The B-Side is credited to The Elton John Band, but, because of the Lennon vocals, under the song title, the record label states, "Featuring John Lennon. " This song plays in Philadelphia's Franklin Institute Imax Theater before every show to express the city's love for freedom and impact on shaping the country.
