@@stacycampbell1145 I agree. I mean he's singing Elton's sing right in front of him, and not even as backing. He's doing the main vocals that's huge. Gotta have some respect for him
That's just not true, is it? Everyone who has won it has had a great voice, just like Tarron, so how does that mean he has more musical talent than them?
lol this statement is NOT even close. Put all those winners and this guy in a competition, just "music talent" is the criteria. You can't see who it is. He wouldn't even come close.
Thank the heavens we didn't lose Sir Elton John to the drugs and booze, we would have missed out on so much. 28 years sober, and finally loved the way he always wanted.
Growing up with an abusive dad I wished Elton John was my father, especially once I came out to my parents and my dad threw me out after breaking my nose. All I had when I left was my car, my savings, and an Elton CD. His music kept me going through the years.
I am so sorry that this happened to you. I have a friend who had a similar experience with his family. He now lives in Thailand and loves it there. I think that he may never return to UK. It is sad that there are people out there who can't or won't accept anything that is out of the ordinary. I hope that you are living your best life and continue to enjoy Elton's music and don't let life get you down!!! :D
Yvonne Iwona D. Rami’s acting was phenomenal even Brian May said sometimes he felt like Freddie was there the only thing was he didn’t really sing the songs
Damn. Every time Taron finishes a line, he looks like he's holding back his tears with all his might. I sure as shit couldn't lol. Dude can actually sing though! Wow
Teresa Sá Machado yeah I’m struggling not to cry so I can’t imagine what he’s feeling. My wife and I just watched rocketman... what a movie. What a legend
Elton John to Taron: “Don’t copy my voice when singing my songs.” Elton John: “Nobody could sing my songs better than Taron.” Just goes to show how much respect and trust he had in Taron.
@@anzelmiller5174 on the cd if you read the cover it says he left the songs and everything up to Taron and Gilles I think his name was as he had full trust and did not want to micro-manage. Hold on 2 secs. Giles Martin who "like his dad is brilliant".
@Eagle1 you're trying to make your personal opinion a fact. It's not. There is no justification for being so plain rude - you can state your view without putting someone down like that.
I'd be honored if some Elton John fans would give a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of LEVON and ROCKET MAN on my YT channel in tribute to the master of 20th century performance & composition. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and peace.
Elton was in the second kingsman film Taron sung I'm still standing in Sing Now he's playing Elton If you don't believe they're drawn together by something, you are wrong
I'm not even a huge Elton fan and even I'd be emotional if the man himself was playing the piano along to me singing one of his best songs. Would probably fully burst out crying when he joined in singing. Best karaoke experience ever!
I feel like Elton is so happy he found someone to pass his work to. Elton's voice is probably so spent that he must feel hyped after hearing Tharon sing like him.
The young version, sounds almost like the original young version. Surely talented, and not to mention the guts this guy has to sing in front of such a legend. Respect, and infinite kudos.
Unfortunately Elton sings the vocals in the lower register harmony these days. Only a handful of artists still sing in original keys & sound great-Steven Tyler & Bryan Adams to name a few. Bon Jovi also voice is not what it once was by still a great act to see live.
I'd be honored if some Elton John fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of LEVON and ROCKET MAN on my YT channel in tribute to the master of 20th century performance & composition. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and peace.
Taron Egertron is going to be a household name after "Rocketman" comes out. I'm not an obsessive Elton fan, but I'm dying to see this film. It looks like he knocked it out of the park with his performance. If this live clip is any indication, we're going to see something phenomenal.
@@oxheymackem I would mostly agree. What I meant is that after this people who have never seen Kingsman, Robin Hood, etc., will know who Taron is. I'm pretty sure a large portion of the U.S. was unaware of Rami Malek until Bohemian Rhapsody came out. Now he's everywhere.
I doubt it...he considers himself Welsh. Compared to English or Irish actors...The American film industry does nowhere near as much promotion on the films they (Welsh) are included in.
How fucking insane for him man. He lands his first audition for kingsman and next thing he knows he gets the honor to preform a duet with Elton John. I love this
I actually got legit goosebumps when Elton joined in. Taron is such a humble kid, but he is a seriously talented lad, and to play Elton just like Rami taking on Freddie . That takes absolute balls of steel.. Us Brits of a certain age are a bit precious about this... Jesus..........who gets to play the part of god.....sorry I meant David Bowie... Now that would be something..
“It’s funny how life turns out,isn’t it?” You can say that again, Taron! You sang an Elton John song to get into drama school, then sang another song as a gorilla, then rescued from Elton John from drug dealers and robotic dogs, and you just got a Golden Globe for being Elton John!
