In his first and only official autobiography, music icon Elton John reveals the truth about his extraordinary life, from his roller-coaster lifestyle as shown in the film Rocketman, to becoming a living legend.  

In the 1980s, Elton John saw friend after friend, loved one after loved one, perish needlessly from AIDS. In the midst of the plague, he befriended Ryan White, a young Indiana boy ostracized by his town and his school because of the HIV infection he had contracted from a blood transfusion. Ryan's inspiring life and devastating death led Elton to two realizations: His own life was a mess. And he had to do something to help stop the AIDS crisis. Since then, Elton has dedicated himself to overcoming the plague.

Er ist Musikgenie, Paradiesvogel und einer der erfolgreichsten Künstler aller Zeiten. "Your Song", "Tiny Dancer" und "Candle in the Wind" sind nur einige von unzähligen Hits seiner beispiellosen Karriere. Erstmals erzählt Pop-Legende Elton John jetzt die Geschichte seines wechselhaften Lebens. Von seinen Anfängen als Musikstudent und seinem Coming-out, vom Höhepunkt seiner Karriere in den 70ern, von seiner Freundschaft zu John Lennon und Prinzessin Diana, von seiner jahrelangen Drogensucht und vom lang ersehnten persönlichen Glück.
