00:15Ladies and gentlemen, Elton John!

00:17Crowd chants.

00:20When I was very young, my life was all consumed by music.

00:23I just wanted to become a songwriter.

00:25The album went soaring up into the charts.

00:29Did you know that you'd nailed it?

00:31Yeah.

00:32Crowd chants.

00:36We had hit after hit after hit after hit.

00:40The acclaim grew and the audiences grew.

00:42You're the most famous pop star in the world.

00:45Elton John is set to play at Dodger Stadium.

01:35Crowd chants.

01:37I was desperately wanting happiness.

01:39I'd gone completely the wrong way about it.

01:41Crowd chants.

01:43It made me realize family was more important than anything.

01:46Crowd chants.

01:49I've got to the point in my life where I have to do what is honest.
