AceShowbiz - Elton John delivered a special intimate concert on Wednesday night, January 13. During the show at The Wiltern theater in Los Angeles, the legendary singer brought out some surprise guests and paid tribute to David Bowie in addition to performing some of his biggest hits as well as songs from his upcoming album "Wonderful Crazy Night".
Among the guests John invited on the stage that night were Demi Lovato, Shawn Mendes and Fall Out Boy's frontman Patrick Stump. Sitting at his grand piano, the 68-year-old musician teamed up with the former Disney princess for a duet of his 1979 classic "Don't Go Breaking My Heart", and with the Canadian teen for a moving rendition of "Tiny Dancer".
Stump, meanwhile, joined John for a super high-energy performance of his 1973 single "Saturday Night's Alright (for Fighting)", which he and his band previously covered in 2014.
At the two-hour concert that night, John also played an instrumental cover of Bowie's 1969 classic "Space Oddity". "I'd like to dedicate this to the Starman himself," he said before launching into the song, which he performed without its lyrics before transitioning into his own track "Rocket Man".
