John with an EGOT (5)

I believe the answer is:

elton

(Other definitions for elton that I've seen before include "..... Jonn (musician)" , "Sir - - John, singer songwriter" , "Ben --; -- John" , ". . . . . John (musician)" , "- John, British singer" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and The Wall Street Journal.
