I think this new Elton John track has a strong Motown feel.

I agree misterc, it does sound very Motown-ish to me! Good track. :)

I could hear the four tops on this one.

Wow! I love this! If I didn't know better, I would have sworn it's a previously-unreleased Motown track from the vaults. And you're right, arr&bee -- it's got Levi's name stamped all over it! We'll pretend this was the demo that Elton cut for Levi to learn the tune! HaHa!!!

I really like the song. As folk say above, it has a strong Four Tops vibe.

The intro reminds me of the Velvelettes' A Bird In The Hand which is no bad thing!

Well done Elton!
