Rats!! I forgot about the dreaded quote-cut-off problem for thread names - I apologize, moderators, but would you please delete the dupe with the truncated title? Thanks!!
I just read a thread looking for insight on EJ/BT’s song “Levon” and it reminded me of another question - what happened to Daniel? I remember reading an article where Bernie Taupin said that somebody (a record exec? their producer Gus Dudgeon?) thought the song needed to be tighter so they cut off the last stanza and “it was really too bad, because it tied everything together”.
I haven’t checked Google, so am aware of the risk of getting Dope-slapped for not doing my homework, but I did search the SDMB…
So - Why does Daniel have scars and why is he headed to Spain? (or “Spay-ee-ay-ee-ain” for those of you who pronounce things like Mr. Dwight does…)
Thanks.
