sounds shady to me... and confusing. I think he is ***... just based on him as an individual and a performer.

(why is *** a bad word to say on this forum?)

A true inspiration to us all!
 

Definitely one of my inspirations.

lol, dude, he is not gay! He never was. He's never been known to have been in any homosexual relationship, and besides, he never claimed to be - he simply said in a 70s interview that he was bisexual (as he liked it as part of his image); he retracted it in the early 80s, admitting that he never was and expressing how much he regretted what he said in that 70s interview. He's been married to a supermodel for many many years and has kids.

Hey, I don't know and neither do you... ya never know what kind of marriage arrangements people make, his wife could swing both ways for all you know. Anyway, I always assumed Bowie could be both and he probably could... what he says doesn't mean much because people will always BS to cover their own asses and the asses of their family.

See, even more proof he is probably g a y... he likes to cover asses :)

I'm rocking the **** out to Crocodile Rock right now!

Elton John is awesome, especially cause he made a song about Philly!!



i also love Tiny Dancer, Benny and the Jets, and Crocodile Rock

anyone know any good albums i could get from him?

Elton John is abundantly talented and it's pity he's thrown it away doing mainstream pop drivel. He reminds me of Paul McCartney, another talented singer and awesome bass player who done nothing but saccharine muck since 1970.

Tumbleweed Connection is my favorite Elton John album which ironically is overlooked by many of Elton's biggest fans. For me, Tumbleweed Connection is the high musical standard by which his later work fails so miserably to measure up to.

I think that early Elton is fantastic Tiny Dancer is one of my all time favorite tunes, also Your Song, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, and i think his version of Pinball Wizard from The Who's Tommy was excellent. But i am not too keen on his material from the 80's onwards.

I'm just listening to his classic 70's stuff. I've beenn listening to Radiohead a lot lately and have overdoesed on it so as a reaction, or over-reaction I'm going to listen to some really middle of the rd. unpretencious music for a while.

...I simply love this song...


Can You Feel the Love Tonight



...and can You feel the Love tonight
it is where We are...
...it's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
that We've got this far...
...and can You feel the Love tonight
how it's laid to rest...
...it's enough to make Kings and vagabonds
believe the very best...


...but I'm mostly a fan of his early songs...


Your Song




I know it's not much...
...but it's the best I can do
my gift is my song...
...and this one's for You

I hope You don't mind...
...that I put down in words
how wonderful life is...
...while You're in the world
