It originally appeared on John 's self - titled second studio album ( which was released in 1970 ). The song was released in the United States in October 1970 as the B - side to `` Take Me to the Pilot ''. Both songs received airplay, but `` Your Song '' was preferred by disc jockeys and replaced `` Take Me to the Pilot '' as the A-side, eventually making it to number eight on the Billboard chart. The song also peaked at number seven on the UK Singles Chart, as well as charting in the top 10 in several other countries. `` Your Song '' was first released by American rock band Three Dog Night in March 1970 on their third studio album, It Ai n't Easy. John was an opening act for the band at the time and allowed them to record it. They did not release it as a single as they wanted to let John, then an upcoming artist, have a go with it. In 1998, `` Your Song '' was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. In 2004 the song was placed at number 137 on Rolling Stone 's list of `` The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time '', as well as in its 2010 list. A demo version was included in John 's 1990 box set album To Be Continued. The song has been covered by a number of artists, including Ellie Goulding, whose version reached number two on the UK Singles Chart in late 2010, and Lady Gaga. The song was also covered by Ewan McGregor in the movie musical Moulin Rouge !

The instrumental focus is on John 's Leon Russell - influenced piano work, along with acoustic guitar, Paul Buckmaster 's string accompaniment, and a shuffling rhythm section. The lyrics express the romantic thoughts of an innocent person. John sings a straightforward love - song lyric at the beginning : `` It 's a little bit funny this feeling inside / I 'm not one of those who can easily hide / I do n't have much money but boy if I did / I 'd buy a big house where we both could live. '' At times the self - deprecating narrator stumbles to get out his feelings, which despite being a melodramatic device, AllMusic calls `` effective and sweet '' : `` Your Song '' was the inspiration for the song `` We All Fall in Love Sometimes '' on John 's 1975 album Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy. Reception `` Your Song '' was praised by critics upon its release and in subsequent years. Writing in the NME on its release Derek Johnson wrote, `` The song itself is glowing and strangely haunting, the scoring is smooth and delicate and the performance is symptomatic of a new era in pop idols. '' Bill Janovitz from AllMusic described it as a `` near - perfect song ''. In a 1975 interview with Rolling Stone, John Lennon recalled, `` I remember hearing Elton John 's ' Your Song ', heard it in America -- it was one of Elton 's first big hits -- and remember thinking, ' Great, that 's the first new thing that 's happened since we ( The Beatles ) happened. ' It was a step forward. There was something about his vocal that was an improvement on all of the English vocals until then. I was pleased with it. '' John Mendelsohn from Rolling Stone called the song a `` pretty McCartney-esque ballad ''. Commercial performance and impact `` Your Song '' rose to number eight on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number seven on the UK Singles Chart. In 2002, John re-recorded the song as a duet with opera singer Alessandro Safina for the first Sport Relief charity telethon, and it reached number four in the UK. In the US it was certified Gold and Platinum on 13 December 2012 by the Recording Industry Association of America ( RIAA ) for sales of over one million digital downloads. On 31 March 2017, it was certified Gold by the British Phonographic Industry ( BPI ), denoting sales in excess of 400,000 digital downloads.In the US in April 2018 it was certified 2x Platinum for sales of two million digital downloads by the Recording Industry Association of America.

Produced by Ben Lovett of Mumford & Sons, it was released digitally on 12 November 2010 as the re-release's lead single. The song was featured in the Christmas 2010 television advert for department store chain John Lewis. Goulding performed `` Your Song '' at the reception party of Prince William and Catherine Middleton 's wedding at Buckingham Palace on 29 April 2011, to which the couple shared their first dance. She also performed the song on Saturday Night Live on 7 May 2011, along with `` Lights ''. Goulding 's version was featured at the end of the 29 July 2011 episode of the Syfy supernatural drama series Haven, titled `` Love Machine ''. Critical reception Nick Levine of Digital Spy gave the song four out of five stars, commenting that producer Lovett `` shrouds her beautifully fluttery vocals in little but piano and strings, just adding a few harmonies towards the finish, allowing her to draw out the tenderness in Bernie Taupin 's lyrics and the utter loveliness of one of Elton John 's very best melodies. The result is a quiet, modest triumph, but a triumph nonetheless. '' Caryn Ganz of Spin magazine opined that her cover is `` everything Gaga 's Grammy version was n't -- a tender, vulnerable gift ''. Jon O'Brien critic AllMusic, in his review for Bright Lights, called it `` unimaginative '' and felt that it `` sounds out of place alongside the rest of her rather more adventurous material. '' Commercial performance `` Your Song '' debuted at number 39 on the UK Singles Chart for the week of 14 November 2010. The single jumped to number three the following week, selling 84,896 copies.
