TAUPIN’S ‘HIDDEN MESSAGES’
Songwriter BERNIE TAUPIN has revealed he writes hidden messages into the songs he creates for SIR ELTON JOHN.
The acclaimed lyricist, who has worked in partnership with Sir Elton for 40 years, frequently takes full advantage of his position to sneak cryptic messages into their music - with the ROCKET MAN star often only realising years afterwards.
He admits, "I’ve always tried to be aware of his feelings or his social or political bent, but sometimes I can be cryptic, so I’ve slid things in there that I know he won’t realise until later on.
"I’ve been standing on the side of the stage ten years after I’ve written a certain lyric and he’s come off stage and said, ‘I’ve just realised what you said in that song.’"
