I didn't really know what I was until I came to America and I had sex [for the first time] in San Francisco in 1970. It was with someone of my own sex.
Elton John

My old man is drunker than a barrel full of monkeys, but my old lady she don't care.
Elton John

I do like my rock stars to be a little larger than life. I don't mind the earnest ones at all, but I do like a bit of individuality.
Elton John
Image
What a scandal, if I die. Yeah, I'm gonna kill myself, get a little headline news.
Elton John

When stars collide, like you and I, no shadow blocks the sun - The One

I like Stevie Wonder. I usually wind up playing the same old tapes in the car.
Elton John

I had to learn how to function as a human being. And I really enjoyed that process.

Nothing should be an issue when it comes to sexuality in the first place. Music is the one artform where people feel comfortable coming out.
