...but he's doing his own singing in the movie anyway. What the actual fuck? This is going to be a disaster.

They need to do an Ozzie biopic next, so many crazy stories involving that guy (failed burglar, biting the head off a bite, being married to succubus)

I'm not quite sure he can act, either.

In these pics, he really looks like a young Elton, but I´m one of those who thinks that Taron Egerton can´t sing.   |

They probably just should have cast Justin Timberlake for this. Elton and Taron were together in Kingsman: The Golden Circle. I remember reading an article where Elton was so happy because Taron would play him. I don´t know if Elton chose him, but he definitely has his blessing.

It took me 5 minutes on Youtube to find a guy who could do the singing voice for this movie.

He can always lip-synch. Jamie Foxx did it for "Ray".

Dwight couldn't string two words of a lyric together to save his life so I trust Bernie Taupin will get some decent credit in the film. But is anyone seriously going to pay good money to see a film such as this? He didn't even re-write the lyrics to Candle in the Wind for the death of Princess Diana, though people the world over assume he did, after hearing his 'heart-tugging' rendition of Taupin's rewritten lyrics.
He can belt out a melody on a piano but bereft of any words to get him going there would be no Elton John.
He was quite good in the film Tommy, and I quite like the audio of I'm Still Standing and Sacrifice , but other than that I see and hear nothing that should warrant praise. An over-rated wanna be Liberace.

Wrong, he's a musical genius that can make a song out of an oven manual. Again, he's useless without someone else's words to work with, even if it means making a meal of utilizing a household instruction booklet as a crutch. That was embarrassing, a haphazard example of his ineptitude to compose a song off his own back, with his own lyrics. Richard E Grant perhaps should have said "Sing us a song now using your own words." Instead of that we get a sycophantic audience delighting in a pantomime where Dwight, resorting to third-rate vaudeville-esque pomp and an all too familiar and generic melody, stumbles through an attempt to perform a "song".

Have you seen Bohemian Rhapsody, the movie? I recommend it. I knew very little of Queen's music but it's a real foot-stomper during the musical scenes. "iTunes" sarcasm aside, it's healthy to vent spleen now and again on here.
