Elton John - Elton's Song

‘Elton's Song’ first appeared on the 1981 album, 'The Fox'. Tom Robinson's lyrics deal frankly with a gay teenage crush on another boy. The music is comparatively stark with the arrangement consisting of no more than piano, voice and string synthesizers. This previously unreleased video appeared on the video album for 'The Fox' but was never shown on TV as its theme caused considerable controversy at the time.
Elton's Song features on the upcoming Elton: Jewel Box, out November 13th. Pre-order here: https://EltonJohn.lnk.to/JewelBoxHero
