London: Singing legend Elton John says Kate Bush's 1986 number "Don't give up" saved his life.
John credits Bush's duet with Peter Gabriel with inspiring him to "get sober", reports femalefirst.co.uk.
Speaking in "The Kate Bush Story: Running Up That Hill", an upcoming new BBC documentary, he said: "This was one record that saved my life.
"That record helped me get sober ... So she played a big part in my rebirth. That record helped me so much. I never told her that, but it did."
Meanwhile, John's struggle with substance addiction will be the subject of a new biopic.
