has no one mentioned Bernie Taupin yet?
only to say he deserves life in front of the firing squad for "candle in the wind"
And co-wrote We Built this City which is dreadful.
I grew up a huge Elton John fan and still like his music. But Bernie Taupin is a mediocre writer, at best.
Can anyone explain these mystifying lyrics from Country Comfort (a song I really like anyway):
"Soon the pines will be falling everywhere, village children fight each other for a share".
I don't think Bernie Taupin had a clue what he was doing when he wrote that.
