He is in the top 10 (might even by in the top 5) selling acts of all time. I like guns n roses, but they haven't done anything since 1992, They are the ones who in my opinion shouldn't be on Chinese Democracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Eminem is a stretch but if Bruce and Dave were happy to fly over for it last year in theory the draw of Elton’s UK farewell could attract anyone. Not that I have any suggestions.

NorthernSoul52 Posted May 30, 2023 Report Share Posted May 30, 2023 Damon Albarn to do The Pink Phantom. But no, seriously, do The Pink Phantom. That's a banger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernSoul52 Posted May 30, 2023 Report Share Posted May 30, 2023 In all seriousness, not sure what there will honestly be in terms of setlist changes and/or losses. Would put money on the two guests being Kiki Dee and Dua Lipa. Current show, at twenty-three songs, is coming in at 145 minutes. With an allotted 125 minutes overall, the need to add Don't Go Breaking My Heart in and the fact he is unlikely to lose Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding - its position midway through the show allows for a quick break during its elongated intro - reckon we could be looking at something like this. 1 Bennie and the Jets 2 Philadelphia Freedom 3 I Guess That's Why They Call it the Blues 4 Border Song 5 Tiny Dancer 6 Rocket Man (I Think It's Going to Be a Long, Long Time) 7 Someone Saved My Life Tonight 8 Don't Go Breaking My Heart (with Kiki Dee) 9 Candle in the Wind 10 Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding 11 Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word 12 Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me 13 The Bitch Is Back 14 I'm Still Standing 15 Crocodile Rock 16 Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting 17 Cold Heart (with Dua Lipa) 18 Your Song 19 Goodbye Yellow Brick Road We lose Have Mercy on the Criminal, Take Me to the Pilot, Levon, Burn Down the Mission and Sad Songs (Say So Much) - arguably the five least known cuts in that set for a casual fan, which drops about twenty-five minutes out to make two hours. Add in Don't Go Breaking My Heart and, hey presto, that's your 125-minute farewell show. (I understand the logic of a closing one-two with Your Song and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - but do kind of wish he'd swing for something more wildly energetic to end the encore. Switch out Your Song to go before Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting and put Crocodile Rock after Goodbye Yellow Brick Road to send everybody home in a singalong mood.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted May 30, 2023 Report Share Posted May 30, 2023 The sky is the limit with Elton. It could really be anyone, but more likely if they have a connection. Would love to see Dua and Kiki. Outside chance of Eminem. No chance of Chris Martin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got a feeling it'll be with Adele Sine from Above in the encore please. Cold Heart can sod off. Actually, can Elton just play another set elsewhere on sight where he has nothing but his guest feature songs? Sine from Above, The Pink Phantom, Fairweather Friends, Save Rock and Roll, the list goes on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bike_Like_A_Mum Posted May 30, 2023 Report Share Posted May 30, 2023 My son and I will literally go into meltdown if it's Eminem. Outside chance but not completely out of the question...

NorthernSoul52 Posted May 30, 2023 Report Share Posted May 30, 2023 Eminem would be a mad swing, if only because it would then get the rumour mill into overdrive that he would be headlining 2024. Would hedge him in the "outsider category". Does Dave Grohl have form with Elton at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take Me To The Pilot bangs so that would be a shame. In all honesty I’d much rather he cut Cold Heart in favour of another one his classics but that’s almost certainly not gonna happen sadly. If he’s after a different end to the show and the Lion King songs are destined to remain sadly absent, closing with Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me complete with a choir would be unforgettable.
