Only For Diana,
By Michael Kerner "Michael Kerner" (Brooklyn, New York U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Something About Way You Look Tonight / Candle In The Wind 1997 (Audio CD)
When the whole world heard about the tragic death of Diana: Princess of Wales, it became one of the most tragic events ever in the history of England. She was a very close friend of Elton John particularly, and it even shown in Candle In The Wind 1997. The song was heartbreaking and just completely sad, as a tribute for somebody who stood out for all of the world to love. For the other song, Something Anout The Way You Look Tonight, it was a great launching pad for The Big Picture record. Although The Big Picture did alright, this single stood out further, and became the biggest-selling single in music history. It really is one of the most powerful songs ever, period.

Tearfully Fantastic,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Something About Way You Look Tonight / Candle In The Wind 1997 (Audio CD)
Even though I had this CD since its release in September 1997 tears still come to my eyes whenever I listen to it. I have become addicted to this CD. This is Sir Elton's BEST release so far. It deserves more than five stars.

A wonderful tribute song,
By G. Sawaged - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Something About Way You Look Tonight / Candle In The Wind 1997 (Audio CD)
I think a couple of the reviewers here have missed the point. And regardless of what they think, I know that Diana would have been very touched by this re-writing of Candle in the Wind. Especially seeing that all the artist and composer royalties and record company profits from the sale of this cd will be donated to the Princess of Wales Memorial Fund. It's a beautiful song, and the words are just right, and this song does deserve to go down in history, which it certainly will. The cd that I have though, not only has "Candle in the Wind 1997" and "Something about the way you look tonight", but it also has "You can make history (Young again)" on it. I'm not sure if it's just an oversight by ..., but maybe the one here does too and it's just not listed. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful

Good new version,
By GTTF - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Something About Way You Look Tonight / Candle In The Wind 1997 (Audio CD)
This is Elton John, one of the best classic rock piano players of all time in my opinion. The 1997 version of "Candle in the Wind" is a piano solo, which puts people in the mood for moments of relaxation. "Something About the Way You Look Tonight" is another Elton John classic that is very pretty and happy as well. Elton refuses to have "Candle in the Wind 1997" put on any other disc nor to ever sing it's lyrics again so all who want this selection legally must buy it and give the proceeds to the Diana Princess of Wales Memorial Fund. Although I prefer the old version of "Candle in the Wind" this version is worth every penny.
