Sir Elton John stopped by a London train station on Thursday to surprise commuters with an impromptu concert. The 68-year-old singer-songwriter sat down at a piano in the middle of St Pancras and began a surprise performance, much to the delight of everyone passing through.
A huge crowd gathered to watch John play, with many posting pictures and videos of the appearance on Twitter.
