00:00I always believed that if you have got enough ambition, you can make it anywhere.
00:15Ladies and gentlemen, Elton John.
00:20When I was very young, my life was all consumed by music.
00:23I just wanted to become a songwriter.
00:26The album went soaring up into the charts.
00:29Did you know that you'd nailed it?
00:31Yeah.
00:32We had hit after hit after hit after hit.
00:39The 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.
00:48No solo artist has ever put on a live stadium show.
00:51I knew it couldn't get any bigger.
00:59At that time, there was an emptiness within me.
01:05My soul had gone dark, I'd gone dark, and I wasn't enjoyed to be around.
01:13I didn't have anything apart from my success and my drugs.
01:17I took a bunch of tablets.
01:18I thought I was going to drown.
01:22I felt there must be something more to my life than this.
01:28I was still very naive.
01:29I didn't know I was gay.
01:32If people were gay, they were in the closet.
01:37I was desperately wanting happiness.
01:38I'd gone completely the wrong way about it.
01:42It made me realize family was more important than anything.
01:49I've come to the point in my life where I have to do what is honest.
