Всичките ти успехи и всичките ти провали, всичките ти безобразия и всичките ти обикновени глупости.

Тази книга понякога ще ви натъжи, понякога ще ви стресне. Аз обаче със сигурност ще ви разсмее и смехът ще е най-вече за сметка на сър Елтън Джон."Аз имам много недостатъци, но че съм музикант, който се взема прекалено насериозно - в това никога не бихте ... |
