‘It was written as a kind of a joke’
Sir Elton John has vowed never to perform his hit song ‘Crocodile Rock’ following the end of his Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour.
During a recent appearance on footballer Troy Deeney’s podcast, Deeney Talks, the singer revealed the song was written as a “joke” and “pastiche” an imitation of the rock-and-roll records of the ’50s and ’60s.
