Elton John Fans Shower Him With Well Wishes After He Breaks Down in Tears for Cutting Concert Short Due to Pneumonia

'Total Professional'

Fans shared videos from the crowd showing how hard John was working to perform in spite of his illness. That included the moment he ended the concert, causing many to praise his professionalism and dedication to fans.

'The Show Must Go On'

In many ways, John's illness gave new meaning to the old saying "the show must go on." Fans assured him that they had gotten their money's worth, but he must take care of himself so that the next audience could get the same. They urged him to consider his long-term health.

'Loved Every Minute'

Some fans were not even disappointed in the length of the concert, which they said lasted nearly two hours as it was. They tweeted that the show was already every they were hoping for.

Well-Wishes

Of course, many fans tweeted directly at John, saying they were hoping and praying for him to feel better soon. The singer got plenty of well-wishes to sustain him this weekend.

Chorus

While John may have left the stadium, the music did not end all at once. A few videos revealed the audience carrying on the show for him, singing his songs in an overwhelming chorus.

'Should Have Been Recovering'

Some fans even lightly admonished John for performing at all this weekend, saying he should have been recovering instead. They were still grateful that he showed up, however, and his dedication to them made a big impact on their opinions of him.

'Keep Going'

Finally, fans gave John encouragement to carry on with his tour in case he needed it. They urged him to rally from his illness and get to the next show, as they felt others needed to see the spectacle they had witnessed.

Elton John's Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour continues this week, with no shows canceled at the time of this writing. He remains in Australia throughout February and into next month, then returns to North America at the end of March. Ticket info is available on John's website.
