Just a few weeks ago, Sir Elton John was honored by Prince Charles, appointed to the prestigious and exclusive Order of Companions of Honor for his musical and charitable work. You might expect something like this to be the crowning achievement of a career spanning over five decades and countless accolades – but it still feels like Elton John, at 74, just doesn’t do it. what to start.

He recently marked his ranking in 16 years, thanks to a song from his latest album, The confinement sessions. This record which sees him work with some of the hottest names in pop, American and rap music, as well as lesser-known artists – you’ll feel Elton’s genuine enthusiasm and awe for these artists when he talks about them all today. In this session we talk about being inspired, finding musical chemistry and of course we’ll hear a bunch of songs from Lockdown sessions.
