Elton John's "Rocket Man" movie is a blast. His new "Diamonds" CD of greatest hits is wonderful.

I love the "Rocket Man" movie so much, I saw it twice. Taron Egerton's performance as Elton John is truly a marvel. Egerton sang Elton’s songs and played Elton with vulnerability, pathos, skill and verve, owning the picture.
