Elton John

Elton John, known for his graceful melodic skills, energetic charisma, and ostentatious stage shows, was born on March 25, 1947 in Pinner, England. A rock music singer, composer and pianist, Elton John is one of the most successful solo artists of all times and unlike many pop stars, he was able to maintain his popularity from 1970 to 1996 by charting a Top 40 single every single year. Elton released Honky Chateau in 1972, which became his first American number one album with hit singles "Rocket Man (I Think It's Going To Be A Long, Long Time)" and "Honky Cat". Honky Chateau was the start of seven consecutive number one albums - Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player (1973), Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (1973), Caribou (1974), Greatest Hits (1974), Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy (1975), Rock of the Westies (1975) - that all went platinum. Elton John's recorded version, "Candle in the Wind 1997", became the fastest selling single of all time selling over 30 million copies worldwide. Elton John was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994 and knighted by Queen Elizabeth II on 24 February 1998.
