My Kind of Fame

Twelve years ago I had a dream that I was Bernie Taupin. When I woke up, I wasn't sure why I would have a dream I was Bernie Taupin.

Then, with sleep still in my eyes, I realized, Bernie Taupin is my idol. Not in the conventional sense. Sure he's written great lyrics throughout his 40-plus year partnership with Elton John. But what really interested me in him is his fame. He's wealthy, well respected, but not physically recognized. Imagine Elton John walking into a crowded room without being recognized. You can't. But Bernie?

That's my kind of fame.
