One of the best things about it being March is we get to celebrate Elton John’s birthday!

Elton has sold more than 300 million albums and had more than 50 (50!!!) Top 40 hits. He has received five Grammy Awards, five Brit Awards, an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award, a Tony Award, a Disney Legends award, and the Kennedy Center Honor. Elton was knighted* by Queen Elizabeth II for “services to music and charitable services” in 1998.

*Paul Brown dropped his butter knife on the floor in the studio, that’s enough for us to consider ourselves knighted 😉

Even though Elton John sings “Your Song” to everyone, we decided we’d dedicate our top 5 favourite Elton John videos to him to help celebrate his big day.
