Elton John and Dua Lipa have today unveiled The Blessed Madonna’s Remix of “Cold Heart” with Dua Lipa. The Blessed Madonna first came to Elton’s attention as a consistently uncompromising voice with the electronic music community, remixing a wealth of his favorite artists. Her music has become a regular fixture on Elton’s Apple Music Rocket Hour show and she has been high on his wish list of collaborators since. The Blessed Madonna is also no stranger to Dua Lipa, having co-curated Dua’s ‘Club Future Nostalgia’ album and remixed her global hit “Levitating.” It’s a combination that’s a completely natural fit and has been a long, long time in coming. The results do not disappoint. Listen here.

Already growing into a bonafide international hit record in its own right, the original album version of “Cold Heart (PNAU Remix)” is taken from Elton’s eagerly anticipated ‘The Lockdown Sessions.’ A 16-track album of collaborations recorded remotely over the last 18 months, ‘The Lockdown Sessions’ will be released on October 22nd via Interscope Records.

Speaking of the remix, The Blessed Madonna says: “Like just about everyone on the planet, I stand in awe of Elton John and Dua Lipa. It was such an enormous honor to be asked to be a part of their collaboration which is such a beautiful project. I immediately loved the song and I tried very hard to do it justice. It is nothing but pure joy to be in the orbit of these icons and their great big, warm beautiful hearts. I appreciate all of you listening.

The Blessed Madonna remix of “Cold Heart” is accompanied by a bespoke visualizer – with motion graphics artist James Stevens remixing the stunning official video for “Cold Heart (PNAU Remix)” created by Hamburg based animator and director Raman Djafari. Watch the visualizer here. A beautifully animated, trippy journey, the visuals form a fabulous counterpart to the video for the original song. 360 Magazine is really impressed by the beautiful graphic work in the music video which gives an animate feeling for the younger generation to be interested in. 

Also today, tickets for the London date of Elton’s ‘Farewell Yellow Brick Road – The Final Tour’ go on general sale to the public. BST Hyde Park will host this historic show on Friday, June 24, 2022.        

An unparalleled career that has forever changed the cultural landscape, Elton John’s collaborations with Bernie Taupin and others continue to shape the cultural landscape, break records, top charts and win new fans across the generations. We’ve had the book, the film, the farewell tour, the fashion collections, and the greatest hits. And now with ‘The Lockdown Sessions’ available in digital formats, fans can enter Elton’s new world which is no doubt another fitting addition to his oeuvre.
