Bernie Taupin, the iconic lyricist who has stood by Elton John for over five decades, has released his autobiography titled “Scattershot: Life, Music, Elton & Me.” The book delves into their remarkable partnership that has shaped music history.

In a candid revelation, Taupin recalls a pivotal moment in the late 1960s when Elton, then known as Reg Dwight, made a pass at him. This incident, marked by its innocence and lack of aggression, occurred during the early days of their friendship. Taupin’s memoir sheds light on this episode, explaining that their differences, both personally and sexually, were key to their enduring partnership. Taupin speculates that had he reciprocated Elton’s advance, their friendship and collaboration might have met a different fate.

The memoir offers insights into the complexity of their relationship, highlighting how their contrasting personalities played a vital role in their success. Taupin’s portrayal of Elton as an “imaginary brother” paints a picture of the deep bond that kept them together through the highs and lows of life.

Furthermore, Taupin’s memoir provides a glimpse into the inspiration behind their classic lyrics and shares anecdotes about various celebrities. Notably, the book reveals Taupin’s less-than-impressed encounter with artist Andy Warhol, showcasing the multifaceted nature of his experiences in the world of entertainment.

“Scattershot: Life, Music, Elton & Me” is now available, offering a compelling look into the enduring partnership between two iconic figures in music history.
