:: 70's Elton John ::

English television presenter Russell Harty to Elton John lyricist Bernie Taupin

in a 1975 interview:

'There's a legend that there really isn't an Elton John - that it's you,

you're the real Elton John'
(referring to an article written by an American reporter).

In a way, I wouldn't blame the reporter for implying that Elton
isn't real - because personally, I have a hard time believing that he is!
Words escape me when it comes to his talent!

I realize this might upset, intimidate or whatever Elton John fans,
but everyone has the right to their own opinion and this is mine:

If I were to be asked what is my favorite Elton John song or album
I couldn't answer that, because I can not play favorites when it comes to him!
Although there is one thing that I can play favorites on:
Elton John of the 70's vs. beyond that decade.

Why?

To compare him now to then, looks alone, he almost looks like a totally different person.
There was just something about the ways he looked in the 70's that I so loved.

Gone are the breathtaking flamboyant costumes, platforms, glasses,
the handstands on the piano and the very energetic performances 
he gave in the 70's.

I used to love the idea of wondering whether
or not he was gay - it was such a wonderful mystery...

I cannot stand this David Freakish Furnish creep and this marriage bit about Elton.
I just can't get into it or anything he has 'involved' himself in since the 70's...

Then there's his vocals.
Ever since he had that throat surgery - ruining the original sound of his singing, which I so favor!To me, he even behaves different compared to how he did in the 70's.

Anyone who has footage on him from the 70's, get it out,
watch it - then watch something of him past that decade
and tell me you don't agree with everything I've written here!

I could go on and on, but I'll stop here.

After the release of 'Blue Moves',
I guess I just became lost in the 70's - the Elton of the 70's... 

           

In the 70's, Elton John had no fewer than twenty four of his 

singles hit the top forty.

Most of his albums released during the decade sold more than a million each.

His concerts have been sellouts since he started.

               THEE ONE AND ONLY LEGENDARY ELTON JOHN!!!

Revised: Meeting Madonna

Non-Elton related - sort of... Madonna related.
 

'Imposter John'  forced once again into my existence.

Golden Globes - all I have to say - fucking total joke!

Proves how fucking changed and ugly... This is all I'll say. 

I REFUSE to give the shit anymore attention on here - 
'cos this blog is only about the REAL Elton!!

I have stated on this blog in the past that I have met Madonna

twice. People who claim to have met her says she's rude, a bitch, etc.

Hmmm... she sure wasn't to me!

She was much shorter and petite. Very self assured
and very professional - business like. 

Her eyes were so haunting. 

What was the most memorable about it was our fucking car got towed!

We  asked a Cobo Hall security guard where they tow cars in that area. 

It was some place a few miles behind Cobo Hall (Detroit for those who don't know where Cobo Hall is).

While we were walking behind Cobo Hall to find the place, 

about 4 limos passed us - the 4th one had Madonna in it! 

She actually looked back and smiled at us.

After the '70s ended, in my opinion, she is the only memorable 

and worthwhile singer.

I have recently added more photos of Madonna to a album of 

photos I have created on her for anyone interested.

(use this guess pass to view: 55ltmesee12)
 

Sure didn't conduct yourself like an embarrassing 
asshole in the '70s.... 
Like I said, IS NOT the REAL Elton John....

As the Rolling Stones sing: 'start me up I'll never stop'

I just had to about this: 

Fat ugly creep so - called 'Elton John'

using the beautiful REAL Elton of the 70's in their

retard concerts, etc...

Not to mention always having the nerve to continue to

perform the 70's songs.

Damn fucking creep parody of them self. What A Joke!!!

It's like let it alone - quit living for the past you fucking creep

when you were beautiful and a legend.

You fucking chose to change for the worse -

the creep that you've become - embrace it!

I really fucking hate that joke, ie. Elton after 1978...  

every single damn thing about them! Enough said!!

Let's not leave out gone from sweet, shy and extremely
breathtakingly beautiful to outspoken ugly embarrassing
creep who says / does retarded things: such as freak Gaga...

The 'Elton John '78 On...' part of my blog - this is my 

complete viewpoint on the real Elton John vs. ugly old fat

creep so-called 'Elton John'

My latest on 'Imposter John'

Why is this fat ugly old creep carrying on as if they are relevant?
Such a damn joke!!
I do not keep up with this asshole because I really do hate them,
but unfortunately 3 things about them were forced into my attention.

