In addition to his commercial success, Elton John's talent has been recognized with five Grammy awards and two Academy Awards. His influence on popular music cannot be overstated; he has had a profound impact on the industry and contributed to the enduring popularity of incorporating piano into rock and roll.
In recognition of his exceptional songwriting abilities, Elton John was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1992. Furthermore, his contributions to music were honored when he was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1994 as a performer.

. He sits at his piano playing sentimental melodies, but the words come not from inside his soul but from friend Bernie Taupin. For Captain Fantastic, he and Taupin wrote a concept album which sketches their career together. "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" is easily the strongest song outside of the concept. The addition of several songs "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" featuring John Lennon, "Philadelphia Freedom," and "One Day at a Time" blow the concept but up the entertainment value considerably.
