This is probably one the best live versions I’ve heard

[KnightOfAwesometon]

Elton John, Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, and Phil Collins. Now THAT'S what it looks like to see some of the best talent in the biz on one stage.

[ziggystardust]

This was such a dark time for him and the way for him to still perform on that level is nothing short of phenomenal.

[joshayyee]

Phil Collins on the drums, and eric Clapton on guitar !

[Anthony-lgvx]

If I had a time machine I would just travel to all these classic concerts like this

[iwishiwasminholly]

This song absolutely defines him.
"I'm still standing after all this time" what a living legend he is.

[CD-tjhg]

"Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind." God DAMN Bernie and Elton knew how to write their souls into songs.

[ritodanger]

If you are a struggling musician, this is the most healing thing

[PKaye-ruks]

Elton John [sitting down]: I'm still standing

[judyrizzo]

I am listening to this in2024! I am still standing after much sadness in my life

[mariocaffari]

Probably his BEST live manifestation of one of his greatest songs, full of life power and joy

[LostInYoutube]

This is the NBA ALL Stars of music singing and playing music together.

[ltsch]

Even better than the studio version in my eyes. So powerful and fresh

[chaodck]

This is the best performance of this song ever. The energy is amazing, gives me chills.

[wenbee]

Can we also give some props to the backup singers?! I love hearing them all the way through the song. What an incredible performance from everyone on stage! I can't stop watching it. I wish I could go back in time and be in this audience. I have a feeling, however, that I may not have known what an iconic performance this was at the time.

[andygriffin]

This is the type of 2021 energy we need

[r.l.six-musicandrecords]

Eric Clapton never overshadows any legends he plays with, he's such a legend in his own right.

Out of all of the live versions I've seen of him performing this song, this is by far the best performance I've seen.

[davervmirxz]

"I'm still Standing, Looking like a True Survivor, Feeling like a little kid" I felt that sh't 🥺
