Elton John Overcome with Emotion During Recording

Elton John, who recently turned 78, experienced an emotional breakdown while recording his latest album 'Who Believes In Angels?' with Brandi Carlile. The song, 'When This Old World Is Done With Me,' written by Bernie Taupin, led John to reflect on his mortality, especially considering his recent health struggles, including vision loss. This poignant moment, where he cried for 45 minutes, is captured in his documentary 'Elton John: Never Too Late.' Carlile described the session as deeply human and revealing, highlighting John's vulnerability. The album, set for release on April 4, 2025, also features the Oscar-nominated song 'Never Too Late.' Meanwhile, John and Carlile's concert at the London Palladium will be broadcast as a special on ITV, showcasing their musical journey and collaboration.
