Scottish singing sensation Susan Boyle has confirmed details of her latest album ‘Standing Ovation’, due out November 19th.
A stunning album of songs from the golden era of film and stage, the record is her fourth studio album in three years. ‘Standing Ovation’ sees Susan Boyle and world acclaimed producer Biff Stannard join forces to present a sensational album that will span the generations.
Featuring breathtaking renditions of ‘Send in the Clowns’ and ‘Bring Him Home’, Susan fearlessly takes on the iconic song ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow’, giving it a brand new identity. ‘Standing Ovation’ also showcases duets with her lifelong idol Donny Osmond - and the ‘Phantom’ himself Michael Crawford.
The album heralds a return to an era of much loved music for Susan Boyle, a lifelong fan of musicals. Her favourite songs from the golden age of film and theatre fused with her outstanding vocals from the ethereal to the dramatic, the music showcases the voice the world fell in love with.
Talking about her new effort, Susan said: “I have been a fan of musicals since I was a wee girl. I love them and have enjoyed the drama and the range of emotions they inspire in you. I still remember the first time I saw Les Mis, my all time favourite. I fell in love with it and have seen it now countless times as each time you watch it you draw something different.
“Creating this album was a joy and came very naturally as I knew the songs and could identify with the characters in the studio. Recording with Donny on two songs was a dream come true. Working with him was awesome and I learned so much from him as a performer and a person. Being in the studio with him was without doubt the best day ever- it wasn’t work!”
Donny Osmond said; “I remember watching Susan's debut on Britain's Got Talent. I had the same reaction Simon Cowell and the rest of the world had. Susan has the voice of an angel; I consider it an honor that she asked me to be featured on her album.”
Keep your eye out for the album when it hits shelves next month, and stay with Stereoboard to see if Boyle decides to take the album on tour anytime soon.
