Yeah the song is about an American dancer who had AIDs and his country was doing nothing about AIDs. The lyrcis are self explanatory when you know that i feel. Elton explained this at Christenhof Castle on his solo leg of his tour in 2003.

@tompos Except the USA WAS doing something about AIDS.

The lack of action/funding is a complete myth. By 1985, the USA had spent nearly $1 Billion on what was still largely an unknown disease.
