13 listopada ukaże się „Jewel Box” Eltona Johna zawierający osiem płyt CD, na których znajdą się liczne nagrania z całej kariery. Aż 60 z nich wcześniej nie było publikowanych.
Elton John, który osobiście sprawował pieczę nad powstawaniem boxu, mówi:
Z ogromną przyjemnością zagłębiłem się w poszczególne okresy mojej kariery. Kiedy usłyszałem ponownie te dawno zapomniane piosenki, nie mogłem uwierzyć, jak płodni byliśmy z Berniem Taupinem.
Piosenki się z nas wylewały, a zespół niesamowicie radził sobie w studio. Zawsze patrzę w przyszłość, ale w trakcie lockdownu miałem czas pogrzebać we wspomnieniach, co też zrobiłem z przyjemnością.
Box zapowiada utwór „Sing Me No Sad Songs”, który możecie wysłuchać poniżej.
