Elton John - Chameleon (Love Songs (UK TV label)))

Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the album Blue Moves


The last I heard of you
You were somewhere on a cruise in the Mediterranean
So imagine my surprise to see you very much alive
In the English rain again

And I can still recall wet afternoons
When we were small and simply childish
But you've created your own ghost
And the need you have is more than most to hide it


Oh, Chameleon, you're stealing your way back into my eyes
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
You're a devil, you're a devil in disguise
Do you really change me, or am I going crazy
Chameleon, Chameleon, Chameleon, you're free again my child


I remember still those lazy summer days
We'd kill out hunting danger
And we were alien to all outsiders
We had no desire to talk to strangers

I have always felt very priviliged to have grown up in the 70's from a musical perspective. Elton John's early stuff was absolute quality and for me Captain Fantastic was and still is the best album he ever produced. Thanks Elton, you're a one off.

I pretty much grew up with his music in the 70's as a kid...it always played in my house. I always thought this song was very beautiful, but it would make me cry sometimes. I don't know why. It brings back so many memories now and still makes me cry. I think because my mom was alive back then, but died when I was only 12...so it reminds me of that wonderful time when she was here and the horribly sad time when she left.

The songs, the music, the lyrics are all out of this world..................but Elton's voice is rarely talked about. I think his voice....in the 70's and 80's .....were the absolute best. He voice just sounds so good. So clean, pure and perfect. Not enough is said.....about Elton the "vocalist".

It has always reminded me of Lennon, too. (Maybe because Ray Cooper had just begun doing percussion and was featured prominently of EJ's cover of "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" the year before.) And I love songs that start slow and quiet and then BUILD.

One of the best three-minute songs ever. As a song longer than six minutes, it's average. Still, one of the best poets of our generation producing such great words.

They worked together as one of the greatest song teams ever. Of course Elton John is not the same, but they are both amazing....and BOTH contributed and inspired each other
