The first and only autobiography of Rocket Man Elton John belongs to one of the most successful artists of all time. "Your Song," "Tiny Dancer," and "Candle in the Wind" are just a few of the countless hits from his unparalleled career. For the first time, he tells the story of his extraordinary life and reflects on seven decades filled with highs and lows. He reveals the truth about his childhood in the London suburb of Pinner and his difficult relationship with his parents. Reginald Dwight, who would later become world-famous as Elton John, was a shy boy who secretly dreamed of becoming a pop star. At the age of 23, he made his first appearance in the USA, captivating audiences in bright yellow overalls, a star-studded T-shirt, and winged boots. Elton John had arrived – and the music world would never be the same again. His autobiography "Me" is full of drama: from the rejection of Elton's first songs with his songwriting partner Bernie Taupin to his overwhelming success as a global superstar; from friendships with John Lennon, Freddie Mercury, and George Michael to disco dancing with the Queen; from suicide attempts to his drug addiction that held him captive for over a decade. Elton also writes extensively about his recovery and the establishment of his AIDS foundation. He shares how he found true love in David Furnish, vacationed with Gianni Versace, and sang at the funeral of his friend Princess Diana. And he describes how he suddenly felt the desire to become a father, which completely changed his life once again. Humorous, entertaining, and deeply moving – Elton John's autobiography "Me" takes us on an intimate journey with a living legend.
