Two generations of pop royalty have officially joined forces, with Madonna and Sabrina Carpenter releasing their long-teased collaboration “Bring Your Love”.
The euphoric dance-pop track arrives after the pair debuted it live during Carpenter’s second Coachella headline set last month, where Madonna emerged as a surprise guest for performances of “Vogue”, “Like a Prayer”, and the then-unreleased duet.
Per Variety, “Bring Your Love” will appear on Madonna’s upcoming album Confessions II, the sequel to her iconic 2005 dance record Confessions on a Dance Floor. The new project reunites Madonna with longtime collaborator Stuart Price and continues her return to club-focused electronic music.
On the track, Madonna handles the opening verse before Carpenter joins in on the disco-house chorus: “Bring your love ’cause you cannot shake me / Bring your love ’cause you’ll never break me / Bring your love ’cause you cannot take me down.”
The collaboration had been teased for days across social media following the pair’s now-viral Coachella appearance. In a joint Instagram post announcing the release, they wrote: “We’ve got something to say about it.”
Madonna’s Confessions II is due for release on July 3rd via Warner Records as the follow-up to her iconic 2005 record, which generated the hits “Hung Up”, “Sorry”, “Get Together”, and “Jump”, and is one of her most-beloved albums.
“People think that dance music is superficial, but they’ve got it all wrong,” Madonna said in a statement of Confessions II. “The dance floor is not just a place, it’s a threshold: A ritualistic space where movement replaces language.”

The original Confession on a Dance Floor marked the first time that Price produced a Madonna record, though they began working together in 2001 when he remixed songs from her 2001 album, Music.
We’ve been treated to a few taste of the forthcoming album, with other recent single “I Feel So Free”.
