Lzzy Hale is no stranger to a good cover — her band Halestorm are known to bust out powerhouse renditions of other artists' songs live, and they have three covers EPs to their name so far. Now, Hale has lent her rafter-shaking voice to a new cover, an epic take on Journey's "Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)," that finds her joining forces with Daughtry, the namesake band of American Idol finalist Chris Daughtry. Notably, their joint rendition was released exactly 40 years to the day that the original song was dropped: January 5th, 1983.
"Chris Daughtry and I have been threatening to unleash a duet for years," Hale commented. "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!"
