More quotes by Elton John
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.
Elton John
I heard Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis, and that was it. I didn't ever want to be anything else. I just started banging away and semi-studied classical music at the Royal Academy of Music but sort of half-heartedly.
Elton John
I don't whistle at you down the street. I would if I could, but I can't whistle you see.
Elton John
I saw you dancing out the ocean Running fast along the sand A spirit born of earth and water Fire flying from your hands
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 had progressed on stage as a performer, but I hadn't progressed as a human being.
Elton John
I used to get my money at the end of the week, buy my mum something, or buy a record, and that was it.
Elton John
The French are useless. They can't organize a piss-up in a brewery.
Elton John
I have a lot of money stashed away, but I do live my life from day to day.
Elton John
Welcome to the world of bullshit, my dear. You have arrived.
Elton John
If there's a God in heaven, what's he waiting for? If He can't hear the children, then he must see the war.
Elton John
And I trusted someone to look after me on the business side of life.
Elton John
A couple of sounds that I really like are the sounds of a switchblade and a motor bike.
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 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 never really made a full album in Los Angeles before.
Elton John
George W. Bush was passionate about AIDS. And we had a 10-minute talk at the interval of a concert at the Kennedy Center about AIDS. And I was astonished about how well-informed he was and his commitment to AIDS. And so it's the typical thing of don't judge a book by its cover until you have read the book.
Elton John
Tina Turner gave me the highway blues.
Elton John
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.
Elton John
Well, as I was saying... everyone's so nice to me, usually.
Elton John
