NEW YORK, NY (January 20, 2022) – Wednesday night marked the highly anticipated return of Elton John’s global Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour. Fittingly resuming in one of America’s most famed music metropolises, New Orleans, Elton played to a roaring sold-out crowd.
The show kicked off with his iconic hit, “Bennie and the Jets” and followed by back-to-back classics such as “Tiny Dancer,” “Rocket Man,” “I’m Still Standing,” “Crocodile Rock” and more. Additionally, Elton performed his latest chart-topping hit “Cold Heart (PNAU REMIX)” from his 2021 studio album The Lockdown Sessions, which is currently peaking at #7 on Billboard’s Hot 100, #1 on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart, as well as charting as the #1 single in the UK upon release.
