NEW YORK (AP) 鈥 Barbra Streisand is still a woman in love, and she’ll do anything to get you into her world.
That includes a new collection of duets with some of the biggest names in music. Streisand is preparing to release a new album, 鈥淭he Secret of Life: Partners, Volume Two,鈥 out in June. Across 11 tracks, she’s joined by heavy hitters Bob Dylan, James Taylor, Sting, Seal, Tim McGraw, , Ariana Grande and more.
First up is an emotive cover of 鈥淭he First Time Ever I Saw Your Face鈥 with Hozier. The song was originally written by English folk artist Ewan MacColl for his wife , but it’s cover 鈥 and not only because it was used in a love scene between and Donna Mills in his 1971 film 鈥淧lay Misty for Me.鈥 Streisand and Hozier give it their own spin.
