JAKARTA - Elton John did not hesitate to express his admiration for Chappell Rosan. He considered his junior as an artist who has an "old soul" and praised his pure appearance without much 'unnecessary makeup'.
John's admiration arose after he saw Rosan's performance at Coachella and also when the 27-year-old singer was the main performer at the Elton John AIDS Foundation (AJAF) annual party some time ago.
John praised Roan's way of acting on stage. He seemed that the Roan band consisted of only three women.
"There are no bells and whistles, no dancers, only rock bands are really great," said John, quoted from Variety, Thursday, November 27.
He also praised Rosan's skills and way of setting the stage. "He is an old soul. Olivia Dean, Lola Young, is just as happy to see these girls. They are ready for that," he added.
Furthermore, John, who is known as a person who is reluctant to reminisce and prefers to listen to young artists, revealed how he continues to communicate with the singers he loves and supports.

"If you support and love artists, you will continue to communicate," he said.
John explained that his declining vision condition actually helped him stay connected to artists like Roan via video call.
"The problem with my iPad is, I can actually see someone up close. So I often call Chappell," he said.
The Your Song' singer also remembered the moment at the EJAF Oscar party, when Roan appeared in front of about 1,000 excited party guests. That night, Rosan had worn a pink cowboy hat on Elton John's head.
At that moment, John considered himself to be taking on a double role: as a mentor for young artists and also as a true fan.
He even claimed to be one of the first to play the song Rosan, "Pinkfactor Club," at the Rocket Hour show on Apple Radio.
The admiration for Rosan shows that despite reducing touring schedules, Elton John remains relevant and has a sharp musical taste that continues to support authentic new talents.
