Hear Elton John and Brandi Carlile’s New Song ‘Never Too Late’

Elton John and Brandi Carlile have released a brand new song, “Never Too Late.”

It will appear in John’s upcoming documentary Elton John: Never Too Late, which is set to be released on Dec. 13 on Disney +.

“When Brandi told me she was so inspired by the early cut of the documentary that she wanted us to co-write a new song for it, I was thrilled,” John wrote in an Instagram post. “We loved the collaboration so much that it became the title for the film. I’ve known for a long time how great she was but still, reading her lyrics and co-writing with her on the music was deeply moving. Especially given how personal it is to see, seeing my life on the screen, she just perfectly captured the essence of the documentary and why I stopped touring to spend more time with my family. I’m constantly astonished by her craft, she can channel my voice in a way only Bernie [Taupin] has managed to do before. I know Bernie helped guide Brandi on that.”

“I think everyone knows how I feel about this man,” Carlile wrote in her own Instagram post. “I would never have played a piano chord or written a word without my heroes Elton John and [Bernie Taupin]. This film documents Elton’s unparalleled brilliance, bravery and resilience. It not only cements Elton’s role as one of the most important and influential figures in rock and roll history, but it offers an insight into what an incredible husband and father he is, and the peace and serenity he found later in life.”
