Susan Boyle has released a new duet with British musical legend, Michael Ball, OBE. The chart topping Ball, who began his career in Les Miserables, has joined forces with the Scottish phenomenon who started her career on BGT with the now iconic rendition of the Les Miserables song, “I Dreamed A Dream.”
The lead track “A Million Dreams” from The Greatest Showman is available to buy and stream today, along with a brand new video documenting the recording of the track. Members of the Rock Choir, the UK’s largest choir with over 25,000 members, joined Susan and Michael. Recording at Angel Studios, London, 80 ‘Rockies’ from the Midlands took part.
Talking about the duet Susan said, “It’s been a wish of mine to meet Michael Ball, so to have the opportunity to perform with him was wonderful. He’s such a lovely man, so talented and has a velvety voice. I got my wish to work with him and even got to sit on his knee! I can’t wait for people to watch us perform this track on TV, it’s coming, watch this space.”
Michael Ball added, “Susan is a unique and special talent. I love the way our voices blend on this record and it was a total joy to be a part of it. The Rock Choir, of course, were magnificent. It was wonderful to talk to them and hear how Susan had inspired them to follow their dream and sing. I think this is a special record.”
Caroline Redman, founder of the Rock Choir said; “I am so thrilled that the Rock Choir members were invited to sing on Susan’s album. This moment was very special for us all. I’m very proud we were approached and especially that The Midlands Rock Choir members got the chance to record at the iconic Angel Studios in London.”
“A Million Dreams” is the lead track on Susan’s upcoming album TEN, releasing on Friday 5/31, and continues to cement her status as the most successful recording artist from the Got Talent brand. The beginning of 2019 saw Susan step back into the public eye when she performed her iconic rendition of “Wild Horses” on America’s Got Talent: The Champions. In April, she celebrated ten years by returning to the Britain’s Got Talent Stage, performing the song that started it all, “I Dreamed A Dream,” and the rest of 2019 is set to be just as incredible with performances, TV specials and her new album. TEN was produced in Glasgow by Cliff Masterson and Steve Anderson (Lionel Richie, Kylie Minogue, Emeli Sande and Westlife).
