Greatest Hits 1970-2002 – Nikita.
Inevitably, the letter “G” will yield several “greatest hits” albums and this is the first. Elton John’s music has always appealed because of the range of styles he has used. However, I believe it is his ballads that are the best songs.
This track is an excellent example of such ballads, but the attraction of the song are the lyrics (they remind me of a movie, but I am not sure what the movie is). The song also has a lot of unusual percussion, which I think adds to the presence without being too over-powering. There is also a bass horn of some type that amuses me the way it appears occasionally – I am easily pleased sometimes!
