@nyadrn. Yesterday when this was anounced, there was a worldwide groan.
On one of the talk shows they joked that when Elton does retire, he will finally reveal that the correct words for the song really were, "Hold me closer, Tony Danza." I laughed so hard. Ever since that was a dialog line by the character Phoebe on the show Friends years and years ago, I have been singing those words instead of "tiny dancer" and smiling.
Wonder what Tony Danza ever thought about that? N.
