Elton John was one of the most popular musicians of the 20th
century. I grew up listening to Elton with my parents, and there has always
been a very nostalgic feeling left behind every time his music is played. His
music is amazingly beautiful and inspiring to say the least. The way he puts
his whole self into the piano when he plays and sings his perfectly crafted
songs. He has done so much
inspiring work for the search for a cure for AIDS including starting the Elton
John AIDS Foundation which is working towards an “AIDS Free Future!”. I love
the way that he embraced his fabulous bisexual (later to come out as a gay man)
nature and went all out in everything he did, always putting on an incredibly elaborate
show. Elton was and still is a British singer, pianist, composer and has even
has his success on Broadway, composing the music score for Billy Elliot. He has
sold more than 250 million records and continues to be a huge inspiration for
many people around the world.
