More PNAU More PNAU

Aussie electro-dance trio PNAU have leant their skills to a brand new single from pop legend Elton John as he collaborates with hit songmaker Dua Lipa.

The new track, Cold Heart, is a sparkly new mashup of some classic John tunes re-recorded with Lipa on guest vocals. Kiss The Bride, Where’s The Shoorah?, Sacrifice and Rocketman are all blended together in this massive party track which PNAU have said is a love letter to the eventual return to the club floor.

“Setting a stage for the two greatest performers in the world today Sir Elton John and Dua Lipa, we knew we had to go in deep, take them into our world, the psychedelic lazer black lit club. Where all of us can meet on the dance floor, forget the outside and lose ourselves in the healing waters of music and love eternal.”

The singers were also excited for the tune to come together, with John saying “The last 18 months have been hard, but being off the road has meant that I’ve actually had time to get back to my roots as a session player and collaborate with some wonderful artists. And having the opportunity to spend time with Dua, albeit remotely, has been incredible. 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.”


Lipa added, “Ever since we first 'met' online, we totally clicked. Elton is such an inspirational artist and also has the naughtiest sense of humour – a perfect combination."

"It has been an absolute honour and privilege to collaborate on this track with him. It’s so very special, with some of my very favourite Elton John classic songs combined – I loved being part of such a creative and joyous experience. Can’t wait to hear it everywhere this summer.”

This is just the latest in a series of PNAU and Elton John crossovers, with the team first coming together in 2012 to release the number one album Good Morning To The Night (at the time his first UK #1 in 22 years). Read all about their work together and how it got started here.