So the asshole is writing a book now about cry baby AIDs. Gee... sure
isn't nothing like the surreal god(dess) Elton Hercules John supporting
the Stein Eye Clinic back in the 70's - a beautiful cause...

As I have said way too many times on here - gone from breathtakingly
surreal, sweet and shy to outspoken asshole retard creep.

Then this HBO bullshit - again, carrying on as if relevant who the fuck
is interested in watching it and especially the joke of it all, this beyond
retard creep biopic shit - which I bet will be such a total FLOP!!

It's like go the fuck away fat ugly old creep imposter!
Who the fuck cares about you and your retard total different ugly person self!!
I wont even go there with the retard marriage and baby bit...

Like I said, total different person... sings, looks, behaves, etc. like a total
different person - sooooooooooooo BORING!

IT IS NOT THE REAL ELTON JOHN!!! The real Elton quit existing after '78...

 

More . . .

(below picture - freak Gaga copies Madonna's shoes)

  Elton is simply incomparable to anyone!
  I almost pity anyone who didn't grow up in the 1970's
  and got to experience how much of a
  breathtaking surreal god Elton John was....

'It's all about the meat suit and the controversy. 

Is it about the music? Really? She's got the publicity

side sorted out, but where's the fucking music.'

Noel Gallagher on ugly freak Gaga.

 Plain and simple - music is just so totally jaded and sucks 

 after the 70's ended!

 All it's about is everyone copying the legendary greats 

 believing they will be just as great - which is such a complete 

 total fucking joke!!

Random Notes

While going through,  it has to be over 300 unpublished photographs

in my collection, I came across one of Elton and Bernie Taupin that

has got to be one of my favorites
(besides the Starlight Room photo).
 

I fondly remember being given it by an
airline stewardess (of all people). 

It is a photo of Elton and Bernie laying on the top of Elton's Steinway grand piano. 

I've been considering adding it to the  

Elton John and Bernie Taupin slideshow.



:: Recent Updates (Feb. 26) ::

:: Meet the newest member of our circle ::
Their collection is what I would classify as extremely rare!

::: For example, a video of Elton hosting a soccer series, I had 

mentioned this on here before, 1973 concert footage they filmed

themself which no one else has (and wont sell!) and, of course,

tons of unpublished photographs :::

This is an example of the extent of their

massive 70's Elton collection...  (read more below) 

The newest member of our circle - a real

'dominating queen' (maledomme - dominatrix, ie) - who
shares my obsessed infatuation for (70's) Elton John,
my dislikes, has been a fan as long as I have - and has an

unbelievable to die for collection on 70's Elton.

It is definitely the envy of any avid fan!

Be sure to read the too hilarious 'about mio' section (hope

you're familiar with (70's) Elton John or some of it wont 

make sense...)

This particular page of the blog you will not be notified

when it updates, so please contact 'Mistress Relentless'

to receive updates or you can return visit the page.

I am sure it will be updated more often then this blog...

The page includes :: Featured Photo :: section + a lot more!

It took a lot for me to talk this person to come on here...
They are a long time very good friend of mine.

I do not tolerate prejudice or discrimination of any kind!

I realize a lot of people have strong opinions on topics such as

what they do/are so... just saying....

So worth dying over? Not !

This is the chick Elton thought was so worth committing suicide over

which inspired lyricist Bernie Taupin to write the beautiful song

'Someone Saved My Life Tonight'

Ew! Eww! and Ewww!!
I'm sorry can't help to be mean - but I mean - Really!! ...

Visit my 70's Elton John page for lots more on Elton!!

M -
Couldn't get a hold of you so I'm putting this
on here for you to see.

It's a clip off the movie The Hanged Man.
The cowboy is too funny in this movie!
Especially the costume thing he is saying about
how that cop is dressed.
I totally love the dialogue between him and
the other guy on the part I recorded.
Especially the 'soft fur' thing he is saying - was
totally obsessed byElton's beautiful chest 'fur' - Ha!
Mmmm ... what I wouldn't do ...

I used the VideoSpin software you suggested - love it!
I re-did it. It was too choppy - hope it's better.
I was like 1/2 asleep when I was recording it...

Ms. R

I love black and white photography.

Back in the 70's (actually, way before) the majority

of magazines/photography was in black and white - unlike

magazines past that decade.

Did you know that police crime scene

photos are shot in black and white because it brings 

out hidden details, texture and shape?

