Sir Elton John's next album 'won't be his last', songwriting partner says

• An album of "incredibly personal" new songs from Sir Elton John won't be the singer's last, according to his long-term songwriting partner Bernie Taupin. Few details are known about what fans can expect from Sir Elton's new music, but the legendary lyricist says he thinks it will be released before Christmas. "It's all done, it's all in the can and ready to come out, I think, at the end of this year," Taupin told Sky News.
