    That wasnt just being nice on Eltons part; when your parents are miserable and together, it rubs off on you as a child. Your selfesteem lowers, and you yourself feel like a failure, because you always identify with your parents up to some degree. So when you finally see them happy, you know there's happiness & self love to be found for you too... I know this from my own, and working experience. Other than that, the loyalty of a childfor its parents is deep. And Elton obviously is a loyal child. Bless his heart.

    I can’t believe that my parents are divorcing, they lived separately for years so it makes it easier for me and my siblings. I had a tough and happy childhood. My dad is like Elton’s dad, he wasn’t loved as a kid hence was very hard for him to show love to my mom and my siblings. I think he loved as much as he could but he wasn’t the warmest and caring father on this planet. Thank God my mom is the complete opposite, full of love and care. I think I came out ok because of my mom. Thnx Mom for not giving up on me ❤️ Also she’s been free of him for about 5 years and she is the happiest since then...can’t believe they are filing for divorce just now.....should have done it 5 years ago. Cause they could have been truly free of each other. I don’t know if he has anyone in his life, but whatever if he does I don’t really mind or care. As long as everyone is happy.

    It is good and I was glad to hear that is how everyone wanted to do it, be himself. But Elton in those days is possibly the most underrated singer. He could hit highs that only few ever had, he was amazing and Taron isn't on that level. But again, this was by design. I just wanted to say you really can't recreate Elton's voice in that era, if you could, go find your Bernie and make us some new tunes!

    1sTEfFaniE1 😩 Random or NOT...the point is that Elton (a 72 y/o senior citizen) knows more 'bout today's young up & coming artists than that of the TARGETED 21 y/o audience youth ya knob! To point out is Elton's job to take notice of the new artists 'cos it's his industry is obvious as he's not quite ready to give it up completely. Yes, Elton's retiring from touring & him transitioning himself to radio & mentoring will KEEP HIM YOUNG AT HEART. However, THIS has NOTHING to do with Rayr's point that Elton knows more 'bout upcoming artist than him, a 21 y/o youth. In fact, it's a compliment to Elton: a) for being interested in them in the first place & b) wanting to help those he can to STILL have a hand in helping those young folks in this hard-doggy industry. 😩 Why do some ppl feel they can just shit all over someone's random post that gives love/homage 🙄? 🤨 Why not like or dislike the post w/o trying to belittle them or throwing shade😐?

That time has passed. Each generation has their heroes, and he's more respected for understanding that vs. fighting tooth and nail against it. Kudos.

    Since I'm not into, or don't pay attention to, or am not (that) impressed with new or modern bands, and, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, despite NOT owning ONE Elton John CD, ( I'm more into AC/DC, Ozzy, and Judas Priest, among others), I, TOO, am looking forward to seeing this movie! By the way, did you see, the movie, Bohemian Rhapsody?

    AngelofAnguish YES it was one of my favorites. You just reminded me to buy the blue ray (thank you lol). Rami did such an amazing freaking job! I’m into a TON of oldies too 🖤🖤

    The nickname “Uncle Elton” really fits-he seems to be a mentor figure for a lot of younger artists & celebrities

    Im crying right now man. Elton had a really difficult life. Im so proud of him. So proud of actor's work.
