More quotes by Elton John
I just wish more of my fellow queers would come out sometimes. It's nice out here, you know?
Elton John
Basically, I wanted redemption for the way I lived my life beforehand, and that was the drugs, the drink, the loose sex, whatever.
Elton John
I have no one to leave the money to. I'm a single man. I like spending my money.
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
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids, in fact it's cold as hell.
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
She's got electric boots, a mohair suit, you know I read it in a magazine.
Elton John
I didn't have sex until I was 23 and that was with a man. I made up for lost time after that in a hurry. I wish I could have had sex when I was, like, 14, 15 or 16 because that's such an exciting age to have sex.
Elton John
I've had my fills of cocaine and pills.
Elton John
The Backstreet Boys can sing their asses off. I'm not so sure about those other boy bands. But Backstreet Boys have my ultimate respect.
Elton John
If you're stuck at piano and you're not a lead guitarist or a lead vocalist, you're kind of at a nine-foot plank then and you should do something about it.
Elton John
Sometimes you can't see the wood for the trees as an artist.
Elton John
I've got a great collection of photography.
Elton John
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
I don't think you can recreate anything from the past. You can not do it. If you're going to go out and imitate a Motown sound, you can't do it, it's impossible because of the studios and players involved and the atmosphere.
