About
"Something About The Way You Look Tonight/Candle in the Wind" is a tribute single release by Sir Elton John that is dedicated to Princess Diana, who was killed in a deadly car crash during her visit in Paris, France in 1997, and was a good friend to him. The single contains the song "Something About The Way You Look Tonight" from the 1997 album "The Big Picture" and a rewrite of "Candle in the Wind", which was made famous on the 1973 album (and his seventh album) "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road", but with the inclusion of a string quartet and woodwinds added. The single gained praise from critics, was a critical success, and all of the proceeds made from it went to charity.
