At 83, Barbra Streisand could have stayed in the comfort of nostalgia. Instead, she walked straight into the fire of history and came back with a new kind of anthem.
Love Will Survive is her duet with British soul legend Seal, and it does not sound “retro” or “cute.” It sounds urgent. It was born from The Tattooist of Auschwitz, a Holocaust drama based on a real love story that survived one of the darkest places on earth.
The music comes from Hans Zimmer and his team, with a full orchestra lifting every note.
Love Will Survive now lives on her new duets album, The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume 2, where she stands shoulder to shoulder with giants like Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, Sting, Hozier, Sam Smith, and more.

On the same album, she joins forces with Mariah Carey and Ariana Grande in a rare three generation summit built around harmony, not ego. Co-created with the same producer behind “Love Will Survive,” it feels like the other side of the story: after sorrow, a call for unity.

Before the duet and the star studded album, Love Will Survive lived alone as the end title for The Tattooist of Auschwitz, closing a series about a real couple who held on to love inside a death camp. In that solo version, the orchestra swells around Barbra, but nobody shares the weight of the lyric.
