Ik ken alleen de hits van Elton, maar van Billy zou ik eigenlijk enkel niet-hits nomineren (die ik dan weer hoger in zou schalen dan de meeste nummers van Elton). De hits van Billy zijn zeker niet zijn beste nummers en bovendien vaak ook kapot gedraaid.

Is wat mij betreft bij Elton John niet veel anders eigenlijk, enkele toppers als Daniel daargelaten...

Van beiden nou niet bepaald de mooiste songs in de finale, een paar uitzonderingen daar gelaten. Ook ik zou van Joel voornamelijk album tracks hebben voorgedragen. Maar het gaat hier nu eenmaal om de hits. Beiden hebben een geweldig oeuvre opgebouwd.
Geweldige battle keuze, vigil

Ik vind qua battle (gelijkwaardigheid) dit inderdaad ook een uitstekende keuze. Beide veel hits, beiden betere albumtracks (blijkbaar) en beide een breed publiek, maar toch in grote groepen ondergewaardeerd (dit geldt voor Elton mogelijk bij mijzelf).

Jammer dat Goodbye Yellow Brick Road er niet bij zit.

Volgens mij kunnen we een veel langere lijst dan de startlijst met nummers maken van welke het jammer is dat die er niet bij zitten....

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road is echter wel zijn beste nummer.
