@@masterkeyz959 This is phenomenal! I knew at 4:01 that the piano portion of this must be from Edinburgh, 1976. It's amazing how many extra notes and fills Elton plays live. I've figured out some on my own, but this really helps to visualize Elton's mastery (AND YOURS!). Bravo. Keep these coming. I'd love to see the LP version of Tiny Dancer or Rocket Man done this way (as much as I try to play the intro and other parts of Tiny Dancer on my own, when I hear the actual song it seem like I'm only playing half the notes).
This is probably my favorite Elton John song. And you played this like you were in the recording sessions. You can feel the emotion and tension throughout the song. Excellent job! Cheers!
Thanks so much...I’m glad you enjoyed my playing! I’ve always loved Elton John’s music... and this is one of my favorite Elton songs too. I’ll be aiming to do at least one classic Elton John song like this every month from now on, so stay tuned!
Amazing! You’re such a unique TH-camr covering his best live performances such as this cover from his 1976 Edinburgh gig, another amazing song from that show would be Daniel as it was also one of his best performances of that song
MAMODMAN95 Thanks for your kind comment - I’ll do a cover of Daniel for you and thanks for watching this channel! Please feel free to keep the requests coming anytime!
Cheers Bill, it’s one of my favourite Elton songs too! (Someday I’d like to also do a cover of Ticking... that’s another beautiful vintage Elton classic!)
Just stumbled across this. It’s absolutely amazing/beautiful/gorgeous (feel free to pick your favorite adjective). Maybe in my next life I’ll play like this…thanks!
Thanks so much, I’m glad you enjoyed this. Someone Saved My Life Tonight is one of my favourite Elton John songs to play and there will be more very special vintage Elton classics like this coming soon, so stay tuned!
Thanks, Carol Dickson-Carr - I’m glad you enjoyed this video. I’ve loved playing Elton John since I was a kid back in the 80’s. If you have any song requests please feel free to ask anytime. (We also sell high quality rare sheet music!)
That was definitely an aspiration - to have access to a piano as a kid. If you teach virtually, I would love to take some lessons. And Elton John was one of my favorites since I first heard Philadelphia Freedom in 1975! I purchased the Musicnotes version of Someone Saved My Life after watching you play it that day, but the arrangement I got was not nearly as good as what you did (but more my speed in terms of ability 🤣).
Thanks a million times for this, this live is one of my favourite from Elton. May I ask if you can do "Think I gonna kill myself " from the same show please ? Your work is stunning
Thanks so much for your lovely comment and I’m glad you enjoy my playing! I intend to record more classic Elton John songs this year, so will definitely add your request to the list as it’s a great song and should be fun to try!
I still don't understand how anyone can learn from this technique with these "falling" notes. I get distracted by the lights coming down and I don't get a chance to look at the position of the fingers with the cords and other notes. I would rather have someone explain the chords but the aerial view is great.
This was a request from Mahan Ae, I hope we did you Proud Mahan!
Can you please do more by Elton John in this kind of tutorial please?
This is nearly identical to his edinburgh 1976 live solo performance! magical!
Glad you liked it Mahan! (That was what this performance was based on)

What about also saying your favourite Bernice tauplin song
I so enjoyed that. Great job. Hard to believe this song is 45 years old. This has got to be Bernie's best lyric.
Please do more Elton John covers
Absolutely, more coming!
Absolutely flipping brilliant!
Thanks so much!!
Sir Elton John is really really a great artist. This cover piano is very good! Congratulations!!
This was superb. Just the piano and vocals? Magic. I hope you do more like this! Maybe Elton John's "Empty Garden"? Perhaps also some Supertramp?

Master Keyz that would be amazing! Can’t wait to see it thanks
Such a moving performance. My all time favorite Elton John song. Thank you so much for sharing.
Cheers Bill, it’s one of my favourite Elton songs too! (Someday I’d like to also do a cover of Ticking... that’s another beautiful vintage Elton classic!)
The likeness between your voice and Elton's is uncanny!
It’s Elton singing
This is brilliant, thank you
astonishing! every single note on their place! U r the greatest!
Thanks so much, Peter cache - I’m glad you enjoyed this video! If you have any requests please let me know!
Wow! No Words !
Really groovy and chord-y! Nice addition of the vocals too! Hope you don't have too much problems with copyright
hopefully it should be sorted soon, thanks!

One of my favorite artists and one of my favorite TH-camrs! Sounds great!
This made my evening. Thank you! :)

Very good
simply wow!! stunning!
Ohh gush, perfect cover! Maybe Levon by Elton next? ;))))
Incredibly excellent! Can you please do Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John? And if it’s possible, with piano chords and isolated vocals.
KILLER!
Deserves more views! Good cover mate
Thanks Nico, maybe one day the channel will be more well known!
Thanks a million for this! I really appriciate it, keep up the good content! cheers
you're most welcome!
THANK YOu for not making this a 'singalong'!!!
Great job,great stuff.
Thanks Robert, this was a fun one to work on.
Another excellent EJ piano cover.
You should really consider doing "Levon", you're the one who can do it justice .
Thanks Lorenze, it's on the list ;-)
Good job
Cheers, Robert!
Wow
Nice one
Thanks a million times for this, this live is one of my favourite from Elton.
May I ask if you can do "Think I gonna kill myself " from the same show please ?

@@masterkeyz959 Thanks truly sir, you're the one that can make justice to this solo
Maybe you could try Pinball Wizard?
Great suggestion, Love the Who!
Where'd you get the picture of Elton in the background?
Why did you skip the solo at the end?

yeah the lights are just for show Charles, the sheet music we try to offer with each video are the main way to learn, all the best!
