"Sixty Years On" fait partie du second album studio d'Elton John, titré "Elton John" et sorti en 1970. Rarement interprétée en concert, cette chanson est très sombre et parle des derniers moments d'une vie.
Cette performance fut la première en public qu'Elton donnera de ce très beau morceau. C'était dans les studios de la BBC en mars 1970 et là, l'artiste et ses deux musiciens Nigel Olsson et Dee Murray interpréteront, accompagnés par le chef d'orchestre James Newton Howard six chansons qu'ils venaient d'enregistrer.
