Elton John: Fitness+ Spotlight

As theatrical as Elton John’s music can be, there’s always a human quality to it, too: songs that make you feel as dazzling and triumphant as they sound. It’s a quality all the more appealing given how approachable Elton has made himself as a person. “What I admire most about Elton is that he’s used everything he’s been through to help empower himself and others,” Fitness+ Cycling trainer Tyrell Désean tells Apple Music. “Whether that’s through the Elton John AIDS Foundation, building toward the goal of a world free from AIDS for everyone or with any of his other humanitarian efforts, he just keeps on inspiring.” In that spirit, consider this playlist of Elton’s most upbeat tracks, curated by Tyrell and Apple Music’s editors, an accompaniment to workouts of both the body and the soul. Now throw on your electric boots and mohair suits and get after it.
