Description

Elton John’s 1975 #1 hit is sometimes mistaken as a patriotic, flag-waving number by American audiences. John and Taupin apparently wrote the tune as an homage to tennis star Billie Jean King and her ‘Philadephlia Freedoms’ tennis team. Regardless of its roots this Rock and Pop icon has stood the test of time as one of the genre’s best anthems.
