I don't mind some of his stuff, but Original Sin and Sacrafice are two awesome songs.

Any other likers of Reg's music?

Come on, there's bound to be at least one.

I think admitting to that would fall under the category of "guilty pleasure," wouldn't it? :uhoh:

Oh for fucks sake, you've really got to be joking with this one :nonono:

Plus you namechecked two of his most irritating songs as 'awesome' :eek:

Haven't heard the first tune, but Sacrifice is one I've always really really liked. Also liked the tribute to J.Lennon as well.

Well, I heard today Elton singing to Hooky's bass, so everything is possible in this world.

And that's how it should be.

So have I, but I just think he's dull, middle of the road stuff.

Maybe RocketMan and a couple of the older things are ok but no!

He peaked in 1976. Great Hits I and II all you really need. Most of that you can record off the radio. Although Tiny Dancer (?) is one missing that's ok perhaps one of his better.

All that shit from the Lion King was ace.

I'm sorry - I'm pretty drunk right now.

LE!

Tell us you're joking!

(About being drunk, I mean.)

Joking, indeed. Making sure that the Lion King reference was taken in jest.

OK i 'fess up. I went watching him a couple of months ago. He was on at the Reebok Stadium, he was at the bottom of my road for fucks sake so it would be rude not to.

Anyway, he was actually bloody brilliant. It helped that we'd been on an all day bender beforehand. When he played "I'm still standing" and "I guess why they call it the blues" I'd challenge any of you lot not to sway a bit (and not due to the beer!)

OK you can hurl stones at me now.

:uhoh:
