Elton John's husband David Furnish: says when he and John are next in California they plan to see Britney´´ (she delivered fantastic vocals)

[Headed Peckerhead]

Elton John's husband David Furnish has nothing but praise for Britney Spears on the heels of their hit, No. 1 collaboration "Hold Me Closer." 

ET caught up with Furnish at the DAR Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C. for the HISTORYTalks 2022 event where he detailed John and Spears' experience recording the track and their plans to celebrate in the future. 

"That's the first record she's put out in six years," Furnish said. "She went into the studio and she delivered fantastic vocals." 

Explaining how Spears was able to take control of her sound for the first time in over a decade, Furnish said, "She was quite specific about what she liked, what she wanted and how she wanted it to sound. And she gave terrific notes."

"She's very much in control and embracing her destiny, which is exactly what you want"

Furnish continued to share his and John's excitement for Britney as she finds her footing back in the music world. "Elton's hope is that she will get the courage now to deepen into music more. I think it's really scary when you're away from something for a very long time. It's quite daunting, and so he hopes this is the step and a baby step onto a path that sees her out doing great records again and maybe even performing," Furnish said. 

As far as celebrating the success of  "Hold Me Closer," Furnish says when he and John are next in California they plan to see Spears.  

"We haven't been able to celebrate with Britney 'cause she's been in America and we haven't come to that side of America yet, but when we get to the West Coast we're really looking forward to getting together," Furnish said.

How lovely and supportive! I hope Britney gets inspired from the success of her song choice as a free woman. 

[OneLife]

Finally there are good people around her..

[NnlovesGodney]

Aww this is really sweet. Britney is very much loved and I hope she knows that. A lot of times, the haters can be louder than the supporters… but I hope that she knows how loved she is and how we all want the best for her. No matter what she chooses to do in life.

[kasavas]

I hope she feels all the love

Wait, why is it that when Elton says supportive, wholesome things like this, y'all call him patronizing, but his husband can say it without y'all jumping down his throat? Someone explain it to me, because the math ain't mathin'.

Also, he's hot AF. 

[BeyonceIsQueen]

He ain’t lying.  Our fave sounds great on this track!

[SugarfallOnYoFacexx]

I mean we all know she can sing we have all the proof of that 

and I’m thankful for this project 

It’s not that we questioned that at all ever Britney needs to quit worrying and do what’s natural to her 

her team seem to punish her based on what we think and that’s not cool 

they do hide her vocals sometimes over the beat and when it’s a dance track you can’t expect it to be about singing 

she sounds beautiful on all versions of all her songs

she’s great we still appreciated it idk why folks are in over their head about it she sounds amazing on HMC

[Slayer]

This is very sweet!

[GlitterRain]

Aww! Love this! 

[thegrove]

I love how basically everyone who works with Britney basically says the same thing : she’s a hard working professional who knows her **** much more than everyone assumes.
