  1. Gays should not be allowed to adopt children, it is child abuse and the kids will grow up mentally scared for life.

  2. Going to miss Elton John.

  3. I like talking to him, I want to talk to him as a friend.

  4. Dear Elton John, Thanks for performing, My name is Kaifu Wei, I hope you text me and I want to hear from you, I want Elton John to talk to me often because everyone in the community knows my name. I should have give all my information to him so that he can call me and text me. He should wish me a happy birthday also. I was born on August 31, 2002.

  5. There's no doubt Elton John is an OG, Props on a great run Sir Elton ๐Ÿ‘

  6. Thank you Elton. My dad who is now passed on introduced me to your music. Thank you for the music.

  7. farewell number 15 how many times is he going to keep saying farewell? Please leave already John.

  8. What a beautiful human being.

  9. First of all Elton got me into playing rock music, the piano and composing. ( I remember winning his album empty sky along with music from Styx Herb Albert and Supertramp at a Dodgers game at Dodger Stadium back in 1979 this officially started my love for rock music.) Musically, I wanted to be like him.

    That said, I've seen him once along with Eric Clapton at his Dodger Stadium show on 8/29/92. My ex-wife and I went and we had a wonderful time. it was one of the best concerts I've ever seen!

    That also said, I was going to go see him in 2019 in San Diego but I couldn't go because of another important engagement.

    Now, I was going to get tickets again to see him at this final show back at Dodger Stadium. And the tickets were so crazy expensive ,the cheapest was for $250!. ( in 1992 they were less than $50 each). I just couldn't see myself shelling out quarter of $1,000 for any concert. ( in comparison I saw Dennis DeYoung on 3-5-20 and Dream Theater in 2-4-22 both in San Diego area for about 75 bucks! Both concerts I had very good seats for that price as well). Elton's music made me who I am musically today. I would love to pay homage to him but not for $250 for nosebleed seats, sorry Elton. ๐Ÿ˜”

    Everyone's been affected by his music he should at least lower the prices so not just the rich elite can go see him. ( the same issue arose for Paul McCartney at Sofi stadium in LA earlier this year, the same price gouging. And his voice is so wavy now due to his age, that it's questionable that he'd even be out touring, let alone having to charge those type of prices for lackluster vocals ? Please.๐Ÿ™„ but I did get to see him in 1992 at Anaheim Stadium. I guess my musical Heroes only cater to the elite now, so sad and disappointing.๐Ÿ˜ž.)

    The most I will pay another musician to see their show now is $150 to 175, max. I think that's more than fair.๐Ÿค”

  10. Rocket man. One of my favs from teenage years. Hated Bennie & the Jets btw.

  28. "You've been a good dad"..brought tears to my eyes.

  29. He's so awesome! I hope he comes to Phoenix Arizona. I'd pay for that ticket

  30. ๐ŸŒŽ Urgent New World Order News Report: Hunter Biden's Laptop has requested a Special Master to look over criminal documents presented by Republican Senators.

  31. ๐ŸŒŽ New World Order News Report: Special Prosecutor Jack Smith announces there is not enough evidence to charge Former President Donald Trump in any of his current criminal cases and gives the Former President the green light to proceed with lying to the American people and destroying Democracy.

  32. Recently saw a clip from "Actors Studio" where an audience member asks him to play "Daniel" in memory of his friend Danny that died years before. Without hesitation Elton agreed and played the most beautiful rendition of that tune, just he and the piano. There's a sense humility and decency about him that is just wonderful.

  33. Thank you Sir Elton, for the memories. Bless you and your familyโœŒ๏ธโค๏ธ๐ŸŽต

  34. This man has had such an undescribably collosal career and has become such an integral part of culture across the world. Both my parents loved him and I grew up hearing him almost every day. Estatically bittersweet to see him taking his bow on his terms.

  35. In karnataka state future Assembly Elections to be held under the UNO and FBI observation is necessary please protect the democracy in karnataka state

  36. Gay white man and a gay black woman sickos at it finest.. Foolishness ….

  39. โ›„๐ŸŽ„ Christmas is at the corner, The wisest thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that doesn't depend on the govt. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in Gold, silver and digital currencies(BTC, ETH..).

  40. Elton John did a great job on can you feel the love tonight? So heartwarming and emotional

  41. Wow. He looks great

  42. At a time when we were both shocked and totally absorbed by the English invasion, The Beatles, the stones, Eric Clapton and cream, The Yardbirds to name a few, came this completely unique style of piano and lyric, the likes of which we had never seen or heard before. There are many words to describe it but somehow it defies a complete description. He captured a whole generation with his combination of classically trained, wonderful interpretation of rock music. Thank you Elton John, Bernie Taupin and youโ€™re wonderful cast of unforgettable musicians.

  43. The money ran out, he spends it like Louis the 14th. Don't worry the comeback tour will be back in 5 years. God help us retire your irrelevant
