The reason why this song sounds “heavy” is because Bernie (who normally doesn’t get involved in how his lyrics should sound musically - he leaves that to Elton’s genius) specifically asked Elton to give this song a Lennon-esque sound. Those violins and other melodic lines are an ode to the Lennon sound. Elton delivered brilliantly, as usual, to bring these lyrics to life in the way perhaps John Lennon would have. After all, this song is about love and Lennon wrote so many songs focusing on love (Imagine, Love, All You Need Is Love, among others). So Bernie wanted to honor that.

I'm sure you would like Elton's 'I Want Love' (2001). Video features Robert Downey Jr and in some ways was a bit of a lifeline to him in re-kickstarting his career again after his various troubles (Elton was able to empathize with RDJ given his own experience of rehab etc). It has a very raw, emotional feeling to it and also sounds a little Beatle-ish in some ways.

From the same album there is a song I think you should really listen to. The song is "Blessed". At this point in his life Elton started wanting children. This song is about his future child. Eventually he and his husband did have two kids via a surrogate mother. Their names are Zachary and Elijah. In any case, this song speaks about the feelings any loving parent would have about their future child.

This amazing song was the lead single from an album which was something of an intended 'comeback' album in the 1990s, and although it was acclaimed (and Grammy Nominated) it didn't quite hit the high chart position it truly deserved. Elton himself was a bit surprised, as he had confidence in the song and so joked at the time that he clearly couldn't anticipate what the public wanted so would be releasing 'How Much is That Doggy in the Window' as his next single lol. That whole Made In England album is filled with great songs in fact. Check out "Blessed", "Man", or "Please" for example. You can't go wrong with any of them.

You should check out 1960s Elton John, before he took the name Elton John. Born Reginald Kenneth Dwight, he was part of a British blues band called Bluesology in the early 60s. He took his current name in 1967, legally changing it in 1972, from the band’s saxophonist Elton Dean and frontman Long John Baldry; hence Elton John! Elton left the group in 67 to go solo. Check out the group’s 1965 song “Come Back Baby”, written and sung by Reg Dwight (now Sir Elton Hercules John).

A powerful song from Bernie and Elton that I loved from the moment I heard it. I don't remember the video of it though. I saw it as a modern version of their "Border Song", one of the first singles released by Elton John. Which I also consider a 'call for us', like Amber said. And did you know that the song "Your Song" was covered by Billy Paul (the one from "Me and Mrs Jones")? He turned it into something completely different.

No English song version is available but super nice!). 2) Veronique Beliveau - House Of Love '89. (This song was produced by Richard Carpenter from The Carpenters which included the whole LP/CD). 3) Gloria Reuben - This Dream Is Real. (This was the theme song from a Canadian TV cop show named "1(800) Missing." Nice song! Enjoy!
