Elton's DIAMONDS (hits package released in 2017) continues to sell and chart extremely well in the UK and Australia:
For May 14, 2021 DIAMONDS jumped to #8 on the UK Top 100 Albums Chart. It was at #13 last week on the Australian Top 50 Albums Chart.
The new #8 chart position for DIAMONDS in the UK is only 3 spots away from its peak position of #5 - almost 4 years after release!
It just won't go away.

Elton and Years & Years (British electronic group) have entered the UK charts (May, 2021) with the song "It's a Sin."
The original version of the song was done by The Pet Shop Boys from their 1987 album called ACTUALLY. They co-produce the new version.
The new version by Elton and Years & Years is #57 on the UK Top 100 Singles Chart and #2 on the UK Top 100 Official Singles Downloads Chart and #1 (!) on the Official Big Top 40 Chart in the UK. Elton and Years & Years had just performed the song last week at the 2021 BRIT Awards.
All proceeds from the single go to the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
Well done.

Oddly, one-half year after release the Elton DEEPS CUTS 4-LP vinyl release from THE JEWEL BOX jumped from nowhere on the charts to #15 on the Top 40 UK Official Vinyl Albums Chart this week.
DIAMONDS is at #11 on the UK Top 100 Albums Chart.
"It's a Sin" is at #37 on the UK Top 100 Official Singles Download Chart.

REGIMENTAL SGT ZIPPO is on the charts! With the release of hundreds of special RECORD STORE DAY vinyl albums on June 12 (plus all the other recent vinyl releases of old & new albums), REGIMENTAL SGT ZIPPO made its appearance at #12 on the Official Vinyl Albums Chart Top 100 in the UK today.
DIAMONDS slipped 4 places to #14 on the UK Top 100 Albums Chart and is steady at #19 on Australia's ARIA Top 50 Albums Chart.
I can't imagine that EJ or BT ever imagined that people would have lined up to buy "A Dandelion Dies in the Wind" and "Tartan Coloured Lady" and those other early songwriting efforts - especially 53 years after what was to be their debut release.

Elton has had only a couple of official #1 singles on the UK charts in his career and "Cold Heart" is one spot away.
A 2nd single from THE LOCKDOWN SESSIONS has just been released; "After All" featuring Elton & Charlie Puth.
