The History Of Sir Elton John's EGOT

On Monday Sir Elton John got his EGOT aka winning an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony. Here is an exploration of all the music that he won for in each of the EGOT categories sorted by year.. 

I have to say it is interesting that he did not win his Grammys for many of his classic songs like Rocket Man, I'm still standing, Don’t Go Breaking My Heart (with Kiki Dee), Crocodile Rock, Levon, Someone Saved My Life Tonight, Bennie and the Jets ...
