Right before the beginning of December, Elton John shared a playful TikTok video from the comfort of his Windsor home.
The video was set to his own 1974 festive hit Step Into Christmas and captured the British singer in his kitchen.
The song would start blaring the moment he opened a kitchen cupboard or a drawer. And the video closed with the text, “It must be that time of year again.”

The video racked up nearly 8 million views so far, with many appreciating the sight of the music icon “chilling in his Gucci tracksuit.”
“Sir Elton your [sic] so adorable,” one commented, while another wrote, “I love that your kitchen has so much character!!”
But others tsk-tsked at the condition of his oven door.

“His oven is filthy,” one claimed, while another wrote, “Nice to see even Elton’s oven needs cleaning before Christmas, my oven glass needs an oven doctor too,” one said.
After viewers began diagnosing how clean his oven was, the Rocketman singer shared a cheeky video in response.

“Hello people, it’s Elton John here,” he began before talking about the video he filmed in his kitchen.
“I did some videos in this kitchen about how crazy Step Into Christmas was driving me, and it got an incredible response, which I was quite startled about,” he said.
The singer then spoke about people commenting on “how dirty [his] oven was.”

“I can assure you that I don’t have anything dirty in this house, I’ve never had anything dirty,” he continued. “I’m not a dirty person, so to prove that I don’t have anything dirty, I’m going to do something to show you.”
The singer-songwriter then posted a follow-up video, in which he captured himself scrubbing his oven door until it was squeaky clean. The evergreen hit Step Into Christmas played on in the background while the oven door was open.
“I cant believe you guys bullied THE Elton John into cleaning his already clean oven,” read one comment online

Elton spoke about the song Step Into Christmas in a 2023 interview and said he “wanted to have fun” during the making the track in the 1970s.
“We knew we wanted to have fun and get everything Christmas-y rolled into it…,” Elton John reportedly said in a 2023 interview. “Recording it and making the video was just so much fun. I just remember having a ball doing it.”
Apart from the holiday favorite Step Into Christmas, Elton has also released a festival song with Ed Sheeran

Years after the holiday favorite was released, the singer teamed up with fellow British singer Ed Sheeran and released another festive song titled Merry Christmas in 2021.
The Thinking Out Loud singer said he talks to Elton “almost every single day” and once called him with a special proposition on Christmas Day.
“He rung me on Christmas Day and he said, ‘Step Into Christmas is No. 6 in the charts, and I’m 74, and I’m still having f***ing chart hits, this is great! I want to do another Christmas song, will you do it with me?’” Ed said on the Dutch radio station NPO Radio 2 in 2021.
Ed said he was initially skeptical about making a Christmas song but eventually agreed on one condition.
“I said to Elton, I was like, ‘I don’t really want to do a Christmas song unless we’re going in. Unless it’s like sleigh bells, ding-dong— yeah, it needs to be a proper Christmas song,’” he recalled.
“I wrote a chorus,” he added, “and then I went to go and stay with him, and we wrote three, and one of them was this one called ‘Merry Christmas.’”
