For more than a half-century, pop vocalist Sir Elton John has collaborated with songwriting partner Bernie Taupin on a succession of hit songs that make the team a natural for the coveted Gershwin prize. A two-hour concert special, featuring highlights from an invite-only ceremony in Washington D.C. in March, is hosted by Billy Porter, who performs (what else) “The Bitch Is Back,” with a stellar lineup including 2023 Gershwin Prize recipient Joni Mitchell (performing “I’m Still Standing” with Brandi Carlile and Annie Lennox) and 2020 honoree Garth Brooks delivering “Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word” and “Daniel.” The eclectic talent roster includes Metallica, Maren Morris, Charlie Puth and Jacob Lusk, with Sir Elton taking the stage with signature hits like “Saturday Night’s Alright for Fighting:” and “Your Song” joined by Taupin.
