More quotes by Elton John

Image
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.

Johnny, can't you come out to play in your empty garden?

I've always been a fan, so my enthusiasm has always been great, but it's never going to be the same as it was from 1970 to 1975. You cannot repeat that, but you can get inspired by searching, by being mystified.

I get upset when people knock hip-hop, because I can absolutely see the musicality in it. These days, when I'm listening to records by hip-hop artists, I hear the production. It's just astounding how great the productions have become.

I tour as many countries as possible, and I've toured every state in America, plus every province in Canada.

I have an optimistic view of everything. You have to, otherwise you'd go nuts.

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.

I just wish more of my fellow queers would come out sometimes. It's nice out here, you know?
Elton John
Image
And I'm afraid, in this day and age, trust, which I count so, you know, I love loyalty. I love trust.

It's like trying to drink whisky from a bottle of wine.
Elton John
Image
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear, you're a butterfly, and butterflies are free to fly, fly away, high-away, bye-bye.
Elton John
Image
Holy Moses, let us live in peace. Let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease. There's a man over there, what's his colour I don't care, he's my brother, let us live in peace.
Elton John
Image
I'm going to fight for human rights, whether I do it silently behind the scenes or vocally so that I get locked up. I can't just sit back it's not in my nature. I can't sit back and blindly ignore it, and I won't.

I don't want a Jennifer Lopez wedding or anything like that. A commitment ceremony would be a nice thing to do.
Elton John
Image
Rock and roll came in and changed my life and changed the whole music scene forever, and then I grew to love R&B and Motown and all black music, gospel music. But I never dismiss any form of music. I listen to everything.

A great editor is the most valuable thing you can have as an artist because, as you said, sometimes you get too close to something. I think, apart from your talent, that's why you have the career you have - because you have great people behind you.
Elton John

Yeah. I have been with David Furnish for eight years, now.

I want a love that don't mean a thing.

There is nothing wrong with going to bed with someone of your own sex. People should be very free with sex, they should draw the line at goats.

It's very important to have two tiaras when you're on the road. You never know when you'll be invited to something really formal.
