A group of dedicated fans have decided to try to get “Original Sin” to the top of the charts.

Frequently asked for by fans in concert, the 2001 classic is thought of as one of his best works although it only climbed to the top 40 in England. When Elton put out "Songs From The West Coast", he knew it was a great album, and he was so happy about it. But he felt disappointed about the lack of promotion and he saddly said: "It's the last record that I ever make. I'm fed up with it".

In order to coordinate this activity, the group of fans has launched a facebook event that sets a deadline for everyone interested to download the song "Original Sin."

They ask to invite other friends to join this event and also encourage everyone to spread the word. They need as many people as possible and every single person counts. The download date will be during the week of Elton's birthday, from March 22 to 26, 2010.
