I don't like Elton, but Bennie & The Jets and Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting are great.

Jeez! You liked that version?

I thought seeing Beddingfield's scraggy, fat ass pacing distractedly about the stage, and randomly screeching into the microphone then grinning was one of the worst things I'd EVER seen! (Mind you, the whole things was a bit "pass-the-sick-bucket" at times....)

When Jamie Cullum is the best on the bill, something is wrong. Very wrong.

Well , i expected much worse from him singing live
It wasn't bad i think , but , maybe he did sing a little too exaggerated

"The One" and "I Want Love" ... neither of which are from his classic years, but these are the two that connect with me on a fundamental level.

favorite live performance, though, is always "Burn Down The Mission." he always rocks that on piano.... to borrow a line EW used to describe that fiddle player in all of Kanye West's stuff... "[he]'s a real gangsta on the instrument."


lol

Love him or hate him, Elton has so many great songs I don't know where to begin. The entire "goodbye yellow brick road" album is a masterpiece. Every song is great. I think one of my favourite Elton songs has to be "tiny dancer". And even though we've all heard "your song" a billion times, it's still one of the best songs ever!

'American Triangle' - for personal reasons.

There are many more besides, but that tops MY personal list.
