"Bad Side of the Moon" is a song by Elton John with lyrics by Bernie Taupin. It's the B-side of his single Border Song, and was originally released in 1970. It was included on the reissue of his self-titled album in 1995 and on his live album, 17-11-70. It is also possible to hear a version on Here and There. The song starts with nothing but a marching drum beat and Elton singing, but then goes into a somewhat funky verse and chorus with heavy orchestration, which lasts throughout the song.

The English rock band Toe Fat covered it in 1970. The Canadian rock band April Wine covered it in 1971. It still gets frequent airplay on most rock radio stations.
  • Bad Side of the Moon è una canzone scritta ed interpretata da Elton John. Il testo è di Bernie Taupin. È un brano decisamente rock, uscito come B-side del singolo Border Song, proveniente dall'album omonimo dell'artista (pubblicato nel 1970). Raramente eseguita in concerti, è tuttavia presente, insieme ad altri brani come Can I Put You On, Sixty Years On e Amoreena, nell'album 17-11-70 (il primo album live di Elton). Il testo di Taupin descrive la situazione opprimente che viveva all'epoca il paroliere, e può essere paragonato a quello di The Cage. Nel 1995 la canzone è stata inserita nella versione rimasterizzata dell'album Elton John, insieme a Grey Seal e a Rock n Roll Madonna. Era comunque già stata precedentemente inserita in altre raccolte (come Elton John's Lady Samantha del 1980 e To Be Continued del 1990).
