No, but it was good to hear his thoughts.

I agree, he leaves no doubt that Elvis was a great influence for him and he's very sincere and empathic about it all.

I searched a bit, and it's from July 9, 2007: 'Enough Rope with Andrew Denton' (ABC TV, Australian TV show, Episode 9).

Here is the full interview, the Elvis part starts around minute 25 (he talks a bit more about him than in the excerpt above):

Very interesting, but Elton is not doing bad at being very over weight himself.

Nearly 50 years later, and people are still talking trash about Elvis. I say, take a walk in his shoes.

But Elton was able to go to rehab and has been sober for more than three decades, that is why he is still alive.

Also, Elton has been overweight in old age, not forty.
