Elton John opens up about studio meltdown amidst album recording

Elton John recently opened up about a tumultuous recording session for his upcoming album 'Who Believes In Angels?' during which he experienced a significant emotional meltdown. In a documentary clip, he was seen throwing his headphones and expressing frustration, later revealing he was in a 'very dark place of doubt' due to exhaustion and health issues. Speaking to BBC Radio 2, he admitted to feeling more insecurity with this record than he ever had before, emphasizing the pressure to create something special. John credited his collaborators, including Brandi Carlile and Bernie Taupin, for helping him navigate through this challenging period, stating that without their support, the album would not have come to fruition. The album is set for release on April 4, and despite his recent farewell tour, John confirmed he does not miss performing live, citing fear rather than desire. He plans to continue making music but has officially stepped away from live performances.
