Elton John

Another week another artist! For this post I wanted to include an English singer, songwriter, pianist, and composer ELTON JOHN. A little description of him going back to where he first started included his partnership with lyricist Bernie Taupin in 1967 which they have collaborated for over 30 albums. In addition to my posts, Elton John is also listed one of the best-selling music artist who has sold more than 300 million records! John has received five Grammy Awards, two Academy Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, a Tony Award, a Disney Legends awards, and the Kennedy Center Honor.

Yep, you guessed it! I myself have one of his record albums and I LOVE his music. John was raised in the Pinner are of London and starting playing the piano at a very early age. Back in 2013, he was ranked in the most successful male solo artist on the Billboard Hot 100 Top All-Time Artist AND third overall. (behind the Beatles and Madonna.) Elton John even performed at numerous royal events. Princess Diana’s funeral would be a good example.

Some of my favorite songs include: “Rocket Man,” “Tiny Dancer,” “I’m Still Standing,” “Your Song,” and “Don’t Go Breaking my heart.“
