Sir Elton John bids an emotional farewell to fans in the grand finale of his epic farewell tour. The music maestro delivered a mesmerizing performance at the Tele2 Arena in Stockholm, Sweden, bringing an end to his 330-date tour on a poignant note. The crowd was treated to an extraordinary two and a half hour set, showcasing Elton’s greatest hits, including an emotionally charged rendition of “Your Song” and culminating with the iconic “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.”
Expressing his gratitude, Sir Elton John addressed the audience, stating, “The last one, and we’re ending it in the beautiful city of Stockholm in Sweden. My very first show in Sweden was July 7, 1971, so more or less 52 years ago to the day.” Reflecting on his illustrious career, he continued, “I’ve had the most wonderful career, beyond belief… It’s been my lifeblood to play for you guys, and you’ve been absolutely magnificent – thank you. I will never forget you guys. I’ve played so many concerts, how could I forget? You’re in my head, and my heart, and my soul, and I thank you so much.”
He discovered the gem when he was 12 years old and still has it now, claiming it to be why he fell in love with music. He likes to play disc golf when he's not writing about music. He is a one-of-a-kind individual who is always the first to bust out his air guitar on the dance-floor.
