Brandon Flowers has played at Glastonbury many times, but Elton still wants him there. The two have known each other since 2005.
During the performance, Elton strings his beats together. With Rina Sayama he sang the duet he sang with Kiki D in the 1970s: “Don’t Break My Heart”. By the way, the Japanese/British singer had already performed on Saturday. During her show she also brought a guest. That was Matty Healy from 1975.
The first guest to bring Elton on stage was Jacob Lusk from the British band Gabriels. He performed “Are You Ready for Love” with the Gospel Choir? To listen. Elton said he was grateful to Fatboy Slim for bringing the song to life.
American Stephen Sanchez was the second guest. Elton said he heard the California-born singer-songwriter on the radio and was instantly impressed. “When I was allowed to choose the guests for this show, I wanted new artists,” he said. Elton also said he had a crush on the 20-year-old singer. Together they played “Untill I Found You”, Stephen’s hit. A slightly moved Stephen thanked Elton for inviting him.
There has been a lot of speculation about the four guests lately. Dua Lipa and Britney Spears have been considered, and singers Elton have also been working lately. Elton played “Cold Heart,” his hit with Dua Lipa. He asked the audience to sing the singer’s vocal part.
The audience at the show is delirious. Almost all songs are sung word for word. Elton seems to be enjoying it. He said at the beginning of the show that he would never forget this evening.
