Elton's Career Soars to New Heights Again

Sir Elton John, a star so bright,
Reached his 10th UK number one, a wondrous sight.
Who Believes In Angels? topped the charts with ease,
A collaboration with Brandi Carlile, a musical tease.

52 years after his first number one fame,
Elton's career still shines with a burning flame.
He told the BBC with a grin so wide,
"It's extraordinary, my career has survived."

The album's a tearjerker, a work of art so fine,
A "late-career high" that's truly divine.
Critics rave, the reviews are all so bright,
A "gutsy, flamboyant" album that's a pure delight.

But the journey wasn't easy, oh no, not at all,
Elton was nervous, irritable, and prone to a fall.
He was recovering from a hip replacement, you see,
And working in a new way, with a new team.

He slammed down his headphones, shouted with stress,
Ripped up song lyrics, and threatened to dismiss.
But with Brandi Carlile, Andrew Watt, and Bernie too,
The album finally came together, a beautiful thing to do.
