She described the time spent creating the duet as \"one special night.\"

\"I got to sing with Nick! It was hard living up to my husbands vocals but I closed my eyes and pretended we were onstage singing this song together,\" she wrote. \"I cried a lot, but Rickey guided me through it every step of the way.\"

\"I’m so grateful that I’ll have this song always and that Elvis will too,\" she added.

The news of this track comes after the upcoming Nick Cordero memorial tribute on Broadway On Demand was announced. Family, friends and former co-stars of late Broadway star will honor him in a streamed memorial on Sept. 6 at 7 p.m. ET.
