}} ''Two Rooms: Celebrating the Songs of Elton John & Bernie Taupin'' is a 1991 tribute album consisting of interpretations of sixteen songs written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin. The title refers to a song on John's album ''21 at 33'', "Two Rooms at the End of the World", and to the duo's unusual collaborative style; it is also the title of a 1991 film documenting their collaboration. The album gained an uneven reception,〔''Rolling Stone'', "Elton by Others is an Uneven Enterprise", October 2, 1991.〕 though some performances were singled out for praise, including Sinéad O'Connor's interpretation of "Sacrifice"〔''People'' magazine, "Two Rooms But One Great Songbook", September 23, 1991.〕 and Kate Bush's reggae-inflected version of "Rocket Man", which in 2007 won ''The Observer'' readers' award for Greatest Cover of all time.〔("The top 50 greatest covers as voted by you" ), ''The Observer'', UK 2007.〕 Oleta Adams' version of "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", peaked at #33 in the UK charts. Kate Bush's "Rocket Man" was released as a single and peaked at #12 in the UK and #2 in Australia (where it beat the original version's chart position by several places). Wilson Phillips' cover of "Daniel", while not released as a single, peaked at #7 in the US Adult Contemporary chart due to strong radio airplay. ==Track listing== # "Border Song" - Eric Clapton 4:21 # "Rocket Man (I Think It's Going to Be a Long, Long Time)" - Kate Bush 4:57 # "Come Down in Time" - Sting 3:38 # "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting" - The Who 4:32 # "Crocodile Rock" - The Beach Boys 4:21 # "Daniel" - Wilson Phillips 4:03 # "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" - Joe Cocker 3:57 # "Levon" - Jon Bon Jovi 5:27 # "The Bitch is Back" - Tina Turner 3:38 # "Philadelphia Freedom" - Hall & Oates 5:12 # "Your Song" - Rod Stewart 4:49 # "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" - Oleta Adams 6:02 # "Madman Across the Water" - Bruce Hornsby 6:10 # "Sacrifice" - Sinéad O'Connor 5:12 # "Burn Down the Mission" - Phil Collins 6:58 # "Tonight" - George Michael 7:23 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Two Rooms: Celebrating the Songs of Elton John & Bernie Taupin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
