	Rocket Man (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Due to the song's connection with science fiction, it is considered by some to be an example of filk music, though it did not emerge from SF fandom.
		Musically, the song is a highly-arranged pop ballad anchored by John's piano, with atmospheric texture added by synthesizer and processed slide guitar.
		Another "Rocket Man" song, (also based on Bradbury's short story, but unrelated to Elton John's song), was released by the musical group Pearls Before Swine on their 1970 album The Use of Ashes.

	Rocket Man by Elton John Songfacts
		I heard that he was writing this song while he was building a rocket in his basement.....i dunno that's just what I heard.He wanted to be an astronaut but since he was from england, NASA wouldn't let him.
		Actually, there is a short story by Ray Bradbury called "The Rocket Man," which is about a father's fading relationship with his wife and son due to his job of piloting rockets for months at a time.
		I think the song, like Bradbury's story is about distant fathers and a conflict between love of a job and love of family.

	TCS Daily - Rocket Man (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The rocket weapon, called the Kassam, first appeared in 2002 as a modest 2.4 inch diameter cylinder about the length of a yardstick, carrying a one pound warhead to a range of a little less than two miles.
		And although he had many ancient precursors, the man we have to thank is an Englishman, Sir William Congreve, the original rocket man. (For those of a literary bent, he is not to be confused with the playwright and poet of the same name a century earlier.)
		His rockets were not just overgrown fireworks, but quite sophisticated for their day, with iron casings, well-packed fl powder propellant and a range of almost a mile.

	ROCKET MAN
		A bumbling rocket scientist, he gets his chance when an upcoming team member is injured and NASA desperately needs a replacement.
		Beyond Williams the rest of the cast is competent in their filler roles of playing the "straight man" or hapless victim to Fred's antics, but Jessica Lundy ("The Stupids") does deliver a certain charm, and is the beauty that calms Fred's comic beast.
		Silly and stupid, "Rocket Man" nonetheless hits a bullseye with its target audience and it, and Williams' antics, come across as funny lunacy.

		The skittering boogie of "Honky Cat" and the light psychedelic pop of "Rocket Man" helped send Honky Chateau to the top of the charts, but what is truly impressive about the album is the depth of its material.
		Rocket Man (I Think It's Going to Be a Long, Long Time)
		This album, which originally appeared on LP in several slightly different versions and song lineups in different countries, came out at an unlikely moment.

		All Elton John's early 70s masterpieces are collected here, from the elegant and sensitive Your Song and Daniel to the bouncy Honky Cat and the fast-paced Crocodile Rock.
		It is a song by a young man singing to his brother who is no longer alive.
		(Of course, this is the song that he later adapted for Princess Diana after her tragic accident.) The rest of the CD is brilliant.

	Rocket Man - @forums
		(Tori's live "Daniel" is nipping at the hem of her skirt, however.) Rocket Man isn't my favorite Elton song by a long shot (that would be "Tiny Dancer"), but Kate's take makes me appreciate its beauty so much more.
		i have yet to hear kate sing "rocket man" i have to get a move on it and listen to the cds chris sent me because i think it's on one of them.
		I'll listen to Kate's version, because it's Kate, but I just adore how she tweaked "Rocket Man" to the point where she owned it.

		Rocket Man is already one of my favorite songs and instead of doing a crappy remix of the original version, Daphne Rubin-Vega (the original Mimi from RENT) signed on to add her distinct voice and immense talent to this recording.
		If you are a fan of Elton John's Rocket Man...buy it, if you are a RENT fan or a Daphne fan...purchase it.
		I heard this re-recording of Eltons Rocket man for the first time 6 days ago whilst clubbing.

		The ethereal "Rocket Man" is a marvel despite its goofy premise, and "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" remains the greatest pop moment of John's career.
		Elton John has produced some of the best pop songs ever, and this album is irrefutable proof to that claim.
		It's not that it's subpar, because it is a grat song, but it seems a bit out of place for some unexplained reason.

	Live
		This is not a state of the art recorded performance but came out very well- Hearing this early version of 60 yrs on makes it more than worth having.
		Various live appearances in London Early 70's Does not appear to be done in 75 but some excellent songs done live.
		It is not exactly a soundboard but was recorded with superior equipment and captures the bass and treble well as well as the essence of this tour.
