Y El Sucio Cowboy Marrón
John (derecha) y Taupin (izquierda) fueron una de las parejas compositoras más prolíficas de los años setenta.
Tomando el relevo de Bohemian Rhapsody y The Dirt, este año se estrena Rocketman, una nueva película biográfica musical centrada en la figura de Elton John. Con 225 millones de discos vendidos a lo largo de los años y más de 30 singles colocados en el top 40 de las listas de éxitos de casi todo el mundo, el pianista de las gafas imposibles es indiscutiblemente uno de los nombres más importantes en la historia de la música pop. Un éxito que, sin embargo, no se podría entender sin la figura de Bernie Taupin, el letrista que siempre ha estado ahí colocando la palabra ideal en sus melodías totales. Si hay una canción que describe la relación entre Bernie Taupin y Elton John es “We All Fall in Love Sometimes”, tema del álbum autobiográfico de 1975, Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy. “Cada letra en ese álbum era sobre Bernie y yo y sobre todo lo que habíamos vivido juntos. De todo ello, luego hacíamos canciones”, explicaba el hombre cohete sobre este tema en una entrevista concedida hace años a la edición americana de la revista Rolling Stone. “Siempre lloro cuando canto esta canción. En esa época estaba enamorado de Bernie. Pero no enamorado de una manera sexual, sino porque era la persona que había andado buscando toda mi vida, mi pequeña alma gemela”, sentenciaba.
Elton John, cuando era Reginald Dwight y soñaba con ser una estrella de la música. Quién se lo iba a decir.
