Mentioned his first 2 albums and then skipped what was the best part of his career and went right to the worst part of it. Pre-1990 Elton was brilliant.
@TheSkirvo You got me. "Club At The End Of The Street" and "Sacrifice" are pretty decent tunes. I had totally forgotten them. Not familiar with the rest of the album. (Sleeping In The Past was released Sept. 4, 1989)
Just because someone posts an old interview with someone doesn't mean they're dead. People are unbelievable. This channel also posted his mom and her mystery pies, doesn't that mean everyone there is also dead now? I'm almost certain if you're able to watch this, you're also able to pull up a search engine and look to see if your wackadoodle theories are true.
Everything bad Ive ever heard about Elton John stems from homophobia, closeted and otherwise. Really sad, you dont have to be gay to say, "Yeah, I'd hang out with that guy." Yaknow? Legends are dead, hes a hero.
@@SHANECatLovinActivistHistorian He lost his vision in one eye from a serious infection, but is still around. I hope he stays with us for a long time still.
It amazes me how all these superstars love dwelling on there drug use, who really wants to know, McCartney the same, he was collared at Heathrow with an enormous stash of heroine , then after all that they give them that so called sir title, if it was any of us public, we’d be locked up, 😂😂
Was shocked to hear him say he can no longer see. Hopefully he will regain ?
God Bless you EJ.
He's healing, eventually he will regain his sight in that e👁️
One 👁️
These comments about gave me a heart attack. Sir Elton is still very much alive people, he’s lost vision in his eye and is recovering
Guys, if Elton John had died, I don’t think UA-cam’s Letterman page would be the first place you’d hear about it.
You say that, but on numerous occasions they were the first to break bad news to me
It would be a close second though.
@@jmw06003 Fair point, but somehow I think this one would be a bit more “breaking”.
Man, Elton is a quick wit!
Im still Standing ❤

Because they were plugging it. The days of yore when product placement was avoided and left to tail end of interview.
I love sleeping with the past that's from 1990

ROCKETMAN is a fantastic movie, must see!
I didn't like it
Lyndsey Wagener is the actress who played The Bionic Woman on Americsn te km evi ssf in in the late 1970s.
Love Eltons music - Fantastic artist with a distinctive voice 👌
Wow, this aired 23 years ago ?!!!!!
trippy, huh?? now he's done touring......I grew up with his music..
He is a great artist and a funny guy!
Elton John IS Awesome Wow .
This is probably the most normal Elton John has ever looked. No wild clothes or crazy glasses.
Amazing human and performer, Mr Elton John
Sir Elton John
He is very lucky to be alive...For many many reasons.
R.Eyes.P.
5:45 Now all the best records come from England!
At this point in 2001 a lot of the audience still got the 70s Lindsay Wagner reference, not sure how many would now in 2024
I got it. Bionic Woman!
I didn't get it, and wondered if it was a particular American reference he knew would land with this audience.
GOAT!!!!🥰
His mother went to Spain like Daniel.
Great Lindsay Wagner reference!
His eye problem is temporary it's going to heal !
Elton John if not being a good musician could have definitely been a good comedian!
Please do a maculay Culkin one from 1994 December
I can’t believe he’s 81
He’s 77

Wow! Elton John was going through a lot of things before the beginning of the 2020s. I'm sure that he will be around for a very long time.
George Shearing was English. 😮
Candle in the Wind was for Marilyn Monroe, not for Diana in 1977... geez
👑
Very very weak interview by Dave. Spent half the time talking about EJ's heart and his drug use, then enumerate bullet points. Simply awful.
Tbh I never thought Letterman was a great interviewer
I haven’t seen anyone say he died - what

Sadly he went Blind recently.
Better blind than dead.
Just his right eye, still bites.
Doing him dirty in the thumbnail Dave!!
Also he hasn’t died, everyone!
Then why is he on the Dave channel? You don't go on the Dave channel when you're alive!
98% of life is weeding through the bs. That's life and one doesn't have to pass to be posted.
REST IN PEACE JOHN, YOU WERE THE BEST
WTF? The guy ain't dead.
@@coriscotupi well every time someone famous dies, they put their old clips on here so i just assumed.......
@@SHANECatLovinActivistHistorian He lost his vision in one eye from a serious infection, but is still around. I hope he stays with us for a long time still.
@@SHANECatLovinActivistHistorianDon't get your news from UA-cam
Doctor Octopus
I am surprised he is still alive
When he is taking him his wig off
Why he say Lyndsay Wagner and not Lee Majors? Oh yeah now I know😐
He's not dead, but he's unfortunately lost his sight.
Dave reaching to stretch out the conversation
😅
Don’t scare us like this.

Annoying clapping track.
What a creep
So Is he dead or what ???
Obviously. Why else would he be on the Letterman channel?
Of course NOT!REG is very much alive.
Why are you relying on UA-cam for your news?
Cut out the BS, just say "I'm dopey"
He died like two years ago.
Oh no, not him too, he only just said he was going blind yesterday. RIP Elton John (1947-2024). Can Dave leave some people alive?
I hope to god Letterman doesn't get Barbara Gaines of the hit Barbara Gaines show next next.
No, he's not dead. But he's been going blind.
RIP Elton John? Going blind isn't going dead. Sheesh.
RIP
I don’t know what everybody sees in this man or his music. His piano skills are mediocre. He doesn’t have the greatest singing voice.
"...and usually, they stink..."
RIP
Jaysus! Check the news people.
Umm he’s not dead, he just won’t see this.
He is so loved.
@RAYGUNKNEESHURT Stupid people.
