Okay, so there's no keyboard, but Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting would still fit great in Rock Band. Good guitar and bassline, drums, and of course, Elton John on vocals.

Check it out. There's a pretty mean guitar solo around 4:30.

No. Not even Candle in the Wind nor Antique Garden.

If you want to sing along to an Elton John song you're either a middle-aged woman, or homosexual. Or both. Abortion could have prevented this.

Pro life is anti abortion. He thinks abortion could have prevented people from liking Elton John, so he's pro choice.

Either way, he's an idiot.

I think he's implying that a simple abortion could have prevented this stupid thread by making sure the OP never escaped the womb.

Think about how much better the world would be without this guy and his stupid suggestion.

I never said anything about the quality of Elton's John music, but I see there was a misunderstanding. I'm sorry.

But while we're here I like Aretha Franklin's music. I think Rock Band should have "Respect".

Just so theres no misunderstanding, im not saying elton john is crap. rocketman is a good song, crocodile rock is ok, saturday night is ok. but elton is a pianist, so since theres no keyboard hardware, his music is mostly out with few exceptions. combine the keyboard heavy slant with his crappy, undynamic vocals, and you have a recipe for a bad rock band experience. as a singer myself, i do not find him challenging to cover at all. i am not against him because he is *** (married to a man), he can love whoever he wants. (though nobody was surprised when he came out).

what i do have a problem with elton on is now hes becoming an activist. why do people feel they need to do this when they should be performing instead? when youre watching a movie do you wonder what that actors feelings on the iraq war are? if you knew would you care? or would you rather they just did their job and keep it to themselves like you and i do? wow. sorry. anyway, elton said recently that the internet should be shut off for like 5 years so we can all take a step back and "re-center" ourselves as a people. whatever, dude. so typical, people like him always think they know whats best for everyone.

i just wanted to clarify since the usual band of "your &^$$ idea sucks. now go away" posters have contributed.
