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

Anyone who lip-synchs in public on stage when you pay 75 pounds to see them should be shot.

My mother encouraged me and was very great about me being gay, but she always encouraged me to follow my musical dreams, which I'm very grateful for.
Elton John
Image
I want to do a musical movie. Like Evita, but with good music.
Elton John
Image
I can't think of anything until I've got printed words in front of me. I never wake up in the middle of the night with a song in my head.
Elton John
Image
Love's like a junkie, addiction's a fact. Passion's a monkey, you can't keep off your back.
Elton John

I can't talk about - as eloquently as everyone else about a prevention or medicine or, you know, funding, but I can talk about the human element, which is the main part of AIDS, because it comes to the human being and how they are being treated, what medicines they are on and what medicines they are not on.
Elton John
Image
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

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
I'm 57, I can't look like a 30-year-old. You try to hold age at bay, but there comes a point when you just have to give up gracefully.
Elton John
Image
Don't shoot me, I'm just the piano player!
Elton John

I think religion has always tried to turn hatred towards gay people. Religion promotes the hatred and spite against gays. But there are so many Christian people I know who are gay and love their religion...
Elton John
Image
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.

I rarely wear tennis shoes. I'm 5' 8', I hate being short.
Elton John
Image
I like Stevie Wonder. I usually wind up playing the same old tapes in the car.
Elton John
Image
There is such a thing as good interference from your record label. I don't think I get enough interference from my record label.
Elton John

To fight the violence we must be brave, hold on strong to the love God gave.
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
Image
People with HIV are still stigmatized. The infection rates are going up. People are dying. The political response is appalling. The sadness of it, the waste.
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.
