Birthday – BERNIE TAUPIN (71)

May 22, 2021

Bernard John Taupin (born 22 May 1950) is an English lyricist, poet, singer and artist. He is best known for his long-term collaboration with Elton John, having written the lyrics for most of John’s songs.

In 1967, Taupin answered an advertisement placed in the UK music paper New Musical Express by Liberty Records, a company that was seeking new songwriters.  John responded to the same advertisement and they were brought together, collaborating on many projects since.  Taupin and John were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1992.
