Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Though this thread just reminds me of the trainwreck (in the best sense of the word) that was Elton John night on Season 3 of American Idol.

Elton John has dozens of great songs, but I've got to go with Your Song - - always a beautiful song, but all the more reinforced by it's ultra-romantic use in Moulin Rouge!.
A second choice might be the seldom heard Song For Guy, from the album A Single Man.

Another great song that doesn't leap to the tip of my tongue when I consider this topic - - Elton and Bernie's back catalog is stuffed with quality songs.
I like many Elton John songs, but he's never been a musician that I've focused on a la, say, Phil Collins, to pick an artist from before my time. But my favourites of his are "I'm Still Standing" and "Tiny Dancer". I'm appalled the former isn't in the poll - probably Elton's greatest song. Such a top, top anthem.
