough one to do mimic and i think you captured the feeling of the song. this is an excellent cover guys.

Still cannot figure out how Elton ever escaped the child rent boy allegations in the early 70,s , that said he wrote some great songs , cant knock his song writing ability , this sounds steady enough , i don't know the tune , hell these vocals are sweet and sublime , really first class all round , in fact your definitely in my top 3 vocals 101 fav vocalists ! the voice is instantly likable great stuff guys 5 circles !
