His songs include "Candle in the Wind" and "Your Song," while his song "Candle in the Wind 1997" (a tribute to Princess Diana) is the best selling single of all time, having sold over 37 million copies.
In film, John is best known for his work on the soundtrack of The Lion King. Two songs from the movie's soundtrack ("Circle of Life" and "Can You Feel the Love Tonight") became big hits, and "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" won both an Oscar and a Grammy.
On The Simpsons, John appeared as himself in the episode "I'm with Cupid." He sang a slightly modified version of "Your Song" as a Valentine's Day gift from Apu to Manjula.
