I'm Still Standing

Momentum

This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.

Why it's here

The song's music video, choreographed by Arlene Phillips and shot on the French Riviera, was pushed by MTV to help make the track a transatlantic hit. [1] The restored 2019 version of the original music video was used as the closing sequence of the biopic Rocketman, with Taron Egerton rotoscoped into the classic scenes. [2] The track was recorded with Elton John's longtime band of Davey Johnstone, Dee Murray and Nigel Olsson, and produced by Chris Thomas. [3]

In culture

Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.
