[Music] Your favourite Elton John songs

[Icy Gull]

Seems appropriate given that he is playing locally. We may have even done it before?

I am more of a fan of his early stuff but this one brings back memories of how close we came to winning the FA Cup. I clearly remember Steve Wright dedicating it to all Albion fans on his Monday show the day after we lost the replay.

Elton played Home Park Plymouth a few years ago, I didn't go but it was a warm still night, we had the bedroom windows open, he may as well have been singing in the room, amazing quality sound for a live gig.
I really respect Elton for the amount of years he has been around, and his early stuff was the soundtrack of growing up more than any other artist, especially the Goodbye Yellow Brick Road album.
I have many favourites, but it's probably Tiny Dancer.
Captain Fantastic is a great album but his very early stuff was also good.
He also has a massive knowledge of all types of music and many artists right up to the music of today.
A true legend of a time when the UK produced so many world wide superstars and bands.
Raised millions for charity.
A true legend.

Impossible choice to make, I can think of a dozen off the top of my head.

I always associate "Sacrifice" with half time music at the Goldstone, playing as I sat down on the North Stand terrace to read my programme. No idea why that, of all things, has stuck in the memory.

Saw him do this live at Wembley Stadium. Stunning guitar work by Davey Johnstone, great song.
