The 'Take me to Church' singer believes that his song with Barbra 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face' will be a tribute to Roberta Flack's incredible legacy.
"Ewan MacColl's 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face,' made famous by the stunning Roberta Flack recording, has always mystified me. It is, to me, one of the most beautiful love songs ever written. Like so many, I was deeply saddened to hear of her recent passing. Along with the honour I have to sing on this record with Barbra, I hope this duet offers something of a gesture to Roberta Flack's incredible legacy." added Hozier as quoted by Variety.
Dylan has rarely recorded duets over the decades, so fans will be eager for the collaboration between him and Barbra.
On her iconic collaborations, the singer Barbra said, "I've always loved singing duets with gifted artists. They inspire me in unique and different ways...and make our time in the studio a joy! My new album, 'The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume Two,' gave me the chance to work and play with some of my old friends, label mates, and new artists too. I admire all of them... and I hope that you'll enjoy listening to our collaborations as much as I enjoyed recording with all of my wonderful partners," as quoted by Variety.

All because she reluctantly joins the conniving Agatha ( Kathryn Hahn ) for a stroll down the subterranean Witches' Road, a mystical endurance challenge that is said to reward those who make it to the end with their greatest desire. As per the outlet, the road is eventually exposed as a magical fiction spun by Billy Maximoff (Joe Locke), and Jen is its sole survivor who still gets what she wanted: the powers that were stolen from her a century ago, by Agatha no less, in the series. Her emotional journey isn't one without humor. In fact, the century of powerless isolation, cast out by her coven, left Jen with a sharp-tongued mistrust of others and a side-eye that could bring you to your knees. But ultimately, she emerges as a compassionate, driven leader of this chosen coven she comes to love, as shown in the "Agatha All Along" mini series, as reported by Variety.

However, her breakthrough came with 'Agatha All Along', for the actress, who got to explore the intertwined threads of comedy and drama with forces of nature like Hahn, Patti LuPone and Aubrey Plaza.
