Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the album Don't Shoot Me I'm Only The Piano Player
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
They say Spain is pretty though I've never been
Well Daniel says it's the best place that he's ever seen
Oh and he should know, he's been there enough
Lord I miss Daniel, oh I miss him so much
Daniel my brother you are older than me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal
Your eyes have died but you see more than I
Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
Oh God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes

This is my favourite Elton John's song. It's never played on the radio. I guess there aren't many people who like it. Ice on Fire's his best album too.

This is a great song from the brilliant 'Ice on Fire' album.
I bought the cassette and listened all day.
ThanXs for posting!

"He came from a lot of blues and funk. And he did have that soulful quality about himself that wasn't typical in the artists of his day."
"Satellite" was one of the many dozens of great soulful numbers that fell under the musical genius's radar, due to his 1976 interview with "Rollingstone" magazine.
Whatever he had, it just agreed with me.
It always did!

Sadly, most Elton fans don't receive this or Leather Jackets well. They were not perfect albums, but they did have some worthy tracks that I'd just put into one album! Satellite is one of them=:)
