Britney Spears and Elton John duet ‘Hold Me Closer’ officially confirmed

Fans who have eagerly awaited new music from Britney Spears since the termination of her conservatorship in November can now rest easy. Today, she’s shared her first new music since the release of her ninth studio album, Glory, in 2016 — though “new” is relative here.

Britney Spears is back on our airwaves thanks to «Hold Me Closer,» a highly anticipated duet with Elton John and spin-off of his 1971 hit, «Tiny Dancer.» While it's racking up hundreds of thousands of hits on YouTube, John revealed in a new interview that Spears was apparently hesitant about dropping their finished product. «We had to get her to approve what she did,” he told . “She’s been away so long – there’s a lot of fear there because she’s been betrayed so many times and she hasn’t really been in the public eye officially for so long. We’ve been holding her hand through the whole process, reassuring her that everything’s gonna be alright.»Not that there was any reason to believe it wouldn't.

A crowning moment for the princess of pop. Britney Spears teamed up with Elton John for a duet inspired by “Tiny Dancer,” her first release since the end of her conservatorship.

Britney Spears and Elton John have released their much anticipated single together – ‘Hold Me Closer’ – a rework of John’s 1971 song ‘Tiny Dancer’.In a statement, Spears says: “I was so honoured when the incredible Sir Elton John asked me to join him on one his most iconic songs. We are so excited for the fans to hear it! Thank you, Elton, for having me! I am so grateful that I got the opportunity to work with you and your legendary mind”.Speaking to The Guardian about the recording, John says: “She sang fantastically.

Britney Spears did it again — put out hit music, that is. For the first time since her conservatorship was terminated, the singer has released a new single: «Hold Me Closer,» a collaboration with fellow music icon Elton John.

Thania Garcia Brintey Spears and Elton John have released “Hold Me Closer,” a reimagined duet of the piano man’s immortal tune, “Tiny Dancer.” The song is Spears’ first release since the termination of her conservatorship in November of 2021 and her first new music release in six years.While the chorus is, of course, unmistakable, the song has been completely overhauled into a breezy dance-pop song, with Spears and John duetting gently on the verses and chorus and John adding trademark piano flourishes throughout. It’s an ideal follow-up to his similar reinvention on “Cold Cold Heart” with Dua Lipa, released last summer and featured on his “Lockdown Sessions” duets album, which essentially mashed up his songs “Sacrifice” and “Rocket Man.”  

Elton John says he was so “excited” to work with Britney Spears on their new duet.
