Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:EngvarB Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox song "Club at the End of the Street" is an upbeat pop rock song composed by English musician Elton John with lyrics by Bernie Taupin. It was included on John's album Sleeping with the Past in 1989 and released as its third single in 1990. The song describes a night on the town between two lovers at an undisclosed nightclub. John stated in 2013 on Rolling Stone that this song was one of his favourites.[1] He performed this song 3 times live during the One Night Only concerts in 2000.[2]
The music video for the song was animated, due to John's involvement with the family of AIDS victim Ryan White.Шаблон:Citation needed
B-side
For the single release, John's rendition of the well-known John Lennon song "Give Peace a Chance" was used for the B-side. This song was also released on his 1990 box set, To Be Continued.
Chart performance
The single was a No. 28 pop hit in the US and a Top 40 hit in several countries in the summer of 1990; whilst in Denmark, where the album was recorded, it reached No. 1 for two weeks and remains one of Elton's biggest hits in that country.
Music video
The music video was produced by Animation City, an animation company in London and directed by Derek Hayes; it followed the success of the Madonna video "Dear Jessie" by the same company. The music video version of the track is slightly faster than the single and album versions.
