Sir Elton John, who recently experienced partial vision loss, has earned a reputation as one of the brightest stars in the entertainment industry over his five-decade career. And he remains as fiery as ever – in every sense of the word! Even at 77, the star still tends to have dramatic outbursts from time to time.
His strong character came through during the making of his unexpected new album Who Believes In Angels?, created with rocker Brandi Carlile, producer Andrew Watt, and longtime collaborator Bernie Taupin. While recording at the legendary Sunset Sound studio in Los Angeles, Elton lost his temper, threw down his headphones, and called the session “a fucking nightmare.” It was undoubtedly a tough challenge, even for someone of his caliber.
However, in the end, the story had a positive outcome, and everyone who worked with Elton understood and accepted his outbursts.
Recently, Elton John shared the phrase he wants inscribed on his gravestone—and it has nothing to do with his musical legacy.
