It's a very clean and smooth version. I'm loving it. There's no ornament, no melisma, no abuse of falsetto... It's just the way it's supposed to be. You nailed it.
Haven't you ever heard Brody cover Freddie Mercury ? or the other 20 or 30 singers he covers. Brody Dolyniuk is amazing, look up YBR band, The Symphonic Rockshow, Rock show etc. Hours of pure delight !
if I close my eyes for like 30 seconds I swear u sound like Elton john. usually I don't like making covers of musical legends because it's either good or horribly bad and it always never be as good as the original but that my friend was amazing.
You just took 20 lb of pain off my heart. You are one heck of a beautiful man inside and out. The joy that you exude is something that I need like I need air. Thank you for taking the time to film this. You have a fan for life. All my heart, Carly
Watched this guy and YBR for about 10 years when I lived in Vegas. His voice is what I miss most about LV. Amazing... and he is hilarious as well. Thanks for all your talent and getting me thru the goods and bads.
I've seen Brody and YBR in vegas many times, to say He/they are great is an understatement. His ability to sing like the original performers is second to none! What an incredible talent and I hope all get to witness him in person. Brody: You are a great performer, thanks and keep em coming!
The comfortableness, the joking while playing. Very impressive...i dont play piano but I know when playing guitar and singing complex songs that involve arpeggios and accuracy its difficult to be so in zone that u can hit ur ques and be confident enough to joke around while doing it. Great cover. Listened to the whole thing, Another accomplishment not easily achieved.
I've been back here for like 5 days in a row now just listening to this over and over, great great cover....just stunning. All your other videos are top notch as well.
And...... I LOVE your comedic breaks in your performances. Nothing much better than beautiful music and comedy. :) Thank you, Brody. You make my heart smile.
I would have to totally agree! this is one of the very best covers on the whole of youtube! I get just as much joy from you performing this Brody ,as Elton John himself. I have listened to this over and over ,and the wife loves Brody's version as well. 20 stars.
Man Brody, that has to be the best Rocket Man cover I think I've ever heard! Better than the pros, especially Jason Mraz's version. You nailed it my friend!! Why aren't you signed to a major label? Awesome, just awesome!!
From one rocketman to another: This is such a hard song to sing and play but you were totally awesome!! BEST ROCKETMAN VERSION ON TH-cam! You are just amazing and should have a record contract.
WTF? I thought this guy was a joke until he banged out the first couple of notes . . . then I put my head down and opened my heart . . . Way 2 Go Dude!
man, i been watchin you for some time now and you just keep getting better. beautiful rendition. thanks for entertaining us and sharing your wonderful voice....
I think this guy would win American Idol on his singing alone ; but he has so much talent on the piano, guitar, bass, and studio recording its amazing.
Beautiful Man, great performance. I love it. You do sound like Elton John. If I were to hear just your voice, I might of mistaken it for Elton John. Beautiful voice. I’m impressed.
i don't think you sound anything like Elton John -- the song sounds like Elton John of course, but you have you own voice....and it's VERY good. I like this.
Annie Chen This is an awesome cover I agree with you...one of my favourite songs ever...but if you haven’t yet check out Liam Coopers version. Blows this out of the water! No disrespect.
this is absolutely amazing. i love elton john, and this is my favorite by him. what a great cover, great voice, great piano skills. 5 stars mate! well done :)
Thanks everyone for the nice comments. Haven't checked back here in a while....much appreciated!
~Brody
Amazing
Good old days ❤
Are you still alive?
It's a very clean and smooth version. I'm loving it. There's no ornament, no melisma, no abuse of falsetto... It's just the way it's supposed to be. You nailed it.
Very well put.
Nothing to add. Comment as good as cover. 👏👏
Jim Carrey is you?
Hahahahaha
Damn, Jim Carey is a great singer and pianist!
