Elton John

[jjthefourth]

One of the greatest song writers and performers of all time.  His music is amazingly powerful.  His voice is incredible and his piano-playing is astonishing.  I saw him in concert once a few years back and was forever changed by the experience.

i think there is already an elton thread -

but i will join in incase there isn't - elton is the best -
i love so many of his songs - i really wanted to go to his show here - but couldn't - he has a home in atlanta in my friend's grandparents building - and when we were kids we used to knock on his door than get very scared - and nervous and run away

I searched for an Elton thread and couldn't find one.  So unless the board's search function doesn't work we're safe.  :wink:

I can't believe you used to knock on Elton's door!  I wish I had such crazy stories to tell.

BTW, thank you for almost always being the first person to respond to my threads.    You're so sweet like that!

I just discovered his song Never Say Goodbye (with BSB). Why have I not heard this song before... it's amazing.
