More quotes by 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
The great thing about rock and roll is that someone like me can be a star.
Elton John
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.
Elton John
Unless you show off you're not going to get noticed.
Elton John
Music has healing power. It has the ability to take people out of themselves for a few hours.
Elton John
I think performers are all show-offs anyway, especially musicians. Unless you show off, you're not going to get noticed.
Elton John
People say, You should write lyrics and I say I'm quite happy not to, because I like being part of that process where you write your version of what someone else's lyrics are saying to you, and that enjoyment has never changed.
Elton John
I have no one to leave the money to. I'm a single man. I like spending my money.
Elton John
Don't let the sun go down on me Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Elton John
What we should be doing as musicians is trying to bring people together.
Elton John
I really appreciate my performing so much better, as I get older. I don't take it for granted anymore. I really relish it and love it.
Elton John
I'm not everybody's cup of tea. But sometimes criticism can be hurtful. Be respectful I'm a good piano player, I can sing well, I write good songs. If you don't like it, fair enough. But give me a break.
Elton John
It seems to me, sorry seems to be the hardest word.
Elton John
Don't show up around here until your social worker's helped.
Elton John
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.
Elton John
In the '50s you weren't taught about sex whatsoever. It was never just talked about. People used to snoop behind their curtains and look at the neighbors. And if a girl became pregnant in your part of the world, she was shipped off to the countryside.
Elton John
Sometimes when I’m flying over the Alps I think, 'that’s like all the cocaine I sniffed.'
Elton John
You know, it's a very treatable disease. You shouldn't feel ashamed. But I'm afraid that's carried on very much so from the first days of AIDS, when it was basically a gay disease. And then, of course, you know, it affected everybody.
Elton John
I've had my fills of cocaine and pills.
Elton John
I don't have to compete in the charts. I can just be myself as a musician, a songwriter and play with the musicians that I really love.
Elton John
