    I have watched this about 7-8 times now, I love it..

    I think the impressiveness of this is watching a band like Metallica be fan boys for a few minutes and grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this for Elton. Let alone slaying the song in Metallica fashion, you can tell they put in the time to perform this at a high standard, and wanted to do this justice in front of him. This wasn't about Metallica it was about Elton..

    This was off the charts, and one of the coolest things I have seen in a while..

    Being a huge Elton John fan, and an Old School Metallica fan fed the flames inside me as well..
