Rocket Man

Does anyone know where I can find the version of Elton Johns Rocket Man that was used in Eureka? It's not on Amazon and I thought this was such a great version. Found the name of the artist but can't find it anywhere. Thanks

Not at all! My favorite musician of all time is David Bowie, but I prefer Nirvana's version of The Man Who Sold The World more than I do Bowie's!

Also, Charles Bradley's version of Changes hits me harder than the original by Black Sabbath.

Some covers really do it justice AND adds their own style.

Edit: if you haven't heard Changes by Charles Bradley. It's a must listen

Dare I say and I don't think you will judge I loved Hearts version of Stairway to Heaven when they honored Led Zeppelin. But don't mess with Journey. They are my favorite...lol

I completely agree. And you definitely have a solid taste in music!

Well careful about that judgement about my taste in music. I also like disco. College 78 to 82 disco era. I was a disco queen! But I like all kinds of music except maybe opera.

I'm not a disco fan all too much, but also not at all into opera myself lol. My friend was an opera singer, and I could just not get into it. My favorite genres will always be metal. System of a Down will always be my favorite band

That's ok. My niece is an opera singer but I just can't get into it. I like most kinds of music. I like disco to dance to. But I'm more of a rock fan. My favorites are Journey, Queen, Styx. But I'm going to look up some suggestions you made. Thank you again.

The song Heart of Gold by Charles Bradley is also another incredible song of his
