17.06.2004 17:40 southpaw Member	***** Eifersucht, immer wieder ein gutes Thema für einen Popsong ... und hier mit viel Power umgesetzt.
17.06.2004 17:54 Rewer Crew	***** ...sehr gut...
01.07.2005 00:44 Marillion Member	****** Den ganzen Sommer 1997 durchgehört und ich kanns immer noch hören :)
23.10.2006 14:04 Werner Member	***** ...schöner Song, aufgerundete fünf...
29.12.2006 12:58 iifar Member	**** Neli on täiesti piisav.
22.07.2007 16:47 Fall Guy Member	**** Ganz netter Titel von Elton John. 1984 ein Singlehit in den USA.
remember Member	**** #16 dort, als 3. Single aus Breaking Hearts..
Widmann1 Member	***** Ich hatte die LP "Breaking hearts" damals.<br>Heutzutage kann ich mich dem Titel nicht mehr so viel anfangen.<br>Die Strophen sind zäh.
Southernman Member	**** Buena.
BeansterBarnes Member	** Peaked at #76 in Australia, 1984.
Fritz260449 Member	**** ... gut ...<br>
fleet61 Member	**** ... ganz nett ...
80er-FreakHH Member	*** Mittelmäßiger Folkpop aus der 1984er-LP "Breaking Hearts", die zweite Single, glaube ich. Hätten sie nach "Sad songs (say so much)" doch lieber die krossen Rocker "Restless" oder "Lil' Refrigerator" ausgekoppelt - DAS waren echte 'Burner', wie man heutzutage so schön sagen würde. "Who wears this Shoes" ging m.E. zum einen Ihr rein, zum anderen Ohr wieder raus und hatte nix bleibendes an sich. Last edited: 23.09.2012 03:15
hisound Member	*** Musikalisch ganz arm.
Der_Nagel Member	**** Beschwingtes Stück aus den 80er, 4*...<br><br>ergab im Herbst 1984 #50 in UK…
Kamala Member	**** ...beschwingt, fordernd und konkret stellt Mr.John hier seine Frage - kein übler Titel...4++
spatz-98 Member	****** Da kann ich sogar aufrunden. Sehr eingängiger Song.<br><br>CDN: #36, 1984<br>USA: #16, 1984
Kanndasdennsein Member	**** Durchaus ok.
Besnik Member	**** Finde das einer seiner schwächeren Singles, finde ich eher passend für eine B-Seite, da nicht wirklich stark. Trotzdem kam´s in IRL bis auf #11!
bussibär Member	**** Befriedigendes Lied aus der MC: "Breaking Hearts"
drogida007 Member	**** <br>Schöner Song von Elton 4+.
DaveNT Member	*** Similar to his previous album sound ('Too Low For Zero'). Not bad, but not all that memorable. 2.5*<br>#16 peak in USA, 1984.<br>⌜ᴰᴬ⌝ Ꮲk.⌠DNC⌡<br>
