According to TODAY, John confirmed the partnership in an Instagram post with the song titled “Hold Me Closer” with an emoji of a rose and a rocket ship. It is likely a homage to the “Rocket Man” singer’s 1971 hit “Tiny Dancer” with the release date.

Spears has not released any music since 2016′s “Glory.” TODAY reported that fans were hoping for the singer to release new material since her conservatorship ended in November 2021.
