    I'll pass. This is nothing special. Just the stuff we already have in a shiny new package....
    Although I'd love to hear "On Saturday Night My Worth Living" and "Like a Fire in the Wind."

    When I read the track list, I wondered if some of the titles were a victim of bad Japanese translating.

    Yea I want to hear those tracks too!:D

    What would be nice is if he would do a box set similar to what Queen and the Rolling Stones which contains EVERY single and it's respective b-side with sleeve artwork

    Just think it's time for something different with a little thought

    A box set like that for Elton would weigh more than six copies of War And Peace! :)

    No excuse for skipping over Tumbleweed-- or Captain & the Kid, since there's something from most of the other latter day albums. And wasn't "The One" an actual hit?

    Yes it was - he made a big deal over it on Facebook the other week

    No he would put some stuff on it that’s not available on cd. The mastering would also be somewhat even on all the discs, good or bad.

    But would you go UK singles or US?

    Some of those song title translations are just hilarious.

    I'm thinking there's going to be a 2-CD version (which I think is probably the same as the tracklist above) and a 3-cd version.

    Well it depends - the queen sets has some of Euro singles within so I guess it's open to discussion

    He has so many hits - some much beloved and others ... less so - that it's easy to pick songs that are missing from the list that Kevin55 provided. Wouldn't most fans pick Empty Garden over Blue Eyes? Or maybe This Train Don't Stop over I Want Love? And there's boatloads of other tracks that were/are well-known: Border Song, Levon, Lucy In The Sky, Mama Can't Buy You Love...

    Plus there are a couple on that listing that were absolute nothing tracks in the US. I get that Song For Guy was a sweet gesture (and a UK hit) but is it really a good song? Was Electricity even issued in the US? Makes me wonder if this will have varying tracklists by country... And what's with it being chronological up until the end, and then having Lion King tracks sort of randomly inserted? o_O

    It's not really chronological though - there are errors - 'Island Girl' sits before 'someone saved...'

    I'm surprised they didn't include the b side: Like a Fire in My Butt (Burrito Mix)

    Yeah, and I'd say that overall it shares the one glaring error with nearly every other Elton compilation: It shortchanges the rock and roll.

    Yeah, but they're both from 1975, so I can live with that.

    But "Disc two" finishes like this...
    10 Something About The Way You Look Tonight (1997)
    11 I Want Love (2001)
    12 Can You Feel The Love Tonight (1994)
    13 Are You Ready For Love? (2003)
    14 Electricity (2004)
    15 Home Again (2013)
    16 Looking Up (2016)
    17 Circle Of Life (1994)​
    That's just goofy to me, when the rest of the set flowed logically. :shrug:
