A wonderful breathtaking concert



Sir Elton John gave an amazing 2and a half hours concert in Bucharest, Romania


Sir Elton John and his band World Tour 2010 arrived to Bucharest after four other concerts in Poland, Serbia, Hungary and Czech Republic.
In the opening a Romanian band performed, VH2, warming up the people gathered in Constitution's Square in front of the second largest building in the world People's House.
A little bit after eight o'clock Sir Elton John and His Band started the show that kept people on applauding and dancing for two and a half hours. The show was supposed to go for two hours with a half an hour break, but Sir Elton John felt so good with the public in the square that he continued to sing a piano solo for few minutes when his band took a short break.
The piano, Sir Elton's voice, the drums, the guitars, the lights...everything was in perfect harmony and spread such a joy that can hardly be described in words. Everywhere you could look in the Constitution's Square, Bucharest people where all a smile and this is what Sir Elton John and the whole band felt and received and made them perform with smile faces and enjoy every minute they spent in Romania.
At one moment Sir Elton John said to people "Thank you for your warm applause". In fact, after every song he was smiling and thanking people for their applause and joy.
When "Sacrifice" first piano accords spreads into the square the public burst into applause and screams and light the lights and wave their hands.
Davey Johnstone, the guitarist, gave people few of his guitar picks to the fans.

Sir Elton John offered two autographs and received a large bouquet of red roses at the end of the great performance he had in Bucharest.
"Your Song", "Sorry seems the hardest word", "Something about the way you look tonight", "Rocket man", "I'm still standing"...and many more flew in the air and the piano seemed charmed by the artist magic fingers along with the rest of the instruments in a perfect harmony making people sing along and dance and feel every vibe.

When the end came people started to shout "Elton, Elton" and the artist came back on the stage and performed three more songs with lot of joy. At one moment he even jumped on top of the piano smiling and applauding with the crowed.
Sir Elton John was for his second time in Bucharest. His first concert happened in June 2003 and I have the feeling after Saturday night he will come back for sure some time in the future.
Until then...everyone and each of the persons that have been in the square has the memory of the great emotions he/she/they lived during the wonderful performance of the one and only Sir Elton John.

"Love, health and happiness. God bless you" said Sir Elton John in the end to the public which gave him the energy to go on singing without break.
