I was hoping for a Crazed option but I'll say Elton cause I every time I hear
"Tiny Dancer" I see the bus scene in Almost Famous.

I love Billy but, he never did anything as bad-ass as THIS.

If you stay within the 1970s, Elton kicks Billy's ass. By 1980 Elton had already become too treacly for me. Billy still had some edgier stuff through the 80s. Now I guess they're basically Vegas acts at this point. They're still great in concert:

Pre-1980, elton would have won. If you have to consider the crap he put out after that, Billy.

I saw Billy about a month ago at Mohegan Sun and he's still an amazing performer.
