Rocket Man has hit 1 billion streams on Spotify! Thank you to all of you who keep listening and streaming, it brings me so much joy that this song continues to mean so much to you all after all of these years. 🚀
We won an Emmy and I am on cloud nine!! Receiving this recognition is a testament to the passion and dedication of everyone involved, and I am so deeply grateful.
Whilst I am gutted that I couldn’t be there to accept this award in person– I recently underwent a knee operation, a gentle reminder, perhaps, of a lifetime spent jumping off pianos (see pic 2!) – my heartfelt thanks go out to the @televisionacad and all those who took the time to vote. This award reflects the collective effort and creativity of an amazing team…
I want to express my deepest gratitude to @disneyplus, @davidfurnish, @lukelloyddavies, @mrbenwinston, and the entire @fulwell73productions and @rocketentertainment teams for your commitment to bring this to life.
A special acknowledgment goes to the exceptional band and the entire crew of the Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour. Your commitment and talent have always been the driving force that keeps our incredible fans entertained night after night.
Thank you to my incredible special guests @dualipa, @brandicarlile, and Kiki Dee plus @bernietaupinofficial for joining me on stage that special night.
Thank you to all the fans, friends, and collaborators who have supported me throughout the years.
Honoured to have joined the hallowed ranks of EGOT winners, here’s to the joy of music and the magic it brings to our lives!

I lived in Atlanta for 30 years and I loved every single minute of it. It’s a big moment to say goodbye to things that have meant so much to me but I hope they bring whoever has them next as much joy as they’ve bought me.
The online auction sale is now open as is the free public exhibition.
Visit christies.com for full info.
I am incredibly excited to announce my new book, “Farewell Yellow Brick Road: Memories of My Life On Tour”, which goes behind the scenes on my final tour, from Allentown, PA, to Stockholm, Sweden and everywhere in between. It’s been a beautiful journey creating this book and remembering the people and places that shaped an incredible chapter in my life. As well as the stories and memories, not just from this tour but from throughout my career, I’ve included unreleased photography and memorabilia that I hope give you never-before-seen insights of my life on the road.
I can’t wait to share it with you all on 24 September. Rocket Club members and those buying through my official store will receive their copy two weeks early, so head to store.eltonjohn.com to pre-order your copy now.

It’s the Rocket Hour Christmas Special!
This year I have selected an eclectic mix of old and new, ranging festive classics from The Ronettes, Elvis Presley and Greg Lake, to some of my favourite new Christmas songs and covers from contemporary artists including RAYE, Phoebe Bridgers and Sufjan Stevens, as well as some lesser-known deep cuts. Hope some of these make it onto your Christmas playlist these holidays.
Wishing all my Rocket Hour listeners Happy Holidays and I look forward to bringing you more shows and the latest new music in the New Year! 🎄⭐️🚀
I’m replaying my interview with @hotwaxbandd on this week’s Rocket Hour. I’ve been loving their energetic and unique sound over the last year, so it was great to chat to them about their EP “Invite me, kindly” and their plan to get into the studio and record an album.
Listen to our whole conversation and the full episode on @AppleMusic 🚀
Excited to share the incredible journey of Tammy Faye Bakker in “Better Angels: The Gospel According to Tammy Faye” at Sundance! As executive producers, we are proud to support this documentary series by director Dana Adam Shapiro, exploring the life of the ‘First Lady of the Electric Church.’ 📺✨
Tammy Faye was a true trailblazer, preaching diversity and inclusiveness. In today’s divided world, her message of bringing people together by celebrating differences is more relevant than ever. Having explored the various facets of her impactful life in the Tammy Faye musical, it’s wonderful to see her story told from this new perspective.
Sending our heartfelt congratulations to the brilliant creative team behind this captivating project! 🙌

Every contribution on this special night fuels our mission to end HIV stigma and spread greater love and compassion across the globe.
“Let Your #InnerElton Out” is more than a campaign; it’s a movement that encourages each and every one of us to celebrate who we are and spread love far and wide. We are so humbled to announce that @ejaf is the winner of the 2023 @anthemawards in the Human & Civil Rights category – a testament to the power of embracing diversity, fostering inclusivity, and standing up for the rights of every individual!
Join us in celebrating this achievement as we couldn’t have done it without the support of our bighearted followers. Let’s keep pushing the boundaries for a world where love, equality, and equity lead the way.
