Can’t wait to hear it everywhere this summer.” 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. This is not just any song, mind you, but a remix of Elton John 's 1972 classic, 'Rocket Man.' Turns. It has been an absolute honor and privilege to collaborate on this track with him.

PNAU previously achieved an acclaimed UK number 1 in 2012 with the Elton Versus PNAU album Good Morning to the Night.Įlton John says: “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. “Cold Heart” is at once instantly recognizable and yet thoroughly contemporary – a modern dance floor filler based on four of Elton’s classic tracks expertly spliced together by Australian electronic band and producers PNAU – “Kiss The Bride” (originally from 1983 album Too Low For Zero), “Rocketman” (from 1972’s Honky Chateau), “Where’s the Shoorah?” (from 1976 double album Blue Moves) and “Sacrifice” (from 1989’s Healing Hands). The results of those sessions certainly live up to the billing.
