I Want Love

And here's another... "I Want Love" by Elton John

It's a 2001 song by Elton John, co-written with Bernie Taupin. A solid tune, sung with a western drawl, or something. American-y.

"I Want Love" was nominated for a Grammy award in 2002 for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.

The music video was shot with the actor Robert Downey Jr. walking through Greystone Mansion and lip-syncing the song. Video director Sam Taylor-Wood shot 16 takes of the video and used the last one because, according to John, Downey looked completely relaxed, and, "The way he underplays it is fantastic". (Wikipedia)

I quite like the video, actually... Can't help but think it's about gay sex, tho.
