Sir Elton John (Born 1947 in Pinner, England) is an Award Winning English Singer, Songwriter, and Composer, and one of the most successful artists in music history. To date, he has sold over 200 Million records worldwide in a career which started in the 1960′s in England. His extensive collection of awards includes 5 Grammy Awards, an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award, and a Tony Award. To date, he has had 56 top-40 hits on the Billboard Charts including 9 songs that went to #1. In 1994 he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. His many chart hits include “Crocodile Rock”, “Philadelphia Freedom”, “I’m still standing”, “Tiny Dancer”, “Candle in the Wind”, “Bennie and the Jets”, “Don’t let the sun go down on me”, “Little Jeannie”, “The Bitch is Back”, “Levon”, “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road”, “Lucy in the sky with diamonds”, “Don’t go breaking my heart”, “Island Girl”, “Daniel”, “Nikita”, “The One”, “Circle of Life”, “Can you feel the love tonight”, “Blue Eyes”, and countless others. I had the opportunity to see Elton John in concert with Billy Joel and he is one of the best stage performers I have ever seen. His list of hit songs is so extensive that he can play for 2 hours in concert and not come close to playing even half of the hit songs he has had in his career.
