Description

Daniel’ is a 1973 hit for Elton John and his lyricist Bernie Taupin. The song is perhaps one of the most misunderstood popular Ballads — the lyrics are inspired by the Vietnam War and tell the tale of the woes of an injured solider returning home. He travels to Spain to escape the ‘hero status’ lauded on him by friends and family back in Texas. In classic Elton form the graceful ballad has a moderate, moving style which made it such an enduring success. The song was released on John’s 1973 album ‘Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only The Piano Player’.
