Anyone heard it? I LOVE it! Such a great video too! Can’t stop watching it!

I love it too, it’s infuriating singing along though when it never gets to any of the choruses!

Annoyedandirritated · 01/09/2021 13:49

Ha ha yes! My husband said it should be two separate songs!

To save anyone else the hassle of having to try and find it, I think this is it

(I don't understand why people posts threads and don't actually provide the means to find out about what they are talking about)

Interested in this thread?

I think it’s fucking shit.

Good god that is bloody awful.

@NeonJellyBaby

I think it’s fucking shit.
I'm with you on this one

I don't mind the singing bits, but what ON EARTH are those shouts of 'No, no, NO NO!' or whatever it is in between? I heard the song in the car and it felt really creepy!

Lottapianos · 01/09/2021 14:09

Heard it on the radio yesterday and thought it was bloody awful

drpet49 · 01/09/2021 14:09

It is awful. Just another Elton John attempt at trying to stay relevant.

That's because it is two separate songs. Confused

It sounds like a child has got hold of some mixing app and made it. Awful.

AlternativePerspective · 01/09/2021 14:11

There’s one of rocket man as well which I heard on the radio this morning.

effiehabb · 01/09/2021 14:16

Ooh, I quite like it. Not so sure about the video though Grin

GarnetsandRubies · 01/09/2021 14:20

It's terrible. Sorry like but it is.

Awful monotonous song, and dreadful video. If you turn off the sound, it might be ok to stick on, for a small child to watch all the movements and colours, which might entertain them.

NeonJellyBaby · 01/09/2021 14:26

I’m glad it’s not been who things it’s shit. Elton has always been desperate to be seen as cool and on trend and ‘down with the kids’. Remember his awful duet with Eminem?! That was embarrassing as well. He just comes over as desperate to stay relevant to me.

Mariell · 01/09/2021 14:27

I’ve yet to hear anything by Dual Leper that doesn’t sound like any young girl singing in her bedroom!

I don’t get the hype.

Mariell · 01/09/2021 14:27

Dua Lepa

Mariell · 01/09/2021 14:28

Dua Lipa - finally got it right!

whoknew23 · 01/09/2021 14:29

thank you!

I thought I’d imagined this , I heard it on the radio the other day and could only remember that it was mash ups and Elton John , then I couldn’t find it .

Passmeamenuatthetottenham · 01/09/2021 14:29

Oh my god, I just watched this and have realised that until today I always thought the lyrics in 'Sacrifice' were 'Cocoa hot' not 'cold cold heart' 😂

Mariell · 01/09/2021 14:29

I much prefer this -

Shirleyphallus · 01/09/2021 14:33

Ah it’s ok, it’s not offensive

IncludeWomenInThePrequel · 01/09/2021 14:39

Jeezus an Elton John remix. Because we haven't been subjected to his banality in this country for quite enough decades already.

notapizzaeater · 01/09/2021 14:45

I love it, and I'm not a particular EJ fan 😀

NiceGerbil · 01/09/2021 14:48

It's sacrifice isn't it?

That video is awful.

Original was better. The disco backing sounds like a keyboard on a bossa nova type setting Grin
