Blue jean baby, L.A. lady
Seamstress for the band
Pretty eyes, pirate smile
You'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her
Dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me
Tiny dancer in my hand
Jesus freaks out in the street
Handing tickets out for God
Turning back, she just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad
Piano man, he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on, she sings the song
The words she knows, the tune she hums
But, oh, how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you, and you can hear me
When I say softly, slowly
Hold me closer, tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today
Hold me closer, tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today

I will always maintain that this album was the best that Elton ever made. And I'm not taking anything away from what came later, however "sparkly" it went on to being.
It's more that he chased that level of excellent for the rest of his life, and while he certainly put on a show with everything else even so I think this is his masterpiece. There's not a bad tune on it, and like many here yes, I sing along each and every time I hear it.
Hold me closer tiny Dancer!!

Yes!! And both still sound a LOT better than Bose! Noise cancelling headphones degrade sonic quality! But, work well if you must listen in a noisy envrinment, at that point, quality is out the window!

What is it about (early) Elton John that is always such perfection when heard again? Knowing minds of great artists is just not for us mortals. We're just riding shotgun. And that's ok. I suppose.

I always thought it was "hold me close, I'm tired of dancing." Which moved me more, for some reason :)

This is that thing in the 70's when if the songwriter wasn't clever enough to write two verses, you just copy/paste the one you did write and that was good enough?

This is that 70's thing, where it was okay if you just couldn't be bothered to think of another verse, you can just repeat the one you already sang, right? Or if you can't think of enough syllables, just stretch out the words to make it work so you can go home.

Sept 4/84 - the first time I saw Sir E.J.

I just cried in gratitude in being able to see my idol - a life moment I will never forget
I have been so lucky to see him 5 times more since that first time...xo

Bernie Taupin hit the jackpot when he met Elton John.
Yes, he wrote great lyrics, but what are the odds he would meet someone who could turn them into such incredible, timeless, classic songs?

As a teenager in the 70's, Elton's songs provided calm sweet serenity for our insecure selves. It's hard not to feel sentimental about such beautifully crafted music. Bravo Elton & Bernie. Well done.

Late 70's. Drove down from Breckenridge to spend a weekend in Littleton at a girl's parent's house for the weekend who I had met skiing. Woke up Sunday morning and she is singing/ playing this on the piano. How could it ever be anything other than a 10?
I hope you married her <3

Still like both equally depending on mood! In 1971 I was totally into Led Zepplin, I guess. Looking back I think I'd rather hear Elton John singing Tiny dancer than "Dyer Maker. Getting old? Sure. getting better?
My roommate in college gave this LP to me for x-mas in 1979. Wasn't really into Elton at that time. Boy did that change after playing this LP to death!
thanks Greg!

Ahh - The Loft! Loved seeing films there
I just had the same experience and I'm pleased to see this post when I pull up the RP page.
Turns out some scenes were filmed here in Tucson, AZ, and The Loft, our local awesome indie theater, played Almost Famous a few months ago in honor of Tucson's birthday. Back in 2000 I was broke and starting college, so this was my first chance to enjoy it on the big screen.
As a cool bonus, Jeff, The Loft's artistic director, led the entire audience in group-karaoke style sing-along of Tiny Dancer before the show. Now this song brings back both magical moments.
PS I miss you very much, Phil. At least I know where to find you when I'm feeling uncool and could use a little company.

Always love this song
Movie was great
Easy does it
This song never fails to remind me of my best friend :) I didn't know it until he played it in the car one day we were driving down from Germany to Switzerland. He was singing along, so animated, it's a great memory and now one of my favourite !
I have to admit, i never really tuned into this song until 'that scene' in almost famous... it's been my favorite EJ song ever since.
Love Elton John!!
Going to see him next month in Las Vegas, and I believe he's still playing this song!
Mixed feelings on this one. first, it is a great song. second, happened at a not so good time. I was 20 and totally faking it.
Anyone else think the lyrics were, "hold me closer Tony Danza?"

Hands up if you were singing along!

But the song wasn't written for the movie, as far as I know. Bernie wrote it about his wife/girlfriend at the time.
IMDB shows TD 'uncredited', I guess the song was so well-known by then they didn't feel the need.
I wore the grooves off this record. Even lesser tracks like Rotten Peaches were way above everything else being written then.

Actually, THIS was the film this song was originally scored for. It fit the soundtrack and the times perfectly. Aloha Bobby and Rose

I'm 14 again, confused afraid and anxious. But when I lay down in my bed in the darkness and listen to this album through my Koss headphones, everything fades away. Thanks EJ for helping me get through my adolescence.

Every time I hear this song I think of a good friend of mine telling me about what this song represents to him as we were driving away for the week-end. Each note brings me back to those minutes in his car and how I learned a bit more about him. It's a nice memory and I like the song for that ( beside the fact that the song itself is beautiful ).
Makes me just the right kind of sad.

Agreed. Seems like everyone I know loves Almost Famous, but for me it just didn't work. I was always aware that I was watching actors act, in their 70s wardrobe; it never felt real to me. The Tiny Dancer scene in particular. As soon as I heard the opening notes I knew we were in for the obligatory, feel-good singalong scene. Ack. Great song though!
Used much more effectively in Aloha Bobby and Rose, a perfect 70's time capsule all filmed during the period in question.
If you were to ask anybody who grew up in the '70s they'd tell ya, Almost Famous wasn't it.

From Wiki: "Elton John has also used Vicarage Road as a venue for concerts. He first played at the stadium in 1974, and returned in 2005 and 2010 to stage fundraising concerts for the club." Vicarage Road is Watford's stadium. Good side last season. Just missed promotion, eh?
Thank you for keeping Elton's good era alive.

No one will ever know how close I came to giving up tonight - and then this song came on, and I'm crying, but I can't give up. I guess there really is a supreme being who reaches down and rescues us when we just don't feel like we have another breath to breathe.
I'll be okay. I'm just really, really tired, but nowhere near as tired as others who've posted at the journals. This song will always be my bright light - that one that beckons me towards a more positive place.
Thanks, whoever uploaded it. You may have saved my life tonight, in a convoluted way.
