Anne-Marie and James Arthur have joined the circus with a whole bunch of other pop superstars for The Greatest Showman: Reimagined album.

Taking on the dreamily romantic 'Rewrite The Stars' from the blockbuster musical, the two Brits take on the role of Zac Efron and Zendaya, and actually headed to the circus for their brilliant cover's music video, too.

View the lyrics
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
You know you want me
So don't keep saying our hands are tied

You claim it's not in the cards
And fate is pulling you miles away
And out of reach from me
But you're here in my heart
So who can stop me if I decide that you're my destiny?

What if we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing could keep us apart
You'll be the one I was meant to find
It's up to you, and it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
So why don't we rewrite the stars?
And maybe the world could be ours tonight

You think it's easy
You think I don't wanna run to you, yeah
But there are mountains
And there are doors that we can't walk through

I know you're wondering why
Because we're able to be just you and me within these walls
But when we go outside
You're gonna wake up and see that it was hopeless after all

No one can rewrite the stars
How can you say you'll be mine?
Everything keeps us apart
And I'm not the one you were meant to find
It's not up to you, it's not up to me, yeah
When everyone tells us what we can be
And how can we rewrite the stars?
Say that the world can be ours tonight

All I want is to fly with you
All I want is to fall with you
So just give me all of you
It feels impossible
It's not impossible
Is it impossible?
Say that it's possible

How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine
And nothing can keep us apart
'Cause you are the one I was meant to find
It's up to you, and it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
And why don't we rewrite the stars?
Changing the world to be ours

You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
But I can't have you
We're bound to break and my hands are tied

Hide the lyrics

The two Brits put their own spin on the gorgeous original while staying true to its sentiment, simply adding a bit of their own je ne sais quoi to the production and vocal arrangements.

Both artists sound incredible on the track - almost as though it was written for them in the first place - and capture the song's emotion just perfectly with their performances.

We've wanted a duet between James and Anne-Marie for quite some time now, and this absolutely does not disappoint.

Anne-Marie and James are reppin' the UK on the Reimagined album alongside Jess Glynne, Years & Years and Craig David, while A-listers and pop legends like Kelly Clarkson, P!nk and Missy Elliott appear on other tracks.

Panic! at the Disco take on 'The Greatest Show', which was released a few weeks ago, as do acapella group Pentatonix on the deluxe version, while Kesha's version of 'This Is Me' features on the set.

The full album finally dropped today, meaning you can now listen to your favourite show tunes in a whole new light.

Can we get this every year with new artists every time? Because we never want this to end.
