THE GREATEST TRAGEDY OF THE COLD WAR

Wow, how amazing is this video? Savagely heterosexual Elton John pines for a Russian woman but is kept apart from her by the Iron Curtain. Toward the end, there's a fantasy sequence in which John imagines a better world, one where clashing ideologies doesn't prevent them from bowling together. It's a relic of a much different time for so many reasons.
