More quotes by Elton John
And I agreed with that, and I couldn't wait to change my name anyway, because I'm not too fond of the name of Reginald. It's a very kind of '50s English name.
Elton John
I've been coming to America since 1970, and it's like my second home, but I've never felt such a divided country, ever. I didn't think it would get to this point, and it breaks my heart.
Elton John
And we have come so far like that. I mean, the advances on the medication side have been enormous, and the advances on the human side have been enormous. But we still have this stigma to get rid of, and then we really will be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
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
The great thing about rock and roll is that someone like me can be a star.
Elton John
I had to learn how to function as a human being. And I really enjoyed that process.
Elton John
But you know, I have a pretty good relationship with the press and the paparazzi. It's just when they step over the line that, you know, enough's enough.
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
They [sic] ain't gonna stop me from coming here, baby.
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
I mean, Sting is one of my great buddies and I love him to death.
Elton John
The world is near escalating to World War Three and where are the leaders of each religion? Why aren't they having a conclave why aren't they coming together?
Elton John
I'm the Connie Francis of rock 'n' roll.
Elton John
Blue jean baby, LA lady, seamstress for the band. Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man. Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand.
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
Well, as I was saying... everyone's so nice to me, usually.
Elton John
Everything I thought I'd hate about having children - the crying, the screaming - nothing fazes me. I love it all and it's relaxed me.
Elton John
And I trusted someone to look after me on the business side of life.
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
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
