Elton John has been in France after the end of his ambitious and ever-extended final tour, Farewell Yellow Brick Road, which concluded on July 8 in Stockholm.
The tour commenced in September 2018 and was originally intended to conclude in 2021. But due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the tour was first paused and then lengthened with further runs of dates.
Elton John played 330 concerts, including a memorable headline set at the Glastonbury festival. The tour’s setlist was tailored to feature a stacked run of his biggest hits.
During the Covid lockdowns, Elton John recorded The Lockdown Sessions, an album of remote or socially distanced collaborations with artists including Stevie Wonder, Lil Nas X, Stevie Nicks, Gorillaz and Metallica.
‘Cold Heart’, a song with Dua Lipa that interpolated elements of previous John hits, topped the charts in the UK and 12 other countries.
