Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word
"Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word" is a song written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin. It was recorded by Elton John and released in 1976, both as a single and as part of the "Blue Moves" album. It was John's second single released by The Rocket Record Company. The song is a mournful ballad about a romantic relationship which is falling apart.

The song also appeared the following year on "Greatest Hits Volume II", though for copyright reasons it no longer appears on the current version of that album. It now appears on "Greatest Hits 1976–1986", "The Very Best of Elton John" and in "Greatest Hits 1970–2002", as well as a number of other compilations.