@Hitler The Academy, traditionally, forgets about the films early in the year and focusses on the films coming out as Oscar bait at the end of the year.
I absolutely love that you can see Taron cannot believe that he's actually onstage singing with Elton John AND playing him in a movie, and that Elton is so wowed by his performance!
Taron has a beautiful voice. Great actor and just amazing person. He does this justice and to sing with Elton John's. What an honour. I love how Elton supports artists like this.
*I remember a few years back when there was one video of Taron singing in an interview and only because Hugh Jackman begged him to. He hated being put on the spot. Look at him now!* ❤
Seeing Taron singing with Elton is the best part of my day. Just look at how he looked at Elton. How honored it is to have your favorite artist felling proud of you covering his song.
Taron sounds just enough like Elton to pull it off, but distinct enough to be a good singer in his own right.(If you didn’t know he played Elton, you wouldn’t guess it, but if you did know, you could see it.)
Taron’s career will be defined by Elton first Elton’s in Kingsman: The Golden Circle, then he sings I’m Still Standing in Sing and now he’s playing Elton in Rocketman
This is so heartwarming... Elton looks so proud, and Taron sings so beautifully and with such passion. He must be so honored. This really brought a smile to my face, it's wondeful!
I know right!? Pisses me off when people can watch this, listen to this, EXPERIENCE this and still say "but Tarons singing sucks" There's the Sir Elton John playing and singing backup to the man! Goddamn lol.
I thought the movie had issues with pacing and storytelling in the scenes. BUT, I can honestly say Taron Egertons portrayal of Elton is one of my favorite of all times. His performance made that movie for me. Even more so than Rami Maleks performance. And the fact the he sang all of Eltons music, God. Taron is easily the most underrated actors right now.
Muscle memory is a crazy thing. I played piano growing up and once I knew how to play a song. I could play it with my eyes closed. Because this was in the last few years… I can’t imagine how many times he’s played this song.
@@Talisman09 strange comment indeed. They decided not to make an impersonation. That is normally done in such movies, whether or not the artist is alive and able to be ego. Having a bad day?
@@livb6945 I can't remember if I was having a bad day, that was 9 months ago. She was talking about the singing in this video, in the film he did do an impersonation
Sir Elton's impeccable piano playing comes as no surprise, genius is genius after all... but I'm shocked at and delighted by Taron Egerton's voice! What a lovely duet!! ❤
Taron's voice chokes me up. He is such a great singer. And when Elton started singing I started tearing up. I don't know why but this makes me so happy. Elton picked the right person to sing all of the songs in Rocketman and the right character to play as himself. Thank you Elton and thank you Taron. I will definitely love Rocketman!!!
Boats n Hoes 1. He sings well. 2. As a vocalist at a very respected state university myself, I think you’ll find I know a thing or two about technique and artistry. Taron’s voice sits comfortably and his tone is clean and resonant. He knows when to pour on the power and when to hold back. But yes, please do continue to sell me on how he “doesn’t sing good”.
Boats n Hoes Irrelevant. Just because his range isn’t the size of a country mile doesn’t mean he’s not a good singer. Or all you calling all baritones bad singers?
Boats n Hoes hey guess what? Elton said he wouldn’t have anyone else sing the songs in the movie because he was so blown away by Taron. So, as someone who is also a vocalist and was trained. He is amazing and it’s hard to do what he does. He might not be perfect and have a different style but Elton is so impressed by him sooo thank you, next.
lottiebelottie there were SOOOO many great performances in 2019, it’s actually crazy. I see it as a good thing, just wish he was nominated for a Golden Globe at the very least. His performance was very transformative and Taron did a beautiful job portraying the legendary Elton John with such gravitas and respect.
Taron Egerton acted *so* convincingly. Also very courageous to sing songs the whole world knows. But with his voice.... just a great movie! All actors were brilliant!
Never really listens to Elton John until I saw rocketman, and lord this makes me emotional watching them sing together. You can just see the emotion in Elton and how proud he is of Taron
I think both Taron and Rami did amazing jobs talking on the roles of Elton and Freddie. Such incredible talent! Edit: thank you for all the likes! But please don’t reply to this comment about how Taron did a better job and why, cause you’re just gonna be biased and you don’t know Rami (Bohemian Rhapsody) s whole Story . Thank you 😊
I was smiling ear to ear through this whole clip, but the view of the piano keys through Elton's glasses at around 3:30 just added to that even more 😍🎹🎼😁
I love Taron's expressions. Who can say that they had the opportunity to sing Tiny Dancer with THE Sir Elton John?! You can see that Taron himself is in a state of pure bliss. Such an incredible experience. And an honor. The way Elton watched him, you can see he is proud. Taron, you have done a PHENOMENAL job. The level of respect between the two of these men is clear. Cģongratulations Taron, I cannot wait to watch Rocketman. It has been marked on my calendar for months now.
