Elton John - Passengers (extended remix 1984)

From the 12-inch vinyl single from 1984. The song, originally from Elton's "Breaking Hearts" album, was a top ten single in England. Along with Elton, lyricist Bernie Taupin, and guitarist Davey Johnstone, songwriting credit is also given to South African Phineas MkHize, because Elton based the song on MkHize's 1960s song "Isonto Lezayoni". Taupin's lyrics became a political statement calling for the desegregation of public transportation in South Africa.

Elton didn't try out world music very often, so this was very welcome. Not a single in the USA, so thanks for the upload!
