More quotes by Elton John
What record companies do these days is drain the blood dry of an album, take six singles off it, and harm the longevity of artists' careers by doing it.
Elton John
I love to work. It fascinates me. And I love seeing who's coming up, who's got the charisma to last, who's got the intelligence to move on to other things. I'm so glad now that I'm stuck behind the piano, because when you're getting older it's very hard to waddle around the stage.
Elton John
Welcome to the world of bullshit, my dear. You have arrived.
Elton John
I've always enjoyed and loved playing live. I relish and cherish it more than anything else because you never know what the performance is going to be.
Elton John
You get the same equal rights that we do when we have a civil partnership. Heterosexual people get married. We can have civil partnerships.
Elton John
Well, as I was saying... everyone's so nice to me, usually.
Elton John
Ask anyone. If it hadn't been for Elvis, I don't know where popular music would be. He was the one that started it all off, and he was definitely the start of it for me.
Elton John
When stars collide, like you and I, no shadow blocks the sun - The One
Elton John
An agent is a person who is sore because an actor gets 90% of what they make.
Elton John
I grew up at my grandmother's house, and she had a beautiful garden. I used to hate mowing the lawn and weeding, which is what you do when you're a kid. I loathe gardening, but I love gardens, and I have two beautiful gardens.
Elton John
Unless you show off you're not going to get noticed.
Elton John
Jesus wanted us to be loving and forgiving.
Elton John
I am the most well-known homosexual in the world.
Elton John
Johnny, can't you come out to play in your empty garden?
Elton John
I am totally against the war but violence is part of mankind and it's going to happen, but as musicians I think we've got to step up and say 'come on'.
Elton John
That's just a part of being an artist: you can't write great stuff all the time, because if you did, then you'd be inhuman. The human side of people is that sometimes they fail.
Elton John
I have a much better relationship with the press than I did, I think because I stood my ground.
Elton John
I love every minute of fatherhood, staying up all night, changing nappies, kids crying, I find it really funny and inspiring. It connects you to the world in a new way.
Elton John
I do work a lot. I mean, most of my income, I would say, comes from live performances. And then you've got publishing, you've got record royalties.
Elton John
And there's no guarantee that if you get HIV and you take these triple therapies, or whatever comes along next, that they're going to be successful for you.
Elton John