Well everyone that can talk can sing. It is if other people think it is good or not. Taron Egerton is not a good singer but better than some. It is subjective, meaning you might like it, but others won't.
How very generous to share his life and the stage. Indeed, how wonderful life is, while you're in the world. Thank you, Sir Elton, for all the memories.
Elton John is just like "YOU'RE DOING GREAT SWEETIE"
KEEP ON GOING HONIE! lol
your profile picture made me think Elton was yelling it like that

Yep... to true
LordGandor3 so harsh. I think he was super nervous.
@@stacycampbell1145 I agree. I mean he's singing Elton's sing right in front of him, and not even as backing. He's doing the main vocals that's huge. Gotta have some respect for him

Reading this comment, I know for a fact you watched rocket man. Amen

He looks more like a proud grandmother
Agreed
Right?!
The lil' grin Elton would give Taron like "You're doing great honey 💖"
No dought it's the son Elton never had, I think a new Star is Born!!

He actually started his career as a piano player in other bands before singing
I didn't forget lol
Just watching this and was thinking the same. 😮
I never forgot.....he is an awesome talent.

Carlos Taylor only reason Rami didn’t sing for Boh Rhap was because Freddie is to damn good to imitate
Hold now we still have Joaquin Phoenix for joker
In 1:40 i love how elton is making funny faces in someone’s camera without even looking at the piano 😂😂 love this man
It's so wholesome 😍
We love Elton John so much he’s actually a beautiful human
Muscle memory is a crazy thing. I played piano growing up and once I knew how to play a song. I could play it with my eyes closed.
Because this was in the last few years… I can’t imagine how many times he’s played this song.
Such character😁
i love his smile, looks very kind and happy. i love him
I absolutely adore this duo, Taron is such a perfect guy to play Elton John in rocketman!
Would pay to go to a taron concert. He’s better than 90% of modern full time artists
By far.
I would laugh if Taron and Bradley made a Tour together like : we were actors but now surprise we are singers and we made a band
Idk if you knew this but, Elton John wrote this song
@@MikelangeloTH-cam Idk if you knew this but, Bernie Taupin wrote this song
Sam Williams Only Brendon Urie has him beat.
1:42 When Taron Egerton said piano man I almost cried!
Me too!!
I actually did
I love how Elton John just let's taron sing it his way and not try to make him sound like him
you love the way elton john is not an egomaniac?
He told him to not sound like him for the movie, he wanted him to sound like him
@@Talisman09 strange comment indeed. They decided not to make an impersonation. That is normally done in such movies, whether or not the artist is alive and able to be ego. Having a bad day?
@@livb6945 I can't remember if I was having a bad day, that was 9 months ago.
She was talking about the singing in this video, in the film he did do an impersonation
Sir Elton's impeccable piano playing comes as no surprise, genius is genius after all... but I'm shocked at and delighted by Taron Egerton's voice! What a lovely duet!! ❤

Dude, something about seeing Elton John makes me so happy. He just looks so happy, and it makes me happy. Like a puppy.
Taron's voice chokes me up. He is such a great singer. And when Elton started singing I started tearing up. I don't know why but this makes me so happy. Elton picked the right person to sing all of the songs in Rocketman and the right character to play as himself. Thank you Elton and thank you Taron. I will definitely love Rocketman!!!
Doc: "You have less than 5 minutes to live."
Me:
We are simple people😭👌💗💘😂
I would watch this before I die.
Safe!!
2:28 why isn’t anyone talking about thisss 😍🥺
omg YES!!!
It’s so stunning
I'm literally bursting with wholesomeness right now
It's beautiful 🥹
To anyone who had doubts about Taron in Rocketman, let me help you pick your jaw up off the floor.
Boats n Hoes 1. He sings well.
2. As a vocalist at a very respected state university myself, I think you’ll find I know a thing or two about technique and artistry. Taron’s voice sits comfortably and his tone is clean and resonant. He knows when to pour on the power and when to hold back. But yes, please do continue to sell me on how he “doesn’t sing good”.
Boats n Hoes Irrelevant. Just because his range isn’t the size of a country mile doesn’t mean he’s not a good singer. Or all you calling all baritones bad singers?
