Elton John performing live his song "Burn Down The Mission" at The Royal Opera House in 2002. Performed with The Elton John Band, The Royal Academy of Music Symphony Orchestra & Musical Theatre Choir
For all of the oppressed, occupied, suffering people of the world, especially in Syria and Palestine I hope you find meaning in this song. There comes a point, a breaking point where you cannot take anymore punishment, torment or persecution, then you must burn it down, whether it is literally or figuratively. Make this your song.
One of the best versions of this song performed by Elton John.
