The legendary musician spoke with BBC about the premiere of the film that will be hitting U.S. theaters on May 31st. He said, "Very emotional. I mean, you're seeing your life as it was.

"You know, it was fantasy - I mean the sequences are fantasy, but the reality was that's how I was. I'm just relieved, I'm so glad I don't have to do that any more.

"I'm so glad I can wake up in the morning, see my children, see David and not have to deal with that awful behavior and that awful addiction."
