He began studying piano at the age of six and trained at the Royal Academy of Music. In 1962 he changed his name to Elton John and started his musical career as a keyboardist for various artists, including Bluesology. In 1967 he met lyricist Bernie Taupin, with whom he has collaborated consistently ever since. Their first album together, *Empty Sky*, was released in 1969. Success came with the 1970 album *Tumbleweed Connection* and the hit *Your Song*. Throughout the 1970s John became a global superstar with albums like *Goodbye Yellow Brick Road* (1973), *Caribou* (1974) and *Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy* (1975). His most famous songs include *Tiny Dancer*, *Rocket Man*, *Bennie and the Jets*, *Candle in the Wind* and *Don't Go Breaking My Heart*.
