Ok Ok
Ok Ok Ok LOL, As the resident Fag, I have to say, I think "The One" or "Can you feel the love tonight" is the best Elton song. The best gay Elvis song.....Just kidding....Betcha thought I was gonna say Elvis was a pillow biter didn't ya? heh. Cheers mates LOL.

And who would have thought that perhaps all along Elton John has been the answer to world peace?Barca wrote:This might be the only time Lushlife and I are ever in complete agreement. Rocket Man is the only Elton John song I truly love, but "Hold me close, Tony Danza" is probably my favorite lyric of the seventies.

Okay - you listen to the song "Social Disease" and tell me that you don't want to have a drink, then you just ain't the drinkin' kind!JohnnyTequila wrote:I was going to post "none of the above", because Elton John's music makes me want to stop drinking (yes, it's that bad), but then I decided I shouldn't post that in this thread.
That whole album is great, but some songs on it want to make you drink, more than others, and that song is one of them (and then there's that Candle in the Wind song, and I can see where you're comin' from).
But Social Disease sooooo makes me want to drink and be proud to be drunk . .. .I can only thank Elton John for that!'
okay, edited to type the lyrics for those that just don't know:
And I get bombed for breakfast in the morning,
I get bombed for dinner time and tea,
I dress in rags, smell a lot, and have a (real good time) (heart of gold),
I'm a genuine example of a social disease.
:lol: :lol: :D
I'm not so think as you drunk I am.

Gotta go with the early stuff like Madman across the water. After Captain Fantastic, he was a she and the whole thing was as bad as any undrunkened up rock starJohnnyTequila wrote:I was going to post "none of the above", because Elton John's music makes me want to stop drinking (yes, it's that bad), but then I decided I shouldn't post that in this thread.

And afterwords we can run amok! Or if you're too tired, we can walk amok.

That was gonna be my vote, though I have no idea about any of the lyrics apart from the "B-b-b-b-b-enny" and such... Just childhood memories. That's a cool song.JudgeLyonell wrote:"Benny and the Jets" c'mon lyrics like "mohair suit, electric boots" you just don't write shit like that anymore.

Saturday Night or Crocodile rock.
Maybe Ballad of a Well Known Gun or almost anything off his duet album with Leon Russell.
