MESSAGE TO VIEWERS: [Click on "Show More" for rest of this message & description] I am sad to find out that several people have copied and re-posted most of my videos, using my exact same titles (this video is among over 400 videos that they have copied from me). The descriptions are either shown as I originally wrote them, partially shown, completely left out, or completely changed!! These copied videos often have different thumbnail pictures but sometimes they're the same. I have spent hundreds of hours preparing and uploading these videos and it is VERY UPSETTING & DISCOURAGING to discover this RAMPANT COPYING & RE-POSTING! It is just PLAIN MEAN! I would appreciate it very much if you would avoid any videos by "All Star Party" & "Kirdie Ferdin". Thanks to all of you for your views of my originally posted videos and your subscriptions to my channel. Sincerely, Violet Pearl. 4-17-2015 About this video: ROBERT DOWNEY, JR., introduces honoree ELTON JOHN at the 27th Kennedy Center Honors awards ceremony, 2004. Performers paying tribute to Elton are BILLY JOEL, FANTASIA, KID ROCK, AND HEATHER HEADLEY. The other honorees this evening are Warren Beatty, Ossie Davis & Ruby Dee, Joan Sutherland, and John Williams. I have posted the other honorees separately. This is the year that Walter Cronkite relinquished his position as "Master of Ceremonies". See my video "Walter Cronkite 'surrenders' his position at Kennedy Center Honors to Caroline Kennedy". 50hellkat2 He did dance us into the night and sang us home.  I lived it.   A wonderful time for music if you were in your teens at the time.  50hellkat2 Kid Rock is with out a doubt a rocker and the best there is.  Golden.  ·  50hellkat2 Imagine Billy Joel singing The Bitch is Back.  Ha.  He liked singing that word Bitch.  Denise Layne Fantasia's version of Elton John's Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word... just breathtaking... 16:24 RockNet Venezuela Heather Headley, what a performance... Mark Macmillan How do these American Idol / X Factor people get these gigs? Wally Smith I believe Elton was winching when Kid Rock mutilated his song. Rui Calado your song!amazing. Sue Walsh Jack Nickelson grooving! Love it! hollie ernst Heather, You made me cry!!  Well done!!!   Gemini Mark I have to agree CWP, Heather absolutely nailed "Your Song"! She is truly an awesome talent!  Suz Hemner Tumbleweed Connection remains one of the best albums ever; thanks  to Elton's collaboration with Bernie Taupin. Beyond excellent.   marci stowell elton is like none other artist!! David Rivera Elton got his huge break playing piano for LaBelle as their pianist. When they were on vacation Elton aka Reginald got a recording contract and had a gig at spectrum in Philadelphia he invited Patti to come see his show and she they say was amazed shocked and awestruck that Reggie was now Elton John. I love that story
