More quotes by Elton John
I'm the Connie Francis of rock 'n' roll.
Elton John
And I trusted someone to look after me on the business side of life.
Elton John
I'm a very wealthy man.
Elton John
Johnny, can't you come out to play in your empty garden?
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
But until we get rid of that shame, then people are going to stay underground, they are not going to get tested, and we're facing an uphill battle [with AIDS].
Elton John
And I'm afraid, in this day and age, trust, which I count so, you know, I love loyalty. I love trust.
Elton John
When Little Richard used to stand up and play it was just fabulous, and Liberace had the candlesticks and the rings and the gift of the gab. The piano's is the most ungainly rock' n' roll instrument of all time but those two people transcended it, as did Jerry Lee Lewis.
Elton John
I love people who expect me to wear great, feathery costumes- and I do it. It's like an actor getting into his costume for his part. I don't really feel that part until I'm into whatever I'm going to wear.
Elton John
George W. Bush was passionate about AIDS. And we had a 10-minute talk at the interval of a concert at the Kennedy Center about AIDS. And I was astonished about how well-informed he was and his commitment to AIDS. And so it's the typical thing of don't judge a book by its cover until you have read the book.
Elton John

Elton John
Cocaine made me talk forever. The most nonsensical rubbish that you could ever think of.
Elton John
I think people should be free to engage in any sexual practices they choose they should draw the line at goats, though.
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
A great editor is the most valuable thing you can have as an artist because, as you said, sometimes you get too close to something. I think, apart from your talent, that's why you have the career you have - because you have great people behind you.
Elton John
I've got a great collection of photography.
Elton John
I was sitting in the classroom trying to look intelligent in case the teacher looked at me.
Elton John
I didn't really know what I was until I came to America and I had sex [for the first time] in San Francisco in 1970. It was with someone of my own sex.
Elton John
Jesus wanted us to be loving and forgiving.
Elton John
Unless you show off you're not going to get noticed.
Elton John
