Elton John

In July 2017, when Elton John performed 'Rocket Man' live at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Berlin, he was deep into his career, having just released his album 'Wonderful Crazy Night' in 2016. This album marked a vibrant addition to his extensive discography, showcasing his signature blend of pop and rock while echoing themes of resilience and joy. Interestingly, Elton's connection to 'Rocket Man,' a timeless classic from the 1972 album 'Honky Château,' highlights his enduring appeal—it's a song that resonates with audiences, exploring themes of isolation and longing. At this point in his career, Elton was not just a music legend but also a cultural icon, known for his extravagant performances and philanthropy. His ability to captivate audiences decades after his debut proves just how timeless his music truly is.
