More quotes by 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
When I say I don't have to write pop songs anymore, there's no way I'm going to get on the radio at 60 years of age unless I'm doing a duet with [Lady] Gaga or I was on All of the Lights, which was a Kanye West record that managed to get on the radio.
Elton John
I am in deep shock. I have lost a beloved friend [George Michael] - the kindest, most generous soul and a brilliant artist. My heart goes out to his family and all of his fans.
Elton John
I never really made a full album in Los Angeles before.
Elton John
Better to build a bridge than a wall.
Elton John
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
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
Holy Moses, let us live in peace. Let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease. There's a man over there, what's his colour I don't care, he's my brother, let us live in peace.
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
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
And there are men behind bars who pray for the light and there are men in the suburbs who pray for the night.
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
You can cage the songbird, but you can't make her sing. And you can trap the free bird, but you'll have to clip her wings.
Elton John
It seems to me, sorry seems to be the hardest word.
Elton John
I am totally against the war but violence is part of mankind and it's going to happen, but as musicians I think we've got to step up and say 'come on'.
Elton John
My old man is drunker than a barrel full of monkeys, but my old lady she don't care.
Elton John
I have a much better relationship with the press than I did, I think because I stood my ground.
Elton John
That's just a part of being an artist: you can't write great stuff all the time, because if you did, then you'd be inhuman. The human side of people is that sometimes they fail.
Elton John
Shock waves to a tired brain, sends that hungry lady to my door again. She's my shelter from the storm when I feel the rain, entertaining white powder.
Elton John
And it's one more beer and I don't hear you any more.
Elton John
