Elton John Glastonbury Bingo! Suggestions..?

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

Was that Lizzo singing along ?

Yes it was.

Who was next to her! Blonde actress?

Gherkingreen · 25/06/2023 22:08

Oof. This track never fails to hit me right in the gut 😫. His voice is brilliant now he's warmed up and every song is legendary. What a cracking last gig.

GreggAndTomlette · 25/06/2023 22:08

@HadEnoughOfBears Kate Hudson!

bellac11 · 25/06/2023 22:08

I love him but he is not unlike the Vic Reeves pub singer parody.

Ive seen him live a few times and he is the same each time, mumble mumble, slur slur, rush rush through the lyrics, singing them all out of time.

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

Meanwhile up north! And that’s on a cloudy night.

Scotland gets an hours extra daylight at this time of year compared to us southerners (and fewer daylight hours in the winter).

Thought this would be one of his final songs.

HadEnoughOfBears · 25/06/2023 22:10

Does everyone know that Stephen Sanchez and that song are (thanks to the millions paid in PR to TikTok) absolutely huge?

HadEnoughOfBears · 25/06/2023 22:11

GreggAndTomlette · 25/06/2023 22:08

@HadEnoughOfBears Kate Hudson!

Thanks! I was Googling like mad!

Bluebells1970 · 25/06/2023 22:11

OOOOH brandon flowers. Fuck me, that's a guest and a half.

Loving this!!!

excelledyourself · 25/06/2023 22:11

Excellent!!

woodstocky · 25/06/2023 22:11

I knew it from tiktok. I think a lot of that crowd had no idea!

Getabloominmoveon · 25/06/2023 22:11

Good to hear all his classics. EJ was my first big concert at the Liverpool Empire in May 1976 on his Captain Fantastic Tour when I was 14. Amazing performer then and now.

Liann811 · 25/06/2023 22:12

Finally someone to know Brandon flowers

groupery · 25/06/2023 22:12

Brandon's teeth are dreadful

ChampagneCommunist · 25/06/2023 22:13

Tiny Dancer - my favourite. And Brandon Flowers. I so would

bellac11 · 25/06/2023 22:13

Captain Fantastic is probably the best album of all time for me.

mrsdolittle · 25/06/2023 22:13

BRANDON FLOWERS!!!!! ❤️

BlueLiquid · 25/06/2023 22:13

Cripes, what had Brandon done to his face?

He looks like a tele-evangelist.

Nope. Because I've never even looked at TikTok.

Chocolatecoveredshitpig · 25/06/2023 22:13

Ooh a proposal in the crowd! Was that on the bingo card???
