Ann Wilson and Vince Gill Cover Queen’s ‘Love Of My Life’

Ann Wilson collaborated with Vince Gill on her newly released rendition of Queen‘s classic “Love of My Life,” taken from her upcoming solo album, Fierce Bliss.

The duo took a different approach of their cover as Gill sang the first verse and chorus, while Wilson’s vocals took the second verse. And together, they both harmonize in the bridge and final chorus.

Wilson said in a statement:

“‘Love of My Life’ is a beautiful song about endless love. It was my honor to duet with Vince Gill on this song – an unforgettable experience for which I’m grateful!

“I had the idea for the Queen song ‘Love of My Life’ as a duet, so I just tried to picture who would be ‘the male angel’ that would sing the other part of it. I thought how great the song would be if it was stripped down and just sung with soul, and it had to be Vince Gill because he’s got that voice, that soul.”

Fierce Bliss marks as Wilson’s third solo album that includes cover songs such as Eurythmics’ “Missionary Man,” Robin Trower’s “Bridge of Sighs” and Jeff Buckley’s “Forget Her.” The album contains 11 songs and also features Warren Haynes of Gov’t Mule. It will be released on April 29 while several singles have already been released, including “Greed,” “Black Wing” and “Missionary Man.”

Wilson will hit the road for her North American tour next month with her backing band, the Amazing Dawgs. She also hopes to make another Heart album with her sister, Nancy, in 2023, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the duo using the band name.

Wilson recently told Rock Candy:

“The songs lead everything. And I’m writing songs again now. I don’t know if they’ll be for my solo thing or for Heart. But yes, I would like to make another Heart album.”
