New #EltonLIVE videos available on YouTube

Live versions of Border Song, Funeral For a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding and Can You Feel the Love Tonight have been added to Elton’s YouTube channel for the first time.

Border Song is taken from Elton John in Concert, recorded for the BBC on May 22nd, 1970. The first single from Elton John’s 1970 eponymous LP, it was covered by a number of artists early on with none more exhilarating than Aretha Franklin. “Bernie and I were so dumbfounded and excited beyond words,” Elton revealed upon hearing the news. “She was such an idol of mine then, let alone throughout the years, so for her to have covered this song meant so much to us at that early stage of our career.”

The opening opus from Elton’s Goodbye Yellow Brick Road album, Funeral For A Friend and Love Lies Bleeding were written separately but recorded together. The pair of songs have often been used as a show opener on Elton’s tours and serve as a dramatic mid-way point during the current Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour. This video is taken from the One Night Only performance at Madison Square Garden in October 2000, featuring the song’s original drummer (Nigel Olsson) and guitarist (Davey Johnstone).

Can You Feel The Love Tonight from Disney’s animated feature ‘The Lion King’ was originally released in 1994. It reached #1 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary charts and went on to win Elton and lyricist Sir Tim Rice an Oscar for Best Original Song. This clip is taken from Elton’s 1998 The Big Picture tour, at the Nashville Arena.
