And I think it’s gonna be a long long time
‘Till touch down brings me round again to find
I’m not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I’m a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone.
Taken from the song Rocket Man by Elton John from his studio album Honky Château (1972), which is the title to the upcoming biopic of the phenomenally talented English musician. I’ve also posted Can you Feel the Love Tonight, which is my favourite. Feel free to share yours.
Had the honor of seeing him in his farewell tour a few months ago and Sir did not disappoint! Looking forward to the film!
He was born with music in his soul. Such a talent. I’m glad you had such a good time. I’m hoping the film is a good one. Bohemian Rhapsody was a really enjoyable film and the director was involved in both.
Burning out his fuse up here alone – I could never make out that line and I eventually had to look up the lyrics. 😜
Indeed. When that’s the case it’s nearly always sex or drugs. And Bill Hicks would do a great skit on that.
Love this song!
Yeah, no surprise it was the title used for the film. A classic.
One of his best
For sure. He’s had quite some career. This was from an album that was the first of seven in a row US chart toppers.
Wonderful words from a great song!
Indeed. And so talented. He’s connected with so many people over such a long period of time.
Makes
Me smile 😀
A wonderful song. I’m hoping the film will do his life justice. He’s had an eventful one for sure.
I agree! He’s magical to listen to 😊
