Demi Lovato and JoJo to drop 'Lonely Hearts Remix' by August-end, fans say vocal queens will 'slay' it

The striking starlets will be joining forces on a rework of the 'Lonely Hearts' single, which was originally released by JoJo on her 'Good To Know' album in May

Popstar Demi Lovato will be teaming up with a fellow pop queen, the R&B singer JoJo, on a new collaborative remix that drops at the end of this month, on August 28. On August 5, it was revealed that the pair's highly-anticipated partnership will take shape in the form of a brand-new track titled 'Lonely Hearts Remix', which the singers had worked on from their respective homes due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. JoJo had previously released the original 'Lonely Hearts' song in April this year, as the promotional single from her new album 'Good To Know', which dropped on May 1, 2020.

Considering the track talks about a fragile lover who is working on self-love and self-improvement in their relationship, Lovato is a great fit for the heartfelt and introspective mood of the song. The poignant lyrics include the lines: "How can I work on me if I'm working on your body? / I thought we were meant to be, but we never really got it, did we? / I know one thing  Lonely hearts won't break." JoJo's soaring and delicate vocals on this version are sure to perfectly complement the tender yet powerhouse delivery that Lovato is capable of belting out. You can take a listen to the original 'Lonely Hearts' track by JoJo below:
