Elton John and his longtime songwriting partner Bernie Taupin are Oscar winners together for a song they created for the biopic "Rocketman."
The pair wrote "I'm Gonna Love Me Again" for the musical biopic that charted John's rise to superstar status, warts and all.
The pair won a Golden Globe earlier this year, and noted that they had never won a Grammy Award together.
John paired with Tim Rice to win an Academy Award for "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" from the original "Lion King."
John thanked Taupin for being with him throughout his career, even when he was "screwed up."
