Elton  John

Reginald Kenneth Dwight probably would not have been as popular a musical sensation had he not changed his name to Elton John. His eye-catching outfits and hit songs such as “Bennie and the Jets,” “Candle in the Wind,” “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” and “Your Song” were just some of the reasons he became a music icon.

John has been a legend for over fifty years, having sold over 300 million records and worked on 30 albums, making him one of the top best-selling artists of his time. In 2018, he announced that he was retiring, with his final performances set to be in 2023.
