A black slide kicks it off with: > It must be that time of year again…
The post's caption reads: > If you can't escape it, you might as well Step Into Christmas! Who's ready? Fans loved it, with one commenting: > 😂😂😂 Others buzzed about his announced live gig, like a Brazilian fan thrilled for Rock in Rio, and quips such as: > Where do I get these cabinets.. I need Elton singing everytime I open them!
Co-written with Bernie Taupin and released in November 1973, 'Step Into Christmas' endures as a holiday staple, dominating airwaves each December just like other timeless festive tunes.
