I like the arrangement of this song - perfectly arranged to emphasize the lyrics.

One of my favourite Elton songs. He's so amazing. His voice is so unique that nobody else can sound like him.

Another great non-album-B-side by Elton John. Also available on some copies of the "I'm Still Standing" single.

Actually recorded in 1979, during the "21 at 33/Fox" sessions. The verse melody's a bit awkward, but it's still a cool track.

@sheebaridgeback Most of Elton's b-sides were that way.... Hey Papa Legba, Piano Version of Skyline Pigeon, Conquer The Sun.......

This song should have been included on an album and released as a single - it's one of Elton's best.

Not sure about the UK, but in Australia "Tortured" was the BSide of " I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues ". It certainly was a nice track, too good to be a BSide.

As great as he still is, at one point he was really in league of his own. I think he can start a resurgence if he does something for his health, loses all the weight, removes the wig, and worked hard again on albums -- with a great producer of pop song craft. Tony Bennett did it and is as good ever. I think EJ can do it too.

His undeniable talent aside, I'm of the opinion that a lot of his material on albums from 1986 up to and not including "Songs From the West Coast" all tend to sound vaguely similar. They're certainly "good" songs, but nothing about them is particularly remarkable and they all tend to come off as sounding like formulaic generic "late Elton John" material. He's made an earnest attempt at recapturing the magic of late, but there's no denying his salad days are behind him.
