“Elton and I have finished working on the album, which will be released soon. I would prefer not to reveal too many details, I have been strictly forbidden. I can only say that the album is ready,” Taupin said during The Other Songs Live event in London, quoted by ” “The Sun”.

Despite plans to release a new album, the singer does not announce any further concerts. It is possible that he will limit himself only to creating music and appearing in the media.
“I will record records and perform on the radio, but when it comes to performing? I'm fed up with the applause. I want to be with my family, with my boys. I will still be creative, but I don't want to spend the rest of my life flying here and there,” he previously told NME.
