Captain Fantastic is a concept album that gives an autobiographical glimpse at the struggles John lyricist Bernie Taupin had in the early years of their musical careers in London. The lyrics and accompanying photo booklet are infused with a specific sense of place and time that is otherwise rare in John's music. "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" was the hit single from this album and captured an early turning point in John's life.

Elton John's ninth studio album debuted at number 1 on the U.S. Pop Albums chart, the first ever album to do so, and stayed there for seven weeks. It has gone on to be certified as triple platinum. On the UK Albums Chart, it peaked at No: 2. In 2003, the album was ranked No: 158 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.
