Bernie Taupin on His New Book, Elton John, Song Writing + More

[@themusicexpresswithrobertl8816]

Bernie and Elton is why I write and perform music 🎼🎸🎼

[@heatherross928]

I bought the book on Audible. Bernie is a brilliant writer. He paints a wonderful story I love it

[@soccermomland]

Ever since I was 14 and babysat the neighbor kids and they let me play their Goodbye Yellow Brick Road album and I read the liner notes, I have been fascinated by whoever this Bernie Taupin guy was, and what made him write all these amazing lyrics. Well that only took about 40 some years! 😂 Glad to finally find out

[@josebenito15]

Wonderful his book indeed. I'm reading it these days. Very well written and crafted. Great stuff 📖

[@Diagnoc]

I just read Elton John’s autobiography, and can’t wait to read Bernie Taupin’s own for comparison (et en passant, je suis ravi qu’il tienne à la prononciation de son nom de famille à la française).

[@Soulboy63]

Me too

[@tshouse2782]

Scattershot is brilliantly written, I'm convinced he could make my life story sound fascinating

Great interview…the best morning show in NYC ☕️

[@YGardenRose]

Thank you for the songs Bernie. Like your artwork especially the flag art.❤

Gary Brooker and Keith Reid were very similar (Procol Harum).

[@CRYDERSB]

Wow

Jim Kerr needs to know when to keep quite

[@garanceadrosehn9691]

I've never heard that pronunciation of his last name!

[@TheBella2u]

Just got the book on Kindle. The guy who reads it has a posh English accent. He doesn’t speak like Bernie at all. I am trying to get used to it. 😊

[@soccermomland]

I was just talking to my Brit friend about the audiobook narrator's accent. He described it as "Military/Clergy/BBC posh." 😅 I had to go searching for interviews like this to find out how Bernie actually sounds

[@TheBella2u]

@@soccermomland Yea, he's hard to listen to. I've heard too many of Bernie's interviews, and it's just not him at all. I will continue to try, or I'll buy a copy of the book.

Annoying sidekick

Is there anything more silly than wearing a cap indoors to hide your baldness? A comb-over in another guise. 😅
