Released in 1995, Made in England found Elton John returning to a more classic, reflective style after the big pop productions of the ’80s and early ’90s. With longtime lyricist Bernie Taupin, Elton crafted a mature, polished record that balances soaring ballads with understated pop-rock. The title track is a sharp, autobiographical statement, while “Believe” stands tall as one of his great anthems of the era. Elsewhere, songs like “Belfast” and “Latitude” show his knack for expansive, cinematic storytelling, while “Blessed” became one of his most enduring ballads of the decade. It’s an album that highlights Elton’s craftsmanship as both a songwriter and performer in the mid-’90s.
