Elton John and Bernie Taupin have written a lovely new song for Julia Roberts' forthcoming film "Mona Lisa Smile."

The song, "The Heart of a Girl," is the only contemporary recording on an outstanding soundtrack of songs from the early 50s on this Christmas release.

[JackDanielsOldNo7]

The title is your lips are bigger than your brains

[theDentist]

I'd have thought he titled it "White Picket Fence"
in honor of those teeth.

[TheBigB]

He already wrote "The Bitch Is Back"...what else does she need?

[egarvue]

Aaah yes, this is Elton John, so beloved by Harley Davidson fans? ;-)

[Helix]

He should have called it, "I saw your lips in a dream. They were latched on the end of my hook."

[AppyPappy]

It seems to me, you lived your life
like an overrated skanky ho
Attracted to worthless losers
and lips like a freezer do'

I would have done you
but I'm a fruit
your career died out long before
Anyone gave a hoot.

[DustyMoment]

Somebody forgot to include a "BARF ALERT"!!!!

[Lil'freeper]

*wince*

too true.

[apackof2]

LOL!

Perfect combination, a left wing Hollyweird citizen and an old queen

[auboy]

LOL! Nothing's funnier than the truth.

[SquirrelKing]

LOL!

You're a poet and don't know it
A rhyme with every line

[Hank Rearden]

"Liver Lips"

Liver Lips, I luv them Liver Lips.
Ooohhh, ooohhh, ooohhh.
Oh Liver Lips, would you were a boy.

[Dionysius]

The song will sound suspiciously like "Candles in the Wind" (as do all his more recent songs). But it's touching that one has-been queen salutes another.

[Richard Kimball]

Julia Roberts is still beautiful. I don't like her politics, but she's a babe. Kirsten Dunst is also pretty cool.

Howeve, Drew Barrymore is still the queen of "the liberal chick that can give you heart pop" category.

[dmz]

I really liked Elton's Tumbleweed Connection album. Yes I said album. That and Madman Across the Water.

Once he got to Honky Tonk Chateau and then Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, I couldn't listen anymore.

"The Heart of a Girl"

"The Mouth of a Frog". Come on, Elton, you know you were thinking it...

[Hegewisch Dupa]

I had no idea she died

[1Old Pro]

Me thinks Sir Elton would rather write a love song for Princess Charles.

[<1/1,000,000th%]

I'm sure it's no coincidence that writers Lawrence Konner and Mark Rosenthal chose the year they did; the world is just on the precipice of rock and roll, the civil-rights movement and a new social, sexual awakening.

Once again I'm out of the loop.
