In audiogalaxy this song is said to be sung by Elton John, but I think that
someone imitates him....
Anyone know?

Beautiful In My Eyes is written and performed by Joshua Kadison. By no
means an Elton John impersonator! But he'll certainly thank you for the
beautiful compliment.

As a matter of fact, when interviewed early in Joshua's career (1992?) he
was compared to Elton John and said he was not really a fan of his. When
interviewers persisted that he was so good he was being compared to Elton
John, he went out and bought EJ's entire collection at the time to see what
they were talking about. After hearing what beautiful music had been
generated by Elton, he stated later that being compared to Elton John is the
greatest compliment he could possibly be paid! Cool, huh?

BTW, if you haven't figured out I'm a Joshua Kadison fan also, let me
confirm it now. His latest CD is called Vanishing America, and
unfortunately is only available via an import. If you like Painted Desert
Serenade, you should try to find this CD. The stories and beautiful music
are absolutely amazing. Since he writes all of his music and lyrics, he's
kind of an Elton and Bernie rolled into one. one gets both incredible piano
playing and great lyrics. Enjoy!

I've been an Elton John fan and collector since '75 and haven't been as
impressed with anybody else until Joshua came along . . .

This is Joshua Kadison. I have two of his cds, he sounds a lot like
EJ but professes to not be influenced by him at all.

He does sound alot like EJ, so much, in fact, that when I was at the dentist
with my daughter recently and over the speakers was an Elton sounding song,
(it wasn't Beautiful in My Eyes tho) and she said "this is Elton, isn't it?"
and I thought it very well could be, it did sound like him, but it was another
Joshua Kadison song.
