Softtail65 posts music trivia about Elton John's 'Island Girl'

A Bluesky user shares information about "Island Girl," written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin, released in 1975 from the album Rock of the Westies. The song hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on November 1, 1975, spent 3 weeks at the top, and sold one million copies. The post asks followers to name another song mentioning the word "Tell."

“the lyrics could be considered offensive, it spent 3 weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 & sold one million copies upon its release. Elton hasn't performed it since 1990 & Bernie Taupin has stated that the song is "totally inappropriate"”
