So the records start to fall, Elton John has top 40 hit in 2021 this week. So Mariah has to wait another 25 years and Madonna can spare 10 more before getting level with Elton. And obviously this is quintessential Elton song not the other way around where he is featured on somebodyΒ΄s hot artists song. Actually Elton might start the new trend with this mix of old songs - next Paul McCartney or Elvis Presley(I heard he is still alive!!!!)... There's is some major reasons for this happening. First Dua Lipa is on this otherwise it would get next to no traction. Second they used Elton John's Orginal vocals not his old crow voice he has now. Third the Remix is good and it has a nostalgic feeling too it. They did this remix properly and nailed it. Actually Elton did nothing but add his Orginal vocals. No these are new vocals from Elton.

No, they are not. Those are Elton's 1989 vocals, just listen to the original.

All of Eltons vocals on the Remix are the originals sent for the Remix.
Omg this is known for awhile now.
In the video he is slightly singing over the Remix lol. If they used his current vocals the song would be trash like people expected it to be.
He ruined "Love Again" when he performed it live with Dua.
Thank God they used his old vocals and everyone I have spoken with agrees that was the right choice. This also makes it nostalgic just like when they did the Remix with Elvis years back.

youtu.be/YGANSo-ZaaQyoutu.be/oH1KLWwAqWEThis tells it all without even having to look up media reports. However he did send his Orginal awesome vocals in to make this song amazing. Thank God. Of you have an ear for music and vocals it's very obvious they are the originals that were submitted. This is a no brainer. Plus it was confirmed by the remixer.

Madge must be seething somewhere right now (in more ways than one ) Madonna is happily celebrating her 63rd birthday in Italy with her family & friends and doesn't give a F about charts or Elton John. She must be living rentfree in your mind though.

I really like this song despite my dislike for Elton. If it becomes a hit, they should send Sine From Above to radios.

And I don't think these vocals on "Cold Heart" are the best by Elton anyway...

It's the original. I will say that I disagree that Elton couldn't do it well with his current voice. You can take all the time you want in the studio to get it right, plus the song was recorded post-1987 when he had his vocal surgery that deepened his voice.

So there is no proof, whatever you know or believe. By the way original Sacrifice is vocally much higher than in "Cold Heart". Anyway, Elton's part from "Sacrifice" does not need that big of a effort, so that might be the reason the song was chosen, so Elton can manage it at the age of 74.

Show proof of the new vocals when they are exactly the same as the old ones. These are 80s vocals. Tweaked to the song. Anyways this will become obvious soon so my debate over this is not worth my energy. This song is fantastic!!!

The last oldest artist to hit: - top 40 Hot 100? - top 10 Hot 100? Paul McCartney was credited on "FourFive Seconds" at the age of 72. I don't know if anyone ever made it to the top 10 while older. How about older artist, credited but with real vocal? Paul didnt even sing a single note on 45S

Actually Dua is not singing really here, the female part is manipulated from Elton's original "Rocket Man" vocals and mixed up with up to current computer program to sound just like Dua Lipa. How did they manage that? They added female touch to Elton's masculine one from Kate Bush vocals of Rocket Man and the plan was to name the song "Cold Rocket Woman" feat. duo Lipa's Sacrifice!

This is really well done. It stays true enough to the originals but updates them in just the right way. I am really surprised to see this being pushed here.

I actually like Madonna, youβre the one who has to be a stiff about it. π Why trying to shade her though? She didn't even acknowledge and promote Levitating remix though. It's Dua who loves to work with legends like M, Kylie, Elton. Though M and Kylie collabs are wasted opportunities but that's another subject for discussion. I'm happy this is going to be a hit by the looks of hit.
