Well, there's a few...There's Paul E. John, Even Steven, and about 2,000,000 others..they all seem to have faded into obscurity...I guess there really IS nothin' like the real thing, baby!

Oh, wait, sorry..I just noticed the 'Joshua Kadison' part of the subject line...gee, I don't know...he really DID sounds like Elton, though, especially 'Beautiful in my Eyes'...I didn't think he was that talented...all his songs were great, but they also all sounded the same. I know he put out another album after the 1st one, and it's now a big hit at bargain bins everywhere...it's funny, though...Elton and Josh had the exact same voice, but Elton became a superstar, and Josh didn't...it just goes to prove there's a lot more to Elton than the incredible voice!

Yes, that's true, especially the French...as Elton said in the Storytellers broadcast, until 'Sorry Seems To Be...,' you "couldn't give him away there!" But then again, these people LOVE Jerry Lewis...I wouldn't exactly look to them as the ultimate trendsetters of taste. ;-)

Well not EXACTLY the same voice but close enough so that when i first
heard Jessie on the radio i went to the record store and asked for
Elton's new album with the Jessie song on it :o). I know *DUH*.
But he was pretty darn good and let's hope he perhaps makes another
album and who know's maybe we have Elton Jr ... remember many didn't
except Elton until the release of Blue Moves

Arthur :o)
