“Your Song” (Three Dog Night)

Later in 1970 this became the breakthrough for Elton John. Earlier in the year he was the opening act for Three Dog Night on tour and played this song every night. TDN asked to record the track but they deliberately kept it as an album cut (from “It Ain’t Easy”) giving him the chance to release it as a single. TDN correctly felt that would make things happen for Elton. It certainly did.
