I cry too when I see this. Leons music always moves my heart. Now I´m lucky to have seen him in shows, last year and this year. Never could dream of that. I think all this started when Elton was in a TV show with Elvis Costello, that I saw some years ago. Wow, Elton and I have the same idol.

It is no wonder why I had to buy this album. Not to hold on to a piece of my youth, but to experience new music from a very special collaboration of oldies and goodies.

Isn't it wonderful when someone rich and successful has such a huge heart?? Most such people do not. Elton doesn't take his $$ or success for granted and has helped a lot of people try to find themselves or overcome their demons or just be reminded that they're loved. Not always appreciated, to be sure. But that's OK. And now because of Elton, I'm reading up on Leon Russell. Another fascinating human being.

nice song but maybe unconsciously repeating In the Arms of an Angel of Sarah McLaughlin...it sounds like it to me, not only in the title of the song but even the melody has ressemblance.

I bought this CD at an Elton John concert in 2011 and miraculously i left at the end of the show with Elton having signed it for me. I love that this is the CD he signed for me because this album came out of Elton’s gratitude to, and love for, Leon.

What an amazing man he was so talented with a birth defect that he overcame! I am surprised at the choice of song because I read several places where Elton John doesn't believe in God and he says awful things about Jesus but, I guess Leon knew the truth so he wrote the truth to his friend I hope someday Elton will accept it.

I can't find anything about Elton's "awful" things about Jesus. The only thing I see is Elton saying Jesus "being an intelligent amazing and compassionate" man would support gay marriage. Is that so awful? Maybe trust that people are generally good and not everything you read. ;)

I started listening to Leon back in the early 70's, I always loved him. I had no idea he had just fallen into a lonely position in life. I'm so happy Elton got back in touch with Leon and gave him what seemed to be a reason to live. I only wish it had happened sooner, but at least it happened. RIP with the Angels Leon. And thank you Elton for giving Leon that bit of feeling appreciated. You have a heart of gold. You had me in tears watching your reaction to this song!

What's goin' on with Leon Russell these days? He's one of a kind. I want Leon to know that Jesus is comin' again. It's been nearly 2,000 years since Jesus was last here, and I really want Leon to know that. Pass the word, will somebody? It's really important that Leon know this - very important for Leon. Ok? Pass the word! I don't need to meet Leon! I just really want Leon to know this! Ok? Somebody, please tell Leon for me! Please! Please! Please! Leon should know! Leon loves Jesus, and Jesus loves Leon! Please tell Leon for me! Ok? Ok? Ok?

Michael Gogan No disrespect taken. It was the love of Jesus for Leon that flowed and flows from and through Elton John. Few there are, who truly understand. The Holy Spirit of God has been working mightily through musicians, artists, and entertainers for a very, very long time. They aren't gods, just fellow sinners. God works through us all. Angels are different, they are real. I have only recently been made aware of that, and have encountered two during the past 6 months. Information overload for you, no doubt. Think about it, friend.

Not an overload at all. We each have our own beliefs and we should be free to express them as we see fit. I an less inclined to have the faith in Jesus that you have, that's all. I'm happy for you to follow your own path.

Michael Gogan We each must follow our hearts. I respect your freedom. I fought for it and insist you live free. Now Jesus is English for Iesou, His true name. We were chatting about this, and I want to point out that He is not the same as the religion. In fact, He's in many ways the opposite. Now, He stood before the Jews, who were accusing Him of violating the law that His Father written. They were ignoring the prophesies about Him contained within the scriptures. He had just healed a man who'd been severely crippled for 38 years. Finally, frustrated, He told them to search the scriptures because they testify of Him. He was standing in front of them when He said it. He was condemning them on the spot. I don't know how many churches today quote that very scripture to justify their existence and practices. He condemned them with it to their faces. What the fuck is that? Anyway, we were just chatting, and He said that on the Day of Judgment, He will say to them, "Fuck religion! I never knew you!" And off to the lake of fire and brimstone they will go. I just want to tell you the difference. I will say no more to you about it! I respect your decision, and so does He. Your chances on the Day of Judgment are far, far better than the hypocrites' who use His name. He is just and merciful, and very, very forgiving. God bless you, my friend.
