Elton John and ABBA recently shared an incredible mash-up of "Chiquitita" and "Bennie and the Jets" on TikTok.
"Heard about this little mashup of Bennie and the Jets with @ABBA and had to get involved," Elton captioned the video, adding the hashtags "#piano #bennieandthejets #abba #eltonjohn #remix #pop #chiquitita"
ABBA's official TikTok account also shows the video with the caption, "Heard that 'Chiquitita' was trending again…with @Elton John!"
The clip shows Benny Andersson playing the iconic intro to ABBA's 1979 hit "Chiquitita" on a black grand piano in what appears to be a studio. Elton then appears onscreen, sitting at a brown piano and launching into the intro to his 1973 hit "Bennie and the Jets" before flashing a wide grin.
ABBA and Elton remotely performed a live rendition of each of their songs before they were blended in the TikTok app.
