Elton John said there might be a “silver lining” to the lockdowns being used in a bid to control the coronavirus pandemic, saying the experience might make him, and others, less selfish.
“Every cloud has a silver lining,” John told Apple’s Zane Lowe. “Maybe this will bring people together and [they’ll] be far more thoughtful about each other in a world where we’re so selfish — me included. And it gives us time to reflect on what life’s all about. And life is about love and sharing and generosity of spirit and coming together as one.”
He added that he’s been using the downtime to spend time with his two sons – one of the reasons he decided to embark on a farewell tour, which has been postponed. “To be honest with you, it’s great to be able to spend this much time with my boys,” John noted.

If he wants to be less selfish he could give me his royalties for just the next three years.
Bwaahahahahaha. Good luck with that ellie.
Don’t care what Elton John or any other entertainer has to say
No one has ever accused him of being intelligent!!!
Unselfish enough to wish Trump great success in his efforts, and to then deal with the blowback from his political allies?
Two sons!? How’d he pull that off?
I wonder if he sent Rush a Get Well Card?
Uncle Charlie?
$$$$$$$$
How much could he give away and suffer?
Many millions I’m sure.
If I made it big in entertainment, I would like to do good with the money. Honest charitable foundations, random acts of paying off big bills for people in need, etc.
You can’t take it with you.
He won't plant you in his penthouse.
You're going back to your plow.
You cant get any more selfish than a guy who mocks God with his life.
He could get COVID 19 and die in place of someone else.
That would be mighty selfless.
How long until these selfless celebs treat us to a Covid-Aid concert?
Hell of a musician.
Did AIDS make him less selfish too?
Why wait? No time like the present to be less selfish.
He bought them.
He’s still standing.
