Rocket Man Sir Elton John is still standing better than he ever did as he approaches his 75th birthday on Friday.
For millions of his fans, any celebrations will be tinged with sadness as Elton is on his last world tour. Farewell Yellow Brick Road is in America and reaches Europe and the UK this summer.
The legend, who has sold more than 300 million records and performed more than 4,000 concerts, wants to spend more time with sons, Zachary, 10, and Elijah, 8, and husband David Furnish, 59.
