Elton John x Britney - Hold Me Closer 🌹🚀

[POP!]

Feels like it should have its own thread now that it's been confirmed by Britney directly

 

[Diddy]

Well, it's been confirmed by Britney indirectly after all that

I was going to say that looks like shabby fan-art but that's exactly what it is!

Incredible forethought though for Elton to wear a baseball outfit with "Bridgney", an archaic spelling of Britney from the 70s

 

[OutSynk]

Elton John? So excited

 

[Funky]

Sounds like whatever that duets album was Part 2? Or a deluxe but I think there was already one?

 

[Penelope]

Can't wait for this disaster Cornelia cover

Can't wait for this disaster Cornelia cover

Sneak peek:

 

[GNL]

'Tiny Dancer' is an absolute classic, so I imagine it will be at least OK by default.

 

[Funky]

Sneak peek:

 

[Voodoo]

Can't wait to hear Myah Marie's glorious vocals attempting to re-create Cold Heart.

 

[SystemAddict]

I hope it's fun for discotheques like this hot OH EIGHT collaboration which is ALMOST Eurodance sounding.

 

[PercyPig]

Leaky

 

[Berly]

Sounds like it was recorded on the Titanic

 

[Saltwater]

Sounds like it was recorded on the Titanic

Well baby they went down and got it for you

 

[dUb]

Sounds RATHER GOOD!

 

[POP!]

This actually sounds really good

 

[PercyPig]

Never thought I’d say it but I’ve kind of missed her vocal stylings (or the computer doing them)

 

[OutSynk]

It's nice. Well done Prinny

 

[Christian]

Sounds fab. Is it by Pnau again?

 

[Jark]

this is fucking fabulous. not entirely convinced that's actually Brinty Jane singing the verses though, and the computer is working overtime on the chorus

 

[Cerro de Casa]

OMG I LIKE

 

[Rita]

Ooh I like this!!

 

[Pipo]

Well, that's certainly a different vocal coming from her!

 

[Pipo]

Sounds fab. Is it by Pnau again?

It does like them innit

 

[POP!]

Would love to hear her make the transition into Jessie Ware style sophisticated synth pop for a full album. This is obviously not there yet, but definitely promising.

 

[POP!]

The (real) cover art is cute. It's confirmed it's getting a push at pop radio, at least in America, I think it will be her first top ten hit since "Scream and Shout"

 

[PercyPig]

I know Britney has a reputation for getting her fonts from dafont.com (where’s my 2005 Graphic Design girls at? ) but why is the font so shit?!

 

[Apoca]

Well baby they went down and got it for you

Awww, they shouldn't have

 

[POP!]

On an unrelated note, Britney's demo of "Sucker for Pain" (Suicide Squad soundtrack) leaked in part.

 

[dUb]

Elton played the whole song (which sounds a bit different/better produced APPARENTLY) in Cannes

He's very cute bopping along

 

[Lucille]

omg they played ‘Scream and Shout’ at THE CLUB last night, I’d totally forgotten it exists, it really goes off way harder than it has ANY RIGHT TO!

 

[Pipo]

ah yes, Scream & Shout, I love the original by Tulisa.

 

[OutSynk]

He's very cute bopping along

u ok hun

 

[GinAg (39)]

I am so tired of Elton fucking John.

 

[Pipo]

 

[Iguana]

 

[jyxz]

I legit thought this man in the crowd was someone wearing a mask

 

[Christian]

I love Elton

 

[GNL]

It's out (officially now).



I prefer the original but it's nice!

 

[supermassive]

It's the 25th Anniversary of Diana's death next week, seems like a missed opportunity for Britney and Elton to do a 25th Anniversary remix of Candle In The Wind.

 

[Music]

LOVE THIS! It looks like it’s going to be a big hit too.
