sehr gut
******
...wunderschön...
******
Ein Meisterwerk des Manns aus Watford. Wahnsinnige lyrics, unheimlich schwer zu singen. Wer wagt hier ein Cover???
******
Gehört in jede Plattensammlung!!!
***
elton john is nicht so mein fall...
*****
Kannte den Song gar nicht, bis ich zufälligerweise das Album geschenkt erhielt. Finde den Song seither ziemlich gut, aber dennoch keine 6. Mir gefällt hier v.a. der gute Einsatz des Pianos. Ein Klassiker von Sir Elton aber nicht sein bester Song.
******
Oh,was für schöne Erinnerungen verbinde ich mit diesem super Song......
******
Mein Gott bei sowas geht mir einfach das Herz auf ... Komposition, Piano-Spiel, Gesang (natürlich auch Bernie Taupins Text) ... alles brilliant!!! Einer von Eltons ganz grossen Knallern (3 Wochen # 2 in den USA - 1973/4). Zu schön ....
******
Na also Lark, bei machen Songs sind wir gleicher Meinung... Ich stimme Dir 100%ig zu... Brillianter Song!!
******
Bestimmt ein '6' für Elton's best song from The Early Days.

When are you gonna come down
When are you going to land
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man

You know you can't hold me forever
I didn't sign up with you
I'm not a present for your friends to open
This boy's too young to be singing the blues

So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant me in your penthouse
I'm going back to my plough

Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road

What do you think you'll do then
I bet that'll shoot down your plane
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again

Maybe you'll get a replacement
There's plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who ain't got a penny
Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground

So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant me in your penthouse
I'm going back to my plough

Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road ...

I was really swept by this song. In my personal charts it peaked at # 2 and stayed there for 6 consecutive weeks from December 8, 1973 on. It was 13 weeks in my top 10 and 23 weeks listed.
******
stark

ja, das ist wirklich eine sehr schöne Ballade

Ein Klassiker - oft gehört, trotzdem Titel nie gewusst...

Wahrlich ein sehr schöner Elton John Titel.

schön

Na endlich ein 6 !
"Your Song und Border Song" war knapp kein 6 !, aber dieser song ist es schon..... speziel das "nervige" "whyyyyyyyy" . Mit Weihnachten 1973 war es am platz # 20 in NL....

genial!
*****
gut
******
Entfaltet auch heute noch volles Musikaroma...
******
Aus einer Zeit, als Elton John noch richtig gute Musik gemacht hat.
******
....und nicht in oberpeinlichen Jogginganzügen durch die Gegend rennt.
******
Wieder ein sehr gutes Lied unseres Eltons.

Schöne, alte Nummer aus den guten Elton-Zeiten...
******
Unglaublich, ein Phänomen, dieser Mann. Auch wenn nicht jeder seiner Hits eine Offenbarung ist, hat er doch eine Unzahl an absolut hörenswerten Songs geschrieben. Dieser gehört sicher zu den besten.
*****
Durchaus ein spezielles, schönes Werk. Allerdings für meinen Geschmack nicht die Höchstnote.
******
Super-schön!
******
superwerk
*****
Wirklich eines seiner Besten! Sehr beeindruckend.
******
Einfach grossartig , einfach 1A Aufbau von a-z

Hört den Song mal richtig laut - HAMMER !
****
ok.
******
Hervorragende Ballade. Die "Yellow Brick Road" ist natuerlich im Land Oz im Film/Roman "Alice im Wunderland".
*****
Eine Liga mit Rocket Man :)
**
Finde ich mühsam zum Zuhören.
****
Schönes, unaufdringliches Fahrstuhllied, gewohnt solides, aber wenig originelles Machwerk von Elton John. Passabel.
******
great!
******
Klasse Nummer von EJ.....eine seiner Besten...und er hat ja soviele geschrieben und gesungen....Toll!
*****
...schöne Balalde, aber für mich doch keine sechs...
*****
5-, mulle sobib üsna hästi
*****
der balladenmeister..sehr gut!
*****
Gefällige Hymne - in Elton Johns Schaffen aber nur zweite Qualität.

Super Ballade
*****
Ein Highlight aus seiner ganz starken Phase in den 70er Jahren.
*****
schön...
*****
.... schöne Ballade .....
*****
sehr gut
*****
sehr schöne Ballade
******
Eben seit längerer Zeit wiedermal gehört und gleich hin und weg gewesen.
"Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" ist der wohl beste EJ-Song, was in einem Repertoire wie dem seinen natürlich besonders bemerkenswert ist.
In meiner momentanen Wiederentdeckungs-Euphorie möchte ich fast sagen, dies sei eine der besten Pop-Kompositionen überhaupt, doch vielleicht wäre das etwas übertrieben.

