Here come's the Rocket Man!!!

Well I never expected to be posting Elton John on the PCC blog, but you know the motto of the blog, if it's a cracker - a true club classic - we'll post it.
There are two mixes posted, both are really magical, retaining the great vocal and feel of what is arguably Elton John's best track. (Hard to believe that the original is now 38 years old!!!)
Hani's Mix is quite lively with some great piano and some lovely key changes and breakdowns.
The Phunky's Knee Deep Mix is very melodic and really well produced, but more laid back and more housey in style.
Out of the two I'd have to say that Hani's Mix just edges it, as it really is a fantastic track - dare I say it, quite BiR-ish in style. No faint praise indeed!!
Let me know your thoughts?

wow - didn't expect to see Elton on here (although did like "are you ready for Love'). Was lucky enough to see Elton play at Flintoff's testimonial (not very clubby!) and he is certainly a true star. Looking forward to hearing this track, thanks as always

Teknogangster - thanks for your comments. On this blog we try to post tracks which "move us". If you have something which you think is better, then great, please share it with the rest of us by putting up a link of the track, so we can all take an opinion. Thank you,
