If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Elton John recently received an Oscar nomination for best original song for “Not Too Late,” which he co-wrote and sings with his pal Brandi Carlile. Now it appears the two have teamed up for yet another song.
Called “Who Believes In Angels?,” it’s currently posted on YouTube with a countdown timer that shows that it will debut Feb. 5 around noon ET.
It’s not clear if this song is a brand-new track or a single from an upcoming album. In November 2024, when asked what happened to the album that he had announced in November 2023, Elton told Good Morning America that losing his eyesight in his right eye had impeded his ability to go into the studio and record.
But in December 2023, Elton John’s pal The Who‘s Pete Townshend told ClashMusic.com that Elton had “just gone over to LA to make an album with Brandi Carlile,” adding, “He says it’s one of the best things they’ve ever done.” So perhaps this song is from that project — we’ll just have to wait and see.
