Tumbleweed Connection is one of my favorite albums. And there are a few good cuts on his very first Empty Sky - Sails and Skyline Pigeon in particular.

I got into Elton John after seeing Almost Famous and that scene on the bus with "Tiny Dancer" playing.

Next time you listen to Tiny Dancer...it sounds like he says, "Hold me closer, Tony Danza..."

...now you won't be able to listen to that song without putting "Tony Danza" in it....muhahaha

You stole that joke from Friends.

And Friends was dumb.

You should be ashamed of yourself.
