I always knew I was in the minority lol.

Anyway, I think someone's hit a nerve with those comments. Perhaps mummy needs to make you some nice warm coco with biscuits, everything will be alright then.

What's really worrying is that he's a teenager who listens to Elton John.
It's unnatural I tell you.

I thought that teenage ADD would take care of this thread, but if he can stand to listen to Elton John we're screwed.

I tell you. This guy's a troll. Only certain types of teenager listen to Elton and fewer still perform EJ songs!

Default Re: British accents - and getting hooked up

yea.. gotta agree it wasn't the accent (that lovely Mancunian accent ) that made me fall for Manc, must have been the other.

(Well he didn't sing Elton John to me either, if he broke out into a chorus of "Tiny Dancer" or "Crocodile Rock" I'd have to hurt him.. serious hurt)

Methinks he'd be probably be visiting a particular kind of bar, if you know what I'm saying...

Default Re: British accents - and getting hooked up

actually lots of teenagers like elton john. i don't think middle aged people are in a position to judge that. Remember that recent hit with Blue, and the re-release of "are you ready for love". He's the most successful british popular music artist ever. you must accept it.

the most successful based on what, lots of bands have that acclaim.

most number 1's is the Beatles
most top 10 hits is the Beautiful South.

Getting more worried by the minute here. When I was a teenager they told me that phoney Beatlemania had bitten the dust.

I loved the tribute song Elton did for Mother Teresa, it was similar to the one Elton did for Di.

Blue? What?

My son is a teenager and may know one or two Elton John songs. That's all and then only because they were in Lion King.
