I went through my Elton John (music) phase long before I heard this gem from his 1972 album, Honky Chateau. It’s a beautiful love song, dedicated to New York City. It features some of Elton’s best melody while lyricist Bernie Taupin adds some vivid, city-related imagery. Over the years, this has become my favorite Elton John song.
Listen to a song clip here.
