Nicole Kidman is in possession of a critical piece of music history that holds a very special place in her heart.
The Practical Magic actress appeared on the January 30 episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, revealing that she owns Bernie Taupin's original handwritten lyrics to Elton John's "Your Song," released in 1970. The talk show host inquired if Kidman has ever asked another celebrity for an autograph, to which she replied:
"Well, I’ve asked people to sign a copy of a book. Philip Roth and Elton John. That was because we bought lyrics of 'Your Song.'"
According to People, the beloved track was featured in Kidman's 2001 film Moulin Rouge! and she's even performed it with her husband, Keith Urban, before one of his concerts. The Hours standout shared footage of a cover of the classic to Instagram in 2019 featuring Urban at the piano as she belted the tune from the couch beside him.
Though the actress divulged ownership of the original handwritten "Your Song" lyrics, she did not reveal where she and Urban keep them in their home.
Speaking of iconic music, the actress also told Colbert that the first concert she attended was AC/DC, the second was David Bowie, and the third was INXS.
