Thread: Why do I like Elton John?

Everytime I play this song or hear it, I dry cry...

Elton John has written some of the finest songs of the past 50 years. Not really my cup of tea, but I respect his good stuff.

Most people say that you're gay when you listen to Elton... but have no problem with pining away with the new Elton John, "Sam Smith"... who sounds a lot like the R&B American singer "Tank". lolol...

You're secretly gay. There are only three types of people who post here. The out gay people like Lyle. People who are secretly gay and know it and people who are secretly gay but just don't know it yet. You're obviously in the third category.

He writes some catchy tunes that is why. I'm still standing is a classic.

I really love Amoreena, it sucks it wasn't a bigger hit!



It plays at the start of the classic film Dog Day Afternoon (it's the only song in the movie).

Co written, but one of the greatest love songs.

Don't wish it away
Don't look at it like it's forever
Between you and me I could honestly say
That things can only get better

And while I'm away
Dust out the demons inside
And it won't be long before you and me run
To the place in our hearts where we hide

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

Just stare into space
Picture my face in your hands
Live for each second without hesitation
And never forget I'm your man

Wait on me girl
Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

Wait on me girl
Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues

Tell that to Harley Davidson fans.

Their 100th.. anniversary.

Surprise performance and who comes out? Elton John, damn it got quiet. I think they would have preferred an aging Billy Idol over John.

Okay writer, but not the one to rev up the engines of a 100 thousand bike riders. That shit pissed them off. they talked about it for weeks on talk radio lol!

Elton is the man... lol...

A man not like Nikita, but a man just like Daniel. And he made no Sacrifice at all to be the man either.

Agree Miles - not really my cup of tea but has written some damn fine songs

Tiny Dancer my favourite

I even liked Passengers which most people hated
