Elton has recorded two exclusive Spotify Singles tracks

Elton’s exclusive Spotify Singles tracks are ‘Bennie and the Jets’ and a cover of Khalid’s ‘Young Dumb & Broke’, which features Khalid himself on the track.

Spotify Singles are a series of two-track ‘singles’, which see both emerging and established artists re-recording one of their biggest hits, and also a cover version of a favourite track.

I discovered Khalid's music a few years ago, and have been a fan ever since. We finally met when I played his home town of El Paso last year. It's a thrill to be a small part of any new artists' journey, and it's been wonderful to see his star continue to rise and rise. 'Young Dumb & Broke' is a fabulous song, one of my favourites and I'm really pleased that he liked my cover enough to contribute vocals.

The two tracks were recorded for Spotify live at The Colosseum, Caesars Palace, Las Vegas.

Bennie And The Jets is one of Elton’s most famous tracks – originally released in 1973 and featured on the iconic Goodbye Yellow Brick Road album. Young Dumb & Broke was originally released in February 2017 as the second single from Khalid’s debut solo album American Teen.
