Nov. 14 (UPI) -- After five decades as a music icon, Elton John is ready to move on from touring. His retirement from the stage will be celebrated in an hour-long iHeartRadio special iHeartRadioPresents Elton John's Thank You to America: The Final Song, which will be broadcast over 320 stations on Sunday at 1 a.m. EST and 10 p.m.PST.
The special encompasses moments from John's life and career and includes the live broadcast of the last song of his Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour, which ends at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles.
