Podcast appearances and mentions of reginald dwight

Plongez dans les débuts de la carrière d'Elton John, de son enfance difficile en Angleterre jusqu'à sa rencontre déterminante avec le parolier Bernie Taupin. Découvrez comment le jeune Reginald Dwight, un enfant complexé et manquant de confiance en lui, s'est mué en la superstar mondiale qu'est devenu Elton John.Dès son plus jeune âge, Elton John montre un talent musical exceptionnel. Élevé dans une famille où les tensions sont palpables, il se réfugie dans la musique, collectionnant les disques et apprenant par cœur leurs moindres détails. À 11 ans, il intègre la prestigieuse Royal Academy of Music, où la simple évocation du rock 'n' roll est un sacrilège. Mais c'est là qu'il apprend les bases de la composition, des connaissances qui lui seront précieuses par la suite.À 15 ans, Elton John commence à jouer du piano en public, décrochant son premier emploi dans un bar d'hôtel. Il monte ensuite son premier groupe, Bluesology, et apprend les ficelles du métier en accompagnant d'autres artistes. C'est alors qu'il décide de prendre le nom d'Elton John, estimant que Reg Dwight n'a pas le cachet d'une véritable star.La rencontre avec Bernie Taupin, en répondant à une annonce d'une maison de disques, va être déterminante pour la suite de sa carrière. Ensemble, ils forment un duo créatif hors pair, Elton composant les mélodies pendant que Bernie noircit les pages de paroles. Leur première chanson, "I've Been Loving You", voit le jour en 1968, sans grand succès. Mais c'est avec le deuxième album d'Elton John, sorti en 1970 et propulsé par le tube "Your Song", que sa carrière décolle véritablement. Retracez l'incroyable parcours d'Elton John, de ses débuts modestes à sa consécration en tant qu'icône de la musique pop. Un épisode passionnant à ne pas manquer !

Welcome to Five Brilliant Things, or as it used to be known, Wonderbox.  Like a latter-day Reginald Dwight we've had a wee name change - everything else is the same show that you know and love.  And this week, the irrepressible Giovanna Fletcher is in the studio to explain the beauty of silent discos (Russell disagrees), the majesty of a dibber and some top tips for dropping your guts on a mountain.  It's a brilliant chat that bobs along at a lick, taking in Giovanna's writing career, her performing and getting into the practical challenges of trekking across the Himalayas. Giovanna can be found weekly on her Happy Mum Happy Baby podcast, and she'll be appearing across the UK in the upcoming stage production of The Girl on the Train. 

Since at least March 1968, the world has been gifted with original music by Reginald Dwight, the artist better known as Elton John. From the 60s up through the 2020s, Mr. John would go on to have one of the most successful music careers in pop history, spanning 31 studio albums, 10 soundtracks, 5 live albums, 16 compilation albums, and a slew of awards and accolades. Now that Elton has recently retired from live performing, the Great Pop Culture Debate wants to look back at his inimitable songbook and attempt to determine the Best Elton John Single of all time. We consider: “Your Song,” “Honky Cat,” “Don't Go Breaking My Heart,” “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” “Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me,” “The Bitch is Back,” “Crocodile Rock,” “I'm Still Standing,” “Rocket Man,” “Philadelphia Freedom,” “Tiny Dancer,” “I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues,” “Candle in the Wind,” “Bennie and the Jets,” and more. Join host Eric Rezsnyak, GPCD panelists Derek Mekita and Kate Racculia, and extra-special guest John Higgins, Feature Writer at EltonJohn.com and Sir Elton's personal archivist, as they discuss 16 of the Rocket Man's most beloved songs, narrowing them down until they make their final decision!

