.OfficialElton and StevieWonder dropped the music video for 'Finish Line,' featuring old clips of the pair together through the years.
“I’ve been through so many down periods in my life. I’ve battled alcoholism and drugs and I’ve been 31 years sober now,” John told. “Of course, I’m going to feel good by hearing this song because I have had redemption and I have now a wonderful life and I lead a good life. … This song really makes me feel very proud of who I’ve become, proud of working with someone like Stevie.”
It’s also deeply personal for Wonder, who was originally supposed to just play harmonica but was convinced by John to lend his voice as well to “Finish Line.” “I remember a teacher said to me, ‘You know, Stevie, you’ve got three strikes against you … you’re blind, you’re Black and you’re poor,'” he said. “She was saying, ‘You should just stop doing this music thing … because you’ll end up making potholders.
