      For me, Billy's worst may be the "most annoying"
      ("Tell Her About it" "Uptown Girl" "I Go To Extremes"
      etc.)
      but...
      I'm so nonplussed about ELTON material that I'd say
      I'm basically "bored" by just about EVERYTHING Elton
      has ever released.

      While on the flipside, I think everything Billy released from
      1971 (COLD SPRING HARBOR) up until 1982 (NYLON CURTAIN)
      is a perfect set of releases. Nine tight albums.

            My last radio job was working at a station that played adult contemporary so i pretty much hate them both with added vigor.

                Lo they do call me.
                They bid me take my place among them.

                          I grew up listening to Elton John. He was one of those major stars of my youth that I latched onto. So to this day I'm still an Elton John fan. I don't have much use for his post 70's stuff, but his 70's music is still some of my favorite stuff.

                          I also like most pre-Christie Brinkley era Billy Joel.

                          So to sum up, I'm a fan of both.

                            Pretty sure most know where I stand on this one. And Elton ain't far behind.
