One of my favoriters by Elton.He performed this song on Soul Train back in the day.
The link is the one of the same, but it's a clearer Soul Train video, but it had a commercial at the start. WTF.

A+ for the strings on this...just makes the thing work, imo. Funk Is It's Own Reward | |

Written as favor to tennis player, Billie Jean King. The team that she played on was called, The Philadelphia Freedoms. "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" | |

musically,this song seems to be a tribute to the "Philadelphia Sound" that Elton admired so much.A few years later,he jumped on that bandwagon and hired Thom Bell to produce his album.Definately his best song! Andy is a four letter word. | |

Elton is one of those artists that I've grown to hate because he has been on the radio every single day of my life since birth. I'm just soooo sick of his material. This is a good song though but I'll go with Esther Phillips' version. That's my girl right there. "Keep in mind that I'm an artist...and I'm sensitive about my shit."--E. Badu | |

Love the song, love the album! Brings back great memories from childhood! "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato
