She did “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart” with Elton John that was a huge hit.

Do you know a kid named Britt? He’s a die hard Acadiana Ram. I think he graduated in 1980. He and I were in the Navy Reserve together. Good dude.

Maybe so. I knew at least one Britt, Brett, and Brent, but I can't remember which was which or their last names. So maybe.

You're a youngster. Class of '76 here, but I had a lot of friends in the class of '78 where I grew up. If you listen to syndicated radio you may've heard of one of them, Delilah Rene Luke.

Although I've always been a big Elton John fan and watched "One Day at a Time" back in the day, I somehow missed that episode.

In Sept. 1974, Kiki opened for Elton John at the LSU Assembly Center and they ended up singing their big hit together as well.

I was 8 years old and yes, I remember this well. Also Seasons in the Sun by Terry Jacks and Kung Fu Fighting right around that time.
