Elton John is allegedly planning to apologise to Brian McFadden with regard to those comments he made about the former Westlife star’s dire song Irish Son. "Brian is probably a nice man, but I nearly died when I listened to Irish Son," Elton said at the time. "I absolutely hated it. It's the worst lyric on a record I've ever heard. I had to take it off in case I committed suicide. It's just horrible. No, no, no."
Elton now appears to regret the outburst and the criticism, saying "I am going to take him out to dinner to apologise. I just can't keep my mouth shut."
