Get ready to 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒑 𝑰𝒏𝒕𝒐 𝑪𝒉𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒎𝒂𝒔! 🎄Celebrating 50 years this month, @EltonJohn’s Christmas hit was his first holiday song, written with longtime friend and collaborator Bernie Taupin as a musical Christmas card to their fans after a great year following the release of ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.’ “Let’s do a Christmas record we thought!” Elton said in an interview around the time of the song’s release with Melody Maker. “In those days we made records all the time. Bernie absolutely loves Christmas songs, so he was all for it.” This led to the creation of the holiday classic and the duo’s first song written as a stand-alone single! #EltonJohn #StepIntoChristmas #HolidaySongs #ChristmasSong #ChristmasMusic #Christmas #Holiday #HappyHolidays #BernieTaupin
