In 1997, Sir Elton John performed a special version of ‘Candle In The Wind’ at Princess Diana’s funeral. According to the Guinness Book of Records, ‘Candle in the Wind 1997’ is the second highest selling single of all time (behind Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas” from 1942), and it is the highest selling single since charts began in the 1950s. I still remember exactly where I was when Princess Diana died… May she continue to rest in peace.
Enjoy this look back at Elton John performing a special version of Candle in the Wind at Princess Diana’s funeral.
