Track Of The Week : Elton John - Funeral For A Friend/Love Lies Bleeding

Ok this song is an old one, but i can't stop listening to it at the moment. This track is off the 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road' album which is an absolute triumph and is without doubt a classic. Sure it goes for 11 minutes and its two songs in one, but it rewards you the whole way. Elton's piano work and his amazing band are on show here in what is such a damn good song even Dream Theatre did a cover of it. But for now, just stick to the original. I have dreams about playing this song live, id make it glitchy and more synthy and a bit darker with a wicked power metal solo near the end but enough about my fantasies, here it is.

PS. Im careful when i post mp3's cuz of the legal thing, so when i can ill give u stream URLS like this one but if not you will get an mp3. If the link doesnt work, just search on p2p or something use your imagination people.

PPS. Gig and Club guide for the weekend will be out tomorrow, havent had enough time to compile the dates and to talk to the club promoters yet ;)
