Posthumous Album of Unheard Kenny Rogers Recordings ‘Life is Like a Song’ Announced, Two New Songs Released

Recordings from Kenny Rogers made between 2008 and 2011 are made available for the first time on new posthumous LP Life Is Like a Song arriving June 2nd. The album will feature which include interpretations of Eric Clapton’s Wonderful Tonight and Lionel Richie’s Goodbye (which was previously released shortly after Rogers passed), plus his much sought-after duet with Dolly Parton, Tell Me That You Love Me.

Two of the album’s ten tracks are available to hear now, Love is a Drug and I Wish It Would Rain.

Wanda Rogers shared: “He would often say that he wanted his songs to be ‘what every man wants to say, and every woman wants to hear. I think there are a lot of those moments on this album. This is a very special record to me and our family because it really tells the story of our life together, and I feel his fans will also relate to it in a big way because it walks the listener through the seasons of life that we all experience in one way or another.”

“This is a very special record to me and our family because it really tells the story of our life together,” she continues, “and I feel his fans will also relate to it in a big way because it walks the listener through the seasons of life that we all experience in one way or another. There is joy, there is love, there is family, there is uncertainty, there is pain, there is faith… it’s emotional and real. This is the kind of music Kenny loved to make.”
