In his only autobiography, Sir Elton John first talks about his extraordinary life and a musical career, which has forever changed the face of the world pop industry. Unlike the film "Rocketman", the artist’s life in the book is shown without bills and censorship restrictions. Elton John describes all the temptations that appeared in the way of turning a shy teenager with glasses into a global star.
His life has always resembled American slides: from the first failures to conquer the charts, from an indecisive attempt to drown in his pool to getting the title of a knight and taking a royal family, from friendship with John Lennon, Freddy Mercury and George Michael and many years of drug addiction - Before creating the AIDS fund and the acquisition of the family.
Elton John writes as honestly and sincerely about his music, relationships, passions and mistakes, showing the reader a human image of a "living legend" of British music.
"This book is something incredible. The film "Rocketman" told us the story of Elton John, but only barely touched what was written in this book " - New York Times
"Elton John proved that he is an exciting and subtly feeling writer. Like his songs, various bizarre characters, perverted humor, self -irony and triumph " - Time overwhelm the book
"It seems to have been written about Elton John for a long time and understandable: Troubles and Bonvivan, the author of dozens without exaggeration of great songs, surviving a bunch of troubles, but still defeated oblivion and even death. But one thing is someone else"s text, another is a first -person story. The most interesting in the book is not even the moments of the triumph, but the periods of struggle with himself: for example, when Elton John fought with internal demons at the turn of the eighties and nineteous and lost friends. Honest autobiography, without deliberate dramaturgy and vignetok " - Nikolai Ovchinnikov, editor of the section" Music ", posture Daily
