The John Lewis Christmas ad tells the story of Elton John, in reverse. But it's no vanity project; it's only lovely.

Parents and grandparents everywhere will have a difficult time on their hands after seeing this year's John Lewis Christmas ad. Instead of listing all the nice things you can buy in the store, they tell Elton John's life story from where he is now to when it all began. The song is 'Your Song', the key feature, apart from his snazzy array of glasses, is the piano; the tagline is *sniff* 'Some gifts are more than just a gift.
