Singer Dua Lipa Feels Ecstatic about Her Recently Released Song with Sir Elton John

There is a new collaboration in town with the Future Nostalgia queen and the original Rocketman. The duo came together on a project for the first time and the result is the perfect dancefloor track that one cannot help but single along with.

The single called ‘Cold Heart’ (PNAU Remix) by sir Elton John and Dua Lipa was also released with an accompanying music video on Friday where the two “totally clicked” when they met virtually according to Lipa said.

Lipa said in a press release about her co-singer, “Elton is such an inspirational artist and also has the naughtiest sense of humor – a perfect combination. It has been an absolute honor and privilege to collaborate on this track with him. I loved being part of such a creative and joyous experience. Can’t wait to hear it everywhere this summer.”

Elton John shared that the last 18 months in quarantine were hard on him but being off the road meant he could “go back to his roots” as a session player. And having the opportunity to collaborate with Lipa was “incredible.” Elton John also said about the young singer, “She’s given me so much energy. She’s a truly wonderful artist, and person, absolutely bursting with creativity and ideas. The energy she brought to ‘Cold Heart’ just blew my mind.”

The song is thematically based on four of Elton John’s classics including “Kiss the Bride,” “Rocketman,” “Where’s the Shoorah?” and “Sacrifice” which have all been vamped together by PNAU, an Australian music trio. John worked with the electronic band in 2012 to produce Good Morning to the Night, a collaboration album between John and the trio.

The music video, created by animator and director Raman Djafari, follows animated versions of John and Lipa entering a euphoric world before separating as their planets drift apart. The video draws a parallel to the last year and a half in lockdown.

The duo was previously seen together when Elton appeared as a guest on Lipa’s Studio 2054 live stream. Lipa also performed at The Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party, which raised over $3 million for the foundation. It was then that John reached out to Lipa to work on new music together remotely.

‘Cold Heat’ is now available across platforms.
