| Elton John – Tiny Dancer Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
I'm with Kangaroofeet4. Bernie met Maxine on Elton's (and Bernie's) first trip to the US just before is landmark engagement at the famous Troubadour on Sunset Strip. On their first date they went to the beach with another girl (a date for Elton) while Elton sulked back at hotel room, hence the reference to dancing in the sand. Bernie did go on to marry he rather quickly and she was rather like a roadie as KF4 points out. If memory serves she was also a trained ballerina but never danced anywhere of note and the marriage was over rather quickly. BTW - Elton's appearance at the Troubadour brought down the house and got him lots of support from the well connected people in the room that night. Although "Border Song" and "Your Song" were already successes, that appearance put Elton John on the Pop map in the US to stay. |
