Elton John - Daniel / Fuel cover (ASL, Guitar, Ukulele, Piano, & More)

Today's song is Daniel by Elton John and cover by Fuel. Elton John needs little introduction. Born Reginald Dwight in Pinner, England, he became one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with more than 300 million records sold worldwide. His partnership with lyricist Bernie Taupin, which began in 1967, is among the most celebrated songwriting teams in popular music. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994.

“Daniel” was released in January 1973 as a single from the album Don’t Shoot Me I’m Only the Piano Player. Taupin has said the lyrics were inspired by a magazine article about a Vietnam veteran returning to a small town in rural Texas, and the song carries a quiet, wistful sadness about a brother who has left and the ones left behind. It climbed to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached the top 5 in the UK, and it remains one of Elton’s most beloved ballads.

Then there’s the cover that made me love this song even more. Fuel formed in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in the early 1990s and broke through in the late ’90s with alternative rock hits like “Shimmer” and “Hemorrhage (In My Hands).” With Brett Scallions’ powerful, gravelly vocals out front, their version of “Daniel” takes the gentle original and gives it a heavier, more emotional edge. It’s one of my favorite song covers ever.

It's raining outside today and that always reminds me of this song and of my old friend Dustin. He was like a brother to me, and even though he's not in my life, I guess he still is.

So it’s fitting this song is back in my life’s soundtrack. Let’s learn it together, the ASL version and on Guitar, Ukulele & Piano. I added some really great covers of this song too, including Fuel’s. Let’s get into it...

brett scallions singing the song daniel cold live at the chapel. Very few people can cover a song and have it be as great as this, i have always said nothing beats the original, but in this very rare case, brett's version of daniel beats the original.
