Barbra Streisand teams up with Mariah Carey and Ariana Grande on new duets album
Barbra Streisand has teamed up with stars including Mariah Carey and Ariana Grande for her new duets album.
The music legend announced The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume Two, a sequel to her 2014 duet album Partners, and revealed the track listing and her special guests on Wednesday.
The 11-track album features duets with Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, James Taylor, Sting, Hozier, Sam Smith, Seal, Josh Groban, Tim McGraw and Laufey.
In addition, Streisand teams up with fellow pop divas Carey and Grande on the track One Heart, One Voice.
"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!" the 83-year-old said in a statement. "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."
The album's first single, The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face with Hozier, was released on Wednesday, and the full record drops on 27 June.
On her 2014 album Partners, the Funny Girl star performed duets with the likes of Michael Bublé, Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel, Lionel Richie and John Legend. Two years later, she released a Broadway-inspired duets album called Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway, in which she sang songs from musicals with actors including Jamie Foxx and Melissa McCartney.
The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume Two comes eight years after Streisand released her last album, 2018's Walls.

Hozier's First No. 1 Mounts A Big Comeback As A Sudden Bestseller
For many years, Hozier's career was defined by one hit single, 'Take Me to Church.' The breakout hit introduced the Irish singer-songwriter to the general public back in 2013, and it became a global sensation. In the years since, Hozier has released several successful albums, but no tune managed to match the popularity of the track that started it all— a t least, not until 2024. Last spring, 'Too Sweet' arrived and instantly became yet another worldwide phenomenon. In the year-plus since it dropped, the Hozier cut has, in many ways, outperformed its predecessor. This week, it even manages to bolt back onto several Billboard rankings, as listeners in the United States can't seem to get enough of the track. This frame, 'Too Sweet' performs especially well in terms of pure purchases, as the single returns to a pair of purchase-only tallies. 'Too Sweet' reenters the Alternative Digital Song Sales chart at No. 10. It's also back on the Rock Digital Song Sales ranking at No. 15. The cut had previously dominated both lists and spent at least 60 weeks on the two rankings. 'Too Sweet' isn't only a bestseller. The track also returns to Billboard's Streaming Songs chart. Notably, while Hozier's cut only appears on genre-specific sales rankings, it manages to find a home on the all-style, all-encompassing Streaming Songs list. The track has spent 48 weeks on that roster, and has already reached the summit. 'Too Sweet' manages to find space on more than half a dozen other Billboard lists this frame. It does appear on the global charts, but performs best in the United States. The smash lives inside the top five on several other lists, such as the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs (No. 2), Hot Rock Songs (No. 1), and Hot Alternative Songs (No. 2) charts. 'Too Sweet' is not Hozier's only charting success in the U.S. at the moment. 'Take Me to Church' holds at No. 20 on the Alternative Streaming Songs ranking. Meanwhile, 'Do I Wanna Know (Live at BBC)' — a cover of the Arctic Monkeys classic — is steady at No. 42 on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs list.
