Description: ONE OF THE BEST-LOVED POP MUSIC ICONS OF ALL TIME - HIS OWN STORY ELTON JOHN IS ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL SINGER-SONGWRITERS EVER. His music has delighted people around the world for generations - from high energy dance and disco songs to memorable ballads to his soaring and inspiring creations in The Lion King. He has been knighted by the Queen of England - Sir Elton John - but his ordinary fans honor him every day too by listening and relishing his work. It has been said that every minute of every day all year round somebody somewhere in the world is listening to an Elton John song. Sir Elton is quite modest about his success. He has said: "The great thing about rock and roll is that someone like me can be a star." He could have added that to be a star, you also have to be incredibly talented, be adventurous and determined, and persevere in spite of setbacks. IN THIS BEST-SELLER HE TELLS HIS LIFE STORY, the many ups and the many downs, the rejections and the adulation. Famous contemporaries emerge from its pages such as Freddie Mercury John Lennon and George Michael, all of whom died well before their time. He writes about the experience of singing his tribute to Princess Diana at her funeral at Westminster Abbey, a performance that brought tears to the eyes of millions around the world - and of his horror at the way the young Prince William and Prince Harry had to walk through the streets of London behind the coffin of their dead mother. This copy is in very nice condition with clean, crisp and unmarked pages. The hardcover binding is firm and square and we have protected the intact dust-jacket with a removable Brodart plastic cover to keep it in pristine shape since its is the sort of book that gets passed around for family and friends to share. There are no signs of prior ownership such as an inscription or a bookplate. It has numerous photographs in color as well as black-and-white and it provides a general index for easy navigation around the narrative.
