Taron Egerton ( Taron means Thunder in Welsh ) is from Abergele about 40 miles from where I live. He is an excellent actor, I Liked his spart in "Kingsman" especially.
I am looking forward to seeing this movie, I Know Elton's story well, being a lifelong fan of him and Bernie too, I followed the story and the music as it unfolded and bought the albums as they came out and spent many a long evening listining the the music over and over agin, while I sat down drawing and painting or just watching the fire in the fireplace.
I was lucky to be born when I was as I got to witness the music as it happend from the Many great bands and singers that emerged and came to fame during that era..
I have so many favourite songs from Elton and Bernie, I doubt I could pick just one as my all time favourite.
One Sonfg I really Love Bernie didnt write, but for years I thought he had... It was from the "Lion King"
Lyrics Written by Tim Rice, as was the "Aida" Album.
However, my most anticipated track on the autobioghraphic album
"Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy" from 1975 is this one, and Elton said it's probably his favourite too..
The Album art is by Alan Aldridge, who left us 2 years ago at the age of 78..
His style in certain pictures such as in this Album Art had a Hieronymus Bosch feel to them..
