This song was released twice in the UK. Back in 1983 it was his debut single and it peaked at #47. Then after the success of "Wouldn't It Be Good" and the top 20 "Dancing Girls", I guess the record company decided to reissue the single. That same single climbed all the way to #2. I play this song daily, I absolutely love it to death! Warning this is not a remake of that Elton John classic! www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqqXMXpyAkE |

Nik could make a comeback doing a CD of Elton John song cover versions.

This is a great song. Human Racing was one of my most listened to albums from the mid 1980's period. Warning this is not a remake of that Elton John classic! If I remember right, I believe Nik originally wrote this song in response to the Elton John song, hence they have similar titles. |
