When he announced that he was retiring from music, Elton John's farewell tour became one of the hottest tickets worldwide. The three-year Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour will see him play his most loved songs night after night, all over the globe. Each stop of the tour is being treated to a handpicked set list that covers Sir Elton’s greatest hits, from the big stadium rockers to those torch songs that will definitely have you singing along at the top of your lungs. Elton John released his first album in 1969, so the farewell tour coincides with his 50 years as a recording musician (although he toiled for most of the '60s in backing bands and as a songwriter). He established himself as a major artist in the '70s (and an outrageous dresser), releasing classic albums and chart-topping singles, and he continued to be relevant through the '80s and beyond. If you're a fan of John's music from any era, The Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour is a spectacle that you absolutely cannot miss, as Elton John's farewell tour setlist attests. How does one put together the perfect set list for a final tour? Is it possible to make everyone happy without playing your entire discography? Even though you can’t please everyone Elton John sure as hell tried with his set list for the Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour. Over the course of two hours, the singer and piano virtuoso will remind audiences why he was put on this planet. Elton John resumed his Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour last night in New Orleans after a nearly two-year hiatus. You can see photos from the concert, as well as the show's set list, below. The event marked John's first full-scale concert for a live audience since March 7, 2020. At the time, John was in Australia and the Yellow Brick Road Tour had been running since September 2018, but the legendary artist's final trek around the world was postponed due to the pandemic. He was also forced to postpone shows this past fall after suffering a hip injury that required surgery. Last night's set list included many of John's classic hits, including "Bennie and the Jets" (which opened the show), "Tiny Dancer" and "Rocket Man," but it also featured John's most recent No. 1, "Cold Heart," from his 2021 album The Lockdown Sessions. John will continue to tour North America until April — including two dates at New York City's Madison Square Garden — before heading to the U.K. and Europe for a string of shows.
