- magicalhippo 7mo agoHe did an interesting cover[1] of Elton John's Rocket Man[2] back in 78. That cover was later remixed into this[3] piece of internet gold (IMHO).

- b112 7mo agoThis is very well done, thanks

- DHolzer 7mo agoI have to say, the brass arrangement is pretty good - would have loved to be there when they recorded that staccato part.
- linsomniac 7mo agoAgreed, it fits well within his range and it's IMHO a really great cover of Common People. I also really enjoy _That's Me Trying_: https://youtu.be/vjGaqFrF5Fw?si=eq_VSQXnxqXQ_Kyg https://youtu.be/vjGaqFrF5Fw?si=eq_VSQXnxqXQ_Kyg and _Real_: https://youtu.be/hsKfZ3wvLkE?si=l7FdbGCX_u8ep0Ie https://youtu.be/hsKfZ3wvLkE?si=l7FdbGCX_u8ep0Ie
- lovich 7mo agoI honestly thought his voice fit better for the theme of the song than the original
- dpe82 7mo agoEven better is the live version: https://vimeo.com/714215610 https://vimeo.com/714215610
- i_don_t_know 7mo agoThanks! That was actually really good. His performance matches the emotions underlying the song. Something all the covers of Behind Blue Eyes by The Who seem to miss is the slowly rising anger and frustration.
