The partnership of Britney Spears and Elton John has reached the music platforms. But those who expected to hear Britney’s voice clearly, after six years without recording, may be disappointed. With her voice processed by many effects, her participation is almost unrecognizable, mixed with Elton’s voice to sound like a synthesizer.
Entitled “Hold me Closer”, the duet is a recreation of the 1971 British musician hit “Tiny Dancer”, with references also to “The One” from 1991, and the classic album “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart”. , from 1976. The recording was produced by Grammy Award winner Andrew Watt, who has worked with artists as diverse as Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Pearl Jam and Ozzy Osbourne.
Interestingly, Britney and Elton didn’t meet in person to work on the song. The Princess of Pop worked in the studio, while Elton participated in a video call.
With a danceable rhythm, the track follows the success formula of “Cold, Cold Heart”, a mashup of the hits “Rocket Man” and “Sacrifice”, which Elton re-recorded in a duet with Dua Lipa last year. The difference is that Dua Lipa could be heard in the previous song.
Britney, who canceled Instagram on the eve of the launch, expressed enthusiasm for the registration on Twitter.
“My first song in 6 years !!!! It’s really great that I’m singing with one of the most classic men of our time, Elton John! I’m a little overwhelmed, it’s a big step for me !!! I’m meditating on more and learning that my space is precious and precious !!! “, he wrote on the social network.
