ABOUT ELTON JOHN
Elton's career achievements to
date are unsurpassed in their breadth and longevity. Elton
is one of the top-selling solo artists of all time, with 38
gold records and 31 platinum and multi-platinum albums, over
50 Top 40 hits, and he has sold more than 300 million
records worldwide. He holds the record for the
biggest-selling single of all time, "Candle in the
Wind
1997," which sold over 33 million copies. 'Diamonds'
the Ultimate Greatest Hits album, reached the Top 5 of the
UK album charts on its release in November 2017, becoming
Elton's 40th UK Top 40 album in the process, reaching Gold
status before the end of the year. This release celebrated
50 years of his songwriting partnership with Bernie Taupin.
August 2018 saw Elton named as the most successful male solo
artist in Billboard Hot 100 chart history, having logged 67
entries, including nine No.1s and 27 Top 10s.
He has also
written the music for stage and screen successes Billy
Elliot: The Musical, Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida, and The
Lion King, which was named the highest-grossing stage show
or film release in the world. Elton announced the 'Farewell
Yellow Brick Road' tour at New York's Gotham Hall in January
2018. Encompassing 5 continents, and over 300 dates, this
3-year-long tour started in September and marks his
retirement from touring after more than 50 years on the
road. To date, Elton has delivered more than 4,000
performances in more than 80 countries since launching his
first tour in 1970. April 2018 saw the release of 'Revamp',
an album of the world's biggest musical stars covering some
of Elton's best loved Songs.
Among the many awards and
honours bestowed upon him are five GRAMMYs along with a
GRAMMY Legend award, a Tony and an Oscar, a Best British
Male Artist BRIT Award, induction into the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Kennedy
Center Honor, Legend of Live Award, 13 Ivor Novello Awards
and a knighthood from HM Queen Elizabeth II for "services to
music and charitable services."
In 1992, Elton
established the Elton John AIDS Foundation, which today is
one of the leading non-profit HIV/AIDS organizations and has
raised over $400 million to date in the global fight against
HIV/AIDS. In January 2018, he received the Crystal Award for
this long- standing fight against HIV/AIDS at the World
Economic Forum in Davos. At the 2018 International AIDS
Conference in Amsterdam, Sir Elton John and Prince Harry,
Duke of Sussex, announced the launch of the MenStar
Coalition; an over $1.2 billion global partnership, that
seeks to engage men in new and innovative ways to break the
cycle of HIV transmission and ultimately end the AIDS
epidemic by 2030.
