The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
my first thought was 'saturday's alright for fighting'. also 'bennie and the jets' on speed. i barely recognize elton john's voice on here at first. the songs is fine, but its super cool elton john wanted to record with eddie vedder. it kinda blows my mind.
i thought highway to hell was terrible, which is a shame b/c i love all 3. its way, way, way too over produced. i didn't think the elton john track was terrible, but its forgettable. EV's cover of REM's 'Drive' is amazing and makes me completely look passed these other 2 songs.

Yeah, I definitely feel the Saturday Night vibe, upbeat fun. It’s okay, I definitely like the Ed vocals better than Elton’s. I’ve grown to appreciate Elton’s catalog a lot more as an adult so it was cool to hear he & Ed collaborated but Elton’s best stuff is mostly at least 35 years old. Those ‘70s piano tunes, mostly ballads, that made him famous are still fantastic and there’s a bunch of them. The song that won him his second Oscar, just a couple years ago, really wasn’t that great.

I think this is a good description. I don’t think I’d ever get through an Elton journey, but I might listen to the greatest hits from 50 years ago.

I enjoy John's catalog quite a bit but man are there significant peaks among incredible valleys, Taupin's involvement is a fairly important variable. That said, Songs from the West Coast is an album I always have in regular rotation.
