Talking to ... Elton John

Q Do you miss doing the ordinary things in life?

I like plodding round the kitchen doing the things everybody else does. I love going to the supermarket to do the shopping. I come back with far more stuff than I need. When I am on holiday in St. Tropez, I love to get up at six in the morning to get the fresh bread. So people often see me wheeling my trolley round and the supermarkets in the town.

Q Do you mind being recognised?

I’ve tried going out in disguise, but in the end most people recognize me. Ninety-nine per cent are very pleasant, very polite. But it's frustrating if you get out of bed on the wrong side - and you do some days -  and someone asks you for an autograph and they haven’t got a pen or a piece of paper. But I enjoy my popularity; I don’t see the point in being a recluse.

Q You once said that you’re a bit of a loner.

Yeah, I always have been. By that I don’t mean that I’m lonely. It’s just that I like to be my own boss all the time. Don’t confuse that with being lonely because I’m not. I have lots of great friends around me. Being successful has given me the confidence to do things I wouldn’t have had the courage to do otherwise. But I still retain that shyness when I first meet people. I'm never going to get rid of that.

Q You like your food, don’t you?

I’m one of those people who only has to look at a doughnut and I immediately put on 2 pounds without even eating it. I’ve always had a problem with my weight. It doesn’t bother me too much, although I get depressed when I’m very overvveight. I dieted once and I became so obsessed that I nearly made myself ill. But I’m happy with the way I am at the moment. If you exercise at least three or four times a week and play tennis, then it’s no problem, but you have to keep at it. (…)

Q Do you think you will still be touring and making records in another ten years’ time?

I can’t keep touring and making records for the rest of my life — I’ve got to try something different now and then. One thing I am interested in doing is writing a musical.

Q So do you think we will see you on stage in your own musical one day?

I doubt it. I’m not interested in going into a theatre and performing every night. You may find that strange but if you’re on tour, you’re changing cities. I played at the Hammersmith Odeon once for 14 nights and by the end of it I was going crazy. It was like going to the office. People who actually appear in plays and musicals for two or three years have my greatest sympathy and admiration. I never consider what I do as work.