We have Marc Martel with Freddie Mercury’s voice and this guy with Elton John’s
Haven't you ever heard Brody cover Freddie Mercury ? or the other 20 or 30 singers he covers. Brody Dolyniuk is amazing, look up YBR band, The Symphonic Rockshow, Rock show etc. Hours of pure delight !
His Plant is EPIC! ZEPPLIN USA!
We have Elton John with Elton John's voice...
Calm down. He's good. Elton John is one of the best ever.

Eretic!
Wow you sound a lot like Elton. Damn good cover!
I thought the same thing. What a great voice, just like Elton.
Not supposed to imitate Elton suppose to be original.
Let him do what he wants
gdawgs101 listen to his Freddie...it’s awesome.
I thought that, too.
if I close my eyes for like 30 seconds I swear u sound like Elton john. usually I don't like making covers of musical legends because it's either good or horribly bad and it always never be as good as the original but that my friend was amazing.
2:20-2:26 gave me chills damnnn bro
I like how he pushed himself back a bit before releasing the high note into that mic.
5 years later still come back to this every once in a while bc it's so good!
The notification might bring you back ;)
T1nkerTV m8 try 12 years
Try 16
one of the best covers iv'e seen
One of the best singers on the planet.
If you close your eyes and just listen to the cover, you could thing that it's Elton's voice!
Just amazing, man! Congratulations!
Best approximation of Elton John I've heard
Heard all covers now on TH-cam. This one is the cleanest.
Even if you're crazy.
Amazing bro, Elton would be proud
So let's make Elton watch this video
lol!!... Crakin them knuckles and knocking this song out of the park!!! Dude! what a voice and talent! Im seriously jealous and entertained!
I have a good ear for music, and I will dare say that is the best cover song I have ever heard , vocally and musically. Awesome job.
You just took 20 lb of pain off my heart. You are one heck of a beautiful man inside and out. The joy that you exude is something that I need like I need air. Thank you for taking the time to film this. You have a fan for life. All my heart, Carly
Very amazing cover of Rocket man. Very tasteful singing and playing. Truly in the style of Elton..
Absolutely nailed it. Brilliant.!!!!
I came in expecting cringe....
*but this is amazing*
Watched this guy and YBR for about 10 years when I lived in Vegas. His voice is what I miss most about LV. Amazing... and he is hilarious as well. Thanks for all your talent and getting me thru the goods and bads.

one of the best covers of that song.!i sat with my stax signature head speakers and listen.it was like elton john was singing.wery good.
How are there not more views on this? This isn't a cover, it's a masterpiece.
It's a shame I truly wanted to see more Elton John covers from you man, this one is spot on!
The comfortableness, the joking while playing. Very impressive...i dont play piano but I know when playing guitar and singing complex songs that involve arpeggios and accuracy its difficult to be so in zone that u can hit ur ques and be confident enough to joke around while doing it. Great cover. Listened to the whole thing, Another accomplishment not easily achieved.
Mr. Dolyniuk is one of the greatest voice I ever heard. Absolutely astounding!
I've been back here for like 5 days in a row now just listening to this over and over, great great cover....just stunning. All your other videos are top notch as well.
Exceptionally good. Your comfort level with your voice and instrument are incredible. I'm inspired.
Dude, you slayed that. Wow, crazy good!
Just fantastic, best cover of this I've ever heard, vocals are killer 🤘
And...... I LOVE your comedic breaks in your performances. Nothing much better than beautiful music and comedy. :) Thank you, Brody. You make my heart smile.
Amazing, just your piano and your voice. A truly amazing rendition.
Best Elton John aficionado I've ever heard. (and that's since 1971).
Phenomenal talent, that voice is Elton's if I were to close my eyes, piano is perfect!
2:19 gave me chills. Straight chills. It's as if Elton John possessed him.
How would he possess him?
I would have to totally agree! this is one of the very best covers on the whole of youtube!
I get just as much joy from you performing this Brody ,as Elton John himself.
I have listened to this over and over ,and the wife loves Brody's version as well.
20 stars.
Best cover I've ever heard. Elton would be proud!
