"Your Song" is a ballad composed and performed by English musician Elton John with lyrics by his longtime collaborator Bernie Taupin. It originally appeared on John's self-titled second album in 1970.

The song was released in the United States in October 1970 as the B-side to "Take Me to the Pilot". Both received airplay, but "Your Song" was preferred by disc jockeys and replaced "Take Me to the Pilot" as the A-side, eventually making the top ten on both the UK and US charts.

In 1998, "Your Song" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.[1] In 2004 the song was placed at number 137 on Rolling Stone's list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time".

A demo version was included on John's 1990 box set album To Be Continued.[2] The song has been covered by a number of artists, including Ellie Goulding, whose version reached number two on the UK Singles Chart in late 2010.

A friend shared your"Jingle Bells" video on Facebook recently. You can can count me as a new fan, Tony. I have always been a big fan of the great "old timers" (Frank, Tony, etc). You're in their club, Tony. When you play Vegas, remember me. I want front row seats :-) .........Frank R.

Awesome cover! Just a suggestion: I only found you in the suggested videos, but not in organic search results. I recommend adding the keyword "your song cover" to your keywords. Good luck!

Hi Tony, great performance! Did you have use EQ on the KMS 105 to get rid of some low end when singing that close or that's your voice with any roll off of the low end? Thanks, great job :)

Tony I love you, your musicianship, voice - playing. I think the whole world should here you, you are a gem. I do not give praise lightly, you are really good. I'd like the whole world to hear you. When this happens - please remain humble and the same good natured person you are, and do not let the fame change you.
