John/Taupin v Lennon/McCartney

[horlock_was_super]

Okay.

Well discussed Lennon/McCartney are the benchmark.

I love most of the Beatles stuff and of course Lennon on his own, McCartney - hit and miss.
George - couple of decent efforts. Ringo? Yeah right.

Elton John and Bernie Taupin have churned out (to use the current vernacular) choon after choon!

I never thought I would look beyond the Beatles as a reference for defining British music, but, Elton is a pretty decent shout IMHO.

Shout out of course to: Bowie, Weller, Davies.

I am not talking about ‘influencing ‘ I am talking about how good is the content?

In my humble opinion, Elton John is shit

As this is in the main City football forum, I'm going with DeBrune and Haaland

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Prefer Elton!

I reckon Elton could batter Paul if he really lost his temper.

Bernie v John would be an anticlimax. Bernie has probably still got the moves and Jobn is too stiff to avoid jabs.

Morrissey & Marr
Difford & Tilbrook

Elton John was, is and always will be utter shite.
