In August 2018, Lisa Marie released a cover of Elvis’ “Where No One Stands Alone” and used her dad’s archival audio as background vocals.
“I just felt really emotional. It’s never pleasant to sing and cry,” she said during an interview on the U.K.’s Lorraine at the time. “I had to keep my composure, but I felt very connected to him and to the song. I felt very connected to him and to the song.”
She added at the time: “I just felt like a hand came down to me [while I was recording] because I read [the lyrics] and thought, ‘I
