provided vocals for “Cold Heart,” a hybrid cover-mashup of several classic Elton John hits. The collaboration secured Elton John’s first Hot 100 hit in over 20 years , proving that Lipa’s star power could transcend generational barriers. Lipa gave the electro pop track “Love Again” new life over the summer by releasing it as a single nearly 15 months after its initial drop, practically unheard of at a time in pop music when album cycles often come and go in as little as a few weeks.
The track was paired with a surreal western-style music video, featuring imagery of cowboys, crying clowns, and giant eggs – another creative leap from Lipa this year. In addition to her musical efforts, Lipa also founded Service95, a weekly newsletter compiled of specially curated lists, features, music recommendations, and more to debut early next year — potentially branding her as the next great lifestyle guru, with a perfectly tailored soundtrack to match.
