L'uscita di "Diamonds" coincide con il 50° anniversario del sodalizio artistico con Bernie Taupin, uno dei più duraturi di tutti i tempi. Elton dice: «La nostra relazione è più salda che mai. In certi momenti abbiamo scritto con altre persone, ma non abbiamo mai smesso di volerci bene. Amo Bernie e credo lui provi la stessa cosa per me. Lo straordinario rispetto e l'amore reciproco sono sempre cresciuti fra noi». Bernie replica: «C'è qualcosa di magico quando ci riuniamo per scrivere insieme; e quella sensazione non è invecchiata».
L'annuncio di "Diamonds" arriva in un momento in cui la rilevanza di Elton nel mondo della musica, del fashion e dell'entertainment è più importante che mai. Solo la settimana sorsa Gucci ha svelato la collezione primavera/estate 2018 firmata da Alessandro Michele ed ispirata all'inimitabile stile di Elton. È uscito il film - Kingsman: The Golden Circle - in cui Elton John appare nel divertente ruolo di sé stesso.
Una carriera inimitabile, una musica che continua a riempire gli stadi e a scalare le classifiche, conquistando sempre nuovi fan, di tutte le età.
