The result is Me - the joyously funny, honest, and moving story of the most enduringly successful singer\/songwriter of all time.   Read by actor and star of Rocketman, Taron Egerton, with an introduction and epilogue read by Elton John.   Christened Reginald Dwight, he was a shy boy with Buddy Holly glasses who grew up in the London suburb of Pinner and dreamed of becoming a pop star.   By the age of twenty-three, he was performing his first gig in America, facing an astonished audience in his bright yellow dungarees, a star-spangled T-shirt, and boots with wings. Elton John had arrived, and the music world would never be the same again.   His life has been full of drama, from the early rejection of his work with songwriting partner Bernie Taupin to spinning out of control as a chart-topping superstar; from half-heartedly trying to drown himself in his LA swimming pool to disco-dancing with the Queen; from friendships with John Lennon, Freddie Mercury, and George Michael to setting up his AIDS Foundation. All the while, Elton was hiding a drug addiction that would grip him for over a decade.   In Me, Elton also writes powerfully about getting clean and changing his life, about finding love with David Furnish and becoming a father.   In a voice that is warm, humble, and open, this is Elton on his music and his relationships, his passions, and his mistakes.   This is a story that will stay with you, by a living legend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 133 x 126 x 25 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781529010305\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Unabridged ed\\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elton John","offers":[{"title":"CD-Audio","offer_id":44099449487610,"sku":"9781529010305","price":15.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/eef6dae98888c8e27876d2803cd30465.jpg?v=1624585434","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/me-elton-john-official-autobiography-1","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
