Rod Stewart is revisiting some of his most famous songs in a symphonic setting with Youre in My Heart, an upcoming album that blends his original vocal tracks with new arrangements from the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Trevor Horn (the Buggles, Yes) produced the LP, out November 22nd via Rhino.
The career-spanning project features updated versions of songs throughout the singers catalog from the 1971 folk-rock anthem Maggie May to the 1988 soft-rock hit Forever Young. Other hits include If We Fall in Love Tonight, I Dont Want to Talk About It, The First Cut Is the Deepest, Reason to Believe and Tonights the Night (Gonna Be Alright).
Youre in My Heart also features a new recording of It Takes Two featuring Robbie Williams and one brand new song, Stop Loving Her Today. Stewart previewed the record with a lush, oceanic take on Sailing, the closing ballad from his 1975 album, Atlantic Crossing.
