Watch: HALESTORM's LZZY HALE Joins DAUGHTRY On Stage In London To Perform JOURNEY Classic
April 3, 2023HALESTORM's Lzzy Hale joined the multi-platinum rock band DAUGHTRY on stage last Monday (March 27) at the Royal Albert Hall in London, England to perform a cover of the JOURNEY classic "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)". Fan-filmed video of her appearance can be seen below.
This past January, DAUGHTRY released a studio version of its "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)" cover, featuring vocals from Hale. The new rendition of the track arrived exactly 40 years to the day that the original song was released on January 5, 1983.
At the time of the DAUGHTRY song's release, Lzzy said in a statement: "Chris Daughtry and I have been threatening to unleash a duet for years. What better way to do that than by paying tribute to one of our mutual influences…. JOURNEY! This song is not only part of the 'Stranger Things' soundtrack, but has been my go-to for karaoke for as long as i can remember! I'm so honored to have been a part of this and I hope it makes you smile as big as I did while recording it!"
Chris added: "I've always loved the song and I was wanting to do a classic cover and my wife and I were watching the 'Stranger Things' season finale and there's this incredibly intense scene and 'Separate Ways' was a big part of this scene. It was so moving just the way it was used, it felt so cool and epic and I was immediately like 'THIS is the one! We have to cover this song.' Then I was, like, 'How can we make this extra special? What if it was a duet? What if we got Lzzy on it!!??" Needless to say I was pumped she said yes and I absolutely love how it turned out."
DAUGHTRY, one of the most visible and best-selling rock bands of the 21st Century, has sold out concerts across the globe. Their debut album, the self-titled "Daughtry", was the top-selling album of 2007, and was the fastest-selling rock debut album in SoundScan history.
