You can't have a Rock Band series without including Elton John. He has had so many hit songs I have lost count. We liked his 70's music the best. I had to buy his Caribou and Goodby Yellow Brick Road albums twice because I wore out the first ones I purchased!



So your at home just getting ready to kick back and enjoy some "HARMONY" and what do your ears behold? THE PHONE ALERT! Crap, why is that thing going off again. Another ROCK BAND cache I'll bet, you think to yourself. Don't fight it, just grab the IPOD and load up "FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND/LOVE LIES BLEEDING", "NIKITA", "SATURDAY NIGHTS ALRIGHT FOR FIGHTING", AND "CROCODILE ROCK".



Time to make the "SACRIFICE" and head to GZ like a "ROCKET MAN"! After all the "ISLAND GIRLS" may be around and you don't want them to get FTF. "DON'T LET THE SUN GO DOWN ON ME (the cache)". It might be too hard to find in the dark. If you can't find this one, don't ask "BENNY AND THE JETS" because they will just send you over to ask "DANIEL" and he doesn't know. Just log a DNF and send us an e-mail. We will be glad to provide a hint because we don't want you singing "I GUESS THAT'S WHY THEY CALL IT THE BLUES". Once you find this one you'll feel like proclaiming "I'M STILL STANDING"!



About Elton John:
Sir Elton Hercules John, CBE, Hon DMus (born Reginald Kenneth Dwight on 25 March 1947) is an English rock singer-songwriter, composer, pianist and occasional actor. He has worked with lyricist Bernie Taupin as his songwriter partner since 1967; they have collaborated on more than 30 albums to date.



In his four-decade career John has sold more than 250 million records, making him one of the most successful artists of all time. His single "Candle in the Wind 1997" has sold over 33 million copies worldwide, and is the best selling single in Billboard history. He has more than 50 Top 40 hits, including seven consecutive No. 1 US albums, 56 Top 40 singles, 16 Top 10, four No. 2 hits, and nine No. 1 hits. He has won six Grammy Awards, an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award and a Tony Award. In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked him Number 49 on its list of the 100 greatest artists of all time.


John was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994. Having been named a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1996, John received a knighthood from HM Queen Elizabeth II for "services to music and charitable services" in 1998. He has been heavily involved in the fight against AIDS since the late 1980s, and In 1992, he established the Elton John AIDS Foundation and a year later began hosting the annual Academy Award Party, which has since become one of the most high-profile Oscar parties in the Hollywood film industry. Since its inception, the foundation has raised over $200 million.



In 2008, Billboard magazine ranked him as the most successful male solo artist on "The Billboard Hot 100 Top All-Time Artists" (third overall, behind only The Beatles and Madonna).
