That single and its video were dedicated to the memory of Diana, Princess of Wales, who died that year, with proceeds from the sale of the single going towards Diana's charities. According to the Recording Industry Association of America, with certified sales, this double A-side is the best-selling single of all time. The Guinness World Records 2009 states that the song is the biggest-selling single since UK and US singles charts began in the 1950s, having accumulated worldwide sales of 33 million copies. Billboard magazine said the song is a grandly executed ballad that washes John's larger-than-life performance in cinematic strings and whooping, choir-styled backing vocals. An instant fave for die-hards, this single will bring kids at top 40 to the table after a few spins..

This classic Elton John tune featured in the hit 2016 animated movie 'Sing', with a whole new generation of fans discovering it's foot tapping power. Taron Egerton's cover in the movie was ferocious, with a hot piano part that Jerry Lee Lewis would be proud of. This arrangement maintains a vocal line that is true to the Taron Egerton and original Elton verions, but the piano part is based on the movie soundtrack version and includes all of those flamboyant piano parts (and then some). Enjoy!

Border Song is a song by Elton John with music by John and lyrics by Bernie Taupin.[2] The song initially appeared on the 1970 album Elton John, and was released in the spring of 1970 as the LP's first single. After failing to chart in the UK, it was released in North America a few months later. It met with more success there, especially in Canada, where it peaked at No. 34.[3] The appearance of Border Song on the Canadian charts was John's first chart appearance in any country. Border Song was also John's first song to chart in the United States, peaking at No. 92 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 69 on the Cash Box Top 100[4] in October 1970. A cover by soul icon Aretha Franklin (with Holy Moses following the title in parentheses to reflect the repeated phrase in the song) fared better reaching No. 37 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 23 in the Cash Box Top 100 in December 1970.[5] It was included as the closing track of Aretha's 1972 Young, Gifted and Black album as well. The song's melody is similar to that of a spiritual.[7] A choir sings during an instrumental break led by John's piano. John has said that the song is about the alienation Taupin felt in and about London at the time (Brand of people who ain't my kind), and his desire to visit home as often as he could. John himself wrote and added the last verse, which departs from the theme of alienation and speaks against bigotry: Holy Moses, let us live in peace/let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease/there's a man over there. What's his colour I don't care/he's my brother let us live in peace..

For a whole week of Valentine's Day have your students use this fun and engaging sight reading practice with love songs THEY WILL KNOW! I use it as a warm up/ do now at the start of band and choral classes for the first 5-10 minutes or so.

These are quick 2, 4, and 8 measure examples totaling 10 songs for the students to practice sight reading using solfege.

There are some tricky syncopated rhythms involved as well as key changes (C, G, F, D, Bb).

The songs included in the 10 examples are, in order:

1. Can't Help Falling In Love - Elvis

2. Thinking Out Loud - Ed Sheeran

3. We Found Love - Rhianna

4. Just The Way You Are - Bruno Mars

5. She Loves You - The Beatles

6. I Will Always Love You - Whitney Houston

7. Shallow - A Star Is Born

8. All Of Me - John Legend

9. Can You Feel The Love Tonight - Elton John/Lion King

10. Love Is An Open Door - Frozen

This is a great warm up exercise at the start of class or rehearsal to get the students focused and their brains warmed up for singing, sight singing, reading, and learning new music.

Typically students can take either the whole sheet down in one day and we spend a good majority of a day on it OR spread it out over the week and do 1 or 2 a day.

Structure it as best you see fit.

The students love competing with each other to see who can figure out the solfege and the song first!

Bonus points if they can name the song, artist, and the correct lyrics!
