Where? I wanna hear it?
Just Google it it will come up. Ed lyrics Elton music
Found it. That wasn't bad at all. I think I actually liked that.

Not great, but could have been way worse....

I’d call it a Bargain, the cheapest virtual studio time, both have ever had (unless Stone Gossard’s stake in Microsoft has increased)

Yeah, this is actually pretty good. Better than I expected. Makes me not dread the collaboration they apparently have for Eddie Vedder’s new album, Forthcoming.

Realistically i'm not sure ill really be seeking this one out again, but for what it is i think its totally fine!
I'm constantly amazed though at how much i love Elton John's voice on a number of his 70s hits and absolutely can't stand it on anything recorded from like the mid 80s on.

I definitely don't hate it, like it quite a bit actually
it feels like a respectful amalgamation of both of their styles, which is a thing I never thought I'd think or say
I guess if you cross these two artists together you get something that Counting Crows might write, so yeah, I can dig it

Meh. It wasn't embarrassing, but I don't need to ever hear it again.

That's a pretty good summation of this track. I kinda dig it too.

Just listened.
Better than “Croon Spoon”, I guess.

this waa fun for what it was. i liked it more than highway to hell.
this was a pretty prolific year for Mr. Vedder. Matter of Time, Flag Day, Earthling, e-ticket, highway to hell. No masterpieces, but Flag Day is quietly good

Hadn't heard this before. Much better than the Elton song. Actual rock.

Earthling is still “forthcoming”. That album featuring the hit new single Can’t Deny Me is also still “forthcoming”. Never let a promised Pearl Jam release under the banner forthcoming get your hopes up.

This is a fun little track. Not every song needs to be Tremor Christ. The prominent rocking piano reminds me of old school Elton, which I have nostalgia for.

Has a Quadrophenia vibe to it, so it makes enough sense for Ed to be involved with it. Not bad.

I didn’t like it much. Bruce and Eddie are good, but Tom Morello doesn’t work for me out of Rage
