A Single Man, released in 1978, is the twelfth studio album release for Elton John. It is the first album where Gary Osborne replaced Bernie Taupin as lyricist. It is also the only Elton John album to not have any tracks co-written by Bernie Taupin on the original cut. A Single Man is the first of John's albums to not include lyricist Bernie Taupin, and the first since his debut Empty Sky without producer Gus Dudgeon.

Producer – Clive Franks, Elton John. A Single Man ‎(LP, Album). The Rocket Record Company.

A Single Man. Elton’s 12th studio album is certified gold and platinum by the RIAA and peaked at on the UK Albums Chart and on the Billboard 200 chart. It contains the single Song For Guy, which reached the position on the UK Singles Chart. Music & Lyrics by ELTON JOHN & GARY OSBORNE Produced by ELTON JOHN & CLIVE FRANKS Orchestral Arrangements by PAUL BUCKMASTER Recorded at The Mill, Cookham, UK.

After a dozen albums with lyrical collaborator Bernie Taupin, A Single Man (1978) represents Elton John's first full-length release away from their decade-long partnership. John's initial intent was to complete work on a Taupin-era remnant that had been on the back burner, titled Ego. However, he found himself with some interesting melodies and eventually teamed up with former Vigrass & Osborne member Gary Osborne. Also contributing to this album's different approach is producer Gus Dudgeon - who had worked with John as far back as his debut long-player, Empty Sky (1969).

A Single Man é o décimo segundo álbum de estúdio do cantor e compositor britânico Elton John, lançado em 1978. o primeiro álbum criado sem o seu antigo colaborador Bernie Taupin. Como Gary Osborne era um desconhecido na época, muitas pessoas interpretaram mal o título do álbum afirmando que Elton escreveu o álbum inteiro sozinho. O hit "Song for Guy" foi um tributo a Guy Burchett, um jovem funcionário da gravadora Rocket Records que foi morto em um acidente de motocicleta

For his first album in two years, Elton John’s wiped the slate clean and exchanged longtime collaborator Bernie Taupin for War of the Worlds lyricist Gary Osborne. Instead of recording with a set band and producer Gus Dudgeon, John’s coproduced himself and used studio musicians to turn out his sparest LP since Honky Chateau. But this move toward simplicity is a step into emptiness, since A Single Man is nothing more than a collection of trivial hooks performed about as perfunctorily as possible.
