    Elton is one of the greatest musicians/pianists of all time, and has countless hits spanning decades (and has actually made some new collaboration songs on the past couple months). I suggest “Rocket Man” for a start.

    I grew up in the 70s. Born in 1960. The 70s were the absolute best!!! We had the best music, drinking age was 18. I smoked cigarettes infront of my parents from the age of 16! I started at 14. Back then it was no big deal! We all got along for the most part. I think mainly we were all listening to the same music! Black, white it didn't matter. And so we all got the same message. And yes alot of the music was about drugs but it was also about peace and love and anti war......any way we had a blast!✌❤

Below are a few of my personal favorites, but trust me when I tell you that barely scratches the surface. Love live Sir Elton John!!

    Wow this was released in 1973, yikes I was 14 and a freshman in high school. Elton was British pop master artist. He just kept getting better and better. Elton and the piano, like no other artist. You have a pantheon of in incredible music to explore. Have fun!
    Eminem did make some comment years ago about Elton being gay but I saw Elton do an interview and they are really good friends now. So everyone grows up and moves on. At least... we used to.

So yeah almost 3 years for a show,but I know he will be worth it and we already bought the tickets, lol, cost us $850.00 for both of us...yes please do more.. Someone Saved My Life Tonight and Little Jeannie are two of my faves but you can`t go wrong with any..Keep On Rockin`
