She and Taupin married in I interpreted it as a bobble head hula girl on the dashboard counting the headlights on the highway of a car driven by a lonely man who fancies her his human companion taking her where ever he went. I watched a early 70s documentary of Elton John as he sat at the piano creating the song of tiny dancer.
It even showed video of Bernie and his girlfriend. He also explained that she sewed up their costumes while they were on tour. Hints,seamstress for the band. I think the song is for princess Diana after the car crash. RIP Princess Diana. I love how everyone has there own idea about what it means lol.. Maybe that's what the song was about to keep us guessing and talking about it for ever and ever lol. For some, I lower the volume and kind of drift away, for others, I blast it because it is my heart and soul screaming.
Additionally, I would tend to agree that if a song writer can evoke a double meaning, then why not Jesus freaks is reference to the Hare Krishna's who ran in bunches up and down Hollywood Boulevard handing out religious tracts tickets for God.
Could she be a street walker? Jesus freaks out in the streets taking to hookers Handing tickets out for God talking about salvation Turning back she just laughs at the Christians The boulevard is not bad. This is my interpretation. I agree that it is about maxine feibelman, but when the song gets to the part We stopped caring about what people had to say. This song always reminds me of one night It was after my dance recital, he picked me up and we were driving home It was a pretty long ride at night, down the highway.
We were completely silent, because I was so exhausted. He just stared at me like he couldn't be any prouder. We're both a little bit This song came on the radio, and we just started singing it with the top down, riding down the highway. People looked at us like we were insane, but that didn't really matter. He would sing most of it, and then we'd both scream the chorus.
It was perfect. They were inspired by Taupin's first trip to America. John and Taupin are from England, and this was the first album they wrote after spending time in the US. She traveled with the band on their early tours, often sewing together the costumes and fixing their clothes. She and Taupin were wed in This album was much more heavily-produced than Elton's first 4.
It was one of his first songs with a lush string section arranged by Paul Buckmaster, who arranged the stings on many of Elton's albums as well as songs by The Rolling Stones, Train, and Leonard Cohen.
Ron Cornelius, who played guitar on Cohen's album Songs Of Love And Hate, told us: "Buckmaster is a wonderful string arranger, he's just one of these guys who can make an orchestra talk. In other words, if the strings aren't saying something, it ain't on the record. This was featured in the movie Almost Famous. It is used in a scene where the band is mad at each other, but remembers why they love music when they all start singing this on their tour bus.
He hated it. On the show, he claimed he wanted the nickname Tony "Extrava" Danza. I personally think its about a struggling dancer, who falls in love with the narrorator, in L. I think it means she's ignoring the ones she truly loves, when he says "turning back, she just laughs," "ballerina, you must of seen her, is because she got famous and i think "the words she knows," maybe the musician she married to become successful, just pushed her in the background, to be his back-up singer, I think she somehow dies, and the narrorator obviouslly still loved her, and is mourning her death, and hes still poor, Im not sure, thats just what I imagine.
Love the song. BermudaMay on February 01, This song was written by lyricist Bernie Taupin, he and Elton wrote many songs together. Bernie and Maxine were only married a few years before they divorced so it's without surprise that Bernie now claims the song was just inspired by the bands first trip to the US and the free spirited women of California PrincessLeon on November 26, So she became the singer's inspiration, she became his muse.
Artists - E. Greatest Hits, Vol. Rate These Lyrics. And why indeed was she so darn tiny? They were these free spirits, sexy, all hip-huggers and lacy blouses, very ethereal the way they moved. They wanted to sew patches on your jeans. They mothered you and slept with you. It was the perfect Oedipal complex.
Fences are immediately mended because the song has reminded them just why they came together in the first place. Such is the power of this song whose longevity and impact has long since overwhelmed the initial humdrum reaction to it.
But one mystery remains. Luckily, Bernie Taupin has the answer. Bernie told me and other friends and family that Tiny Dancer was about Maxine.
They got married very young, and Bernie had a lot of issues of his own back then, and not surprisingly Maxine had enough and moved on.
