That passion evolved from my very favorite album of all time "Elton John"
to his pop days to the present. He has just released a new collaboration with the man who was his music idol, Leon Russell. That's what happens when you follow your passion. You just never want to stop working! Because it doesn't feel like work. It's fun! It's exhilarating! It always feels new! It's the only way you can breathe!
I caught the two, both men over 60 on The View singing this song off their new album The Union. It's appropriately called "You're Never Too Old."
Do you think there are things you're too old for anymore?

Hey Jo- If you were in the very back row at Carnegie Hall that night in 1970, I think I was at that concert with you!! Just talking to my brother and sister-in-law about Elton and Leon the other day. Elton has been a long time favorite of mine as well. - Julie
One of my favorites. Cannot get enought Elton. "burn down the mission" and "funeral for a friend" into "love lies bleeding"
LEVEL ME, every time. Nice article. Cannot imagine Elton doing anything else.
I saw the new album on iTunes the other day and loved it. He has always been one of my favorites. I saw him at Madison Square Garden in the early 80s.
Penelope, "Funeral for a Friend" has always been one of my all-time favorites!
