I don't have to compete in the charts. I can just be myself as a musician, a songwriter and play with the musicians that I really love.

I do like Britney Spears. I think she's cute. I think she's fun. And I like her records. You know, I'm not a pop snob whatsoever. I think she makes great pop records.

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

And it's one more beer and I don't hear you any more.
Elton John
Image
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
Image
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

I rarely wear tennis shoes. I'm 5' 8', I hate being short.
Elton John
Image
It's like trying to drink whisky from a bottle of wine.
Elton John

Oh teacher, I need you like a little child, you got something in you to drive a school boy wild.

I mean, Sting is one of my great buddies and I love him to death.
