This cover has been in my head for weeks now (I have it on my Spotify) so I'm sharing it to make sure as many people see it as they can.
Elton said of this cover, "There does not need to ever be another cover of this song."

I had a revelation: "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" is basically "Maggie May," but gay.

Don’t know if you’ve done this before, but could you do a palette for ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road?’ by Elton John?

🏳️🌈Pride Month Day 10: Elton John 🏳️🌈
Elton John is a songwriter and pianist recognized as one of the most influential figures in pop music. John is known for his showmanship, flamboyant costumes and hits, from "Rocket Man" to "Tiny Dancer" to "Crocodile Rock." He's also known for his contributions to musical theatre and film, especially for his work composing the soundtrack for "The Lion King." In 1998, he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II for his contributions to music and charity. To add to his critical acclaim, John is one of 19 people to win an EGOT.
In 1976, John came out as bisexual, and in 1992, he told Rolling Stone that he was comfortable being gay. John had public relationships with both men and women, and his is currently married to David Furnish as of 2014, the year when same-sex marriage became legal in the UK. Not only has he been vocal about his sexuality, but he also was a driving force in the fight against AIDS. In 1992, he founded the Elton John AIDS Foundation, which has raised £300 million for the cause.

This is the first post-Wednesday without a Bad Batch. Maybe you've emotionally moved on. I made this to pick off that scab. That's how it felt making this anyway. Sad scenes and happy scenes are from the entire series are set to Elton John's "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road."
Ironically, I swore last Tuesday night/Wednesday morning would be the last I'd stay up late because of The Bad Batch. But next thing I knew, last night it was nearly 1am, and I just wanted to push this through to completion.
