Washington:
Singer-songwriter and pianist Elton John talked about his short-tempered nature and how his husband David Furnish is always there for him through challenging times, reports People.
“David can tell you that I have a very short fuse, and the worst thing about my temper is that David is very rational about things, and he’ll explain,” John said, “and I’ll talk more about it.” I will go even more crazy.”
Meanwhile, Furnish, who met John in 1993, said that when John first met her he was “very, very quiet in terms of accepting love”.
“Nobody ever asked them to do personal things, like hang out together, fun things like that,” Furnish said. Although John has calmed down over the years, he still gets agitated at times.
“If I’m tired, if I’m exhausted, if I’m overwhelmed, I’ll freak out,” the singer said. “I don’t like that nature, but usually it’s all over and done with within five or 10 minutes.”
He said that if he is not able to write a song in an hour or two, he becomes more impatient while writing the song. “I know people think, ‘Oh my God, he doesn’t try that hard,'” the “I’m Still Standing” artist said. “But it’s really intuitive. If I find a song and I look at it, the song comes straight out.”
In 2021, John shared that he was working on his temper, but that it was still inside him and “could burst at any moment.”
During an interview she said, “I’ve been trying to work on this for a long time and I’ve got an amazing husband who knows how to get me out of that thing.” “I think it’s an artistic thing – artists can be so self-destructive sometimes for no reason. I can have a day when everything is going great my whole life, and I “I wake up and I feel like the world is against me. Why, I don’t know.”
As People reports, upon seeking therapy he realized it was all due to his strained relationship with his parents and he knew he didn’t want to be that kind of father.
He recalled, “Self-hatred, having no self-esteem, it all comes from when I was a kid.”
“I was always afraid of my parents, and I didn’t want my kids to be afraid of me,” John said of his sons Elijah, 11, and Zachary, 13. “They will feel loved and loved every moment.” They will not be beaten that day and will not have to face those scars for the rest of their lives. I thought I was too late to have kids, but actually they came into my life at the right time, and it’s taught me a lot. ,” according to People.
