Canción dedicada a John Lennon , de Elton John:
Empty Garden (Hey Hey Johnny) :
(Elton John/Bernie Taupin)
What happened here, As the New York sunset disappeared? I found an empty garden among the flagstones there. Who lived here? He must have been a gardener that cared a lot, Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop. And now it all looks strange. It's funny how one insect can damage so much grain.
And what's it for, This little empty garden by the brownstone door? And in the cracks along the sidewalk nothing grows no more. Who lived here? He must have been a gardener that cared a lot, Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop. And we are so amazed! We're crippled and we're dazed.... A gardener like that one, no one can replace.
And I've been knocking, but no one answers. And I've been knocking, most all the day. Oh and I've been calling ,oh hey, hey, Johnny! Can't you come out to play?
And through their tears, Some say he farmed his best in younger years. But he'd have said that roots grow stronger, if only he could hear. Who lived there? He must have been a gardener that cared a lot, Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop. Now we pray for rain, and with every drop that falls..... We hear, we hear your name.....
And I've been knocking, but no one answers. And I've been knocking, most all the day. Oh and I've been calling ,oh hey, hey, Johnny! Can't you come out to play, In your empty garden? Johnny? Can't you come out to play, in your empty garden.
Pocos saben que el último concierto en directo de John Lennon,fue el que tuvo lugar en el Madison Square Garden,el 28 de Noviembre de 1974 (el día de acción de gracias), en el que actuaba Elton John .
John Lennon ,en aquella época distanciado sentimentalmente de Yoko Ono, se reconcilió con Yoko gracias a Elton ,que invitó a ambos por separado . Lennon se reunió por sorpresa con Yoko en el camerino de Elton, tras cantar con Elton sobre el escenario tres canciones.
Según Elton, John no sabía qué canción cantar al final, y él le propuso Imagine, mas John dijo " Boring" (!) ; y acabaron tocando el primer éxito de los Beatles "I saw her standing there".
