This PIMP MY FACE has sold over 250 million albums, had more than 50 Top 40 hits including seven consecutive #1 US albums. But the question is: HOW?? How, if our english Tiny Dancer never had a mustache?
Belowthenose’s theory: Elton inherited a biological facial impediment from his father, Stanley Dwight, and never got over it. This humongous hereditarian disaster was a constant burden on little’s Elton life, which explains his innumerous suicide attempts. But people like the blues, therefore they buy his albums.
In other words: Elton John is nothing but a crippled mustached who plays the piano and sings his mysery outloud, but, somehow, people dig it.
