- Elton John, Country Crooner

For the song "Turn The Lights Out When You Leave," Elton took Bernie Taupin's lyrics about not falling to pieces when your lover leaves, added pedal steel guitar and a slight twang to his vocals, and created a country-sounding classic.

The non-album track "How's Tomorrow" is another country-sounding song that features pedal steel guitar, especially in the instrumental break, while Elton's piano closes out the song. The lyrics deal with the seemingly mundane events that turn out to be very meaningful in the course of our lives.

"Little moments in time are hard to define;

Frozen forever, locked up in our minds.

The reasons we're right there at a point in our lives

Isn't ours for the asking, isn't ours to decide.

It's not always but often, but when that moment arrives,

When we say how's tomorrow,

We mean the rest of our lives."

The non-album track "Peter's Song" is a moving ballad that features acoustic guitar. The song celebrates the joys of being a child, as well as reflecting on how quickly childhood ends. The Peter in the song's title undoubtedly refers to Peter Pan. In fact, this song was originally intended for the soundtrack to the movie "Finding Neverland."
