Details of the project are limited but the new track will be titled Hold Me Closer, a spokesman confirmed to the PA news agency.

It had been previously speculated that the pair were working on a new version of John’s 1971 hit Tiny Dancer.

John shared an image to his official Instagram of a rose and rocket emoji with the words “hold me closer” on Monday.

More information is due to be shared in the coming week, the spokesman added.