This is one reason I love black and white photography.

Anyways, now that I educated you on all that, this is a

beautiful black and white of  Elton John.

It's one from my vast collection of unpublished

photographs I have on him (which I have been posting

slideshows of in the EJ Private Photo Gallery on the AHPS site.

The gallery/slideshows consists of rare photos/pix and unpublished

photos of the lovely rock superstar)

The other two black and whites Ginger took upon herself to

photograph (pictured in the Random Notes), which I have in frames

in my house are also unpublished photographs of Elton along with the

featured photo also in this section...

****************************

 If I were into playing favorites with pictures of Elton

(which I totally refuse to and can't!)

This would definitely have to be my favorite - ever!!

I totally fucking love this picture tooooo much - it is such 

the epitome of surreal. Stunningly beautiful songbird...
I am soooooooo in love with this picture!!

Once again, Marty has left me to house sit.

(I am doing this just for you, Derek - LOL!)

I have taken a couple photos to post.

This one is breathtaking! I was like literally breath taken by it.
I also took a photo of the room in Marty's house the

photo is framed in (so sorry, Derek, not the bedroom this time! ROTFL!)

Ginger

Marty loves black and white photography.
I do too, it's just so dramatic.

This is the only non-70's look I care for... 
Just totally lost interest and cannot stand him after the 70's... 
Such a completely different person who leaves absolutely

nothing to be desired.
 

****************************

These particular glasses were described as costing $4,200 with

cloud shaped lenses suspended by gold hooks from gold and

platinum frame encrusted with 103 diamonds.

Cher, Diana Ross and Tina Turner's clothes
were/are designed by Bob Mackie who designed several

of Elton's costumes such as the Dodger Stadium sequin baseball uniform,
many of his jumpsuits to the costumes he wore during his 1975
performance on the Cher Show.

  
  Note: I have decided it's lame to like Cher and besides,
  she's not really all that attractive. The clothes Bob Mackie
  designs for her is what makes it seem like she is...

  (she's kind of a fucking pathetic copycat too...)
  I prefer Tina Turner and Diana Ross over this lame copycat.

  Elton John (of the 70's) has been and always will be my only

  music interest. The rest is just so fucking boring!! - Just sayin'

Was recently in Oahu in Hawaii and some girl in one

of the photo shoots I did had this totally awesome

tattoo. Of course, I was immediately obsessed with

'Cage The Songbird' (Elton song off 'Blue Moves' -

I love how he sounds like a lovely cooing songbird
on this song...)
Anyways, she let me photograph it.

OMG! I just had to!!

Marty is gone from today until sometime next week.

He asked me to maintain this blog and to 'house sit' his 

home. Anyways, Derek (which he has written about on here)

came with me to check on Marty's  house and he was like 

' let's check out his bedroom'. (His house is very beautiful!)

I was like NO! he'll kill us if he knew we went in there.

Derek (you idiot!!) who doesn't listen too well went in and was

like 'Gin, you gotta see this!' I went in and it was like, OMG!!

(I can almost imagine the things Marty would be saying about this photo...)

He has this 8x10 framed on the nightstand - I just had to!!!

I quickly took a picture of it with my phone and got out!

I wish I could put the full 8x10 size of it on here, but he wont allow it

because of people trying to steal the pictures. The actual photo is beautiful!

I know he'll kill us (especially you, Derek) when he reads this on here!!

By the way, I just posted a precious pic. of Elt in the facts section, so have a look.

Ginger

Made several updates to the blog. Hopefully this weekend I will finally

find the time to work on the private gallery section on the AHPS site!
I have moved the 'Elton John Private Gallery' there.
The site features a lot of what we do and will have a lot of Elton!

(note to Gin: You are so not funny! I'm telling Matt you were in my bedroom

with a gay guy... I don't care you went in there - I don't have anything

to hide, except for what's in my closet... (get it?)

:: Featured Photo ::

(visit :: AHPS :: for more photos of Elton!)

 The featured photo section has been moved to our                      

 AHPS site - along with the Elton John Private Photo Collection.  

Okay, so I have this friend Derek, who is a tattoo artist

and did my 'Love Lies Bleeding' tattoo (looks a lot like the above graphic).

He came over while I was watching Elton's video for 'Shine On Through'.

Anyways, he shot this vidcap from the video I thought I'd share on here.

Fucking around with my camera, Derek!! - too bad you're not my type...
