Elton John

This motivating sentiment comes from Elton John's 1983 hit "I Guess That’s Why They Call It the Blues," co-written by the singer's longtime lyricist, Bernie Taupin. The songwriting duo certainly hasn't wasted any time in their decades-long career. John is one of the bestselling artists of all time, with more than 300 million records sold worldwide across an impressive 31 albums — including seven consecutive No. 1 albums in the U.S. Today, in his mid-70s, the Rocket Man is still going strong. He plans to stop touring in 2023, but has no intentions of slowing down. As he explained to CBS News, “I want to do something different with the rest of my life.”
