Name That Tune

Last Friday I went to a concert, and I think it’s gonna be a long, long time before I see another concert so exciting. I hope you don't mind that I put down in words how wonderful these two artists were. I attended the concert with Jenn (Brett’s sister), Joyce (Brett’s mom), and Sherry (friend). The show was at the Energy Solutions Arena, and it was packed. After trying on our new t-shirts and snapping some photos, the music began. Right from the start, I gave them my heart and they didn’t disappoint. Had I seen the artists before the show started, I would have said, “Don’t go changing, to try and please me, you never let me down before” or “Sing us a song you’re the piano man, sing us a song tonight. Well, we’re all in the mood for a melody, and you’ve got us feelin’ alright.”

Figured it out? If you guessed the hidden songs were Rocket Man, Your Song, Don’t Go Breaking My Heart, Just the Way You Are, and Piano Man by these artists

then you are correct! May I present Sir Elton John and Billy Joel.

Billy and Elton sang for three and a half hours, non stop. It is hard to describe how great the music was, or how talented they were at the piano. Some of my other favorite songs or moments:

Candle in the Wind

Crocodile Rock

B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets-s-s-s

Tiny Dancer

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John putting his fantastic shoes up on the piano

I suppose you could say, “I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will.”
