Songs From the West Coast - including Original Sin.

This week many of Elton's fans worldwide want to give him a special birthday present: they are downloading Original Sin in the hope that it will get into the charts. They feel that Original Sin did not achieve the success it deserved when it was first released, and so they are trying to make it a hit for Elton's birthday!

If you would like to join in and download this beautiful ballad visit iTunes or any other chart eligible online retailer this week and search for Elton John Songs From the West Coast. Thank you to everyone who takes part, and especially to Miquel from Spain whose idea this was.
