It is one of my favorite music albums, I consider it as one of the best albums of Elton John, Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy. From the opening track we are hooked with fantastic musical craft and the title track is a great opener to give you a feel of whats about to come with great guitar work, clear orchestration and melody that is unlike most title tracks of albums which tend to be disappointing and stuck in as an after thought. This album plays like an album should do - you put it on and you listen for 50 minutes letting your mind wander and you ears be entertained with all types of instruments and acoustic accompaniments washing over you, so that after you have played it, you could just put it back on again - its not a boring album! Equally strong, but never the same kind of hit - We all fall in love sometimes, also deserves a mention as another track that you couldn't imagine being song by any-one else.

It deserves the attention and consideration of a classic piece of work and if you can do that, you will really appreciate how good it is. The album is also christened with one of Elton's biggest hits - Someone saved my life tonight which in its original form is a beautifully tempo'd track and shines well as part of the compilation. My recommendation is buy it in vinyl format as its worth the money just to look at the cover, but whatever your chosen listening mode is - but please put the time aside to listen to it.
Moving on there is evidence of Bernie's lyrical genius in Bitter Fingers - "its hard to write a song with bitter fingers, so much to prove to few to tell you why, those old die-hards in Denmark street start laughing at the keyboard players hollow-haunted eyes" and the Tower or Babel "see the letches crawl, with the call girls under the table, watch em dig their graves, cause jesus don't save the guys in the tower of babel". They then go on to absolutely deliver a proper rock classic thumper - Meal Ticket - which if it doesn't get your foot tapping and playing the air drums - nothing will!
