More quotes by Elton John
A couple of sounds that I really like are the sounds of a switchblade and a motor bike.
Elton John
I've been following him since Space Oddity. And I've followed him from all those albums that didn't sell, like The Man Who Sold The World and things like that. Above all, apart from all the glamorous rubbish, the music's there. Ziggy Stardust is a classic album.
Elton John
I used to take hostages in my relationships and not let people be independent. It always ended in disaster, because you take away people's identity and they end up full of resentment.
Elton John
And I agreed with that, and I couldn't wait to change my name anyway, because I'm not too fond of the name of Reginald. It's a very kind of '50s English name.
Elton John
I don't want a Jennifer Lopez wedding or anything like that. A commitment ceremony would be a nice thing to do.
Elton John
I just think you shouldn't expect people to pay money to see someone sing live and then lip-synch.
Elton John
I've had an amazing professional life, personal life, but at 64 to have a son who gives us that much love and enjoyment is, wow!
Elton John
We have come so far. It's become a real bipartisan cause, which I'm very happy to see. And in the case of America, and it's - certainly, without America, we'd be facing catastrophe.
Elton John
But you know, I have a pretty good relationship with the press and the paparazzi. It's just when they step over the line that, you know, enough's enough.
Elton John
Cocaine made me talk forever. The most nonsensical rubbish that you could ever think of.
Elton John
...I'm so over the tattoos and the T-shirts and rings through the noses. It's not pretty, it's not pleasant, it's not exciting. Please stop it now.
Elton John
I'd walk a million miles to give her what she needs. But she would walk a million more to do what she believes.
Elton John
I rarely wear tennis shoes. I'm 5' 8', I hate being short.
Elton John
Nothing should be an issue when it comes to sexuality in the first place. Music is the one artform where people feel comfortable coming out.
Elton John
As a child, as a teenager, I was kind of not allowed to wear fashionable clothes.
Elton John
Tina Turner gave me the highway blues.
Elton John
I'm still as fascinated with the music business as ever. I'd love to do an electronic album like Prodigy or Underworld. I really like that sort of music.
Elton John
Well, as I was saying... everyone's so nice to me, usually.
Elton John
You and your oven are capable of great things,Remember, no two ovens are the same.
Elton John
And the stigma hasn't really changed that much in 31 years. You are still getting people - it's a shame-based disease. It's based on sexual transmission. And it's still shame-based. And until people feel strong enough and feel loved enough to actually open up and say, listen, I'm HIV-positive, then we are facing an uphill battle.
Elton John