Det här är berättelsen om självförakt, förvirrad sexualitet, extravaganta outfits och inte minst en otrolig låtskatt. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. – God morgon gullet, minns du att du kastade apelsiner på Bob Dylan i går? frågar en mild mansröst från andra sidan linjen. Luren av bakelit känns svalkande mot Eltons värkande tinningar. Han är fortfarande full och sitter i morgonrocken på sängkanten i sitt sovrum. Gardinerna är fördragna men ute står solen högt på den klarblå himlen över hans hem i Beverly Hills, denna oktoberdag 1975. Försiktigt drar han undan gardinen och tittar ner mot trädgården. Elton John är tjugoåtta år och för ögonblicket världens största popstjärna. Han har just invigt sin egen stjärna på Hollywood Walk of Fame och om 24 timmar ska han spela de mest prestigefyllda gigen i sin karriär på Dodger Stadium. Utåt sett är allt perfekt. Till och med vädret är perfekt. Nere vid poolen sitter hans mamma och mormor, tillsammans med ett gäng vänner och journalister, som alla är influgna från England för att fira framgångarna. På vägen ut sätter han på sig ett par solglasögon och stannar till vid spegeln. Till sin stora besvikelse är det hans forna jag som tittar tillbaka på honom: Den tunnhåriga och knubbiga Reginald Dwight från den trötta Londonförorten Pinner. Han känner sig tyngd av självförakt, men också av pillerburkarna i fickorna. Elton tar en näve valium. De smakar bittert, men han sköljer ner dem med en flaska sprit. När han kommer ut till poolen meddelar han sitt sällskap att han tagit en överdos och kommer att vara död inom en timme. Sen kastar han sig i poolen.

In the latest season of Wondery's Even The Rich, hosts Brooke and Aricia tell the story of Elton John. Before he was Reginald Dwight. Reginald hates who he is: a chubby, awkward kid from a fractured English home. So he escapes through music, and reinvents himself as Elton John. The journey take him far away from his neglected childhood and morphs him into a spoiled, coke-addicted rock superstar. But underneath the glitz and glamour, an inescapable sadness persists. No matter how many hit records he makes or lines he snorts, Elton can't escape himself. His world eventually crashes down in a torrent of addictions, depression, and self-loathing. But when he finally learns to love himself, he grows into the person he was meant to be, enabling thousands of others to do so and becoming an LGBTQ icon.Listen to the rest of this episode at wondery.fm/ETR_RichAndDaily.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We could not let Kate's birthday month go by without watching a musical. She chose Rocketman, a fantastical true story musical that follows the life of Elton John. We see him grow from shy Reginald Dwight to the rockstar sensation that is Sir Elton John. When you think of a musical it is usually associated with words like "hokey" or "cheerful". However, that is not the case for this film. Rocketman deals with hard topics like substance abuse, domestic abuse, emotional abuse and suicide. Seeing the portrayal of Elton John's road to recovery and sobriety is truly inspiring. The big question is...was this musical good enough to impress self proclaimed musical disliker Ashley? You'll have to listen to find out.

How do you follow up the 70’s if you are Elton John? Can you successfully. The 1980's Output of Elton John: How Was It? Rating his 80s singles. In 1970, Elton’s first hit single, "Your Song", from his second album, Elton John, became his first top ten in both the UK and the US. His most commercially successful period was 1970–1976, with the albums Honky Château (1972), Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player (1973), Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (1973) and his first Greatest Hits compilation. In this episode, we talk about how Elton’s piano playing is integral to the success of his best hits, and hear why.  Might he even be underrated (or at least not appreciated like it should be) as a piano player?  Are there any certifiable classics worthy of his 70s greatness?  We could argue - and we might. - that Elton was the biggest rock and pop music artist coming out of the 1970's.  Is it fair to compare the decades?  How could he live up to the ten years that came before? How did Reginald Dwight do with the decade of the 80s? That’s what we will look to discover in this podcast.

Dubbelt upp av lek, mycket mer än så är det inte.

Elton John is met 300 miljoen verkochte albums wereldwijd een van de meest succesvolle artiesten aller tijden. Maar ook hij heeft ooit moeten sappelen. Leo Blokhuis duikt in de vroege jaren van Reginald Dwight, zoals hij dan nog heet, de jaren dat hij aan de kost komt als pianist in de groep Bluesology, sessiewerk doet op grote hits én zijn muzikale kompaan Bernie Taupin ontmoet. Deze week verschijnt een nieuwe box waarop vroeg, niet eerder uitgebracht werk van Elton John te horen is.

