Sir Elton John has given fans a “sneak peek” of his upcoming collaboration with Britney Spears.
The musical megastars have teamed up for their highly anticipated new song, “Hold Me Closer,” due out on Friday, August 26th.
In a short video shared on his social media, Sir Elton can be seen singing part of the song live at La Guérite beach restaurant in Cannes, France.
Wearing a colorful shirt and matching shorts, he sang from the DJ booth while fans cheered and filmed the performance.
It will be the second time in a year that Elton John has delighted fans at the restaurant, after performing his collaborative song “Cold Heart” featuring Dua Lipa in August 2021.
Hold Me Closer marks Spears’ return to the music scene amid an ongoing legal battle over guardianship with her father, Jamie Spears.
As well as new lyrics, the upbeat number features a line from Sir Elton’s 1971 hit “Tiny Dancer.”
