Subject: Favorite Elton John Song
Written By: eightieschick53 on 01/03/05 at 11:28 am
My favorite is Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. It is without a doubt one of the most beautiful songs he ever sang. I also really like Your Song.

I love Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, followed by Bennie and the Jets, Your Song, and Tiny Dancer. The song I absolutely detest is "Philadelphia Freedom". I'm from Philly and it was so annoying year after year to hear that song played on the 4th of July!

I just checked out the "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" songs to refresh my memory.
Good one, ladybug. ;)
(I'm also going to check out the EJ songs mentioned by others that I plain just don't remember...)

Written By: Trimac20 on 02/13/05 at 8:44 am
Without a doubt Tiny Dancer. When I first heard it I thought it was one of Elton's later songs, but I was surprised to learn it was released in 1971. Other than that, Daniel, Crocodile Rock, Your Song and Candle in the Wind. I don't particularly like Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Rocket Man etc and most of the other songs.

Written By: Ashkicksass on 02/14/05 at 2:47 pm
I voted "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" because I love it, but I'm going to have to add "The Last Song" because it's just gorgeous, and "I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues."

"Funeral for a friend/ Love lies bleeding", "Indian Sunset", and "Daniel".

Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding. (I really like Elton's guitar player.)

Goodbye, Yellow Brick Road
For the 80s, it was I'm Still Standing, and for the 90s, it was Circle of Life. For the millenium, I'd say I Want Love's best.

He had a lot of good early stuff.
I go with Levon.
