I go back to June 1974 and a wonderful track from CARIBOU was released as a single and reached a peak in the charts of no.16 . this song is quintessential Elton John ..... it is a classic of monumental proportions!!! Memories galore....
I have loved Elton musically since I first heard Levon on the radio in 1971. This might be the best performance of his ever. Even better than Empty Sky, even better than Have Mercy On the Criminal, even better than Skyline Pigeon.
I love Elton John music have for years ..this song is special to me and to see the back ground..the sunset and clouds ..the whole concept is so beautiful I truly love the way this song fit the video background, congrats to the one who made this possible ..it is so beautiful. I've played this video 5 times back to back ..

BEST sound and the most wonderful Sundowns I've ever seeen. I promise i've seen a lot of videos. But this one from LoveLeigh1964 is AMAZING. Thanks for sharing
I can't light no more of your darkness All my pictures seem to fade to black and white I'm growing tired and time stands still before me Frozen here on the ladder of my life Too late to save myself from falling I took a chance and changed your way of life But you misread my meaning when I met you Closed the door and left me blinded by the light Don't let the sun go down on me Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free But losing everything is like the sun going down on me I can't find oh the right romantic line But see me once and see the way I feel Don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm But these cuts I have oh they need love to help them heal
youtube, cd and radio, and mp3 compresses music in a way that makes everything blend together in a way that fundamentally changes the way the sound comes across to my ears, I like audiophile vinyl, and needle drops, sacd, dvd-a and blu-ray audio. HDtracks has some okay stuff. I wish this album would have been put out on SACD. You get audio in 2.0 stereo a lot closer to the way it was meant to sound, you get a clearer separation of different instruments and the vocals, and it all has an airy quality that is just absent on cd and radio. This album isn't on any digital hd format except for needle drops, so I remastered a 24bit 192khz needle drop (vinyl rip) and removed the crackle and hiss, and had to apply some gain, and now I'm pretty happy with the results. Certainly sounds a lot different than this version. Still, this album deserves to be on an official hd format! At least the Blu Ray of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road is coming out, and it's supposed to have a brand new remastered stereo version at 24/192 and yet also the old sacd 5.1 version. Al though I consider 5.1 more of a novelty, still, that's what I'm talking about. Too bad this album gets overlooked. They should at least release a Greatest Hits Blu-Ray, geesh!

Thank you Leigh. Beautiful slideshow, sad song.
This song reminds me of happier times, when I was younger, my mom was still alive and of my old neighborhood.
I have loved Elton musically since I first heard Levon on the radio in 1971. This might be the best performance of his ever. Even better than Empty Sky, even better than Have Mercy On the Criminal, even better than Skyline Pigeon.
and I wore out three 45s and three LPs of Daniel and Don't Shoot Me when I was a kid.
OK; maybe Tickin' ranks up there.
Ticking is an incredible performance. Indian Sunset, Burn Down the Mission also come to mind
Oh that heart breaking piano! Transcended!!
This is my favorite song by Elton John....Great Song !!
There's no sun without you.. 💜
Nunca mais vai existir alguém como Elton John!!!
One of the best songs in the history of the universe. I'm an old dude and I love a lot of songs.
He's one of the best ever!!!
One of the very BEST songs by Elton John. He first got my attention when I heard YOUR SONG.
The sweetest memories of my life revolve around these lovely songs
preformed by this great master. Thank you so much for sharing.
A wonderful trip back to the Summer of 1974.
+ftsjr Aho. Cherokee for yes. I agree. :)
Don't we wish
His music is beautiful and he is an extraordinary man. Everytime a song of his comes on the radio I turn it up and drift away
Since I was a young girl this is my Elton John's favorite song! Thank you LoveLeigh1964 for the best sound. Best regards!
Manuela, you are more than welcome. Thanks for your comment and watching!

Hi LoveLeigh19,
What a GORGEOUS video and the absolute PERFECT accompaniment to this song ! THANK YOU ! 😘
+Maria Bari You are more than welcome! :)
Great artist, beautiful melody, great lyrics, sage advice: *_Don't Let Your Son Go Down On Me._*
Sage advice indeed, Sir Elton!
Nice mix of music and video
Beautiful work here, by both Elton and Loveleigh....
Beautiful.... Love the Images..
Tô aqui me embriagando com gin e cachaça mineira ouvindo essas preciosidades de música
Weird how Elton can sing these words as if he'd written them...Bernie and Elton had an amazing musical connection...
RiP Robin.. lucky we have DVDs and such to keep his memory

Mahalo Nui Loa (Thank You Very Much), You Are So Very Welcome 🌄🎑🌅!
This song came on the radio when I was driving home towards the orange sunrise at 5am.
나도 이 노래를 들으면 일몰이 아니라 일출이 생각나는데...
반갑습니다!
여기는 한국입니다.
My alltime favorite E. John song.
Truly Perfect Performance....Rebirthing Song!
what a beautiful way to express your feelings
beautiful video and song ...loved watching and hearing it
Love Leigh I love this video beautiful pictures.
1:08 Too late, my time has come. Sends shivers... Oh wait,wrong song.
don't forget that Carl Wilson's angelic voice is here
I prefer this version of this song over the live version with George Michael.
Starsk25 I agree and I got to see him perform it in concert.
Me too
BEST sound and the most wonderful Sundowns I've ever seeen. I promise i've seen a lot of videos. But this one from LoveLeigh1964 is AMAZING. Thanks for sharing
Jan, you are more than welcome. Thanks for your comment and watching!
Beautiful~!!!
I can't light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
I can't find oh the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way I feel
Don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have oh they need love to help them heal
+Juan Perez I have to think about it... and get back to you..
Raven Meadows It's "no more Augie Dogness"
Really great song & memories.
Wonderful.

Just Beautiful how you did this.
Probably the most Beatle-esque song in the John/Taupin collection.
LOVED THE PICS YOU USED THEY WERE BEAUTIFUL :)
I comes from my spirit it's how I'm feeling at the time I play these songs it's very important to me and all of you please listen to these songs
nice job, love the photos....
Amazing video for one of my favorite songs. Been Elton fan since 70. He is one of the best. I made an Elton Cagoule video.
Love it! Great job!
Your videos are always quite LoveLeigh.
GOOD JOB !!
Tava ouvindo um cover que a minha cantora favorita fez dessa canção ao vivo a cantora é vanessa carlton ela da 1.000 a zero nesta do elton john
Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me
Elton John
Produced by Gus Dudgeon
Album: Caribou
[Verse 1]
I can't light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I'm growin' tired, and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
[Verse 2]
Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meanin' when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
[Chorus]
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losin' everything is like the sun goin' down on me
[Verse 3]
I can't find, oh, the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way I feel
Don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have, oh, they need love to help them heal
[Chorus]
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losin' everything is like the sun goin' down on me
[Chorus]
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free, yeah
But losin' everything is like the sun goin' down on me
Written-By - Elton John & Bernie Taupin

beautiful words
Great song
I like the background vocals....
Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me,,,,,Keep it Turned on!
The drum fills in this song inspired November Rain's. In fact, they're nearly the same fills.
great musician
1988 to 2014 is to short a innings….
Great :)
needed this video today. nice job
