...Elton, 70, once saying Keith, 74, looked like a "monkey with arthritis".

I've heard less apt descriptions of Keith Richard.

Is Keith Richards saying that Elton John occupies the same music space as The Rolling Stones?

Seriously?

“Rivalry”, oh please. I don’t consider them in the same league at all.

Elton likes boys

"Keith criticised him for re-recording his 1973 tribute to Marilyn Monroe, Candle in the Wind, in memory of Princess Diana."

I agree with Keith, that song sucked!

A “spat” that gets them both some publicity. A real duel with pistols or swords would be more interesting for the public.

One could say honestly that , for both of them, their best work is thirty years in the past.

Keith is probably still ticked off that Elton skipped his funeral. When was that, 2005? I forget.

Elton was caught with child porn boarding an airplane in 2007, but was let go. In 1999 one of his concerts featured male strippers dressed as boy scouts. They guy is sick.

Ask Keith Richards: Do you believe in aliens?

I saw The Stones in concert last year in Buffalo, NY.

For three hours straight, not one person in the 80,000 seat stadium sat down.

Including me. And my nearly 60 year old ass doesn’t stand that long for anything.

Elton may be a fruit, but the albums he put out from 1970 - 1976 were great. He went downhill after he stopped writing with Bernie Taupin.

When I heard Elton's tribute song to Princess Di, all I could do was shake my head in disbelief. The least he could have done was create a new song rather than rely on one that was written by Bernie Taupin, as were many of Elton John's songs. Elton wrote the melodies......

Funny how fame and fortune work out, Elton John is now a knight and Bernie Taupin is just a guy who wrote songs for Elton......

“I have great respect for the Stones but they would have been better if they had thrown Keith out 15 years ago”

Nobody ever accused Elton John of having a lick of sense.

The above comment is a good illustration of why.

Without Mick, Keith or Charlie, there are no Stones.
