Twenty-five years after winning Best Original Song at the Oscars, Elton John took home the trophy again for Rocketman
During his speech, Elton thanked his longtime lyricist Bernie Taupin, with whom he wrote the song, for being"the constant thing in my life," and said that the win is"a dream for us." He also shouted out, who portrayed him in the biopic. Meanwhile, Taupin sweetly said,"Being here with this guy, I don't have words for it. This is justification for 53 years of just hammering it out and doing what we do.
Elton's win came just minutes after he performed" Love Me Again" on the Oscars stage. It was a characteristically dazzling display of his showmanship: He wore a bright purple suit with a rocket pinned on the lapel, had a full band backing him, and performed on a red piano in front of two giant stars reminiscent of his iconic sunglasses.
