The song begins as Elton, having declared to the people in attendance of his house party that he is attempting suicide, falls into the swimming pool. As he sinks, he sees his younger self, played by Matthew Illesley, playing a small piano and wearing an old-fashioned space helmet. He is playing the tune of Rocketman throughout the first verse, and sings the opening three lines, as adult Elton sits at the bottom of the pool before he to begins to sing. After the first chorus, Elton is pulled from the pool, and is taken by ambulance to the hospital, with the song finally ending as he ends up on stage once more, back to performing.

Edit Made: His younger self is actually played by Matthew Illesley
