*: Intro

Notes:
This concert was Elton's second-to-last gig on the Farewell Yellow Brick Road-tour. ...and therefore also his (perhaps) second-to-last concert ever. The show was originally scheduled for 18 september 2020. Due to both the Covid 19 pandemic and Elton's health issues the show was postponed not only once, but three times.

My seat in section A103 meant that the conditions for recording the concert were far from perfect and the sound is somewhat reverberated. Tele2 Arena is large arena and my seat was on the almost directly opposite short side from the stage.
