Bill Forrest I Feel Like a Bullet in the Gun of Robert Ford
This is one of my favorite JohnTaupin collaborations, and, unjustly, it seems nobody EVER recognises it, but it usually is wellrecieved. Taupin s lyrics compare the shooting, from behind, of notorious outlaw Jesse James by his fellow gang member and equally notorious Robert Ford, to Taupin s failed marriage to his first wife. It s an amazing set of lyrics set to a powerful melody, and a definite challenge to sing
