He gets the credit, and he was a talented performer, but Bernie wrote all the lyrics to most of his hits.

Burn Down the Mission & Amoreena may be my top two.

I had a thick EJ song book when I was 18 and pretty much learned every song from the beginning of his career thru Madman Across the Water and later my play list included a lot of his songs while I was doing solo gigs way back in the day.

Wish I was as good of a piano player & had his higher register vocal range. Big big fan. Bernie deserved a lot of credit also,

I like a lot of his songs from the 70’s, it’s hard to pick just one.

I really like his cover of Pinball Wizard

Bernie was the brains, Elton was the heart. They deserve equal credit in their partnership.

Favorite songs:
"Tiny Dancer"
"I'm Still Standing"
"Your Song"
"Daniel"
