I thought of this one when Temptation was posted earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arthur63 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Bernie Taupin - Citizen Jane This is the only hit that I think Bernie had as a solo artist. He had numerous hits with Elton John's as his lyricist. If you listen carefully you'll hear Elton doing backing vocals in this song. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most albums up to Goes To Hell, not sure about after that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.Wayne Thomas - Open Up Your Heart N.B I was aware of the other 2 John Rowles singles, however I included If I Only Had Time because I assumed the others weren't hits even though they did make the charts. Which poses the question.What exactly constitutes a hit? Top 5 or Top 40? "Hush Not A Word..." peaked at #11 in Oz & #9 in NZ. "CMM" at #20 in Oz and #1 in NZ... Lots info here... http://www.sergent.com.au/music/johnrowles.html I think generally Top 40 is the reference, if Top5, this thread wouldn't have grown to 23 pages long! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absorb_sound Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I couldn't resist inserting a comment someone on YouTube made about some of the lyrics in this song = "Clowns to the left jokers on the right...sounds like our political system." 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
