Pipe down, Elton, you eco-snob

Part of what made Elton a great artist was that he didn't write the words.

He should continue this practice in all of his life.

Bernie Taupin was a good lyric-writer

[Stevenc131]

Good advice for all musicians, shut up and play. John and Taupin were a heck of a pair of artists, please be quiet Elton and let us remember all those great songs.

Leftist elites all have gross hypocrisy in common. Do as they say not as they do.

I thought he died of AIDS a couple years ago.

They got medicine cocktails now that keep the virus at bay.

But they’re seeing now that many with HIV are getting dementia early in life.

I got it without having HIV :)

I admired Prince Harry until I witnessed his tawdry and inexcusable behavior toward President Trump and his family.

In that behavior I saw an entirely different side of Prince Harry than I had seen before, or even suspected, a side that is certainly not to his credit.

[Fungi]

Like the guy above?

[Bonemaker]

I adore how the Brits use the Mother Tongue to cut flaming arseholes to ribbons!😃

I have felt that Elton was not a liberal as many may think. I could be wrong, but I believe he and Rush stay in touch. Of course, if it became public knowledge he and Rush are friends his career is toast.

[MrEdd]

The guy above has had his disgusting side on display for decades.

I have thought that the Cub Scout Strippers should have been enough to drive home who and what Elton John is to everyone.

Evidently the moral limits I embrace are not embraced by everyone.

[DIRTYSECRET]

Elton- a pitcher or a catcher? He’s 72.

[Yaelle]

Excellent point there!

[Captain Peter Blood]

My guess is that he catches.

[adorno]

I thought he died of AIDS a couple years ago.

Like a lot of dead people, he still walks among us, and makes our lives miserable.

Go to one of his concerts, and you can safely utter: "I see dead people".

[MarMema]

Bernie was a misogynist.

[Rummyfan]

I don’t even want to think about it!