La prima storia è quella che ci ha scritto Luca e parla di Olga, una giovane donna che combatte un tumore, della loro relazione, e della musica di Vasco Rossi, colonna sonora del tempo che hanno passato assieme. E Vasco, in questa storia, non ci mette solo le sue canzoni, ma molto di più. Nella seconda parte continuiamo a parlare di artisti generosi con la storia che lega - nel tempo - Reginald Dwight e Linda Hannon, sua fidanzata quando lui non era ancora Elton John. In chiusura c'è la storia seriale dedicata ad Antonina Azoti.

The Geektown Radio podcast this week sees Gray join me once again to chat through the usual tv, film and (shockingly for Gray) gaming news, plus a look at the next week on tv. Additionally, we have an exclusive interview with 'Rocketman' and 'Mary Poppins Returns' Re-recording Mixer, Mike Prestwood Smith.Mike has been working in the film industry since the 90's and has amassed a huge list of credits on films ranging from 'Casino Royale', which won him a BAFTA, 'Captain Phillips', which gained him an Oscar nomination, various 'Harry Potter' movies, 'The Danish Girl', and the 'Kingsman' films. More recently, he has been working on Disney's 'Dumbo', 'Aladdin', 'Mary Poppins Returns', and the Elton John biopic, 'Rocketman', which is released onto streaming services this week, from Saturday, 14th September 2019.Directed by Dexter Fletcher, 'Rocketman' is the epic musical story about Elton John’s breakthrough years. The film follows the fantastical journey of transformation from shy piano prodigy Reginald Dwight into international superstar Elton John. This inspirational story – set to Elton John’s most beloved songs and performed by star Taron Egerton – tells the universally relatable story of how a small-town boy became one of the most iconic figures in pop culture. In the interview we chat about Mike's work on the film, along with delving into some of Disney's most beloved properties in movies such as 'Mary Poppins Returns'.

Every Saturday morning, movie critic Francesca Rudkin joins Jack Tame to take a look at what is playing at the movies this weekend.The Hummingbird ProjectIn this modern epic, Kim Nguyen exposes the ruthless edge of our increasingly digital world. Cousins from New York, Vincent (Jesse Eisenberg) and Anton (Alexander Skarsgård) are players in the high-stakes game of High-Frequency Trading, where winning is measured in milliseconds. Their dream? To build a straight fiber-optic cable line between Kansas and New Jersey, making them millions. But nothing is straightforward for this flawed pair. Anton is the brains, Vincent is the hustler, and together they push each other and everyone around them to the breaking point with their quixotic adventure. Constantly breathing down their necks is their old boss Eva Torres (Salma Hayek), a powerful, intoxicating and manipulative trader who will stop at nothing to come between them and beat them at their own game.RocketmanROCKETMAN is an epic musical fantasy about the incredible human story of Elton John's breakthrough years.

Reginald Dwight, nació el 25 de marzo de 1947, en la localidad inglesa de Pinner. Sus padres fueron Stanley Dwight , fallecido en 1991 a los 66 años y Sheila Eileen Dwight. Cierto día, la madre encontró al pequeño Elton interpretando en el piano de la casa una melodía que acababa de escuchar en la radio. Desde entonces fue incentivado por su abuela para que tocara el piano y fuera músico; con cuatro años ya podía interpretar melodías simples, y a los 7 tocaba música en fiestas familiares. Por aquellos años admiraba a Elvis Presley, Bill Haley & His Comets, Little Richard oJerry Lee Lewis. Educado en la Royal Academy of Music gracias a una beca que consiguió en 1958 a la edad de 11 años, a partir de entonces comenzó a frecuentar dicha escuela, para dar clase los sábados y actuar en el coro. Con el tiempo se dio cuenta de que lo suyo no era la música clásica, por lo que, 6 años después, en 1964, decidió abandonar esta institución para dedicarse a la música rock. A los 15 años trabajaba como pianista en un pub cercano donde le llamaban Reggie. Allí interpretaba canciones de Ray Charles y Jim Reeves. En 1964 Reggie y unos amigos formaron la banda Bluesology, donde conoció al cantante Long John Baldry. Como homenaje a él y al saxofonista Elton Dean adoptó el nombre artístico de Elton John. En 1969 formó parte de la banda Argosy. La única grabación del grupo fueron dos canciones, «Mr. Boyd» e «Imagine».