Dennoch: Hinreissend! Absolut hinreissend! Und die gesangliche Leistung ist mal wieder unglaublich. Das kann nur Elton John singen.
7*

schoen.

hat mir nie gefallen
******
Fantastischer Titelsong. Eine wunderschöne, tief bewegende Ballade. 6*!
*****
Punktabzug für die Verlogenheit
****
hat mich nie sonderlich von den socken gehauen
******
ganz toll

geht so

▓ Vreemd dat deze mooie plaat (en ook nog wel alarmschijf) van "Elton John" uit eind november 1973 een flop geworden is in de Hollandse hitlijsten ??? Persoonlijk vind ik het toch nog altijd een hele mooie plaat, vandaar de 5 sterren !!! (NL top 40: 5 wk / # 20)
*****
Eine der zahlreichen wunderschönen Balladen des Piano-Meisters.
****
okay
*****
...irgendwann hab´ ich mal festgestellt, nix bleibt, wie es war, leider auch bei E. J., einer seiner besten Lieder aus seiner besten Zeit...
*****
...sehr gut...
******
Großartig! Meisterwerk!
******
shocking good!
******
Einer seiner vielen Meisterklassenstücke aus seiner besten 70er Jahre Zeit
******
Steckt voller Ideen. Stark. Elton John war damals auf dem Höhepunkt seines Schaffens.
******
Vielleicht Taupins bester Text, mit einer grandiosen Melodie von John zu einem wahren Klassiker gemacht.
****
Timeless classic but only a 4 for mas it's not elton's best track for me.
Peaking at #3 in Australia, 1973.
******
Na, wenn das keine 6 ist, was denn sonst?
******
En omedelbar klassiker från ögonblicket den kom ut. En av hans absolut bästa låtar. Kanske den allra bästa.
*****
Zoals altijd een mooie song van Elton John.
*****
Super!!!
******
Great song. Elton was genius in 70's. His best period.
****
gefällt mir ganz gut
******
Sehr gut. Und ich wusste bis heute nicht einmal, dass der Song von ihm war. Ansonsten war Elton John oft nicht mein Fall.
*****
Tolle Ballade
*****
Zurückhaltend und sehr schön!
******
Ganz grosses Kino, einer seiner allerbesten Songs! Auch wenn heute bei Livekonzerten seine Band die hohen Gesangparts übernehmen muss, da seine Stimme eben schon arg unter seinem Alkohol- und Drogenkonsum gelitten hat, ist sein Gesang auf der Aufnahme eine absolute Glanzleistung!
Elton selber sagt von sich und Bernie, dass diese Zeit ihre kreativste Phase war und sie sowas wohl nie wieder zustande bringen. Sehr ehrlich und treffend formuliert, denn diese Harmonien sind aussergewöhnlich, traumhaft, beispiellos, ausgezeichnet, einzigartig, brillant und schlicht und einfach wunderschön. Geniales Meisterwerk!
******
Ebenfalls eine seiner besten Balladen. Da krieg ich einfach jedesmal ne Gänsehaut. Sonst wurde ja hier schon alles gesagt. 6 Punkte!
******
Klassiker von ELTON JOHN : Wunderschöne Ballade
****
ist eine nett präsentierte Ballade aus 1973, aber im Vergleich zu 'Your Song' eindeutig schwächer - 4+...
*****
sehr schöne Ballade, für den absolut brillianten Refrain gibt's ne ganz klare 6, für das Gesinge zwischendrin nur ne 4
******
Klasse!
******
eindeutig die Höchstnote
*****
Gut ...
******
CD einlegen, Titel anspielen, zuhören und ...
meisterlich gesungen und gespielt
******
Weniger als 6 geht hier einfach nicht. Ganz großes Kino! ;-)
******
Titelsong des vielleicht besten EJ-Albums
****
Buena.
******
Schöner Titelsong vom besten Album, das Elton nach meiner Meinung je gemacht hat - erhöhe auf '6'.

... war mir bis heute gar nicht mehr so im Gehör - dafür die Wiederentdeckung umso angenehmer ... wirklich schöne Ballade ...
****
Prima popsong met mooie muzieklijn. Dik 4 sterren.
******
Sowas von genial - für mich sein bester Song.
******
perfekt
******
DAS ist Musik. Ein Stück für die Ewigkeit!
******
i really like it. and to sound like a broken record it is a TIMELESS CLASSIC :D
*****
Great song.
******
... ja, da passt alles ...
******
Brilliant track, especially the chorus! Probably has to be Elton's best.

...DA bekomme ich beim Hören IMMER Gänsehaut! Grossartiges Meisterstück!
*****
Sehr gut....
******
natürlich 6*
******
6/6
*****
ondanks de geweldige tekst haalt de song voor mij niet de volle 6, zal komen door het ontbreken aan een Ritme en een fatsoenlijke Melodie.
*****
... bemerkenswert guter Song ...
*****
So good, the falsetto at the end of the chorus just makes me so happy.
******
Ein fabelhafter Song von ihm!
******
Prachtige song van Elton op een van z'n beste albums

****
Mooie, voor mij persoonlijk wat onbekende, song van Elton John uit 1973.
4+
*****
Guter Song - ein Klassiker.
****
Lahm ... aber auch schön. 4+
****
Überdurchschnittlich
*****
Ein großer bluesig-süßlicher Slow Song aus der frühen Phase von Sir Elton. Etwas überdreht, aber sehr lieblich, gekonnt und freundlich, verstrahlt dieser Titel ein großes Maß an Zeitlosigkeit und Effizenz!
*****
5 stars
