Elton John Glastonbury Bingo! Suggestions..?

487 replies

I need enough to have at least 40 (ideally).

I have, so far, numerous songs, and suggestions for who the mystery guests will be.

I also have names of people who'd potentially be mentioned or spotted (as there won't be commentary during the set, just before - it's not as easy as it is when doing, say, Royal Wedding bingo!)

Each card will have a mixture of the obvious and the not so obvious.

However, hive mind, more suggestions would be great - I have 32 so far, but can also omit some if other better one's come up. There are five of us to make cards for.

Current list is below...

  1. I’m Still Standing
  2. Legend
  3. Harry Styles
  4. Paul McCartney
  5. Britney Spears
  6. Final
  7. Promises to be different
  8. Lady Gaga
  9. First time at Glastonbury
  10. Final UK show
  11. Rocket Man
  12. Kate Bush
  13. Special Guest
  14. Royalty
  15. Honky Cat
  16. The Bitch is Back
  17. Border Song
  18. Tiny Dancer
  19. Showman
  20. Ed Sheeran
  21. Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me
  22. Don’t Go Breaking My Heart
  23. Candle In the Wind
  24. Your Song
  25. Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
  26. I Guess That’s Why They Call It The Blues
  27. Dua Lipa
  28. David Furnish
  29. Collaborations
  30. Circle Of Life
  31. Sworn to secrecy

I thought it was going to be Harry 🥺

BigPeople · 25/06/2023 21:59

I mean it’s sweet that he wants to give new artists exposure but I don’t think anyone wants to hear Steven what’s his name droning on

poorbuthappy · 25/06/2023 22:00

Great voice.

BigPeople · 25/06/2023 22:00

Harry & Elton would’ve been great

HangingOver · 25/06/2023 22:01

What a lovely song

AutumnCrow · 25/06/2023 22:01

Ah, Elton's told him to enjoy it and never forget it

petalpower · 25/06/2023 22:01

Great voice

KittyCatStevens · 25/06/2023 22:01

Lovely song. Could have done without SS droning on beforehand tho.

BotterMon · 25/06/2023 22:01

Rather easy on the eye this Steven Sanchez and great voice. He's only 20 so a cougar moment for me!

Elton is slaying it. To play piano like him at 76 is incredible. Really hope PMc doesn't come on. Would love Adam Lambert though.

Teabutnotasweknowit · 25/06/2023 22:02

I was once at an Elton concert when he stopped singing to tell us the football scores Grin

Munchyseeds2 · 25/06/2023 22:02

He looked so happy!

Countdown2023 · 25/06/2023 22:03

Was that Lizzo singing along ?

Piscesmumma1978 · 25/06/2023 22:03

I wasn't looking forward to EJ but he's fab 🌈💙

Eupemiaroses · 25/06/2023 22:03

Think they over egged the pudding with these 'special' guests. Might as well have just picked some random people from the audience

AutumnCrow · 25/06/2023 22:03

Munchyseeds2 · 25/06/2023 22:02

He looked so happy!

That's what it's all about really - music = happiness

Liann811 · 25/06/2023 22:04

He is amazing still got the voice but I'm sorry but so far I never heard of special guests.

Gateappreciation · 25/06/2023 22:04

Quite enjoyed the guest star. Is’t Elton known for promoting new artists?

AutumnCrow · 25/06/2023 22:05

Elton's giving them their big break before he snuffs it.

I'd like to think I would too.

Comefromaway · 25/06/2023 22:06

He paid a friends music college fees. Not that unusual but he also phoned him up personally.

I see it’s getting dark there…sun still shining here in Dublin

I’m shocked at how dark it is there, it’s still broad daylight in Scotland too! I hate this time of year, it really messes up my body clock as I never see proper darkness!

excelledyourself · 25/06/2023 22:06

What an opportunity to give that guy.

Teabutnotasweknowit · 25/06/2023 22:06

Yes. He had 2 Serbian cellists on one time I saw him.

Piscesmumma1978 · 25/06/2023 22:06

We're 15 minutes away from Glastonbury, it's dark here!!

bellac11 · 25/06/2023 22:06

Hes big on new talent I think.

Munchyseeds2 · 25/06/2023 22:07

We will hear more stories of kindness in time I think
Just like with GM
