Your Song - Elton John

As songs about songs go, Elton John's 1970 release of "Your Song" is about as good as it gets. (It was his very first pop hit.) More recently, the remarkable version featured in the movie Moulin Rouge, sung by Ewan McGregor, introduced a whole new generation to this song for the very first time.

Apparently, this song was an easy one for Elton to write - it reportedly only took him 10 minutes.  (The words were penned by his longtime collaborator Bernie Taupin over breakfast earlier that same day.)

Happy listening!
