I thought it was just a known fact

Like nobody has to tell you to drink water when you're thirsty

A while back I was at a friend's place and they were like "put on a record!" So I flipped thru what they had and put on Honky Chateau. They proceeded to give me shit for putting on Elton John. BITCH! IT'S YOUR RECORD!

Saturday Night is a serious GOAT

Goodbye yellow brick road was always the one I’d point people at. Just about the only lame song is candle in the wind and you get past that on side 1 but it’s sandwitched by funeral for a friend and Benny and the jets.

Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding demands to be blasted at full volume

I'm more of a Madman Across the Water guy, myself

That’s a good record!

Wakeman plays on that I think. I don’t have a copy…

Yeah, his music is pretty incredible

Elton John will slap you.

Elton John did a whole concert and tour of the USSR in 1979. He is one of the few Western artists to have done so.

Good musician, but he never apologized for "Crocodile Rock" and i gotta deduct all points for that.

Please, if you're gonna listen to Elton John, give a try to "Funeral for a friend / love lies bleeding", an 11-minute masterpiece

Nobody tell them about David Bowie.
