The songwriting credits on "Passengers" are:- Elton John / Bernie Taupin / Davey Johnstone / Phineas McHize but who you may well ask is Phineas McHize?

Probably just someone in the studio at the time of the recording or just another fake name like "Winston O'Boogie" or "Tripe / Onions"?

Phineas MkHize (correct spelling) wrote and recorded a song called "Isonto Lezayoni" in Johannesburg in the early 1960's - just click on the picture below to hear it and understand the reason for the credit..
