Me : Elton John Official Autobiography
Elton John - Book - by Elton John
(2020)
In
his first and only official autobiography, music icon Elton John
reveals the truth about his extraordinary life. Me is the joyously
funny, honest and moving story of the most enduringly successful
singer/songwriter of all time.
Christened
Reginald Dwight, he was a shy boy with Buddy Holly glasses who grew up
in the London suburb of Pinner and dreamed of becoming a pop star. By
the age of twenty-three, he was performing his first gig in America,
facing an astonished audience in his bright yellow dungarees, a
star-spangled T-shirt and boots with wings. Elton John had arrived and
the music world would never be the same again.
His
life has been full of drama, from the early rejection of his work with
songwriting partner Bernie Taupin to spinning out of control as a
chart-topping superstar; from half-heartedly trying to drown himself in
his LA swimming pool to disco-dancing with the Queen; from friendships
with John Lennon, Freddie Mercury and George Michael to setting up his
AIDS Foundation. All the while, Elton was hiding a drug addiction that
would grip him for over a decade. In Me Elton also writes powerfully
about getting clean and changing his life, about finding love with David
Furnish and becoming a father.
