I got his first US Album when I was young as gift. I was told he was going to be a star. He was right. Very talented for making music.

Definitely one of my most favorite old-time songs of all time. Its in my top 100 favorites
I can barely keep myself from tearing up during the chorus.
I love ELtonJohn especially the one he says I hope u don't mind I hope u don't mind that i put some new words
Amazing song.......
Love this song. I remember it was the theme. Song for America's greatest hero with William katt.

Oh my god. I remember my parents singing a terribly off-key version of this when I was little. So many memories. <3
Why wasn't this in armageton
Great song.

Rocket Man is one of my favorite Elton John songs. When it came out in 1972 on Honky Chateau it really affected people in a somewhat emotional way. Today it's sort of considered just another classic rock song from the past.

What an amazing combination -- Elton John and Bernie Taupin.
Burnin down a fuse up here alone, one of those often misunderstoo d lyrics.
One of the best concerts I've seen 95' spectrum Philadelphia , just really sucked my best friend got killed in front of my house the same night, a night I will never forget.
Life throws us curve balls of crap sometimes ~> I know this all to well ~> but when you come back with your rally cap on and hit that grand slam ..~> sliding into home base makes the feeling of satisfaction that much sweeter ..! ;) :) (I've got my rally cap on for ya ;)..)
Aaaaaaw Nero lover ~> its happened to ALL of us..! Trust me when I say ~> everything happens for a reason and though it may me really hard to see or even fathom that statement being true but .. it does get easier and a few months from now when you've found that someone that fate had in store for you and are truly happy and in love again you'll look back and say “ya know I'm so glad for that breakup because if it hadnt had happened I wouldn't have had this chance of TRUE love and happiness..! ! ”
Have u ever had someone break up with u but u can't get over them well that happened to me and I don't know what to do she what's me out of her life but I don't what her out of mine I'm so lost someone help
wondering if this is a favorite at Nasa
i'm a rocket maaaaaaaaaan
