Miranda LambertandEnrique Iglesias, though an unlikely duo, have come together in the name of love songs.
On Friday, the Spanish singer, 48, released"Space in My Heart"— his first venture into country music with none other than Lambert, 40.
“Space in My Heart,” which was recorded in Nashville, is a guitar-backed love song about opening up to a significant other — and making room within yourself to love them.
“You don’t love me yet, but I know you will/If you only felt half of what I feel,” Iglesias and Lambert sing together in the chorus. “If you ever go, I will never change/There’s a space in my heart and it’s just your shape.”

This marks Iglesias' third single from his upcoming albumFinal Vol. 2.
The country star also posted to herInstagram Storyto share how excited she was to drop the song. “Texas meets Spain! 🤠,” she wrote over the single artwork, referring to her native Texas and how Iglesias hails from Madrid.
“Can’t wait for y’all to hear this one,” she added.
The song is Lambert’s first release of the year and follows “If You Were Mine,” another team-up that she dropped in June 2023 withLeon Bridges. The single was the first track to be released since the “Kerosene” singer revealed in March of that year that she was parting ways from her longtime record label, Sony Music Nashville, after 19 years.
As for the “Bailando” artist, he recently shared “Fría” featuring Cuban singer Yotuel, which is set to appear on his upcoming album.
The Spanish superstar’s upcoming LP is to be his last album ever. He previously released the first half of the project,Final (Vol. 1), in 2021.
Although he’s confirmed that the forthcoming project will be his last full-length release, he previously confirmed to PEOPLE in a 2021 interview that itdidn’t mean he was fully retiring. “It means that it’s the last album that I’m gonna make," the “Hero” singer clarified. “That doesn’t mean I’m retiring — a lot of people have asked me, are you gonna retire?”
He continued, “No, I’m never gonna retire! I’m gonna keep on writing songs, but that doesn’t mean I need to be putting out albums every so often.”
