Elton John said this about his angry nature

According to People, singer-songwriter and pianist Elton John discussed his short fuse and how his partner David Furnish always supports him throughout his difficult moments.

“David can tell you that my fuse is very short, and the worst thing about my temper is that David is very rational about things, and he’ll explain,” John said. “And I’ll get even madder about it.”

John was “very, very shut down in terms of accepting love” when Furnish first met him in 1993, according to Furnish.
“No one had ever asked him to do personal things like go for a walk together, those kinds of joyful things,” said Furnish. Even though John has calmed down over the years, he still becomes angry sometimes.

“I will flare up if I’m tired, if I’m exhausted, if I’m overwhelmed,” the performer said. “I don’t like having that temperament, but it’s all usually done and dusted within five or 10 minutes.”

He went on to say that if he couldn’t finish creating the song in an hour or so, he became irritated. “I know people think, ‘Oh, God, he doesn’t work that hard,'” the musician and “I’m Still Standing” musician said. However, it’s really easy. When I look at a phrase, the music immediately comes to mind.

John said in 2021 that while he was working on controlling his fury, it still exists inside him and had the potential to “explode at any moment.”

“I’ve been trying to work on that for a long time and I’ve got a wonderful husband who knows how to get me out of that stuff,” he said in a recent interview. “I believe it’s an artistic thing—artists can sometimes be so self-destructive, without any justification. There are days when I wake up feeling like the world is against me, even if everything in my life is going so wonderfully. Why, I’m not sure.

According to People, he realized that his tense relationship with his parents was the reason he was going to therapy and that he didn’t want to be that sort of father.

“The self-loathing, not having any self-esteem, that all comes from when I was a kid,” he said.

John went on to say of his boys Zachary, 13, and Elijah, 11, “I didn’t want my children to be afraid of me because I was always afraid of my parents.” “They won’t be beaten and carry those scars for the rest of their lives; instead, they will feel loved and accepted every single moment of the day. “I believed it was too late to have children, but they arrived at the perfect moment in my life, and that has taught me a lot,” People said.
