Good to see Queen at No. 3 for Bohemian Rapsody. But putting all those other records together like that and understanding that they are owned by a great deal of the population... I mean... Christ! Psychotic springs instantly to mind.

didn't see past Queen @ 3 but #1 must surely have been that Elton John Diana tribute single.

I think it demonstrated how sad that it was the biggest SELLING records - Stevie Wonder only getting on there with Just Called To Say I Love You....

Hey go easy on that Elton John fellow, I heard he makes some phat tunes, he did the score to Disneys "The Loin Queen", and all that stuff about him drinking his own sperm thru a straw from his lover David Caresh's ass is a vicious rumour. And anyone who likes flowers and has such exquisite taste must be ok I reckon.

Well there's being gay and then theres being GAY shout it out from the rooftops and make a big issue out of it. Anyway lighten up it was humour. It just makes me laugh the way he goes out of his way in interviews to slip in references to his sexuality, I could care less, after all how many other gay or straight artists do it? Its pathetic. I simply do not like the tosser, not because he's gay, but because he is a conceited, self centred has been prick who irritates me the way he acts like a spoilt child.

it just struck me as funny that someone would rip on E.J. for his sexual preference. i mean, comeon, there's plenty of good material to make fun of the man just looking at his catalog.

I heard that EJ had a birthday party or something, and he wore this extremely elaborate headdress/hat that cost $75,000....

it was so large that he had to be transported to the party in the back of a truck..... what fun!

I always dug "Madman Across the Water"...

$75,000 for a fucking head wig mate!!! Need I say more! It is this blatant disregard for the value of human labour that pisses me off soooo much. Spoilt, Arrogant, Greedy Twat! Regardless of talent, this is a perfect case for Euthenasia if ever I saw one!

Just read this article in the news:

"

Elton John trashes new Bond theme

Elton John has branded Madonna's single, "Die Another Day" the worst Bond theme ever, reports London's Sun.

John said movie bosses on the Pierce Brosnan blockbuster would have been better off asking Shirley Bassey, or Sir Elton himself to record a song instead.

"It hasn't got a tune," John said. "James Bond themes are usually very camp and this one's different. It is the worst Bond tune of all time."

"

Now, I tend to agree with the fellow (though the track is cool and trippy, it definitely doesn't have the cliche lines and general vibe of a Bond theme), but who the flippin' fuck does EJ think he is? And to offer such a humble replacement. This man's arrogance is as amazing as his songs are crap. Why does he have to say anything about Bond Themes...to the press no less? He has absolutely no authority on the subject.

Maybe he would do better... seeing as all his shit is "camp."

Made me hate'im more. Dumbass...
