Aerosmith and Yungblud have revealed a snippet of a new collaboration called My Only Angel.
The I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing legends teamed up with the Zombie rock star earlier this month for a tribute to Ozzy Osbourne at the MTV Video Music Awards, and now they’ve unveiled plans to release a new song together.
Following the VMAs, the two acts each shared cryptic clips on social media teasing something “secret”.
In the video, Yungblud and Steven Tyler hugged each other, and the latter said: “We got a secret and nobody knows it.”
Just over a week later, the artists have posted a teaser of new single My Only Angel, as they sing a snippet of the song before the 28-year-old star gives the Crazy singer, 77, a kiss on the cheek.
Steven adds: “Nice! F*****’ a, s***. Hallelujah!”
In the song, they sing together: “Will you cry / if I called you my angel / gotta leave, gotta leave, gotta leave you one more time.”
The new tune will mark the first original track Aerosmith have released since 2012 release Music From Another Dimension!
It’s currently unclear if the collaboration is a one-off or part of a more substantial project.
At the VMAs, Yungblud kicked off the tribute to Ozzy – who died in July aged 76 – with Crazy Train and Black Sabbath’s Changes, before Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry joined him to perform Mama, I’m Coming Home.
The Darkness brothers Justin and Dan Hawkins have blasted the performance, as the latter described it as “another nail in the coffin of rock n roll”.
He wrote on Instagram: “Cynical, nauseating and more importantly; s***.”
Seemingly referring to Yungblud, he added: “Makes me sick how people jump on this s*** to further their own careers.”
His brother Justin defended his brother’s outburst, and accused Yungblud of “positioning himself as a natural heir to the Ozzy legacy” without having a connection to “the really important stuff”.
The Growing On Me singer argued on his Justin Hawkins Rides Again podcast: “I suppose one of the things that irks musicians of a certain age is to watch Ozzy invent heavy metal, then turn into this household name with the television series and his decades of being brilliant, and then you kind of think ‘What the f*** does all those decades of having this incredible legacy got to do with Yungblud?’ ”
