ELTON JOHN: 100 DEEP CUTS. This post: 1996. More next week.
Elton John boasts a catalogue of mega-selling and critically lauded albums. His songs are ubiquitous on the radio. We are all familiar with the signature hit songs such as “Candle In The Wind”, “Tiny Dancer”, “Rocket Man”, “I’m Still Standing”, “Daniel”, “Crocodile Rock”, “Your Song” and “Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me”. Elton’s songbook is so rich, further exploration reveals a treasure trove of gems just as deserving of attention. Caffè Lattè presents 100 deep cuts -compiled in chronological order- spanning the decades, from 1969 to the present. These tracks may be underrated or unfamiliar, but are further evidence of the talent possessed by Elton John.

100 ESSENTIAL ELTON JOHN
DEEP CUTS
LOVE SONGS {1996}
The compilation album ‘Love Songs’ included 2 new songs: "No Valentines" and the moving ballad “You Can Make History (Young Again)”.
81 You Can Make History
(Young Again)
When issued as a single in its own right in 1996, the song fared poorly on the charts. It was added as a third track on the double A-sided CD single with “Something About The Way You Look Tonight” and the new recording of “Candle In The Wind” in the following year. The latter was re-written as a tribute to Princess Diana who had tragically died that year. It was officially re-titled “Candle In The Wind 1997”. Upon release, the new version shattered records for sales.
