The collaboration between Aerosmith and Yungblud extends beyond last weekend’s Ozzy Osbourne tribute at the MTV VMAs. The iconic rock band and the emerging punk artist are promoting a new song titled “My Only Angel,” which is currently available for presave.
On Monday, both artists shared a teaser for “My Only Angel” on social media, featuring a clip of Steven Tyler and Yungblud singing together in a vocal booth, which can be viewed below.
“Will you cry if I call you my angel?” both artists sing. “Gotta leave, gotta leave, gotta leave you one more time.”

‘My Only Angel’ Marks Aerosmith’s First New Music in Over a Decade
“My Only Angel” will be Aerosmith’s first new music since their 2012 studio album Music From Another Dimension!. This release also marks their first significant activity since canceling their Peace Out farewell tour and retiring from touring last summer due to a vocal injury that Tyler sustained at the beginning of the tour in 2023.
Tyler has made sporadic onstage appearances since then, notably performing at Ozzy Osbourne’s Back to the Beginning farewell show on July 5, where he sang “Train Kept A-Rollin’“, “Walk This Way“, and Led Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love“. Yungblud, who also performed at that event, delivered a memorable rendition of Black Sabbath's “Changes“.
The two artists reunited at the VMAs last weekend, participating in an Ozzy tribute alongside Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry and Extreme guitarist Nuno Bettencourt, among others. Yungblud performed snippets of “Crazy Train” and “Changes” before joining Tyler and Perry for an emotional rendition of Ozzy’s “Mama, I’m Coming Home“.
