I guess now isn't the time to say that I've NEVER owned an Elton John album in my life. :wink:

:o

I do, if you hadn't guessed. :P Just wait until I get to enter all the singles and LPs and CDs and you'll despair of me. Mind you, I have help, as my Elton John collection is nothing compared to someone else we know. :P

I guess you two were meant for each other. And I suppose you'll live in a house on a yellow brick road. :P

I've never heard of people being meant for each other because they like Elton John before. :P I can guarantee there's no yellow brick road around here, I live in a cul-de-sac so does that mean I live on a "Road to Nowhere"? :wink:
