The long wait is over. Elton John and Britney Spears have released their joint single, 'Hold Me Closer.'

Produced by Andrew Watt, the highly anticipated track is an exhilarating bop complemented by bright melodies tinkered on a piano. Just like the Rocketman's single with Dua Lipa, 'Hold Me Closer' is a reinvention of John's 1972 hit, 'Tiny Dancer,' mashed up with his 1992 single 'The One.'

Prior to its release, the single started gaining traction after John posted a snippet of the song on his Tiktok account (which also featured the single's cover art, childhood photos of the two artists).

@eltonjohn #HoldMeCloser with @britneyspears. Coming August 26 🌹🚀 #newmusic #electronic #remix ♬ Hold Me Closer - Elton John & Britney Spears

With this special track now available on all streaming sites, fans of the pop princess rejoice as it has been six years since she released new music. 'Hold Me Closer' also marks Spears' return to music since her conservatorship was lifted.