Boats n Hoes hey guess what? Elton said he wouldn’t have anyone else sing the songs in the movie because he was so blown away by Taron. So, as someone who is also a vocalist and was trained. He is amazing and it’s hard to do what he does. He might not be perfect and have a different style but Elton is so impressed by him sooo thank you, next.
Boats n Hoes Elton is happily married with kids. Try again.
Boats n Hoes Are you listening to yourself? He’s settled. He’s not trying to get to Taron. Credibility.
Boy, you really made me chuckle.
Wow Taron is amazing! The man on the piano is pretty good too
Savannah Heard man on the piano? That’s Elton John
Benz i think that’s the joke
@@benz7022 r/wooosh
This is my favorite live performance of Taron. His voice is so beautiful ❤️
The sparkling piano part!!! The sparkling SUIT!!! Elton!! Taron!!!! I'm crying and in love with all of it!!!!!!
How the bloody hell did he miss out on an Oscar Nomination....? 🙄
lottiebelottie there were SOOOO many great performances in 2019, it’s actually crazy. I see it as a good thing, just wish he was nominated for a Golden Globe at the very least. His performance was very transformative and Taron did a beautiful job portraying the legendary Elton John with such gravitas and respect.
@@aidanproko he won a Golden Globe actually. 😎😎😎
obviously the academy sucks nowadays
They get the Oscar of the best original song that's already something
Ikr it’s cuz by the time films are nominated for oscars, ones from early in the year are forgotten entirely :(
Taron was spectacular in the film. Brilliant, brilliant, Oscar worthy.
Genuine goosebumps ... and tears ... when Elton joined in on the vocals. Just superb from both guys.
Taron Egerton acted *so* convincingly. Also very courageous to sing songs the whole world knows. But with his voice.... just a great movie! All actors were brilliant!
Taron looked like he was gonna cry at the start! I would too honestly, couldn't imagine the feeling of signing to Elton John
Never really listens to Elton John until I saw rocketman, and lord this makes me emotional watching them sing together. You can just see the emotion in Elton and how proud he is of Taron
And the millions of dollars no doubt
Stunning performance…I absolutely love this song.
I would swear that he was honestly Elton’s son. Taron was born for this 🥰
I think both Taron and Rami did amazing jobs talking on the roles of Elton and Freddie. Such incredible talent!
Edit: thank you for all the likes! But please don’t reply to this comment about how Taron did a better job and why, cause you’re just gonna be biased and you don’t know Rami (Bohemian Rhapsody) s whole Story . Thank you 😊
Rogerina Taylor but the movie "rocketman" is soooo much better
yes
Ya but taron actually sang & they used his voice.
@@bekm505 Rami actually sang as well, and they merged his voice with Freddie's and another singer
Jonathan Langevin yeah, I was gonna say that
It’s like watching a Young and Old Version of Elton John at the same time ..
when the Old Elton Collaborates with the Young Elton..
It's true m
I was smiling ear to ear through this whole clip, but the view of the piano keys through Elton's glasses at around 3:30 just added to that even more 😍🎹🎼😁
I love Taron's expressions. Who can say that they had the opportunity to sing Tiny Dancer with THE Sir Elton John?!
You can see that Taron himself is in a state of pure bliss. Such an incredible experience. And an honor. The way Elton watched him, you can see he is proud. Taron, you have done a PHENOMENAL job. The level of respect between the two of these men is clear. Cģongratulations Taron, I cannot wait to watch Rocketman. It has been marked on my calendar for months now.
sir elton john's sparkly suit is brighter than my future
Mood
Coal shines brighter than my future
WOOOOW. Who knew? Eggsy can SING 😲🤗🥰👍😎😎
Was he that good? Not for me
Kind of. I don’t mean to be mean, he had a lot of guts to clearly not be a professional singer and go up there and belt it out.
Well everyone that can talk can sing. It is if other people think it is good or not. Taron Egerton is not a good singer but better than some. It is subjective, meaning you might like it, but others won't.
Yeah he killed this! Great voice!
Pretty average for the average person, pretty below average for people who actually sing, even recreationally.
i adore that Elton is literally shining✨
Just saw "Rocketman" for the second time. Rediscovering the genius of Elton John is a very special thing indeed.
My sentiments exactly
So beautiful, just the way Taron looks at Elton. Absolutely beautiful!
Can never hear this song without thinking
'Hold me close young Tony Danza'
Thanks Phoebe and Friends.
ikr?
And I am sure Elton would not have minded being held close by Tony Danza
How very generous to share his life and the stage. Indeed, how wonderful life is, while you're in the world.
Thank you, Sir Elton, for all the memories.
