An unreleased discarded mid-1980s demo by Elton John. This is a demo in very rough form, with just music. It seems to be simply an idea for a possible song which never really became anything. This apparently was a way for Elton to create music when he wasn't writing to Bernie Taupin's lyrics. A demo such as this would have been given to Gary Osborne or possibly Taupin, who could then write a lyric to the music. This attempt seems to have been simply discarded, however.
