Re: Elton John
Elton is like a pop amoeba. Even 40 years (give or take) of success he is still charting well with every album, even though they aren't as good as his early work and his voice is nothing like what it used to be. I think they only band who was more adaptable through the years and change in taste was Queen.
"$120,000 on flowers every year"? A man has to have his priorities and apparently Elton loves his daisies. Nothing wrong with that.
You hit the nail right on the head Cosmic, he is nothing if not adaptable. There is a reason for his longevity, besides his need to create and play his music, he is Terrible with his finances. Every few months his accountant will send him a "You are almost broke" letter, and then Elton will tell his promoters to organize another tour. He spends his money as fast as he makes it, I saw a documentary on BBC about him and it's not unusual for him to spend over $120,000 on flowers every year.
