I've been singing "Oh, little Mini..." to my sickly little black cat for months now, and got a craving to hear the original 1980 "Little Jeannie" song by Elton John.
Fortunately, I have several Elton John CDs, including his '76 - '86 hits, which includes "Jeannie" plus other good songs that I like, like: I'm Still Standing, Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word, Don't Go Breaking My Heart, Empty Garden, I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues, and Sad Songs.
While I was listening to the above CD for the "Little Jeannie" song, I also remembered how much I really liked this "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" single when it first came out. (While hating the Toni Tenille bangs and the overalls.)
Today when I hear it, I mightily want to see a Taylor Swift / Kanye West version. Yes, years past the initial 2009 MTV controversy, and Kanye is currently on the outs with mainstream media... But their duet would be hilarious and GREAT!
