Tiny Dancer (Elton John cover)

(spoken)
Tiny dancer...
two words...
that strike a chord in the heart of every sensitive 32 year old man and...uh,
A song actually I don't think I'd ever heard until I saw... Almost Famous.
So every night before going to bed, I thank Cameron Crowe, for...
opening up a part of me that I don't think I ever knew... until now.
(sings)
Blue jean baby,
LA lady,
seamtress for the band.
Pretty eyed,
pirate smiled,
you'll marry a music man.
Ballerina,
you must have seen her,
dancing in the sand.
Now she's in me,
always with me,
Tiny dancer in my hand.
(spoken)
You know let's skip all the other crap and just get to the chorus, like on that bus scene.
What do you say?
(crowd cheers)
Now, keep going, keep going... keep going, keep going...
(crowd keeps cheering) There you go.
But you know what I really wanted to do, was I wanted to recreate that timeless scene in uh, Almost Famous. I wanted to do kind of like a performance art piece, where I'd have uh, a little kiddie pool and I'd jump in the kiddie pool, and then --on acid, and uh andthen, then someone come and drape a towel on me and then have uh, uh ya know, Craig come behind me and uh, sing along to the, to the song.
But I think what I'm gonna need everybody to do is sing the chorus along so we can really recreate that magic. Right?
(crowd cheers)
OK?
Now I'm gonna count, I'm gonna give you a four count.
(crowd keeps cheering)
HEY THIS IS MY SHOW!
Alright, here we go... One, Two, Three, Four
(singing)
Hold me closer tiny dancer,
count the headlights on the highway,
lay me down in sheets of linen,
you had a busy day today.
(spoken)
One more time, come on! SING IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT!
(singing)
Hold me closer tiny dancer,
count the headlights on the highway,
lay me down in sheets of linen,
you had a busy day today.
