When Abby Blogs: Can you feel the Rocket Man tonight? - Elton John All the Hits Tour 2016 in Singapore

The main reason we went to Singapore last November in 2015 was well, to feel the love tonight.....

Yes. It was to see the Rocket Man, Elton John himself!

I bought tickets a couple of months prior, before we even thought about our flight and accommodation! My boyfriend and I are oldies at heart, and we love oldies, so we were really excited when we found out Elton John was going to be performing all his hits at a place so near us!

I lolololove Elton John and I think he really is one of the best musicians to have graced the world of music. He is so talented and he has the voice of an angel, and trust me- he did not disappoint. Even at the age of 68, he KILLED the whole night. His pitch, his vocals, his range, his PIANO playing skills was all. on. POINT. (Seriously--- how talented can this man get?!) And mind you, he was being nursed with a cold while he was performing that night.

The concert was at the Star Performing Arts centre, which was a new place. We took a myTaxi there too.

Here is his Set list for his concert that night:

I remember getting utter CHILLS when he opened "Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word" (for some reason, it isn't on the set list but he did perform it. Link here). I think the word for it would be "Majestic" and nothing short at that.

He would make a little small talk in between a couple of tracks, and he said he was so glad to be back in Singapore for the concert. He also pulled a lucky boy onstage and gave him his autograph.

The closing of the concert was amazing, he gave an encore of "Crocodile Rock" and everybody remembered when rock was young.
I was quite bummed that the crowd at where I was seated, the upper tier, was very toned down and didn't even stand when Elton John encored. I of course, threw caution to the WIND and jumped up from my seat and danced along, because 1. it was Elton Mafreakin John performing onstage, 2. because, LA LA LA LA LA LAAAAA, 3. it was the most amazing concert!

Well, actually it was my first concert, but it has truly set standards for any future concerts I attend. I now have really high standards.

*starry eyed

We arrived around 45min early because .. when in Rome hahahaha

okay, I know you're not supposed or allowed to snap pictures inside but I was so suaku and so excited, so here are a few pictures I took. My seat was quite far away so technically, you can't see anything except bright lights so I guess technically I wasn't really that much in the wrong (self console)
